Check this out


A lot has been made recently about the McCain campaign's attempts to label Obama -- to put questions in the minds of voters. I personally don't see it working, especially not in an election year when the economy is in the tank. But the yelling from the crowd that he's a terrorist, or "kill him" is disturbing. The attacks won't work on independents, I don't think, but they've done serious damage. They've pissed people off (on both sides) and riled up the Republican base to a point that it's scary. It's not scary because they could steal the election, but because someone could do serious harm. Check out the above video if you don't buy it.

These people are extremely scary. I can understand not believing in someone's politics or policies, or even feeling morally opposed. But to continue to believe that Obama is a terrorist simply because of his name? That's ignorance, and it's not blind ignorance, it's dangerous ignorance.
