You see what you want to see, then. Because no rational human being would draw that conclusion, based on the evidence, about Barack Obama.

If you, personally, had ever been the victim of a terrorist attack, I think you might revise your understanding of the word.

Of course, you see a red flag there and would want to be cautious and possibly tell your teen to stop hanging out with them.

You just don't turn the other cheek.
Except that nobody has "seen" Obama "do" anything. That's the McCain/Palin strategy: just throw a bunch of scary "maybes" out there and let the mob draw their own conclusions.

Oh, so you DO believe that McCain is the Manchurian Candidate. There are a lot more "red flags" that might lead us to believe that he was brainwashed and sent to destroy us from within than their are "red flags" that Obama is a terrorist.

Yeah. They're kinda funny that way.

McCain/Palin camp should not tolerate that mob mentality.

When McCAIN asked, "Who is Barack Obama?"

Someone yelled, "Terrorist!"

He should have said, "Terrorist, we don't know. But we know that Barack Obama is not the president of the United States and will not be the president of the United States."

Something to that effect.

When someone said, "Kill him!"

If Palin heard it, she should have said, "Sir, we cannot do that and we will not do or say that. But we will say that we can kill his chance to be the President of the United States."

Something to that effect.

As opposed to the Obama followers who continue to bash on Palins baby, and make up bold faced lies?????
I would say the hardliners on both sides are pretty scary.

I have been trying to figure out why America is in bad shape. I think the US is in bad shape because there are too many dumb people around and they don't even know they are dumb. Take some of these posts here as an example. Obama is a US Senator and a Presidential candidate. Yet, they are people dumb enough to believe in this terrorist lie.

Not even close, pal. No Obama follower has expressed a desire to KILL anybody. Nor have they accused McCain or Palin of being "terrorists."

The hatefulness of the McCain/Palin crowd is frightening. If these two clowns make it into the White House, you'll discover--too late--how feeble McCain is and what a sociopath Sarah Palin really is. And then, you know, even a black man might not looks so bad to you at that point. And PLEASE don't tell me it's not about race. If the McPalin followers are willing to talk themselves into believing that Barack Obama is a friggin' TERRORIST, it's about race.
