This reality of this video is still hard to fathom.

I'm a republican and this disgusts me

why is this difficult to fathom? the usa has some real ignorant & stupid people. these are your neighbours, cousins, co-workers. they're not an anomaly

I cant help but wonder if the Republican party is trying to make this happen; Instilling fear and false information into 'the troops', to perhaps get them to rally and spread more misinformation, in the hopes of winning. Hard to imagine that anyone would do this to win, but also, it seems like it's a pretty nasty campaign and now that McCain is this far in the hole, he might be pulling out all stops. He defiantly knows war tactics.

There are some truths about Obama that worry me but I nor any of my Republican friends stoop to this level to make a point. In all fairness, many Democrats have engaged in some pretty ugly acts as well, much of it documented right here on FF.
- David Ward
David, can you point to some video for Dems acting like this? I haven't seen anything like this.
- Andrew Baron
as terrible as this stuff is (and this is not isolated), i think it's important to keep in mind these people are clearly afraid and hurting. whether they have a right to be afraid is not the issue - they are. and they will be after the election. and it will be difficult to move the country forward while they are still afraid. we all have work to do.

@Andrew: In fairness, I've seen worse stuff said about GWB... but it's usually coming from the 9/11 Truth wingnuts and their ilk.

is there an obama rally on the other side of the street? it's a bit hard to tell from the video. i agree that what's said in this video is despicable, i just wonder what kinds of comments were coming from the other side of the street.
- Jessie
@Jessie Yes, the counter-rally is shown at the begining of video.

Also, just a nice retrospective on the rage the left has been dishing out over the past 8 years -- http://is.gd/3W1l

That grandfatherly old man at 0:46 with the stuffed monkey is the same guy who famously and sheepishly tried to paw off the animal to a kid when he noticed he was on TV. http://www.dailykos.com/storyon...
