Madge: War Hero McCain Is Basically Hitler

Now, usually we love multimedia art and progressive politics, but leave it up to increasingly annoying legend Madonna to combine the two in such a ham-handed, pointy-breasted way that it makes us shake our heads, sigh and reconsider our views on censorship.

Madonna, who turned 50 this month, kicked off her Sticky & Sweet Tour on Saturday night at Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The BBC reported that the two-hour show took a political turn when, in a lead-in to a remixed version of “Like a Prayer,” a video sequence showed flashing images of destruction followed by pictures of Hitler, Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe and then Senator John McCain.

Later, footage of Barack Obama was interspersed among images of Gandhi and John Lennon.
