In August 2007, when discussing illegal immigrants, she said on her show, "If you commit a crime while you're here, we should hang you and send your body back to where you came from, and your family should pay for it."
She became infuriated at illegal immigration after she called Comcast and the recording said, "Press 2 for Spanish."
She said at a rally, with West standing by, "Calling illegal immigrants 'undocumented workers' is like calling a drug dealer a pharmacist without a license." She was furious that children of illegal immigrants were educated in public schools and received health care at emergency rooms. "There are people who want to change your way of life, and some of them may be your gardeners," she said.

Conservative South Florida radio host Joyce Kaufman, who briefly served as chief of staff to former Republican Rep. Allen West, said today that she did not believe that the terrorist who killed 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando this weekend targeted the location out of animosity toward gay people, but instead because he knew that club-goers would be unarmed.
How long does he have to be the president before he figures out that what we had happen in Orlando was a terrorist act? Kaufman asked of President Obama, who called the massacre an act of terror and an act of hate.
I dont care if the guy was gay, I dont care if his wife took him there, he launched an attack of terror against the patrons of the Pulse nightclub, Kaufman said. I dont look at them as gay patrons, they are the patrons, they are fellow human beings. It could have been any nightclub in anywhere in any country. When youre crazy like that, the last thing I think youre concerned about is the gender preference of your victims. I just dont believe it. I dont think this was a hate crime, I think this was an act of terrorism, I think he knew he had a group of people who were in a gun-free zone and who dont carry guns for the most part anyway I dont know any gay men who carry.

A group of Florida Islamaphobes, encouraged by a bigoted radio show host, are demanding the resignation of Broward County Sheriff, Scott Israel, for the hiring of Deputy Nezar Hamze, who is a (Gasp!) Muslim.

Rosenthal is not alone in his hatred. He says a rally he held earlier this year in front of the Broward County Sheriffs Office drew a crowd of approximately 50 people; including congressional candidate Joe Kaufman and Danita Kilcullen, founder of the Fort Lauderdale Tea Party.
Joyce Kaufman, the racist radio host whose hateful rhetoric has helped to embolden those who oppose the employment of Hamze, also composed a vicious post on LeoAffairs.com that has been viewed over 70,000 times and is one of the most clicked posts to ever appear on the forum.

The Palm Beach Post is reporting that newly-minted Republican Congressman- elect Allen West has hired South Florida's most rabid talk show host - Joyce Kaufman - to be his chief of staff.
Her qualifications? Apparently none.
She did give West loads of free air time during the campaign. And Kaufman makes Sarah Palin sound like a RINO.
Crowley Political Report found a video from this past July where a little more than six minutes in, Kaufman says - "If ballots don't work bullets will."
