Madonna is courting controversy once again with a scathing video attacking Republican presidential candidate John McCain in her new "Sticky and Sweet" world tour, which she kicked off in Cardiff, Wales on Saturday night -- and McCain's team is fighting back.

During the Material Mom's performance of the song "Get Stupid," she displays images of global warming, destruction, Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe, Adolf Hitler -- and McCain. Later, she "balances" the video with images of John Lennon, Mahatma Gandhi, Al Gore and Barack Obama.

McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds quickly condemned the incendiary piece on Sunday, saying a statement reported by Fox News, "The comparisons are outrageous, unacceptable and crudely divisive all at the same time. It clearly shows that when it comes to supporting Barack Obama, his fellow worldwide celebrities refuse to consider any smear or attack off limits."

  • Has Madonna ever been to the Holocaust Museum? Has she ever read a book or talked with a survivor? Political affiliations aside, she is sick to compare John McCain to Hitler. It is sad that someone so rich can be so uneducated. Lisa in AZ

  • As an independent, I see McCain as a republican. They really are poor stewards of the earth, which has far reaching ramifications. He does have a dictatorial persona when he speaks. He is known for being ill tempered,
