Comments on: McCain Has Done Nothing To Fuel Racism

National Review Online: Why Is It Suddenly Racist To Treat Obama Just Like The Four White Guys Who Preceded Him?

WAKE UP AMERICA! Do you really think a man with 17 cars is going to care about the 9-5 daily grind? Do you honestly believe a 72 year old person is has the strength to handle people who are willing to blow women and children up? WAKE UP AMERICA! Let this country FINALLY be UNITED WE STAND!!!

In your defense of the Democrats complaining, you justified it by saying: "If they didn''t, we would still have lynchings in the south."

If you know anything about history, you would know that those who committed the lynchings were overwhelmingly Democrats. The south was solid Democrat until the 1960s.

John McCain and Sarah Palin are horrible examples of leadership. If this is what this country has come to, then God help us all.

BTW, McCain and Palin, particularly Palin, ARE fueling hatred and racism at their rallies. Their behavior and words are despicable, disgusting, and vile.

They do nothing to curtail the comments of their supporters at these rallies, in fact, quite the opposite. Sarah Palin seems to revel in it, because she is one of the main inciters of this type of neanderthal behavior.

If there is a God in heaven, McCain/Palin will lose by a landslide.

ok! lets talk racism.....Obama is going to get alot of ewhite votes based on the issues which is ok..BUT...Obama is going to get 99% of the black vote just because he is black..blacks dont care about the issues.,.so who are the real racists? BLACKS!!!

As MartinLuther King said in his speeech: "We don''t want to be judge by the color of out skin but by our character". Today 2008! ask the majority of white people and they will tell you that they judge blacks by their character/attitude not skin color!

blacks want their cake and eat it too..racist!!! absolutely the lowest species on the face of the earth!

the hate pouring out about this election if really scary. How anyone can be so bitter towards any party is my question.Neither is all bad or all good, the government is filled and run by both. This whole campaign is a farce. that these people are the best our country can do speaks magnitudes. There is no quick fixes,there is going to be plenty of suffering no matter who gets in. I hold my own opinions on Obama and Palin....But if either enters the political office,They as our countries represenatives will have my,if not undying,support.

I can''t remember Eugene McCarthy or George McGovern doing or saying anything to tone down their radical supporters. But of course that would spoil the argument of those who say that McCain has not tried hard enough to tone down people at his rallies.

The lead-in on the story did not mention this was written by an NRO sycophant. Not surprised at all. I suppose they would deny racism even exists within the Republican party. McCain is not careful with his words where as his predecessor, GW, was inarticulate. Both men make one pause. One a hothead and the other never seemed to care.

Earth to Jonah, Earth to Jonah. You are a clueless. Really. Have you seen the tapes of the McPalin speeches and their nonreaction to their supporters yelling "kill him" and other words of political "discourse"? I thought not.

To american30. Thank you for the invitation. Yes, we will elect Obama. McPalin is a farce, both of them.

Earth to everyone. What about Palin''s home in Wasilla? Ask McCain if she pulled a Stevens and had her home built and paid for by the contractors who got the bid to construct the famous Wasilla sports center. Me thinks the stink is oozing out. The nice thing about this is that unlike Troopergate, this is a federal felony and she does time. Loverly, loverly.

According to the liberal democrats and their controled media McCain is guilty of racism simply because he is running against Obama.

Talk about telling falsehoods.

No, YOU are the idiot. I did not say that myself --

I was quoting the idiot woman at the McShame rally who was holding the mic and said to McShame that SHE did not trust Obama because he''s SHE THINKS HE''S an Arab.

You are the idiot. Why don''t you learn how to read before you go off on people.
