What are the awful things being said about Palin at Obama rallies? |
|
A couple of NPR programs I've listened to have mentioned awful things being said about Sarah Palin at Obama rallies and awful things printed about her on t-shirts. Tonight John McCain stated that Obama supporters are making comments about him that are equivalent to "terrorist" and "kill him." Am I missing something? I know calling her Caribou Barbie and that kind of thing is degrading to women, but it certainly isn't the calls to violence that have been heard at McCain and Palin rallies. When a crowd listening to Obama started to boo McCain, he interrupted them. Am I totally missing something?

1. They are full of shit. They just like to accuse other people of the stuff that they do. |

A bunch of crybabys who enjoy posing as the "underdog".
Yeah, Bush would fix things if only the "liberal media" would let him...

I thought "Moose-alini" was kind of clever. I believe they're referring to the "Sarah Palin is a C**t" t-shirts http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/10/vile-anti-palin.html

Okay, I feel enlightened.
Yeah that's not so cool and not creative, either. I wouldn't wear a t-shirt that said that. It's still not as bad as what's being said about Obama at McCain rallies, but not something to be proud of, either.

9. McCain called his wife a c--t, so it should be ok with him to call his running mate that (sarcasm) |

3. McLoser made that easy last night when his response to attack ads |
|
was that Obama attacked his health policy. I was spitting white wine. The McPalin campaign is one big joke.

5. The "Equivelency" Game... |
|
or as the Repugnicans call it..."they did it, too!!!". It's the lazy corporate media game that if they criticize one candidate they must find something/anything that the other campaign is doing. Good chance is the reporter went to a Camp Gramps spinner and asked about the rallies...now this reporter probably saw all the venim directed at Obama, but since the GOOP mouthpiece makes mention (of course without any fact) that this happens at Obama rallies, too, it's assumed this is true and used in the story.

8. Two things regarding this topic. |
|
First, what exactly is being said at the Obama-Biden rallies that are comparable to "Kill him!", "Terrorist!", "Bomb Obama!", etc.? I remember earlier in the week when people in the audience started to BOO McCain when Obama mentioned him as "my opponent". Obama shut it down almost immediately, telling them "No, we don't need that.... what we need is for you to vote!".
Second, about the T-shirts regarding Palin being a see you enn tee. Umm... Can anyone point to a REAL photo or video that shows people wearing such a shirt at an actual Obama-Biden rally? The only pictures I've seen have been of 4 or 5 people wearing them in a room or somewhere far away from where Obama/Biden are speaking. So, how are Obama and Biden supposed to deal with it if these T-shirt wearers aren't at their rallies?
