Does Anyone else Find the Incited Rage and Hate From McCain/Palin Frightening?

God forbid something awful happens to Obama after he wins in November, there would be some blood on Mccain/Palin's hands.

When one of your supporters yells, in clear ear shot, in clear English, "HE'S A TERRORIST!" you don't just chuckle and brush it off. You have to have the presence of mind to denounce such talk, or at very least, mention it to someone in the media so that Americans know that you don't condone such talk. However, as shown by his recent strategy, it is clear where John Mccain stands.

The other incidents that have already been discussed here in Wells are also worrisome, to me. I feel like the recent tactics are designed to bring the bigots of the GOP out of the woodwork, and could potentially motivate a nutjob to take action. If Mccain still had an ounce of decency, he wouldn't be employing this whole new "Obama is a terrorist" strategy.

**** John Mccain and Sarah Palin.

Your guy has called the Clintons racist and now Palin. Obama started his political life at this guys house. Spent plenty of time with radicals and now just plays race when confronted. If ANY republican had ties like these guys you would be coming out with pitchforks. The name calling for 8 yrs from the left is too much. I'm a registered Democrat that will not vote for your guy BECAUSE of his associates and socialist ties.

You are so sadly misinformed its pathetic. As for your Democratic Party registration, my guess is you have just been too f'in lazy to get your status changed.

As for the campaign, I don't believe McCain and Palin are racists, just their desperate tactics.

Ronald Reagan was a radical.

McCain/Palin are going to get these idiots so worked up that when Obama does become president, one of them will kill him.

Ironic that the post just before yours did just that, minus the pitchforks. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts regarding G. Gordon Liddy and McCain.

Go for a head shot; they're going to be wearing bulletproof vests. ... Kill the sons of *******."

Libby claims to have been taken grossly out of context.

John Hawkins: Changing directions here, one of the things that people who try to discredit you often bring up is your comment back in 1994, "If the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms insists upon a firefight, give them a firefight. Just remember, they're wearing flak jackets and you're better off shooting for the head." What prompted that comment and other similar ones and do you regret giving a caller that advice? G. Gordon Liddy: Well, no. Because as usual, people remember part of what I said, but not all of what I said. What I did was restate the law. I was talking about a situation in which the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes smashing into a house, doesn't say who they are, and their guns are out, they're shooting, and they're in the wrong place. This has happened time and time again. The ATF has gone in and gotten the wrong guy in the wrong place. The law is that if somebody is shooting at you, using deadly force, the mere fact that they are a law enforcement officer, if they are in the wrong, does not mean you are obliged to allow yourself to be killed so your kinfolk can have a wrongful death action. You are legally entitled to defend yourself and I was speaking of exactly those kind of situations. If you're going to do that, you should know that they're wearing body armor so you should use a head shot. Now all I'm doing is stating the law, but all the nuances in there got left out when the story got repeated.

All those ATF guys will be safe when 0bama is President, though, since nobody will have guns.

How about McCain's ties to these guys?
McCain linked to group in Iran-Contra affair

WASHINGTON — Barack Obama has his William Ayers connection. Now John McCain may have an Iran-Contra connection. In the 1980s, McCain served on the advisory board to the U.S. chapter of an international group linked to ultra-right-wing death squads in Central America.
The U.S. Council for World Freedom aided rebels trying to overthrow the leftist government of Nicaragua. That landed the group in the middle of the Iran-Contra affair and in legal trouble with the Internal Revenue Service, which revoked the charitable organization's tax exemption.
The council created by retired Army Maj. Gen. John Singlaub was the U.S. chapter of the World Anti-Communist League, an international organization linked to former Nazi collaborators and ultra-right-wing death squads in Central America. After setting up the U.S. council, Singlaub served as the international league's chairman.

Washington Wire - WSJ.com : Obama: 'I'm Not Going to Take Your Guns Away'

“If you’ve got a gun in your house, I’m not taking it,’’ Obama said. But the Illinois senator could still see skeptics in the crowd, particularly on the faces of several men at the back of the room.
So he tried again. “Even if I want to take them away, I don’t have the votes in Congress,’’ he said. “This can’t be the reason not to vote for me. Can everyone hear me in the back? I see a couple of sportsmen back there. I’m not going to take away your guns.’’

Why anyone would believe anything that comes out of Sally Palin's mouth is beyond me - but she acts like she is somehow one of the choosen few to lead us and that elceting anyone else will destroy the country.

They are scary people.

Why dont you ask the family of Jack Ryan about dirty tricks and slime. Barry's slung lots of mud in the past, and will do the same again. He learned it from the best.

How delusional can you be? Why are you so afraid of black people? They are Americans too.

Not sure what your point is. Are you actually claiming that the Dems aren't masters of racial fearmongering?

That would be the current Republicans who were once southern Dems.

Please explain how my commentary would demonstrate that I am "so afraid of black people"?

I responded to an idiotic statement inferring that the GOP has a monopoly on racial fearmongering. The Dems play the race card just as often, and in some cases, better, than the GOP. So get off your PC high horse and accept reality.

fear fear fear

culture of fear we have here, folks

fear is what has kept bush in office for 8 years; my goodness, i still can't fathom that

I'm sorry if I'm getting uppity with you.

Your defensiveness is clear evidence of bigotry.

No. Bill Clinton and cronies. Al Gore. John Kerry.

You think these guys didn't push a racial agenda based on fear to black voters?
