Democrats use Holocaust imagery against Jewish Ohio Senate candidate
Senator Sherrod Brown's (D-Oh) campaign is running an ad against Republican rival Joshua Mandel that accuses Mandel of being the 'candidate of the big lie.' The 'big lie' is a term associated with Nazi propaganda, and Mandel is Jewish.Let's go to the videotape. More after the video (Hat Tip: Jack W).
Brown’s ad does not specifically mention Nazis, but the term “big lie” is still closely identified with them. Earlier this week, John Burton, chairman of the California delegation to the Democrats’ Charlotte convention, was criticized when he compared Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan to the Nazis and referenced the “big lie.”The Senate race in Ohio is too close to call.
“They lie and they don’t care if people think they lie. Joseph Goebbels. It’s the big lie, you keep repeating it,” Burton told the San Francisco Chronicle. He reiterated the point in an interview with ABC: “If you’re not telling the truth, you’re lying. Joseph Goebbels’ concept was the big lie. If you tell it enough, people will think it’s the truth.”
Goebbels was Hitler’s minister of propaganda.
This is not the first time Brown has linked his opponents to Nazis. In March 2011 he publicly apologized after comparing Republican governors pushing union reforms to Hitler and Stalin in a speech on the Senate floor.
