2. Jim Crow....
Palin couldn't name Dred Scott.... I really believe that these Repubs don't even THINK of these things or of what minorities in this country have had to endure. They are a non issue to them

3. Corpmedia is breathlessly reporting this same line of bull, too...esp. CNN.
Have they given even HALF this much attention to the MILLIONS of votes suppressed, or the purged voter rolls, or the whistleblowers who explain how the voting machines were used to steal the votes of Dems?

House of Saud who has a controlling block of stock in CNN has no interest in the public knowing the truth about ELECTION FRAUD.

5. McCain also said that Petreaus was the greatest general in history and Palin knows more
about energy than anyone in this country.

6. Funny: two years ago he was saying ACORN was "What makes America special"
Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 11:56 AM by JHB
via BradBlog:

"What makes America special is what's in this room tonight" -- John McCain to ACORN rally, Feb. 2006.
***
But more than just attending the ACORN-sponsored February 2006 rally, ACORN confirms in a statement today that McCain was actually the keynote speaker!

So now, they wonder, why it is that McCain seems to have "lost that loving feeling"?

"It has deeply saddened us to see Senator McCain abandon his historic support for ACORN and our efforts to support the goals of low-income Americans. Maybe it is out of desperation that Senator McCain has forgotten that he was for ACORN before he was against ACORN," noted Bertha Lewis, Chief Organizer of ACORN.

"We expected Senator McCain to support our efforts to give voice to millions of Americans who have never participated in an election before," she continued. "We are surprised at his efforts to vilify an organization that, until recently, he saw as an ally."
