So let me get this straight:

If you were French, you would have voted for LePen’s party as a protest vote, but what you REALLY would have wanted would have been for Chirac’s party to welcome the LePenists in?

Sorry, but a racist is a racist is a racist, a fascist is a fascist is a fascist, and a nut is a nut is a nut. And none of them are welcome in my foxhole.

Especially the first two (some nuts can be merely benign kooks who insist upon the political equivalent of running with scissors). My father and uncles fought their Nazi ideological progenitors, and one of my uncles died of his wounds.
