The Observation Deck

Let's face it there is plenty of anger and stupidity on both sides. Even McCain is pushing back against his nut job supports.

The Story (Yahoo)

The Video (yes... youtube)

NOTE : Not all McCain supporters are nut jobs. Just the ones in that video

Yeah I saw that. Is he running scared from his klan contingent?

Did you notice that the woman who stood up and said that Obama was an Arab said "He wasn't?" like oh um sorry, when McCain spoke the blessings?

Soundbites. This country has too many people who truly think they know things from sound bytes.

There were protesters at his rally in Davenport today...

...and here's the Iowa Independent's liveblog of the event.

When you train people to be stupid you'll usually succeed: that is what Fox news is for. The hicks who believe Obama is a muslim or an arab are Americans with the same concerns as most other americans: they're just full of bad information.

Maybe you can create an "Obsession" style documentary on McCain using this clip...

That is really sad. The people that try to say Obama is a terrorist make me angry but this poor woman really doesn't seem to know any better.

What is sad? that this clip is being used to paint McCain supportes with one broad brush... This is like painting all of Islam as radical because of the words and actions of a couple extremist groups.. Sad

What is sad is that someone filled this woman's head with hate towards another woman. It's Sunday Stephen and I am not in the moodg to get into it with you today.

No, the woman made her own choice... She has free will...

Stephen, I did point out at the top of the page that not all McCain supports are nut jobs. Just that lady.

They only people who are stupid to use that clip to paint all mccain supporters as grade a nut jobs are the same people who paint all Muslims as terrorists. Trust me there are ignorant people on both sides.

We are all adults and regardless of what media is presented to us it is still our responsibility take away meaning. If you think obama is a terrorist you are an idiot. Likewise if you see that clip and think all mccain supports are butt heads then you too are a fool.
