Comments on: GOP Anger Unleashed At McCain Rallies

Washington Post: Campaign Is At The Center Of An Outpouring Of Raw Emotion Rare In A Presidential Race

For John and his GOP handlers:

INCITE A RIOT - Urging or instigating other persons to riot, but shall not be deemed to mean the mere oral or written (1) advocacy of ideas or (2) expression of belief, not involving advocacy of any act or acts of violence or assertion of the rightness of, or the right to commit, any such act or acts. 18 USC

The only "arab" I''ve noticed in US politics is Suinunu[sp?]-though not Islamic- I know of no Islamics, though the US has as many Islamic background people as Jews ?US voters are confused by the propaganda system.

The anti Bush group is just as bitter-there will be no "one nation" after the election-no matter who wins-two great guys ,running for a change though.

WHY THE AYERS AND WRIGHT SMEARS ON OBAMA DON''T WORK

PART 2 REVEREND WRIGHT

Boy I''m sick of hearing this one. I don''t believe for a second that Obama shares Wright''s anti-American views. I think he stayed at the church because he wanted credibility with the voters who go to the church. Not the smartest thing for him to do, but far less offensive than agreeing with Wright about ridiculous ideas like America causing AIDS in Africa.

Once again on the subject of hypocrisy: Sarah Palin gave a speech THIS YEAR to a group called the Alaskan Independence Party, a group that wants Alaska to SECEDE FROM THE UNION. "Keep up the good work," was one of the things she said to the group. Palin''s husband was a member of this group until 2002.

The AIP founder, Joe Vogler, said this during a 1991 interview: "The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government. And I won''t be buried under their *** flag."

That''s as bad as anything Wright said, and Palin addressed this group, she wasn''t just sitting in the audience.

Once again, I can give Palin the benefit of the doubt and say I don''t think she shares Vogler''s views on America. I just think she''s kinda dumb.

Kudos to McCain by the way for telling his rabid crowd today that Obama is a decent family man who is not an arab and not a man to be afraid of. That took a lot of guts and it restored some respect I had lost for McCain over the last few weeks.

WHY THE AYERS AND WRIGHT SMEARS ON OBAMA DON''T WORK

PART 1 AYERS

Obama served with Ayers on a board for charitable community work. Obama is not a terrorist and does not condone terrorism. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a pinhead. JOHN McCAIN recently said Obama is a decent man and that people should not be afraid of him.

The board that Obama served on with Ayers was organized by a CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN, WALTER ANNENBERG, who was friends with RONALD REAGAN and whose WIFE RECENTLY GAVE AN ENDORSEMENT to the McCAIN CAMPAIGN.

McCain supporters who say the Ayers connection shows bad judgement on Obama''s part are hypocrites. G. Gordon Liddy is a convicted felon associated with the Watergate scandal. As recently as the 90s he had a radio show where he spouted terrorist-like rhetoric about shooting federal agents and building bombs. This man held a FUNDRAISER FOR McCAIN (not a coffee at his house like Ayers did for Obama). And he''s donated thousands of dollars to McCain''s campaign.

Yet I''m willing to give McCain the benefit of the doubt and say I don''t think he has behaved the same way Liddy has. Even though he arguably has a stronger association to Liddy than Obama does to Ayers. McCain seems like a decent, honorable man, well, except for certain aspects of how he''s conducted his presidential campaign.

It is truly dismaying to witness the level of hate inspired by the McCain-Palin campaign. While McCain half-heartedly admonishs his constituents to respect Mr. Obama, he and his Vice-presidential nominee consciously and intentionally fuel the acrimony, rage, and hate. It speaks poorly for the Republican candidates and their respect for the electoral process.
Mr. Obama represents the essence of the American dream in that he has overcome all of the hurdles to his success to reach this prominent point in his life. He is truly a perfect example of what perserverance and hard work can accomplish. Barack Obama is the personification of the "Melting Pot" which has been exalted throughout American history.
Perhaps the Republican candidates should reexamine their motives for creating an atmosphere of hate and start addressing the issues facing this country. It will take unity to put America back on its feet. America deserves an opportunity to decide its future direction without being distracted by intstitutional resort to racist fear tactics to distract it from the tasks that lie ahead.
Our country is facing an economic upheaval that will require strong leadership to quell. Based on the current tactics being employed by the McCain campaign, I wholehearted support Barack Obama''s election as President. He alone possesses the temperment, education, and diplomatic skills necessary to lead American forward!

MCcain is responsable for these rallies. And he will go down in History for doing so. It is an disgrace and a mockery to the World. I do not blame the G.O.P. This man does not have Wisdom.

McCain undermines extremist right wingers

Calling Obama a decent man and

McCain saying Obama is not an Arab

Where does the extreme right turn next

[itdfactsu]

There were shouts of "Nobama" and "Socialist" at the mention of the Democratic presidential nominee.

There were boos,

middle fingers turned up

Typical extreme right wing behavior

Is it true a fair percentage of Republicans are mentally unstable

The true souls of "conservative christians" unmasked by the cold light of fear. There are so few non-WASP "conservative christians." Why? Desperation has now seized their vile, bigotted, racist, hearts, revealing the false prophets within.
JESUS CHRIST NEVER TAUGHT BIGOTRY OR RACISM.
True Christians pray for peace, love, understanding and goodwill among all peoples. Using prayer for football games is not Christian, it''s pagan. Jesus Christ has sent BARACK OBAMA, a TRUE Christian, to expose these Children of Satan who who wish harm to those of different color, culture, or lifestyle. Satan''s minions speaking Satan''s words: ***, ****, Jew-boy, Kike, ****, *********, Slope, ***, *****, ***. Y''all know what I mean. Sarah winks. Your sins are recorded on national TV. Ye shall burn in hell for all eternity.

Ezekial 25:17, "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother''s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."

The Republican Party cares nothing for your welfare, It uses your hatred to get votes. You don''t mean squat to them. True Christian spirit. Satan''s children.

Obama luvers are out of their minds... it shows that sometimes we are just a few election cycles away from civil war part 2. no longer do we vote for presidents based on what they believe and their values... it seems some vote for how a speech is read... or the sounds a speech makes... the average lefty doesn''t have a capitalist approach.. hates the concept and does not reconize ownership rights of those that do have anything of value... the lefties that have money are guilty.. becuase they do not have a compatiable belief system...

John McCain and Sarah Palin, you are playing with fire, and you know it. You are unleashing the monster of American hatred and prejudice, to the peril of all of us. You are doing this in wartime. You are doing this as our economy collapses. You are doing this in a country with a history of assassinations.
Change the atmosphere of your campaign. Talk about the issues at hand. Make your case. But stop stirring up the lunatic fringe of haters, or risk suffering the judgment of history and the loathing of the American people - forever.
We will hold you responsible.

Repubs on the fear mongering McCain/Palin incite

Republican Frank Schaeffer:

John McCain: If your campaign does not stop equating Sen. Barack Obama with terrorism, questioning his patriotism and portraying Mr. Obama as "not one of us," I accuse you of deliberately feeding the most unhinged elements of our society the red meat of hate, and therefore of potentially instigating violence

[chimpyout]

These McSame/Twitty rallies are real freak shows. Sort of like Jerry Springer without fisticuffs on stage (yet).

[mairin27]

No, hell has not frozen over, but a Buckley is backing a Democrat for president.

Christopher Buckley, the son of the late conservative icon William F. Buckley, said Friday he''s decided to back Barack Obama''s White House bid, the first time in his life he will vote Democrat.

The fire in a movie theater crowd represented by talk radio must be forcibly removed from the public air waves.

Only if they can fairly project both sides by having multiple voices on the show should they be permitted to continue to broadcast.

Specifically Rush Limbaugh, Hannity, etc need muzzled until their shows allow equal time to someone who can represent both sides. I''m tired of hearing their monologues of lies, hate and bs and by allowing them to have access to our public airwaves.

[scorpio59er]

Republicans, in case you haven''t figured it out, are like cult members" Impervious to reason, logic and objective facts. They believe what they want and shut out anything that conflicts. They cannot handle the fact that the world is so complicated the nice, neat black & white answers they cling to are just plain stupid. That''s why they are such religious fundamentalists. They need a world that can be explained in the simplest possible terms.

You are a very sad excuse of a woman backward in every single way.... Your lack of originality and intelligence is showing.

When faced with a real question that you can''''t look up in Marion Webster or google you pull a Palin.

You bloviate and bloviate and listen to no one or nothing that does not fit into your narrow little mind and narrow little view. Because you know better than anyone else... Only a fool would think that your constant rants give you any credibility. You are the epitome of moral turpitude and completly devoid of the ability for enlightened thinking
