I curiously checked on this blog “Hatred toward Obama” to see if there’s anything that I didn’t know. However, I did find even more hatreds and name-callings toward McCain & Palin, and there have been just 10 posts and counting…

During the open-air DNC convention in Denver, some conservative christians were praying for rain. I thought it was distaseful.

But at the beginning of the RNC convention in St. Paul, when hurrican Gustav landed on Louisiana Gulf coast and nearly submerged New Orlean once again, Michael Moore took the opportunity to comment that “this Gustav is proof that there is a God in heaven”. This was more than distasteful. It was sick.

During the RNC convention, protesters threw park benches into the streets and smashed windows. Police had to arrest 283 people after firing projectiles, pepper spray and tear gas to disperse a crowd demonstrating near the convention site. Their acts included tactics to blockade and disable delegate buses, breaching venue security and injuring police officers with weapons like flammables, duct tape, knives, and urine! I also remembered the 2004 NYC convention, where protesters got naked on 8th ave., some bundled themselves up at the middle of the street blocking all traffics… Those are things that give our democracy a bad name.

Granted that both sides wanted to have their voices heard, but obviously one side seemed angrier and more willing to resort to violence. Of course we can’t generalize either party based on some bad apples. But independent voters obviously need examples better than those sneering and gleeing bunches in order to win their votes.

Regarding the above article posted by Nguyen about certain less-than-courteous McCain supporters, all I can think of is “birds of the same feather”! Certain candidates possess certain persona and emit certain odors that attract certain supporters. Sometimes, I almost feel sorry for McCain and that warm oven of his called Sarah Palin for their painful effort to assassinate Obama’s character! Any negative energy they produce will eventually come back to them and it won’t be pretty! Sort of like activating a stink bomb: do it frequently enough and your bloodstream will probably absorb certain weird chemicals that make you look more and more like particular species of K9

Once upon a time, a country called the USA was just like the rest of the world: they used to send highly educated and cultured people to the White House and advancements in Science, Technology, Literature, Fine Arts, etc were on the agenda. On a gloomy day, a number of people seized the forum and called for an administration to be filled with semi-literate individuals who knew how to wave flags and produce catchy soundbites. The country stopped being competitive the day its agenda was ambushed and filled with personal obsessions like Gun Sales, wars based on lies, and the determination to remove the separation between Church and State.

The only way to stop the above gloomy scenario from materializing is to get out and vote for CHANGE, even if you are living in a Blue State because you don’t know what trick the spooky men/pitbulls of the Republican Party will pull this time. Don’t forget Florida in 2000! Don’t forget the filthy Swift Boat in 2004! Watch out for them in 2008!

Such an article! Read it, it may make you want to vomit though!

“I went to the McCain rally today”

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/9/10/152425/515/111/593835

…The friend of the woman behind me showed up and started screaming at them. Yelling, “Obama wants to abort 40 million babies in his first term.” She wailed over and over on this. When the ruckus died down, I said to her, “I don’t think he wants to abort babies.” The woman was kinda shocked I said that, “He wants to abort as many Republicans as possible to keep a Liberal Majority. He would abort Bristol’s baby if he could. He will force abortions on every Republican woman in this nation if he is president!”

…
The next 90 minutes was an exercise in endurance. “Obama will destroy our country”, “Obama is what is wrong with Washington.”"McCain will clean up the corruption!” “Joe Biden has been in the Senate for 24 years, and what has he done?”

My legs also started hurting.

Interspersed with this was the claim that Obama hated women, and how sexist he was, and how horrible he is towards women. I heard a rather redneck fella say in one breath, “Obama hates women” followed by, “Damn, I would FUCK Sarah Palin silly!”

Exactly, she tries to be cutesy with her folksy annoying remarks. It is very embarrassing. That is how pathetic today
‘Republican party has become. They picked Palin to appeal to those “ordinary average, moe joe, soccer mom et… blah blah.. ” We are talking about vice president here folks.
Just look around you and see… look at Wall Street this month. Look at the greeds, the morons, self- indulged CEOS that drove their
companies down to the ground. Still I have
faith that we will see the right candidate for the white househe. I believe that Mr. Obama will walk in the white house very soon.

It is sad that roughly 40% of Americans still think that they should vote for someone who sounds like their next door hockey mom or average Joe. There is nothing wrong with hockey moms or average Joes, but we want someone with a wide cultural horizon and progressive vision to bring our country forward instead of slip into obscurity. Three scientists were awarded today for their discoveries and researches in medicines and not one of them was American. What happened to our America that used to be a leading name in Science, Technology and the Arts?

Oh man, looking at the videos of those McCain-Palin rallies, America … you have become a country of a bunch of morons with the national debt increasing another million in every six seconds. The Republican base and us too are gonna die not because of al Qaeda but of our own stupidity.

A few months ago, when it had appeared that Hillary might be McCain’s principal challenger, a McCain supporter called Hillary “bitch” in a rally. He was there and he smiled.

Do we want a President who labels his opponents bitches and terrorists? The vulgarity and mean-spiritedness are sickening, and the implied threats to his opponents (you whack the bitch and you kill the terrorist–yes?) have to make you wonder about the future of this democracy with a McCain/Palin administration.
