1. I don't know if I can stomach this.
Can we get a narrative so I can prepare myself for getting through this thing?

Thanks! :hi:

2. anyone else see the Palin merchandise ad under the video?
There was a "random" banner ad under the image that said that Palin was "the woman Hillary always wanted to be." Ugh.

3. I worry abut Obama
with people like this out there. There are so many people who are terminally stupid and no amount of information and logic can get through to them.

5. Scary to think what these folks will do when McCain loses. This isn't the same
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 08:14 PM by 54anickel
Republican party that Clinton beat 16 years ago. There are some pretty rough and tumble rednecks that used to be apolitical until Dubya struck a chord with them. McCain's not their type (who'd want to have a beer with him?) and my bet is they'd have gone back to being disinterested in politics if it weren't for Palin. Now they're all worked up and I think Biden nailed it, McCain is playing with fire.

edit for spelling/typing

6. 99% of people there are Fundy Anti Abortion nuts.. thats why they are there
I used to live in Strongsville many moons ago. If my memory serves me, from the video, it looks like they are going into that church on US 42 across from the old Strongsville Middle School. If you look in the crowd, you will see a bunch of fundy ministers milling about. (Thought I saw John Hagee there?) These people can't come right out and say that this is an "Anti-Abortion Rally". The hidden code word here is Sarah Palin. These people are being driven from the pulpit. The other folks there are racist anti-black white-flight morons. That just about makes up the content of this crowd. These are Low-Information Faux News Voters. Not one of them could show you where Eye-Rack is located on a Map, or where Wall St. is located.

7. What is the next logical step at dealing with this crisis?
by crisis, I mean the severe divide between the way of thinking that these people possess and the line of thinking that ivolves logic and reason. I am in no way joking. Is there going to be some sort of revolution between the two sides? These people have been indoctrinated to the concept that the media is against them, yet they have their own media outlets that tell them exactly what they want to hear. This video and the two others I saw today have had me so disturbed all day long. What can be done? It is clear that there is no real way of getting through to them, yet they are a dangerous voting bloc.
Can someone offer up some ideas please?

11. This is my same concern. These people are getting all riled up based on a false premise.
Disliking someone's policies, politics, etc. is one thing. I feel that way about, say Bill Bennet, but I don't think for a second that Bennet is a terrorist, should be killed, beheaded or anything else they've been shouting.

This is beyond policy. This is dangerous. Think about it. What if you really believed that someone who was about to win the presidency was a terrorist. What would you do? You'd be insane with anger. You'd be in the street. You'd be fightin' mad at anyone who supported your believed terrorist.

What if a sherriff, wearing his uniform, stood in front of an audience, say in Flordia, and used language that indicated this man is a terrorist. Now, it's solidified in your mind. The trusted authority is telling you this man is dangerous. What would you do? What would you think? How would you react?

Now, what if you don't have a lot in life? Jobs are leaving, the economy is going bad, and someone tells you that this man is going to destroy your country. What would you think?

McCain, Palin and crew is lighting a match and throwing it in a powderkeg, all because they are behind in the polls. They are inciting violence to win.

8. It's scary
His real question should be, "Why do you support McCain over Obama?"

The answers would have been more interesting.

10. I saw a dead dog split in half on the street going to work yesterday...
One of the worst road kills I've ever seen in LA city proper. In spite of that, I could not help but look a couple of times as I drove by.

Watching this trainwreck of humanity in the video...I had much the same sensation of being unable to turn away.

13. Same Bigots Who Spat on Black College Students in the 60's
Some of those old-timers - they were probably part of the horde that spat on the black college students (Vivian Malone) back in Alabama in the 60's.

14. These people are EXACTLY

The type of idiots that allowed Adolf Hitler to rise.

I know we toss the word around too much, but NAZIS.
