Former TV pitchman J.D. Hayworth said last week that the recall effort of state Senate President Russell Pearce is supported by “the very same socialist thugs who carry swastikas and call ALL conservatives ‘Hitler.'”
We’ve met several supporters of the recall, none of whom were carrying swastikas.
We sent Hayworth an e-mail asking if he’s actually seen a recall supporter carrying a swastika, or if he’s taken a page out of U.S. Senator Jon Kyl’s book and his comment was “not intended to be a factual statement.” He never got back to us.
We figured we’d ask New Times readers: have you ever seen a supporter of the Russell Pearce recall effort carrying a swastika?
