Palin Rally: "Kill Him" Yelled Again

Via Politico, The Scranton Times reports another threat against Barack Obama at a Sarah Palin rally Tuesday:

Chris Hackett addressed the increasingly feisty crowd as they await the arrival of Gov. Palin.

Each time the Republican candidate for the seat in the 10th Congressional District mentioned Barack Obama the crowd booed loudly.

One man screamed "kill him!"

At previous rallies, McCain-Palin supporters have shouted "Kill Him!" as well as "Treason!" "Terrorist!" and "Off With His Head!"

The latest violent call came on the same day that Brave New Films has come out with a compilation of these moments, urging supporters to "tell John McCain to end the politics of hate."

Where is the Secret Service? Why isn't this person removed, detained and questioned at lenghth.

[chrisberge72]

I wouldn't be surprised if in the next 3 weeks that we see undercover Republicans at Obama rallies who scream out such things about McCain in a way to level the playing field of dignity.

[odoreida]

You mean, do exactly what Democrat undercovers have been doing at McCain/Palin rallies?

[chrisberge72]

What have they been doing?

[rich misty]

Didn't you know Obama put undercover Dems into all the churches in the South

[MajorKong]

Does this tinfoil hat make me look fat?

[nellie]

Are you cr.azy? Do you really think ANYONE from the Obama campaign would ENDANGER THE NOMINEE AND HIS FAMILY???

What a l.unatic you must be. Just like those people at the rallies. Geez.

[theMightyT]

no, i think chris was pretty specific in what he meant.

nice try tho.

[noamjunior]

they will be called out by Obama- as he has done for the last 10 months whenever someone yells something disparaging or inappropriate

[mmgbizgirl]

mccain is stirring a cold war here at home and our "leaders" should interject NOW before the genie's condo is foreclosed on and there is no possible way to return her to the bottle.

[Budokan]

All Sarahcudda has to do is incite one sociopath in the crowd. Just one. She knows that. Trust me, she knows exactly what she's doing.

[nellie]

I've never heard of anything like this before in my life. This campaign is totally without conscience.

[MadJeffersonian]

And what did Palin do besides smirk?

[momforbetterworld]

yep ... i cannot wait for them to deflate this plastic doll

[grata2ude]

Why are the secret service not doing anything to arrest these people. Hell McCain had a 72 year old woman led out of a rally because of a sign she carried, she was a McCain supporter but I think the sign was about bringing the troops home. She was escorted out by the police.

These people are commiting a crime and they do nothing? Something is not right here.

[Mag44]

They may be, but couldn't the Secret Svc tell her to tone it down? Not that she would listen to them anymore than she's listening to anyone else. They know what could happen. Couldn't it be considered a securtiy issue if a riot broke out or something? What a fight breaks out and they grab Palin and run everyone else fend for yourselves?

[Audrey704]

No I think they should shut down the rally if that is the tone it is taking....don't give her an audience until she is ready to tone it down....Isn't it a little embarrassing for a politician to be carrying on like a rock star...I;ll say and do whatever I want without thinking about the consequences....

[Mag44]

I just put a comment on O's website about this issue and the fact it needs to be addressed, whether at the debate or a press conference, something must be done about this issue and P. Just because she is going down doesn't mean she's taking the rest of us w/her which is her intent. No Mercy. It's getting to close to election day to allow this to continue w/all the anxiety in the air. Stupid chick.

[judyc]

Why is this woman on a national ticket? I don't get it.

[Budokan]

Because she excites The Base. Which tells you a lot about The Base....

[Lotus19]

Because the Evangelical Christian Right found an extremist wacko that they could mold to do their bidding. If they could get her in office what a prize that would be for them. They didn't care about ethics, honor, intelligence or anything of substance, as it relates to the welfare of the country. John McCain may not have know about her, but they sure did, and handed her to him on a tarnished platter.

[BIG JOHN]

GOD LOVE HER, BUT SHE JUST AINT GOT IT. WHATEVER IT IS.

[ErnestineBass]

If you're not watching "Frontline" on PBS right now, you should be.

[nellie]

Fortunately, Frontline lets you watch its documentaries from the website after they air.

[meede]

For McCain to pick Palin, along with First Dude, have had ties to extremist group AIP, it's like climbing in bed with Bin Ladin. We've known of sleeper cells and just never know. They say they
re not associated anymore -- with all the lies told -- hold can we trust someone like that. Line that comes to mind -- How can you tell Palin is lying -- Her lips are moving.

Look at Palin at the rallies, she has been wearing a polar bear pin. She wore large American Flag pin at VP debate and few rallies but for pretty much this last week worn Polar Bear pin. The reason this is symbol for AIP. Is this supposed to be 'shout out' to them?? Here is a section of their bylaw:

"1.02 Symbol

The symbol of the Alaskan Independence Party shall be a polar bear depicted with the Big Dipper and north star in the background. The party symbol incorporating these elements may be used on clothing, on pins, signs and other means for advertising and raising party funds"

CNN did piece today about AIP. McCain campaign sent release to CNN they were not happy it was being aired. Compared it to doing a piece on Barack's religion. AIP is not a religious group. It's similar to group that Timothy McVeigh was a member of -- the one who blew up the building in OK. That kind of group. Scares the he11 out of me -- in the white

[Audrey704]

Do you have any pictures?

[meede]

To see Palin wearing the pin, just watch her giving one of her speeches. On Monday, she wore it on a white blouse on her right side. On Tuesday it was on a blue dress.

[Georgiamomof2]

KO called out John Mccain!!

[McFlipFlop]

I love Keith.

[Mag44]

You know what? O has to call Mc out on this at the debate. This is way worse than the Ayres issue. His campaign is allowing this to continue and I can guarantee the closer it gets to election day the worse it will get. I'll be damned if I'm gonna let some croonie scare me into not voting. I'm past being scared and I'm ticked to no end. I've really had my fill of this chick and all the rebugs that stand around cowardly and allow this to go on will be held responsible if a riot or worse breaks out. Everyone at those rallies is held responsible because no one spoke up. They probably can't in fear of a fight breaking out. ENOUGH ALREADY.

[Budokan]

Do you understand, finally, that these people are our ENEMY? Do they actually have to accomplish what they're screaming they want to do to Senator Obama before you wake up?

DONATE. VOLUNTEER. VOTE. CRUSH THE GOP.

[WendyKa]

Keith Olbermann just did a brief "Special Comment" on this topic. How McCain is NOW playing victim with the John Lewis' reference to George Wallace and the parallels between him and McCain/Palin rallies. He demanded that he gain control of his campaign and should even suspend it until he can. Basically "Enough!" He was really worked up this time. It will be on Huffington Post tomorrow no doubt

[Mag44]

SHE NEEDS TO GO NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
