Paging Mr. Godwin

The Pennsylvania GOP is in hot water after an e-mail likening Barack Obama's rise to power to that of Hitler was sent to 75,000 Jewish voters.

Among the co-signers was a former justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court -- Sandra Schultz Newman -- who is either crazy, or (just as likely) didn't read the thing before it went out.

Though I did not receive the e-mail myself, I think I can safely speak for most of the recipients when I say to those involved: "Kindly shove an unlubricated dreidel up your ass."

But just to show there's no hard feelings, Sandy, you're personally invited to my place to watch the election results come in. I'll make the latkes.
