KILL OBAMA!
OFF WITH HIS HEAD!
TERRORIST!
We live in a time that has witnessed atrocity’s that rival those of the greatest evil to ever inhabit the human form. We’ve seen people beheaded on television for nothing more than publicity. We’ve seen women stoned to death for falling in love with a man of another religion. We’ve seen young girls raped by thugs masquerading as militants keeping people in line, and we witnessed thousands of innocent people die in the single most horrific attack on this nation ever. Each and every one of us live with the notion that maybe, just maybe a terrorist will plot to blow up a bridge we cross, a train we ride, a building we work at, or store where we shop.
We know these things are real because we’ve seen them up front and personal, but we don’t hide, we don’t crawl into a bunker and pray the bad guys will disappear, we stand up straight and walk out of our homes every day as Americans proud of who we are and most importantly knowing that when confronted by those who would do us harm – our nation harm – or our countrymen harm, we will stand tall and defend ourselves, our families and our neighbors. What we have witnessed in the last week from John McCain and Sarah Palin defies logic, defies reason and most importantly defies every single principle John McCain has stood for in his 72 years on this planet.
On at least three occasions this week McCain or Palin have held rallies where screams of hatred or chants of death to Obama (parapharsed) were hurled from the crowds in loud unmistakable fashion. If you didn’t know better you would think the rally was being held in the streets of Tehran or in Lebanon. But no, these were Americans chanting death to another American. Threats to kill a man,, who like McCain,, believes in his country and wants to be president to serve the greater good of the people.
Amazingly, neither McCain or Palin, halted their prepared speech’s and condemned those hurling the disrespectful remarks aimed at Barack Obama. In fact, the point could and should be made that the candidates themselves in-sighted the very hatred of these people by referring to Barack’s middle name Hussain and continuing to imply that he “pals around with terrorists” an outrageous assertion of such magnitude that it boggles the imagination, it’s just not true, and they know it.
This is not leadership, this is disgusting, it’s so beneath the American people and what we stand for as a nation its a travesty to watch. I’m ashamed of John McCain.
I don’t care what your politics are, I’m serious, if McCain wants to call Obama a “Nigger” or “That One” then fine, but to stand idly by while your opponent, the father of two beautiful children and the husband of a lovely lady is threatened with death by a crowd of supporters you egged on, is not just wrong, but by any standard, UN-AMERICAN. No one knows who the hell Sarah Palin is, but I’d like to know what the hell has happened to John McCain?

Yeah, I heard about this…how awful. What I don’t understand is why it didn’t get more media coverage. The only places you can find any info on these shameful events are in blogs…where are CNN, Times, Newsweek, etc? I think the American people need to see how low McCain and Palin will go to win. These aren’t the kind of people I want representing America
First, Michelle Obama is a hateful and spiteful woman.
People shouting epithets/threats is disgusting but to pretend the same kind of crap doesn’t go on at liberal rallies is dishonest. This isn’t about McCain; this is about tacking Bush and anything else imaginable onto him. Meanwhile, Ayers, Wright, Michelle et al are harmless and Obama is being unfairly characterized by the company he keeps.
Hypocrisy, thy name is maverickwatch.
When I heard that these “Americans” were shouting this…I was NOT proud to be an American. I felt sicken by these attacks and thank you D.G for writing about it.
To the Christian right, the new home grown terrorists. I am really starting to believe that if Christ were to come back today you would be the first to nail him to the cross again with your spitefulness and hatred.
To McCain, shame on you. You should volunteer to give back your medals, because a real hero does not stand by when a fellow American is threatened!
Palin who knew how right you were about being a pitbull with lipstick. Pitbulls when in raged will go into a baby’s crib and kill the infant as easily as a intruded breaking into the house.
If we are going to use dog analogies….I would rather have a german shepard for a vice president, one who is strong enough to protect the country and smart enough to know when to!
