Newt tweets about the horrors of Auschwitz, then calls Sotomayor a racist. Classy guy.

There's been a lot of coverage about Newt's nasty, misguided attack on Sotomayor from earlier today. He's pushing the idea that she's a racist. We wrote about Newt in the post below, noting how he launched his "racist" attack on Sotomayor via Twitter. But so far, not a lot has been said about where Newt is while he's tweeting away.

DailyKos diarist Jeffrey Feldman figured out that the good little Catholic boy, Newt, tweeted his hateful message about Sotomayor after he toured the "gas chamber and crematorium at Auschwitz" yesterday. Yes, Newt is in Poland working on a movie about Pope John Paul II. Obviously, Newt was inspired by the setting to spew hatred. Feldman posted a screen capture of Newt's tweets.

The guy is too much. Methinks Newt needs to spend some time in the confessional.

This sad episode just provides further proof that the GOPers have no shame. Politicking from concentration camps. Does it get any worse?
