A video from a Palin Rally on Monday-scarry stuff

[minibrings]

I hope Miss Palin did not hear any of this crap. At least when John encountered that woman who called Obama an Arab, John grabbed the microphone away from the woman and corrected her.

Wow. That video reminds me of the Alaska forum if you dare criticize the tawdry little queen there.

I never ran into anybody like these people in the video before.

I guess I am ignorant to people who's family tree looks like a stump.

I didn't laugh - at first. I was much too taken aback, couldn't quite believe what I was hearing............then I had visions: Run for the hills! The blacks are taking over! Slowly I began to chuckle......

I live in Texas and know quite a few people who think like this. And, for the most part, they're truly good-hearted people who would give you the shirt off their back.

But the Republicans always use fear to garner votes (Willy Horton, Star Wars missile defense, Terrorists on every corner) and fear is a powerful motivator.

In fact, look at how many of the pro-McCain posts talk about fear. They're scared of everything--terrorists, socialism, blacks taking over, having their gones taken away--the world is one big bogeyman to them. Very, very few of the posts talk about why McCain would be a better leader. It's always that they're just afraid of Obama.

Here is a video from a Palin rally held on Monday. This is not for the weak hearted liberals as it will make them cry.

What would you do if you ran across somebody of this caliber?

That didn't make me cry, it made me laugh. Just goes to show there's still PLENTY of ignorant & uneducated people out there. I don't even feel sorry for them, although I do feel sorry for their children. Hate begets hate, it's pretty pathetic that they're carrying that on to their kids. I weep for the small minds of the country.
