It's been a high-traffic day over at WakeUpAmerica.com.  That's the website for a new conservative group led by State Sen Andrew Brock (R-Davie) and State Rep Brian Holloway (R-Stokes).  Along with Raleigh Republican Will Head, they launched the group last month as a conservative answer to MoveOn.org.

Today's blog entry, touted by Brock on his Facebook page, featured a very strange (not to say anti-Semitic) graphic.  It's too weird to explain, so check it out for yourself.

I asked Brock via Facebook if he'd made the graphic himself.  He said no, he suspected it was probably from another website, but he'd check with his web editor.

Since then, I've left two messages for Brock, asking to talk about the picture.  I'll let you know what I hear.

UPDATE:  As of 2:55pm, the above graphic was taken off the site, replaced with a Hitler/Obama/Lenin triptych. 

Comments? Drop me a line.
