That sounds like my house. We decided to elect Orville Redenbacker and stay home.

So far this thread is pretty one sided. I guess I'll continue it that way untill some one adds something from the other side.

Sounds like an excerpt from an Adam Sandler movie script. Very reminiscent of something from Happy Gilmore.

***EDIT*** It turns out that this young woman made a false report. It seems that she is a bonified wingnut. Police suspect she may have mental issues.

Just for you

Obama could be a target for people who reject him on racial grounds alone. The Illinois senator leads Republican rival John McCain in polls ahead of the November 4 election and has a big following in many sections of Americans, from liberals to conservatives, black and white, poor and wealthy.

"Many whites feel they are losing their country right before their eyes," said Mark Potok, who directs the Southern Poverty Law Center that monitors hate groups. "What we are seeing at this moment is the beginning of a real backlash."

Many Americans "see the rise of minority rights, gay rights, women's rights as a threat to the world they grew up in and that their parents grew up in.

"They see jobs disappearing to other countries, and now they see a man who is African American and who will very likely become president of the United States. For some of those people that symbolizes the end of the world as they know it."

100,000 sure votes for McCain

That is the October surprise.
McCain shaves his head, sports a swastika tattoo and works the trailer parks the last week of campaigning.

The liberal media has multiple climaxes, passes out in exctasy and goes off the air.

The plan is brilliant and obviously the work of Karl Rove.

Thank you for your input in this thread. It provides balance to it.

Spreading hate isn't exclusive to white supremacist groups. It's also done every day on broadcast tv to a national audience.

People just don't like my thread I guess. This would have been the perfect thread to post a link to the story about the skin heads who plotted to assainate Obama and kill blacks. The difference is, people here wouldn't praise them like the liberals would praise Obama supporters if they plotted to assainate Palin and kill CEO's. These two skin heads are low life, good for nothing, ignorant peices of trash. I don't think that many would disagree with that assessment.

Well, I'm going to keep posting links to stories that show a contrast of the people who are supporting the two candidates. We need a few more form the McCain supporters who are wreaking hovoc out there.

Give me a break wittom. People here? Are you saying that the liberals (liberals here being anyone that doesn't tow the line) here would praise an attempt on McCain or Palin's life? You did say people here, but if you mean liberals across the country, I'm sure there are conservatives in the US that think these kids had the right idea, remember the KKK is a right wing group. WTF? So are you just talking people here, or people across the country. Like Rush, you make a comparison that doesn't compare.

The KKK is a right wing group? Robert Byrd is a republican?
Maybe my Google has got me going the wrong way, but I don't think that the KKK is right wing.

People here, meaning people on these boards. The liberals, meaning liberals in general.

By liberals, I don't mean to imply anything about not towing the line. I mean the arrogant, elitist, agitating liberals. I think you know who I mean.

I think the reason that the people here are sometimes extreme one way or another is in response to the minorities on both sides , right or left.

Most of us are somewhere in the middle, and we've never marched or heckled.

I can march and heckle at the same time, it's harder than it looks.
