McCain is full of shiitte when he alleges he is not trying to smear Obama by raising the raceism and bigotry flags. McCainwould have to be a complete idiot not to have known that Palin's baseless attacks were inciting hatred in people. Evidence of this general knowledge is that just about every crdible news source reported that was the effect. Moreover, anyone who thinks the McCain campaign does not screen every single speech given before the main speaker is living in la la land. Yet, they let cr*p like this go on:



I MEAN WTF

I get that McCain stopped that one idiot, but I submit that was for show and a day late and a dollar short:



I base this on McCain's allowance of the same kind of thing to continue unchallenged other than this one time. When people scream "KILL HIM" at what appears to be tge vast majority of your rallies loud enough to be picked up by the mic. - McCain and Palin certainly can hear that. Yet, they let it slide - they say nothing. They let it slide because it is the last hope they have to cling to. That hope is the bigots and racists whose thoughts that Obama was a Muslim extremist, much less, to use their words, a uppity n*gger, just cannot be the leader of America, which they see as white and Christian and anyone who thinks differently is unAmerican. I was in a rest. last weekend and this table of men in suits in their fifties were calling this "Sambo's Recession" (the thought of a black "Smabo" in the Oval Office sent the world wide markets into a tailspin) and then went on to say that they knew Obama was a Muslim who was funded by Osama bin Laden. These men appeared to be well educated businessmen. I was horrified.

This is a profoundly sad day for McCain, who just a year or so ago, was an honorable man.

Palin, on the other hand, has never had h0nor.
