    What about not voting for him because of the creepiness that he can't raise his arms above his shoulders? ;)


    Wow. Unreal.

    I'm not usually one to defend Cincy, but I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

    McCain can't help he's got a bunch of outspoken mouthbreathers voting for him. But he and Palin can be a little more vocal in their opposition to these types at their rallies. It's funny, there are so many people that will vote for McCain for no other reason than they "hate niggers". People that would normally probably never normally vote for the man.


    Not to mention all the God/jesus freaks!!! They make me sick. They might be some of the dumbest people on earth!! McCain is no more Christian than Obama. I can't get over how fucking stupid these people are.

    Why are they stupid? Oh wait, I forgot who I'm typing to. They are stupid because their beliefs don't match yours. My fault.

    i'm all for disagreements but man, i hope you don't complain about mccain and palin supporters spewing hate cause this is just as offensive as what people are saying about obama at those events.

  • Watching the original clip was about as close as my head has ever come to exploding, like that guy in the movie Scanners.

    They are misinformed morons. If you can't see that when watching the videos taken at these rallies, then I feel sorry for you.

    It's not because of their beliefs that I think they are stupid. For all I know their beliefs may be the right one. Their God may be the one true God. But I find it Irritating that they feel they know better than anyone else. And I find it Irritating that they think God wants them to vote for McCain. There are many pro-choicers that strongly believe in God. And there are many people that strongly believe in God that will vote for Obama.

    So you see it's not their belief system that makes me think they are foolish, it's their irrational behavior.

    I'm sure there are plenty of morons on both sides, but I can't help but thinking about rallies in 1930's Germany when I see these people getting all fired up yelling "terrorist" and "kill him". Let me just state that I'm not comparing McCain/Palin or any Republican to the Nazis. I'm just saying that the reactions of the crowd are similar to the reactions of the crowds back then.

    there are several documentaries out there showing the torture practices being committed by american soldiers now - the link to hitler has already been established ...

    There is no defending some of the actions undertaken by this country and our military but we are far from being Nazis. I have yet to see any portion of our government propose a complete elimination of any ethnic group. The only comparison I can see is our government using a horrable event, 9/11, to further their agenda as was done by the Nazi government after the Reichstaff fires except we didn't set out in eliminating an entire continent of Jews.

    does it make a difference that atrocities are done to 200 people vs. 2 million?

    Yes it does. While the torture of prisoners is a disgrace it is not anywhere near genocide.

    well ... some would say the use of depleted uranium may not be genocide - it has implications on an entire populace ...

    in any case - i am comfortable with the comparisons to nazi germany as it pertains to the atrocities committed ...
