The HATE being whipped up by Palin/McBush scares the hell out of me...
I think Senator Obama will need a lot of protection from now on...

Screams of "Kill Him" and "Treason"


all it takes is one.

1. It happened with JFK too.
Still.. I'm thinking that protection is better
these days.. and Obama will do a great job!

8. No. Somebody needs to arrest her. Incitement to commit murder.

3. Hubby and I were talking about that today. The demagoguery that McPain is dishing out
is unreal. Hubby hadn't heard of the ads that came out a while back.. the one where it said "hang" over Obama's head or the one with the African american men's faces in some sort of smoke. But he had heard about the people yelling out at Palin's speeches. He's quite concerned that some nut is going to assassinate Obama.

4. I'd heard somewhere that people weren't being screened for
weapons at an Obama rally.

This was several months ago, in Texas, I believe.

5. Weapons-screening halted at Obama rally...(remember this?)

Security details at Barack Obama's rally Wednesday stopped screening people for weapons at the front gates more than an hour before the Democratic presidential candidate took the stage at Reunion Arena.

The order to put down the metal detectors and stop checking purses and laptop bags came as a
surprise to several Dallas police officers who said they believed it was a lapse in security

9. They are getting more open and brazan about it too
I found this post on a wingnut discussion board:

Oh Yeah...Biden is a REAL Brainiac, isn't he?

I don't mind doors slammed in my face,but getting in my face just won't do.I have a short fuse and I'm not tactful so this is a problem.It's definitely getting worse.

They are inciting riots, we can, at least LEGALLY VOICE our resentment of her hate-filled persona and dangerous rhetoric.

Saturday Night, be there, Aloha! :party:

20. Yes, we saw what that did with Kerry. I'm writing Comcast.
I was going to get the NHL package, but dammit, we have to stop this pandering.

If you don't answer these shameless attempts for Palin to take over the mantra of "hockey moms" well all be BRANDED as right wing nuts.

Yes, I'M AS MAD AS HELL! :grr: :nuke:

16. It is sickening that McCain and Palin have NOT put a stop to this in their rally....
That speaks volumes for their character...and IMO will be a nail in their coffin to alot of undecideds. It will be my pleasure to send her back to Alaskuh November 5th...then we can sit back and chuckle ourselves when the next time she's in the news for Troopergate or whatever else they decide to wise up and call her on....

I hope this proves to be political suicide for her....

18. I wonder how pissed off the Secret Service is right now
Troops in Iraq aren't the only Americans who put their lives in danger when they go to work every day.

23. Same here.
I watched part of that video (Sidewalk to Nowhere) from PA, and now I'm feeling queasy. The hatred they spewed on that sidewalk wasn't just directed at Obama either. They hate his supporters too. :scared:
