Charles Barron Loses By Enormous Margin; Demands Recount

In a bit of great news from the great city of Brooklyn, notorious Israel deranger Charles Barron was utterly demolished yesterday in his bid for Congress.

 In the Democratic Primary to fill the House seat in NY-08 being vacated by the retiring Edolphus Towns, Barron was beaten by opponent Hakeem Jeffries by an enormous margin of 72-28.

 Charles Barron made a name for himself with extremist positions, including extreme Israel derangement and antisemitism. He has called Israel "the biggest terrorist in the world" and evidently opposes the very existence of the Jewish state within any borders:
"Should we start with the 1906 Zionist Convention, or in 1914, with the Balfour Declaration? With Menachem Begin, the terrorists, all the wars, you want to discuss Israel becoming a state in 1948 when it should not have?"
Beyond that there has been from Barron the usual tired deranger claptrap about 'genocide' in the Territories, Jews not being real Semites, Mummar Gadhaffi being an "African freedom fighter" and more of that kind of brain dead extremist rhetoric that is splashed across forums for the ignorant from Daily Kos I-P to Mondoweiss.

Almost the entire Democratic establishment weighed in on behalf of Jeffries, but interestingly, Barron was endorsed by the outgoing Representative Towns. He was also endorsed by fellow Israel deranger David Duke.

So, it is with great satisfaction that we read that Barron was so convincingly defeated in this election, in a district which includes much of traditionally Black Brooklyn, a swath from Bedford-Stuyvessant through Ocean Hill and Brownsville. According to this analysis, not only was the total vote a blow-out, but Jeffries won almost every block in the district, including the one where Barron lives.

 In spite of this thorough electoral trouncing, Barron is apparently demanding a recount. And, as can be seen in the picture, wearing his characteristic and disturbing Mao outfit while doing so. Let's hope this closes the book on the political career of this antisemite, a career that has gone on too long already.
