I didn't know where to put this so I am putting it here.

I was glad to see that at a town hall meeting today McCain corrected a woman when she said Obama was an arab. To paraphrase McCain he said she was wrong that Obama was a good American family man. With all the craziness going on at McCain rallies I am glad that he is finally shutting these people down, they even booed him when he said Obama was a good man. I just want to say although I don't agree with McCain and I certainly won't vote for him I give him kudos for finally trying to stop this insanity.

Dannielle - This is just a new tack. The converatives must have given him fair warning to quit playing to the klan types. This is my belief.

Stephen how do you feel about the reports of the hate speech that is going on at these rallies? Do you defend them? Or do you agree with McCain that it is getting out of hand and that it needs to stop?

Here is a short one of him correcting a woman who called Obama an arab. Notice the luke warm response of the crowd, doesn't sound to me like the crowd is pleased with what McCain said.

Yep let's change the subject Stephen. There is hate speech going on at McCain rallies, Palin is leading a lot of it and it sounds like even McCain is getting a bad taste in his mouth. But I am done with this Stephen. I ask you some questions, you ask for proof, I give you proof and you change the subject without answering the questions. It's pointless to have a conversation with you.

Dannielle - My point exactly. I'm not going to try for a while, it's never ending.

I just stopped in to see what's up with you.
