What is with you and demonstrably false statement?

Great... so my parent's just called me to say that one of their windows with a Obama/Biden campaign sign attached on the inside was smashed by a brick in the middle of the night. It also hit a desk chair in the process.

Christ, Texas is full of red necks. I warned them that displaying anything other than Republican support is a recipe for disaster around here.

I can't watch the videos, but I often hear people talk about McCain's discomfort with the goons who are supporting him, and running with him. Is this a way of pandering to both the extreme and the reasonable at the same time? Allowing the extreme to carry on with the rascism and death threats, while the reasonable can take comfort in McCain's apparent discomfort?

If it really bothered him, why the **** is he continuing to associate with these people? Does he have that little integrity?

I was stunned Friday night when a friend of mine, a couple of drinks in him, proclaimed "I'm sorry, but I can't vote for a Muslim." This was later followed by a rant about "sticking your ass in the air three times a day."

When pressed, he admits he knows that Obama is not a "practicing" Muslim, but countered with "but his father was a Muslim." This was before we got to the "ok, let's say he was a Muslim, so ****ing what?" part.

We were also treated to an explanation of how he tries to avoid shopping at liquor stores owned by Indians (pissed about IT outsourcing. Apparently, this translates into hating on Apu).

The Obama's a Muslim thing is really a perfect storm of factual inaccuracy coupled with bigotry.

Don't they stick their asses in the air five times a day?

[KrazyHorse]

Yeah. I roomed with a pretty devout Muslim for a month this June.

Welcome back, KH!!

What do the facts matter? Whether it's three or five times a day, apparently the Muslim prayer ritual is something to be mocked & derided (as opposed to the Catholic rituals this friend routinely engages in). Obama is a closet Muslim who will sell out his country in negotiations with countries in the ME.

I almost forgot, when asked about Palin, his response was "she's in the NRA. I love her. But I haven't been paying attention."

Nice. Seriously. Just... wow. Speaking of asses....

And for evidence of asses not on this board:
A large Obama/Biden sign on my commute had 9-11 spray painted on to it. It took me a minute (long light) to figure out exactly what it was, the concept of Obama and 9-11 somehow being related is just completely foreign to me. Granted, whoever put that sign up did put it in the garden of the shopping center where the Shelby County Republican party is located, so that was perhaps not the brightest, but still, hateful, ignorant people...

edit: Not insinuating the Republican party per se had something to do with the vandalism, just that it stands to reason that there will be Republicans (and therefore Obama haters) frequenting that shopping center, thereby making it an easy target.

Look at it this way. On November 3rd, they can eat a **** sandwich.

Uhh, the third? The election is on the 4th, and if the states out west matter, the results won't be in until the 5th in my time zone.
