What has transpired of late in Florida with Palin rallies for the McCain-Palin ticket is absolutely reprehensible. Assailing Barack Obama with vicious lies that evoke responses such at "Kill Him" and "Traitor" is not far-removed from the hate speeches of George Wallace and Goebbels and I would hope that Jewish voters would be absolutely reviled by her actions. Her belief system is antithetical to the teachings of The Talmud and the Bible albeit she considers herself a "Christian." My understanding of the teachings of Christ is that human beings set examples of love and charity by being "lights" not "loudspeakers" with forked tongues." Speak of how you will improve the lives of all citizens regardles of faith, ethnicity, gender, or culture rather than launching hate-filled invective against your opponent. Palin's suggestion of invading Pakistan should send shivers down Jewish spines in Israel and the U.S. There are 43 million Pashtun in Afghanistan (28 million) and Pakistan (15 million) a majority fo whom lean toward and/or outright support the Taliban and both traverse the border between their countries without without restriction AND remember, Pakistan DOES HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS. That is truly frightening as is the total lack of knowledge, education, experience, and compassion that Palin engenders and still she was chosen to run for the second highest office in the nation. Sad, oh so very sad.
As an African-American female, I too find Sarah Palin egregiously offensive; more so as time gets closer to the "finish line". Those who have found her to being "cutesy" might want to reconsider their definition of that word.
Being a black from the Southern part of the U.S., now having residence in NYC, I have an excellent "feel" for not merely racism and racists, and have felt the heat of this scourge of mankind in my lifetime. Those feelings NEVER dissipate from one's soul.
I suspect that were I a person of the Jewish faith, Palin would embody those same characteristics of the accursed Brown shirts during the Hitler reign!
Yes!! Females of her ilk are worse than her [hooded] male conterparts.

Thank you very much for presenting this article to the public.
As I read this comment of yours, I found myself understanding just how McCain could BE this person -- in his "real" life! It's begun to materialize in his political life as well.
Once again, thanx for the message about the horrific pig of a man.
