McCain is trying to rein in the hostility of his supporters today, according to this
article today. He calls Obama a “decent man” whom he just “happens to disagree with.”
Is he really afraid of the behavior of his zealous, extremist supporters who call Obama a terrorist and an “Arab?” Or is he just trying to calm the flames of the fire he fueled because he sees that it is not working in the polls? I would assume the latter, since the man is a disgusting pig who could call his own wife a “cunt,” but that’s just my opinion.
When it’s all over, and Obama is president, the extremists are promising to be just as hostile to a Democratic President as they have been to him as the Nominee. These, my friends and fellow bloggers, are the seeds of oppression, division, and the kind of speech you find in years preceding the last centuries most horrific genocides. John McCain has allowed this to happen despite the warning signs. Now he wants to retract and look like the bigger man. What a fool.
John McCain and his party are dangerous people. It shows in their hate speech and in their lies. It shows in the extremists that join their rallies. It shows when a “liberal” church is attacked by a Ditto-head. It shows when our leaders’ lives are threatened and even taken by people who refuse to here facts from more than one source: the right-wing media. People at the McCain/Palin rallies say how they are “scared” of an Obama presidency. What they should be afraid of is themselves.

The Right has taken on a mentality of “if I can’t have it, neither can you…” which is so infantile I find it hard to say without raising the pitch of my voice and giving myself a lisp.
For the past eight years, they’ve been riding high on a Republican oligarchy… now, as America returns, they’re in such disbelief, they’ll do anything to get back on top.
It’s bad in that it may incite violence against Obama and those who support him (which is most of the country). On the bright side, it’s exposing the Right for what they are: brainless ignorants who know no other way than to threaten and scare.

It isn’t over, Luna – we must get the people out to vote and vote in big numbers. That is the only way to ensure an Obama victory. If you can drive people to the polls, drive them – if you can ring people up – ring them, if you can text them – do so.
When the polls close and the votes are counted – an Obama win will be much sweeter if people played a part and not just voted.
McCain is vile! He should not be allowed to be elected!

I’ve been at my school registering young people during lunch hour for weeks now. I’ll be damned if I have to pack up and move to Canada on November 5th (which is what I’ll be trying to do if McCain gets in office), even if they do have better health care!
