Madonna slings mud at Republican Senator McCain
 The outspoken Madonna has ruffled feathers in the Republican camp of the United States, following her publicly disclosed analogies of John McCain and Adolf Hiltler.
Linking the President hopeful to such insidious characters as Hitler and Zimbabwean President, Robert Mugabe, has sent McCain in a fury.
In her opening night of a current world tour at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium, Madonna had images of McCain, Hitler and Mugabe featured alongside scenes of devastating global issues like global warming.
The 50-year-old Madonna ended the opening song with more soothing images of Al Gore, John Lennon, Mahatma Gandhi and Barack Obama - the democratic Presidential hopeful.
Originally a supporter of Hilary Clinton, Madonna appears to have transferred her allegiance. She has succeeded in completely annoying not only McCain, but his supporters as well.
Senator McCain’s spokesman told reporters, "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."
Other celebrities throwing support behind Obama include, Stevie Wonder, Robert de Niro and Oprah Winfrey.
No stranger to smear tactics himself, McCain has tried to portray Obama as having little substance. One of the Republican’s television advertisements shows images of Obama alongside, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

Madonna will do anything for attention and get away with it. I am surprised that Senator Obama hasn't issued a statement, repudiating her!
It seems every time someone no matter or far flung, the poor Sen. Obama is asked to issue a statement.

I have to give her respect for standing up for what she believes in, whether I agree with her tactics or not. She's american and they believe in freedom of speech and utilize it. HA!

Let me asked this, why is Madonna wrong for doing what she believes in. We support freedom of speech but when a person talks/demonstrate actions that folks dont agree with..folks are in a uproar. Nothing is Wrong with her having her Opinion..let me tell you this, Rudy Guiliani reminds me of Adolf Hitler, so I can understand Madonna.
