The ex-wife of the racist who stormed the U.S. Holocaust Museum described him as an abusive alcoholic whose hatred against Jews and blacks "ate him alive like a cancer."

"It's all he would talk about," the ex-wife said of James von Brunn, 89, who was wounded in a firefight with museum guards.

"When I questioned him, he would get very angry and abusive."

(snip)

"He would talk about what the world would become in 20 or 30 years - that most of the country would be governed by black governors and that the Jewish people owned the media," the ex-wife said.

"That's why I divorced him - because he was eaten alive with a cancer with this matter."

(end snip)




The guard that died is a hero for protecting the people in the museum. My thoughts are with his family.

2. Why shouldn't she?
Do you think she wants ANYONE to think she agrees with that murderer? Or that her son does?

4. Very true
But it is funny to contrast such openness with that of the still-current wives of the publicly disgraced, who we have seen 'stand by their man' while suffering great humiliation.

3. I'd pay good money to read Rush's 3 ex-wives' memoirs. Never happen.
He's got to be shelling out tens of millions to keep them quiet.
