Florida Palin Rally's Introductory Speaker Drops A "Hussein" Bomb

CBS:

Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott took the stage moments ago as one of the introductory speakers at a rally here for Sarah Palin. After delivering brief remarks in support of Palin, Sheriff Scott flipped the switch and used Barack Obama's middle name in order to incite the crowd of thousands of people who have already gathered here.

"On Nov. 4, let's leave Barack Hussein Obama wondering what happened," the law enforcement officer said.

I don't think that ANYONE that is on the government dole should be allowed to vote.
************
That would excluded police officers, fire men, emergency repsonse personnel, mayors, city council members, all employees at Federal Funded hospitals, Congress men and women, ALL US and State Senators, EVERY Federal and State Employee, etc.

What a farking mo-ron!!

[Pinkmarbles]

The public dole is FREE you dolt. You notice that I did not say PAYROLL where you work for your money. Look up the words public dole before you make a fool out of yourself..ooops to late.

[2876]

What do trolls and Palin have in common? Hate

[2876]

According to your logic, Palin wouldn't be able to vote either. She's just a state employee.

Here's another place we should consider calling:
This sherrif is a public servant and should not be inciting racial hatred. Also, the person who shouted kill him should have been detained for questioning.

pinkmarbles. 40 acres and a mule dumb arse. GET OFF MY LAWN.

[Pinkmarbles]

I would respond but I have no idea what this means.

[2876]

let me spell that out for you...you...are...a...dumb....arse...got it?

[boogiewoman]

John Sydney McCain. John has a girls name. JOHN SYDNEY McCAIN!!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

[Pinkmarbles]

I don't think that ANYONE that is on the government dole should be allowed to vote. If someone is giving you free food, housing etc... why would you vote for the party that would make you work for it? Only land owners should be allowed to vote. That is the way it was originally written in the Constitution!!!

[2876]

I guess Palin and McCain shouldn't vote either then. Gee, guess what they're on the government dole. Guess who is paying their health care? And the answer would be the Government. Who's going to pay the healthcare for Palin's grandkid? The government...

[postman606]

Wow you sound like you're looking for your runaways. m.a.s.s.a

[wdw101]

it is his name.......is it not?

[JaniceL]

Come on, don't be coy. You know for what purpose and to what effect he invoked Barack's full name. With the Republicans, there always seems to be a need to spell things out. Why is this? Such as "His name is Hussein,dontcha know? Isn't that scary? Don't vote for the terrorist!" I'm truly frightened by the paranoid stupidity that seems to run rampant on the right.

[gigi09]

Contact Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Shultz, and ask her to investigate the uniformed officer that did this. Remember when Obama was in Germany...Bush would not allow the Americans there (working for America) to attend because it would be a partisan agenda. Should this fall into the same category?

An officer in uniform at a political rally giving a speech??? It seems intimidating. What scares me most about the Republican party is the way the are running their campaign: intimidating young voters, sending absentee ballots with incorrect info to Democrats in swing states, only allowing controlled interviews with Palin, and using this officer at a rally (This probably encouraged someone to yell, "kill him".) If this is how they run their campaign, just imagine how they will run the White House!

[jdw1981]

That sheriff has a terrible case of Girlie Voice.

[wagthedog1001]

BUT he drives a BIG TRUCK!

[bluemike]

Michael Scott utilizes a thug's approach to campaigning - no nuances. Let's leave Scotty wondering what happened on November Fourth.

[Pinkmarbles]

What is all the RAGE for. He used the mans NAME for Christ sake. IT IS HIS NAME. He should be proud of it no matter what it is. HE PICKED IT!!!

[duchessdorleans]

Let's get something striaght. Obama did not pick his middle name. And there is nothing wrong with his middle name. It is an extremely common name. But you and I and everyone else knows d*mn well that when a right winger uses his middle name it is to insinuate something disgusting and it is to attempt to racially smear him by associating him with Sadaam Hussein. It's school yard politics and you know it.

[Deluded]

Lucky him my parents picked mine!

[Pinkmarbles]

His [parents picked his as well but he changed it!!!

[CyrusBeaucephus]

Whats all this rage wingnut? CAn't handle a black president?? ha ha better plan on moving to Praguay in November. What's tha? Can't sell your house? Well I guess you better have a talk with the economic de-regulaters in your beloved GOP.I'd start with Rick Davis

[Pinkmarbles]

How about starting with Jimmy Carter who signed into law the bill that forced banks to lend money to people that couldn't pay it back. Or, we could start with Bill Clinton who completely rewrote the Fannie and Freddie guidelines to make sure that the banks were lending money to people that could not pay it back. Or to Barney Frank, who was Chairman over the Financial Services Committee and was dating Herb Moses who was an executive with Fannie Mae and on NUMEROUS occasions voted to not regulate them. You see Cyrus, the government passes laws governing what the banks are suppose to do. The banks go by the lending guidelines of Fannie and Freddie, then, the banks sell those loans to Fannie and Freddie. So the person that oversees this is Barney Frank. Barney has to go by the guidelines that were written by your golden boy Bill Clinton!

[JaniceL]

First of all, what are you talking about that he picked it? Don't parents generally name their children? Regardless, I'm sure he is proud of it as it makes him who he is. He certainly has never hidden it. Why would the right invoke it as if it's a bad thing? Such racism is an ugly thing.

The only rage concerning Sen Obama's middle name is from his detractors.

Only the ignorant will disparage a person based upon their name, race or gender.

In fairness, perhaps Lee County, Sheriff Mike Scott was addressing a crowd receptive to this type of discrimination.

How else to interpret the audience reaction?

[DonDavis]

Forget Ayers, Wasn’t that McCAIN Embracing a Commie Radical?
http://satiricalpolitical.com/?p=3763

[Pinkmarbles]

That is more of a forgiveness hug. I don't think that he is hugging him because he killed Americans.... grow up!

[KiwisCanFly]

Glad u asked Pinkmarbles

Was McCain looking for a vehicle to preemptively invade Iraq and depose Hussein?

I have come to believe that McCain was an ardent and aggressive proponent of a preemptive strike against Hussein. One would have to ignore a lot of history, to buy into the McCain version of the Iraq war. I'm not just referring to Mccain cosponsoring the resolution authorizing the use of force against Iraq.

Iraqi exile leader Ahmad Chalabi. McCain, who was himself an early Chalabi backer with ties to the Iraqi going all the way back to 1991. Charles Black and his BKSH was the lobbying vehicle. Chalabi's INC. Scheunemann was a board member of the neoconservative think tank, the Project for the New American Century. Above all else, PNAC desires and demands one thing: The establishment of a global American empire to bend the will of all nations. Funded largely by the energy and arms industries. Scheunemann’s 2002 Committee for the Liberation of Iraq, McCain and Lieberman were on this committee, "a group of people who will talk to Americans about why the liberation of Iraq is something the United States ought to do." The one goal of this committee, was to reverse a decline in support for possible military action.

Connect the dots. Fact check it

The GOOD news is Joe Biden is comming tom!!

[Heavy]

Did anyone hear the person in the crowd who shouted "ki ll" Obama?

[urweatherman]

NOPE!

[oscartucker]

According to Rachel Madow, someone yelled, "Kill him" which was not clear as to whether the person meant Ayers or Obama. At any rate, Palin and McCain are inciting hatred and someone could be hurt or killed. There are many sickos out there and to have this kind of reaction to their words could cause something disastrous.( When McCain asked, "Who is Barack Obama?", someone yelled, "A terroist!".) The sheriff should be removed; he should not be campaigning in his uniform. He too is inciting hatred.
