The Republican Party has reacted with outrage after Madonna bracketed an image of presidential hopeful John McCain with Adolf Hitler on the opening night of her world tour.

An image of Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe and Global Warming also appeared during a video montage which accompanied the song ‘Get Stupid’.

Tucker Bounds, a spokesperson for McCain’s campaign team, told Fox News that any comparisons are “outrageous, unacceptable and crudely divisive all at the same time.”

Towards the end of the track, images of Beatle John Lennon, former US vice-president Al Gore and current Democratic hopeful Barack Obama appeared to change the tone of Madonna’s message.

Mr Bounds added: "It clearly shows that when it comes to supporting Barack Obama, his fellow worldwide celebrities refuse to consider any smear or attack off limits."

Madonna’s show in Cardiff on Saturday was the first of 27-dates on her world tour, which continues in London next month.

  • Madonna is Sleazy obviously very stupid!!! When a person is so ill informed as she. Why include something so ignorant in her show, as she uses her crude gestures to sell her body of music. I think that she is the fan of all men, including Hitler.

  • Madonna is Classy impeccably extremely smart!!!! She's a person that knows something about everything. That's why she does what she does, I know I'm a fan (female) and she inspires me and millions of women to get up out of bed and work out so we can aspire to the greater good of all (man and) womankind...tootles

  • @Gigwise I'd never heard of him until that announcement so maybe he was right when he said it was "good publicity"!
