    Paul was running as a Republican and after he dropped out of the running for the Republican nominee he was placed on the Constitution Party's ballot without his consent after Baldwin was removed. Paul requested his name be taken off the Constitution Party's ballot though.

    For the first thirty seconds or so, while Palin walks out, its pretty much 50/50 booing and applause.

    Despite not being on McCain's side I still feel relief/respect when he shakes his head at little old ladies babbling about Obama being an "Arab". Sheesh!

    I guess it'd depend on the bass setting on your TV. Boos are mainly bass.

    I'm glad he stopped the lady when she said that, but he still needs to be a lot more forceful on some of the assholes in the crowds at his rally.

    And Palin needs to stop saying he's "pallin around with terrorists" thus invoking some of those false charges.

    I'd like to know where she got the idea he's "palling around with terrorists" in the first place.

    Because he's willing to have diplomatic talks with Iran.

    Also I'm sure part of it has to do with the fact that ignorant redneck neo-cons automatically focus on his middle name (Hussein) and believe he's a terrorist himself, bent on destroying this country from the inside.

    ....yes that's an actual conspiracy theory going around about Obama although it's not funny because it's actually offensive to Arabs and Muslims. And Palin is playing right into it. I don't care if some of the Repubs on here try to downplay it, as many in the media have noticed...Palin is a cancer to the Republican party.

    I agree 100%.

    It's truly depressing to see racial slur and remark go as ok.


    seriously?! Is there anything wrong being Arab and/or muslims, what is it?

    "Oh they attacked us!"

    Yeah, certainly WASN'T OBAMA PLANNED. We all love to play "guilty by association"

    Just doesn't fucking work all the time. ( Never heard of this conspiracy theory :lol: )

    Amazing what kind of people you find at McCain/Palin rallies. I am both offended and disgusted. Cheers to the protesters.

    And before you McCain supporters go "and comparing Bush to a chimpanzee is fair?" notice the person referred to Obama as "Hussein", which means he was clearly referring that he thinks Obama is a terrorist muslim (WHICH I'M SICK OF BECAUSE MUSLIMS ARE GOOD PEOPLE) as well as playing into the often used racist description of black people as 'monkeys'.

    I look forward to Obama winning by a landslide this November, and quite frankly as of this point, I could care less who that offends in this thread.

    The Palin comments stem from Obama's background and relationship with William Ayers, a member of Weather Underground. WU is or was a domestic terrorist group from the 60s/70s that bombed federal buildings to protest the Vietnam war. It is a bit questionable but there isnt much to tell other than Ayers' acts from his past.

    The only link between Obama and Ayers is that they were neighbors, both taught at the same school, and both served on the board of some charity, along with republicans. That's it. Ayers did this crap when Obama was 8, Obama has condemned his actions, and it's nothing more than guilt by association.

    I work at a major company that employs more than 300,000 people. I'm sure one of those people has a shady past. Does that mean I'm a bad person :rolleyes:

    Also, those who live in glass homes shouldn't throw stones:
