I'm sure by now you have heard the almost (almost) unbelievable rants by McCain-Palin supporters at their rallies. All you would have to do is youtube for a mere three seconds and you would find dozens of video interviews and shots of McCain-Palin supporters both shouting and saying some extreme things. Some call Obama a terrorist, other call him a commie or an Arab. Some bring toy monkeys with Obama stickers on them. Others say that he wants to ruin the country and that he is Muslim. Others even say that he should be killed or hanged. Some pretty crazy allegations. John McCain tried to make it look like he condemned these acts, by telling some crazy supporters that they should not be afraid of an Obama presidency, and one crazy now famous woman that he is not an Arab. The crowds reaction was to boo him. The extremism and hate that show up in these crowds both during the rallies and while they are standing in line, is almost unbelievable.
You wonder; how can these people seriously believe these things? How can they seriously believe every email that they get that claims that Senator Barack Obama attended a radical Muslim school? That he voted to condemn infants that survived botched abortions? That he voted to teach kindergartners sexual education? Have these people never opened a newspaper? Have they only watched FOX news and nothing else? It's astonishing.
But then you sit back, and look at how John McCain and Sarah Palin have been running their campaign as their last days fade away into desperation. Instead of talking about the issues, they instead decide to send out millions of misleading mailers that call Obama unpatriotic. They release several robocalls that say Barack Obama is friends with terrorists. They create ads that saying that he has ties to domestic terrorists and voted against our troops. On the campaign stump Sarah Palin says that Obama "pals around with terrorists" and that he sees our country differently. All of these ads, robocalls, mailers, speeches and especially the TV interviews by McCain, Palin and their fellow republican surrogates, are simply to instill fear in the American people. It's their last act of desperation, instead of talking about the issues, they want to paint Senator Barack Obama as an outsider, as too dangerous of a choice, as a terrorist.
The McCain-Palin campaign is the machine behind these hate full and ignorant rants and reactions at their rallies. They are inciting them. John McCain condemns the robocalls that smeared him in his bid in South Carolina, yet hires the same company to do the same to Barack Obama. They are running nearly 100% negative ads, and continuing misleading and already disproved statements at their rallies and interviews.
The reason that you see this ridiculousness in the McCain-Palin supporters, is because the McCain-Palin campaign are running one of the dirtiest and most dishonest campaigns in recent history. Don't be shocked with the McCain-Palin supporters, be disgusted with the McCain-Palin campaign.
