MCCAIN IS ENCOURAGING AN ATTACK ON OBAMA

Just watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itEucdhf4Us

These people actually believe now that Obama, a U.S. Senator, is a terrorist.

McCain is doing something extremely dangerous by dehumanizing Obama into a Terrorist, one of the worst things you can accuse someone of today.

One of these people will be happy to do the evil deed and McCain/Palin know it. They KNOW IT.

I've seen some of their recent rallies on YouTube and listened on the radio... it is very disturbing how they are winding these people's frustration up into inhuman hatred.

They are encouraging this inhuman hatred of a great American who is also a beautiful human being.

The GOP, DNC, Congress, Secret Service, SOMEBODY, PLEASE, SOMEBODY! SHUT DOWN THEIR CAMPAIGN OF HATRED! PLEASE before someone is hurt!

McCain/Palin are promoting HATE...pure and simple....they know what they are doing....I can only pray...and I do every day...for the Safety of Barack and Biden and their supporters....

I'm more worried about Obama staffers and volunteers right now. The people a crazy person can easily get to.

least tripled compared to past elections.

Go contact the Secret Service. Go to their website. I've done it. Why don't you?

But it would be much more effective for a large organization (GOP, DNC, Congress, Secret Service, etc) to shut them down.

I am so scared.

Law Enforcement, from ALL branches, need to let it be known via

television, radio and print media, that any and all threats, be it verbal or written, toward a presidential candidate will NOT be tolerated. Of course I'm talking about Obama, but "the other one" needs to be included for the sake of balance. This is serious people, M and P are inciting some very dangerous, mentally handicapped people to the extreme. Barack's security people are the best, we know that, but let's face it, they can't be everywhere at all times.

A severe warning of serious consequences to threats of any nature may help to stem this. It's outrageous and totally unacceptable. What say ye?????

I was pretty much thinking the same since the beginning of this, but couldn't express it like you did.

There are LAWS and they MUST APPLY.

Thanks

ass about this too.

up the very worst in some people. I think we NEED to be talking about this, and bring this up a lot. And pinning it squarely on mcsame/failin'. This is potentially horrifying stuff. They're playing with fire.

I am nervous and worried. Because you never know if a tim mcveigh or even a mark david chapman or some other unbalanced individual is within earshot. Good Lord. This is SO COMPLETELY selfish, reckless, thoughtless, vicious, and, in itself, terroristic.

This is how they put "Country First"?

They were asked if a person should pay for their own rape kits? I heard "she should die", "she should pay double". Obama is a terrorist and a muslim and go home! As an african american, I am really really sick about this. How disgusting!

McCain is the antithesis of what we need right now. He spreads fear and hate about a fellow American, a fellow Senator, who has earned a great deal of respect. We're in for a rough several years. We are going to have enough to deal with, and we don't need a hateful fearmonger in the White House. If he does this to someone as peaceful as Obama, WTF is he going to do with someone like Putin or Ahmedinejad? I shudder to think. Why isn't the MSM questioning this man's honor? His fitness to lead? His very judgement? He and his fascist followers will destroy this country within a couple years. We need an FDR with a suntan right now. Not a fucking Hitler.

omg, I'm speechless

And race relations will be set back 50 years.

losing his life or his family. McCain/Palin are whipping the nutjobs into a frenzy of hate. More than a few of those nutjobs probably have an array of weapons in their houses. I am sending as much positive, loving, protective energy out into the universe as I can muster.

You will unlock the gates of hell if you touch one hair on his head.

NOT. ONE. HAIR.

Absolutely.

and I like your tagline
"kitty fixer since 1982!

Satan is coming to breakfast, and he won't be beaten back easily.

America will burn to the ground if any member of the Obama family is touched. That's not a threat it's reality.

we all lose. A nation divided cannot stand.

except to add to the gene pool... Seriously, this is really bad, and shameful, and I don't want people like this to multiply. Their ignorance breeds hate- even in your comment. How to avoid violence with a bunch of stupid assholes who are being encouraged to hate, well that's the question.

Not one of them looked like they could actually hold a real conversation. It WAS the sidewalk to nowhere.

The fact that they are missing a chromosome makes them much more dangerous.
They are simple and easily swayed and inflamed, and that shit spreads through their population like wildfire. The fact that they can't generate a simple thought or coherent sentence tells me they are more likely to resort to physical action.

foaming at the mouth, are the same types that went around assassinating physicians who performed abortions.
They are inciting hatred and violence. I fervently hope that it backfires, big time, on them.

To all it may concern:

On behalf of many other Americans, I would like to request that you investigate Governor Sarah Palin and Senator John McCain in light of recent events at their campaigns. By insinuating that Senator Barack Obama, who is already a potential target due to his skin color and name, is a terrorist, or a friend of terrorists, they are putting his life at risk. Already, some of their supporters have shouted things such as "Kill him!" and "Off with his head!" in response to their accusations, and neither McCain or Palin took any action to denounce them. I believe that McCain and Palin are fully aware of the potential effects of their words and are acting in a dangerous, irresponsible manner. They need to be warned of the effects of this manner of campaigning, which is creating borderline lynch mob situations.

got to have a scapegoat when the economy is in the shitter - so instead of getting riled and going after the mcCain's, he is directing them to Obama instead.

I do hope the law has something to say about this. This is really terrible - I can't believe that this kind of talk would be allowed against any repug.

That there needs to be an intervention, a censure, whatever. That he is out there calling a sitting US Senator a terrorist and whipping the whackos into a frenzy and who knows what could happen.

When none of them are at work?

They beat Hillary up over her RFK comment, but now that one of the candidates is really inciting violence against Obama, they're silent or trying to play it down. Ugh.

Maybe people will believe me now when I tell them there is a big difference between September GOP owned media & October GOP media media.

"What sluggards, what cowards have I brought up in my court, who care nothing for their allegiance to their lord. Who will rid me of this meddlesome priest."

The king's exact words have been lost to history but his outrage inspired four knights to sail to England to rid the realm of this annoying prelate.

get published. Call local radio stations if you can stomach it.

I don't think even Obama can convince me that those people can be saved. The only good thing about that was that most of them appeared to be 50 and over. Sort of confirms the idea that these kind of people are fading out of our culture. Wish I was going to be here to see it after they're gone.

The sad thing is that this was before TV was pervasive so it shocked the people to finally see McCarthy on his rants on TV rather than reading about it in the newspapers but now, it's completely "acceptable" for a US Senator to act this way.

It's a witch hunt for a bogeyman that doesn't exist.

Why don't people ever learn? I'm just so sad and exhausted by all of this.

These people are disturbing

Or were they merely auditioning for Fred and the Phelps gang? :puke:

bleh........

And M & P are the Nazi cheerleaders.

What can we expect when we have those vial foul mouthed bottom of the barrel hosts that air this hatred daily across the airwaves via the radio and TV? It's just a shock to see them all in one place but these outbursts and statements are spoken every minute of every hour of every day all across our land. Fear is the factor. Fear of EVERYTHING........the shrub had alot to do with that and McKKKain and Failin know what buttons to push. They will not stop and it's going to escalate beyond what I think even they imagine. How many americans still believe that Saddam was involved in nine eleven?.......etc. These minds are too far gone. I only hope that they are still in the minority when it comes down to the election.

they are more like the original Nazis, with ties to militia and perhaps the military itself. We need to keep an eye on them because once they go ballistic, they may really go "ballistic".

telling them that the hate mongering is hurting all of us (and their party -- both are repubs) and asked them to voice their distaste for this dirty campaigning that incites violence.

and that lying tart he's running with is no different.

Did you see the guy today in WI at that "town hall" Nazi rally ask McCain, in all seriousness, "how did Obama get here? Why is he here?" As if, how did we allow this black man to be in the position to WIN? BECAUSE HE'S AN ELECTED SENATOR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, you fascist pig, and people VOTED FOR HIM. Because he's the ELECTED NOMINEE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, you imbecilic freak of nature. WTF!

These fucking assholes are proof. Can they be educated?

I seriously doubt some of them can, as they're just old and stupid and hate what they don't understand (that sure leaves a lot), but they'll go to a tractor pull, alright, won't they?

Can they be educated? I seriously doubt it too. Their hatred is based on self-loathing, deep feelings of inadequacy, and fear, and that's a mighty powerful combination to overcome.

marries the ex-prostitute and tries to clean up the gene pool. That's where I'd start hoping for good natural selection to take hold!

These idiots have been "conditioned". Maybe if we weren't trying to figure out how to survive the economic conditions, someone could identify and work on re-conditioning.

and put a stop to this before it's too late.

I got these two quotes off of dailykos via DU and starlightnews..
This is what needs to done.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/10/9/204719/724/789/...
"Needless to say, this is a huge story, folks. We need to jump on this story fast and strong as an antidote to the Palin demagoguery that has crossed the lines of racism and hate mongering.


http://www.starlightnews.com
"Meanwhile, it is time to start using the term “demagogue” to describe McPalin, and compare their rallies to Nazi rallies, for that is what they are doing, whipping up people to hatred and possibly violence. This is the McCain version of Country First."

OTHER SUGGESTIONS:

DROP DRUDGE A "STORY" - WHY NOT? Hint: Keating 5!

Apperently these people's robes and hoods must've been at the dry cleaners yesterday.

I love videos like this.

These are some nasty people. LMMFAO.

If godforbid the most unimaginable thing happens -

I will blame Palin for encouraging hatred and rage towards Obama.

I hope one day I have the opportunity to spit in her face.

watching that. It had my stomach in a knot. Yeah, I'll contact whoever needs to be contacted - Congressional people too. That is horrible.

And he has certainly confirmed that by his dishonorable actions. He and his religious nitwit, Palin, are putting the last nails into the Republican Coffin. Good riddance to a party that beginning with Nixon has sliding down the path into complete degeneracy.
