- I can honestly say I am quite ashamed of the attitudes and public display of a few.
The good news is that we as a Nation and a people are capable to pick up the pieces and get back on the right track but it might take a little time for healing - Reply to this comment
- Shame on you, the select Racist few for causing such a stir in what could have been the best example of a successful election in-progress.
I cannot put the entire blame on the Republicans, however, if you all will take a moment to think back, it really started during the earlier season within the Democratic Party. They all tried to use the race card and other scare attics to do the same thing. The only thing new is the insertion of socialist and terrorist. Again it is so sad to let so much progress as a Nation go to the way-side.

- I have read some amazing comments posted by many of you and I must admit it is quite surprising how many people are willing to pass judgment without basing them on fact.
It is unfortunate that Hank Williams Jr. made those ridiculous outbursts during an official campaign outing with the Republican candidates but his racist attitude is nothing new. If you listen closely to some of his prior recordings, lots of them have the underlying overtones of racial segregation. Guess he is still a bit upset that the South lost the Civil War or something, who knows?
The truth is that the story about Obama not placing his hand over his heart during the playing of the National Anthem is not true. The actual song that was being played was America the Beautiful and there is no requirement to place your hands over your heart or to stand in attention for the tune
And in case you did not know, this election is being followed by nearly every country in the world. It is a crying shame that the rest of the world now knows what many of us right here at home have known for quite some time that America''s racial past is really not past, It%u2019s STILL HERE! - Reply to this comment

- Hank William Jr? I remember a concert of his back in the 80s and all his fans high on pot. I left the concert. Hey, hey Palin, palling around with a redneck, backwater, jerk like Jr.
Isn''t interesting that because he doesn''t agree with Obama, that he makes an accusation like some third grader mentality? - Reply to this comment
- Hank Williams Jr. is a drug addict and an alcoholic, why would anyone give any credibility to this guy.

It is intresting. If someone talks anything against Obama, the person is not credible or racist. The only credible person right according to you libs is Obama, and only Obama. But when Obama pulls the race card like currency bills, oh he is so right.
Joe - not credible. Has no plumber license
Hank Williams - a drunkard
Sarah Palin - dumb blonde
all other republicans - are racists
Democrats - think tanks
Liberals - know everything and what they think is correct
You stupid drunked donuts. How I wish Republicans win tomorrow and send you guys back to your bunkers - continue your known talent defaming Palin every day. Democrats are jobless idiots who are angry on everything that normal people (conservatives) do.
All that your media folks have on their plates are scoops on Repubicans - that when I see feel like Puke - Reply to this comment
- If Williams were an accomplished musician instead of a bumpkin,he would have liked a better choice in the 1930s than the Banner-Am the Beautiful is much better.
