Muslim McCain Fans Confront Intolerance At Rally (VIDEO)

At a John McCain rally in Woodbridge, Virginia, three people handed out "Obama for Change"
bumper stickers with the Communist sickle and hammer and the Islamic crescent, saying Obama was a socialist with ties to radical Islam. Several moderate McCain supporters, Muslim and Christian alike, struck back - relentlessly bombarding the group distributing the flyers until they left the premises.

Totally staged! Spreading the hate while looking like the good guys simultaneously.
It would almost be brilliant if it wasn't so obviously fake.

IF this wasn't staged - I liked it when they guy says to someone, "I understand you are a Muslim?" The guy says "no". His response - "then WHAT are you?" Geez. The better question, again, IF this isn't staged, is WHAT are you?

These low-life, narrow-minded people are about to BECOME THE NEW MINORITY !!!!
You'll see them lurking in the darkest corners of Palin's "Pro-American" areas - (disgusting) -

Any thinking person knows there's moderates on both sides. I'm not really surprised there's muslims who support McCain, but I do wonder why with the subtext of much of Palin's speeches. If it's real or not can be debated. McCain and Palin need to do more to silence their "fringe" supporters and but race on the backburner, or eclipse it. But it seems to me that playing on those fears is part of the campaign. So I'm glad people stood up to that sort of ignorance, but at the same time, they're not the people who really matter: McCain and Palin.

Are these people actors? If not, they look like they are. It does not appear impromptu.

Seems a little too odd to me. The guy who walks up and says he is a Maryland campaign delegate and a Muslim says he doesn't endorse this guy's behaviour;yet he has no problem with the robo-calls from the McCain camp claiming Obama is a Muslim

Maybe it was staged...

"CNN Host Rick Sanchez said he was 'mystified' by a last minute decision by the McCain campaign to pull a Muslim grassroots organizer from appearing on his show."

Another sad day for Americans-
I don't understand how people will vote against their own interest
even while violence is directed at them?
Hooray for the individual(s) who stood up to
the morons berating them-

[ryanjack]

i think this is staged.
a mccain campaign propaganda to tell the world that they are not racist.
muslims dont support mccain. if they do, they are bloody idiots. (btw, i am a muslim)
republicans hates islam. they hates blacks american, latino even hate the caucasian who vote for barack obama. they called the REAL american hero like colin powell as racist.
The republican is totaly a gone case!

I want to know who are these muslims that want to vote for McCain, idiots should get their brain checked. Also, I think this is SO staged.

[javaman]

more morons voting against their own best interests.

[SanFran1]

Democrats do it every election.

This is a skit done by actors. How come the camera work is so clear and professional, but there is no reporter? And each person comes up at the perfect time to deliver the perfect line.

[wedgie]

Wow. You are completely and utterly WRONG. I just watched it. The camera work is clear because the camera operator is good at his job. The people show up because it's EDITED THAT WAY.

Man, it's really sad when all you can do is DENY DENY DENY any evidence that doesn't reinforce your own biased views. EVEN WHEN IT'S HAPPENING at a McCAIN rally with McCAIN supporters.

That's a pathetic excuse for independent thinking.

[SColbert]

Well, the reason for denial is because we have seen some not so intelligent crowds causing havoc at McCain rallies, so for them to come together and defend Islam in some way is surprising. We only DENY DENY DENY because we have seen a little too much horror from the McCain rallies.

[motorfive]

Whatever.

[JDHART]

Great example of what happens when the public takes a stand. The light is strong in you, young McCain supporters. Turn away from the Dark Side and come into the light. It's nicer here.

[winnie47]

I APPLAUD you , McCain supporters! If I knew your names , I would write you personally and thank you! If only others in your party were like you.....
