About them McCain/Palin rallies: there is now some controversey over whether a supporter yelled "kill him!" at the Palin appearance. It appears to be the word of a reporter over the word of a secret service agent. Fair enough.
These quotes, gleaned from an Ohio rally by the outside-the-bubble Al Jazeera news service (presumably keeping that affiliation under their turbans) may be a little more convincing.
“I’m afraid if he wins, the blacks will take over. He’s not a Christian! This is a Christian nation! What is our country gonna end up like?”
“When you got a Negra running for president, you need a first stringer. He’s definitely a second stringer.”
“He seems like a sheep - or a wolf in sheep’s clothing to be honest with you. And I believe Palin - she’s filled with the Holy Spirit, and I believe she’s gonna bring honesty and integrity to the White House.”
“He’s related to a known terrorist, for one.”
“He is friends with a terrorist of this country!”
“He must support terrorists! You know, uh, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck. And that to me is Obama.”
“Just the whole, Muslim thing, and everything, and everybody’s still kinda - a lot of people have forgotten about 9/11, but… I dunno, it’s just kinda… a little unnerving.”
“Obama and his wife, I’m concerned that they could be anti-white. That he might hide that.”
“I don’t like the fact that he thinks us white people are trash… because we’re not!”
I like the "he MUST support terrorists" guy... not only is Obama a Muslim and a terrorist, he is also apparently some kind of crypto-duck.
Hat tip to Prose Before Hos for the transcript AND the footage. If it were just a transcript you could believe they made it up, but now if you want to deny it you have to believe that Al-Jazeera somehow managed to smuggle a dozen or so fake racists into the rally. And if you want to believe that, it's your perogative. It's probably easier to jump through that hoop if you're a global warming denier.
I'm going to try to embed the clip here, but I'm warning you I can't check it from work. If you don't see anything, try the link instead.
