(Another) Craziest Republican of the Day: Kristia Cavere

By Michael J.W. Stickings

You've probably never heard of Ms. Cavere. I hadn't either, until this.

She's a Republican candidate (and Tea Party favourite) for New York's 19th Congressional District, currently held by Democrat John Hall. On Twitter, she describes herself as a "Proud American, Christian, Conservative, Republican, Writer, Equestrian." Good times.

Basically, she's just the sort of ignorant teabagging extremist we've come to expect from the GOP. And, it would appear, she's a moron. As The Albany Project reported over the weekend, she recently said this:

The Republicans are the ones who liberated Europe in World War II.

Interesting. I had no idea that FDR was a Republican, and that the Republican Party wasn't a party of isolationism (and fascism), a party that, in wanting to stay out of the war (or to side with Germany), appeased Hitler (among other anti-freedom types), and that all those who landed on the beaches, all those who gaves their lives, were Republican.

Thanks for clearing that up, Ms. Cavere. Now please crawl back under that rock whence you came. Those of us who live in the real world have no need for your truth-denying nonsense (which, of course, makes you a great fit in the GOP).
