McCain and Republicans - No Longer Closet Racists..............
Edited on Mon Oct-06-08 03:15 PM by firedupdem
After hearing them charge up their base with racist rhetoric until they got the desired result....people yelling "kill him" and "lynch Him". I have no respect for them and never will.

Think the media will cover this?

edited to add that link. The other incident was shown live on MSNBC...I'm hoping video will follow.

1. The McCain campaign is inciting violence.
He should be arrested.

2. Where did this happen exactly? What were the circumstances?
That is a fairly serious charge.

5. Yes, but they are trying to lure Democrats into bringing up race.
Hopefully the Obama campaign won't fall for it.

7. We can't do anything without VIDEO.
Just echochambering it around here won't do anything, but we can push the media HARD if we have videos of this happening.

9. edited to add link from Palin campaign...I'm sure that the MSNBC
rally that I saw will be on video soon. As soon as it is, I will be contacting as many of the MSM as I can. This is reckless behavior.

14. Not that it's an equal comparison, but during a performance by Lewis Black in Boston...
.... Mr. Black invited the audience to express their opinions of Bush.

One person in the audience yelled, "Kill him!"

The audience went into stunned silence.

And then Lewis Black asked, "Do you people keep that man in some kind of cage?"

Did any of the Palinazis correct the man yelling "Kill Him!" about Obama the way Lewis Black corrected the man who yelled "Kill Him!" about Bush?

17. Taken in context, "kill him" was directed at Ayers. Disturbing, but hardly racist.
And no one said "lynch him". These Republican assholes will provide enough objectionable bullshit all by themselves without our needing to fabricate any.
