Tabloid’s Praise Irks Chenoweth Racist Newspaper Again Praises Congresswoman

U.S. Rep. Helen Chenoweth was outraged Wednesday to learn she had been lauded a second time by a white-supremacist newspaper.

“I repudiate the racist agenda and want absolutely nothing to do with organizations that forward such an agenda,” Chenoweth said Wednesday in response to an issue of the racist tabloid “The Truth At Last.”

The paper praised Chenoweth’s statements about the militia movement.

“She is certainly a better example of a woman political leader than the frumpy, whiny liberals like Patricia Schroeder or Jews like Dianne Feinstein,” wrote the Marietta, Ga.-based tabloid.

It is headed by Edward R. Fields, a former Ku Klux Klan official and a speaker at the 1986 Aryan Nations Congress near Hayden Lake. The issue that includes the Chenoweth article is filled with stories like, “Special Tax Breaks for Jews,” “How Jews Seized Disney and Time,” and “Clinton’s Newest Jewish Commissars Over America.”

Chenoweth was particularly upset about the repeated use of a photograph of her waving cheerily to supporters. She has said the image could be viewed as a Nazi salute.

The first time the paper featured Chenoweth, it pointed to her election as proof “that a race-based campaign is a winner.” The tabloid cited Chenoweth’s campaign comment that white Anglo-Saxon males are an endangered species.

Chenoweth has stuck by the comment, but repudiated the racist paper and its claims.

The latest article praises her for criticizing the federal government and refusing to condemn militias.
