Mr. LS found this video of a McCain speech where a man in the audience shouts, "Kill him".
When you watch the video you can clearly see that McCain grimaces and tilts his head back. Further into the video, you can hear someone shout, "They are terrorists"…Everyone has focused on someone shouting out the very thing at a Palin rally, but it is happening at McCain rallies too. McCain needs to publicly denounce this dangerous reaction from his audience in response to the heinous incitement that he and Palin are engaged in….but noooooo….just *crickets*, while they continue to feed a fire that could end badly.

I screwed up the video part. Here it is:

Thanks for finding this. It truly looks like stirring up hatred is all they have left.
In calling her political opponent a domestic terrorist (well, palling around with one anyway) especially when his middle name is Hussein and his first and last names are “mysterious” is pretty clearly inciting the kind of hatred people feel towards al Qaeda. This is on Sarah Palin and the McCain campaign.
McCain himself has demonstrated a clear lack of respect and arguably contempt for Obama by not looking at him during debate one, referring to him as “that one” in debate two and not shaking his hand at the end of the debate.
“Kill him!” is a fairly predictable response from the an unhigned authoritarian right wing mob.
If “Kill him!” came up without the incitement, we would allow it to pass as an act of an individual with a lot of anger. Because of the slanderous character assassination portraying Obama as suspect cohorting with known domestic terrorists whose middle name is foreign and whose religious affiliation has been questioned as Muslim by FoxNewsCorp endlessly, then we have clearly have McCain and Palin inciting the angry mob.
McCain seems to react as though he’s surprised by the Kill Him! and taken aback and then the calculation: OK, that’s him not me. McCain, by his own personal calculation, is not above benefiting from this approach. I’m not the first to say that John McCain is for John McCain first.
Watch this video from Brave New PAC. Send it to your friends.

They are filled with rage and hate. The anger is unbelievable, try dealing with one of them. Ad hominems are the order of the day. I have been put on a Rightwing mailing list now for my letters to the editor (I replied to one and asked how I got on their list). these people blame the Democrats for everything!
I have learned that we raised our children wrong by teaching them that they could have anything at no cost, our new deal welfare state caused 600lb people and disincentized people from working, our opposition to sensible energy plans has caused the huge National debt, etc, etc. Of course, their idea of a reliable news source is Worldnewsnet.
How long will it take for the Main Stream Media to catch onto the point LS has made? Will they condemn it or mention it for five minutes and ignore it.
Sarah loves to talk about Obama’s terrorist connections how about the terrorists in your own audience?
Has anyone been watching the latest McCain and Sarah rally’s is this racist behavior happening again today?
Dugg!
And Recommended.
Is this the video from Albuquerque? I s’pose it could be any one of his solo sparse crowd of haters rallies.
Someone asked in the blogosphere [Josh? Kos? John? yesterday? anyway…] whether we’d be seeing John Wallace McCain or John McCarthy McCain.
Clearly we see he is both. Joseph McCarthy and George Wallace live in the covetous body of John Scurrilous McCain. How any supposed true evangelical believers can ignore his naked avarice for the White House and its power is beyond me.
I’m sure he rationalizes to himself that it’s just hardball political campaigning, like the time he chuckled when his supporter called Hillary a bitch.
And as for Palin inciting the same kind of incendiary reactions at her rallies, what would you expect from a woman who pushes for shooting canines from airplanes?
The cancer that Brooks described her as has clearly metastasized throughout the McPalin campaign.
You go, LS!
