Great job!

So how many people here think Bill Ayers is a sterling example of a fine Aerican? How many would defend or even share his his views on America, on education, on a man's charactor? Here’s a little something to highlight the hypocrisies of the left.

McCain's chances are sinking fast, and now he faces the risk that he will be remembered in this campaign only for his inexcusable hate-mongering.

The level of vitriol is what has me sorta concerned. If people at the actual rallies are screaming things like 'kill him' (even if it's in reference to Bill Ayers, which I don't believe it was), what are the nutters plotting?

They're trying to guard somebody with the charisma of MLK, JFK and RFK combined, and the Republicans are inciting nutjobs and bigots to yell "terrorist" and "bomb Obama!" You didn't think a campaign could get any lower than Swiftboat Veterans for Truth. This rises to the level of fucking CRIMINALITY. Maybe McCain realizes the danger? Do we have any reason to give him that much credit? Try to see the McCain/Palin rabble-rousing sleaze from the point of view of Secret Service personnel covering Obama.
