    My daughter just heard them yelling "commy faggots" in this video and started yelling the same thing at her Boots the Monkey doll. :eek:

    These people are fucking shameful. I would be embarrassed to be aligned with them in any way. (Actually, I am embarrassed to be an American when I see stuff like this.)

    The HATE, IGNORANCE, RACISM in those eyes is horrifying. It's rather disturbing, this goes way beyond party lines and elections; this is a war to these people.

    It's scary to think of how volatile they will be after Obama wins.

    It's only going to get uglier. Maybe the ignorant racists will riot.
  • Obama and McCain agree on so many things... I don't see what the problem is.

    I guess that's the true definition of ignorant stupidity.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    It IS horrifying. But I must believe, I truly believe, that this type of behavior is in the minority of people, NOT the majority.

    Of course it is the minority, but it is a very vocal minority, and both McCain and Palin have a responsibility to at least say something to curb these mobs. The fact is they're inciting them and standing back when it happens. Shameful.

    ok...the guy in the mirror agrees with me 100 percent.

    and you didn't say "simon says"


    So, you think it's OK to generalize and call a large group of people stupid? Seriously, re-read what some of these people said. They were upset at how these folks in the video responded regarding Obama (that's fine)... then they come on here and call ALL people who support McCain stupid.

    Pot... please meet kettle.

    Grant you I don't care for Obama or McCain but I certainly don't hate the guy or think he's evil with evil intent. I do believe he's too much like King George but maybe King George will in force Marshall Law and keep himself in power then we won't need to worry about Obama being a terriost becoming President.

    Maybe these folks would rather have that instead.

    I stand by my comment...

    those people are stupid, and let me add ignorant, uninformed, hateful, and short-sighted....

    Perhaps you should step away from the mirror for a minute and re-watch this video.

    I mean REALLY WATCH THIS VIDEO.

    Do you not see a problem with the people in this video?

    Do you think that possibly the fire is being fanned here a little bit by the man on the soapbox?

    I don't recall anyone at an Obama rally yelling for McCain to be "Killed" or calling McCain a "Terrorist".

    It's pretty evident that there is one side here that is taking things TOO FAR.

    This is just not true. Where in this thread did anyone extend this to all McCain supporters? People made a point of stating that it was a minority, albeit a vocal one. If you could show me the example in this thread where they extended it to all McCain supporters, I'll stand corrected.

    First, I do not condone anything done or said in the video. That said, my point was about people here... in this place... calling people stupid ect. IMHO your stooping to the level you were just criticizing people for. It doesn't make sense.

    I think if you had a camera at a DNC rally and had some one walking up to people asking similar questions (except the other way) you'd get some off-the-wall answers too. Try to be objective.

    What responses do you think you'd find at an Obama rally about McCain would be equally reprehensible? And you think they'd be equally prominent? And if such terrible things are being said, why are they not on the TV? In the blogs? Etc...is it just the Liberal Media rearing it's head yet again?

    what i don't get is that no one in the mccain/palin camp has done or said anything to even try to distance themselves from this. they say "oh, we didn't hear that" but obviously someone did when it is brought up on tv and in news stories. are you saying NO ONE in the mccain/palin camp has 30 seconds to watch/listen to the video where someone yells out "terrorist" or "kill him"?

    ** edit - i can't see the video at work, but i can only imagine **

    The one I really directed this comment at, has since edited their original response.

    That said, the OP's first comments were:

    ****this video sheds some light on the intellect of McPalin supporters....

    ****here's another example of typical mchate supporters...

    -you may disagree, but I would call both of those statements a large-scale generalization at best.

    it'll be intersting to see if someone, anyone in the media asks McCain about the people asking questions at his town hall ..

    some guy yesterday got up and asked, essentially, why McCain's losing to a socialist ... kind of a funny question when you take a read of McCain's government buy back plan of mortgages ... letting banks off the hook and making the American taxpayers take the loss ...
