As Wall Street continued its nosedive, and markets around the world shuddered, John McCain's campaign launched an unrelentingly nasty assault on Barack Obama. Sarah Palin accused Obama of "palling around with terrorists." McCain co-chair Frank Keating smeared him as a drug-using "guy of the street." McCain contemptuously called him "that one." Rally speakers repeatedly referred to him as "Barack Hussein Obama." Rabid crowds responded with cries of "kill him!" and "treason." The party of Lincoln has gone from appealing to "the better angels of our nature" to evoking the darkest demons of our nature. Nevertheless, it was Cindy McCain who accused Obama of having "waged the dirtiest campaign in American history" -- a breathtaking display of projection.

By tying Obama to Ayers is not race-baiting. It is irrelevant, it is a diversion tactic but it is not racism.
Because McCain has racists at his rallies does not make him racist. He is the white guy running against a black guy in a two horse race. Guess which one racists are going to flock to? Unless you presume guilt upon McCain by association then we must also presume guilt upon Obama for his association to Ayers. Granted, they different situations but they both exhibit guilt by association nonetheless.
McCain demonstrated a bold defense of Obama in front of his more ignorant supporters. Could you have seen George Wallace doing that?
Although it would appear McCain is poor choice for president given his poor judgment and rash decision-making, this does not make him a racist. To suggest otherwise is to engage in the corrosion of the democratic process, much of which has been achieved by both candidates already.

Sarah Palin - Violation of Alaska Statute for Misuse of Power
John McCain - Ethics Code Violation and support of Financial Criminal
Cindy McCain - She and her father continued business relationship with Keat5ing 11 more years!!!!!
Rick Davis - Fannie-Freddie Scandal - firm receiving check up until last month
What a great combination! No wonder their campaign is so Erratic and unprofessional!
McCain's letter -- signed by nineteen other senators -- said that it was "...vitally important that Congress take the necessary steps to ensure that [Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac]...operate in a safe and sound manner.[and]..More importantly, Congress must ensure that the American taxpayer is protected in the event that either...should fail."
Sen. Obama did not sign the letter, nor did any other Democrat.
We have all written such CYA and it is a meaningless activity to protect yourself not to help AMERICA!
Look, I worked telephone sales many years ago in Columbus, Ohio. Tried to get people to meetings where they'd be sold on time shares. Got paid by the number of bodies who showed up, not the number of sales they made. Same thing here. Mortgage salesmen pocketed the commission on deals made, not on deals paid. It's not nearly as complicated as people think. It's just greed, plain and simple.
This is a "RED HERRING" by the Republicans on "FOX EM"
It is hard to look the other way when you consider the long-term business relationship Obama has had with Resco, the political association with Ayers, the legal council Obama provided to ACORN and the religious association with Wright and Flanigan.
The office of the President of the United States, the most powerful office in the free world, is not the place to be teaching Ethics 101.
And don't get me started on "religious association." Hagee? Parsley? Witch Doctors? I'll take Wright seven days a week compared to those whackos.
And it's Rezco, not Resco.
You need to think way beyond your personal W-2.
I AM SPEECHLESS

1. no taxes (dont need them to support the nation)
2. balance the budget first term (get the wealthy to provide charitable donations when they feel like it)
3. Give every american a tax handout (because america is just like Alaska)
4. Any rape victim must have the child then that child can go into servitude maybe as a domestic servant to the wealthy
Please support this agenda and add to it as you see fit
The media blackout on this is unbelievable!
