Look, don't you get it? How old are you? Did you live the in the 1960's when all our leaders were assassinated? Do you remember it, do you now who George Wallace is? Do you know what he did?

Violence is where John McCain's dishonorable campaign ends, that is where all these things. I am not predicting it, and I certainly don't want to expect it, but I remember things that happened in the 1960's. Our nation was not better off for allowing politicians to sow the seeds of hate? Did Emmett Till deserve to be hung? Do you know when the last lynching was? 1980. Do you know who Medgar Evars was? Do your rememeber who James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner were?

Do you know what happened to Rep John Lewis? Do you now see why we are worried. Do you think we want that to happen, do we need another national tragedy? John McCain and Trophy VP are sowing the seeds of hate, and those folks who are afraid of people who are different than they are attend his rallies, they believe lies about a Presidential Candidate, facts be damned.

Barack Obama is a politician, he has no more ties to idiots than John McCain has, although McCain probably has more since he is about 150 years old. I expect politicians to be just that politicians. I don't expect them to save my life and I don't expect them to follow them blinding into a no-mans land. I want the Democratic Party to say, yes we believe in gay marriage! Why because we do, I think my gay friends should have every right to be married. Straight people haven't proven to be that good at is, is it 1 out of every 2 marriages that end in divorce? No matter what you say, no matter how you frame it, the Republicans are done, they have more bad associations than any other party and on top of it all they have proven themselves unable to govern. In fact, they suck at it, because they fundamentally don't believe in government. So this year we are going to change that, and hire a reasonable man who is smart.

(Bill) Ayers and Obama ran a radical education foundation together." John McCain on Thursday, October 9th, 2008 in a Web ad

Not a radical group, and Ayers didn't run it

Thanks Politifact!

But I suppose you have reason not to trust politifact too.

And to answer your last question, Yes I do think they are doing just that. Before MLK was killed, there was a frenzied right trying to paint the man as a communist. It wasn't pretty, it lead to an atmosphere of hatred and fear around him. What happened to him readerreader? I remember. I remember the fear and I remember the hatred.

John McCain and trophy vp are sowing the seeds of hate. We all saw it, and they are lying, just to win an election. If something happens to Sen. O it is on John McCain's head. He will have to live with that.

What no comment on the politifact article? Only about Trophy VP, which isn't like calling someone a terrorist is it, it is a comment on Sen, McCain, who now has a trophy vp to go with his trophy wife. What about the politifact article? Hmm, they say Sen. McCain owes the entire board an apology? He says they pal around with terrorist.

And you say you don't believe the McCain campaign is stoking the fear of crazies? Then why try to paint Sen. Obama as a terrorist? Are you kidding? I asked you once before, were you around in the 60's? Or were you not yet born, because if that is the case you have no experience in living what happened. YOu don't remember what a divided nation we were.

And then there is this: Jeffery Goldberg, Atlantic Magazine:

In the months before Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated, he was the target of numerous vitriolic demonstrations, during which he was labeled a liar, a traitor, and a coddler of terrorists. Bibi Netanyahu, his opponent at the time, did little, or nothing, to tamp down the anger of the crowds. We know how that story ended. Those demonstrations, and the anger hurled at Rabin, created the climate for what might be considered the worst day in Israeli history, and one from which the country has not recovered.

John McCain did the right thing by calling out demonstrators and defending Barack Obama's decency last week. But we should see that continually. And Sen. McCain, how about instructing your running mate on the fundamentals of decency as well? I'm not suggesting something terrible is in the offing. But the anger of these crowds is a dangerous thing to democracy. Thank God, if nothing else, for the United States Secret Service.</>

I'd completely forgotten about the Tennessee incident. It certainly does tell us something about sowing the seeds of hate.

That report also shows Todd Palin had some power that isn't relegated to a spouse of an executive. Let's say I was in charge of IBM, and my husband had meetings in my office with underlings about an ex-relative who peripherally worked for IBM, and he was trying to get him fired. I believe I would then not have my job!

Todd Palin felt as though he had the power to command public employees to come to the office of the Gov. Meet with him at a table and he could harass them over a family issue. If Sarah Palin did become VP what would Todd Palin do?
