		<description>I love how John McCain calls Obama a socialist after he planted Joe the not-plumber (did I mention he&#039;s also a tax evader).  McCain is the one who wants the government to buy all these homes.  Should the government be owning the homes of private citizens?  That&#039;s worse than socialism.  It&#039;s more like communism.  And what about the college student who was arrested in Maine for holding up an Obama sign at a Palin (secessionist) rally?  I thought we had free speech in this country, but I guess McShame and Hockey Mom don&#039;t agree. 
OBAMA &#039;08!</description>

		<description>Hey everybody, I&#039;d just like to point out the obvious here.  I have read through every comment here, and it&#039;s sad and troubling to see that McCain and Palin are being so successful in dividing our great country!  They have instilled hatred into their base and it&#039;s disgusting to say the least.  It is one thing to disagree with anothers policies, but it&#039;s downright dangerous and immoral to attack an opponent as unAmerican, a terrorist, a danger.  Using these scare tactics is abhorrent.  
It&#039;s sad to have to explain to my young children that they should never act the way McCain and Palin have been acting.  I try to teach my kids to be fair, respectful of others even when they are in disagreement, and to never ever incite hatred for another human being.  So they asked me recently, &quot;well, how come that man and lady can do those bad things, don&#039;t they know the rules?&quot;.  No, I guess they don&#039;t..maybe they need to go back to kindergarten and learn them!!!  Thanks McCain and Palin for being such a poor example for America&#039;s children.  I get the feeling the kids of those  predjudist people at your rallies who are yelling &quot;kill him&quot;, &quot;terrorist&quot;, and &quot;bomb Obama&quot; aren&#039;t teaching there kids how to be good American citizens!!  Way to go!</description>

		<description>To Real_American
October 18th, 2008 11:52 pm ET &quot;We all know John McCain, but who is the REAL Barrack Obama?&quot;--- I agree, we all know John McCain, a misogynistic, angry, entitled, greedy, deceitful, desperate, divisive, pathetic, adulterer who sold whatever respect and ideals he had left for one last shot at the White House. Oh yeah, he was also a POW during the Vietnam War.  As for Barack Obama, he has told and shown you  &quot;who&quot; he is time and time again, you simply refuse to listen or pay attention.</description>

		<description>I live in Northern Virginia and unless you have traveled throughout the state, I can see how one would be offended by the &quot;real Virginia&quot; comment.  But the truth is that the state is broad and complex with significanty different driving issues to the south and west compared to Northern Virginia.  Most of the rest of Virginia actively claims that Northern Virginia isn&#039;t really Virginia.  It wasn&#039;t until I drove through other parts of the state that I realized WHY there is that feeling among other Virginians.  We are all Virginians but many Northern Virginias do have a different focus than the majority of the state.</description>

		<description>I am a real Virginian, just as my parents, grandparents, and great grandparents were.  Where is the real McCain?  I am ashamed for him. Has he all ways been this way?  If he has then we need to ask who is  the real McCain, not who is Obama!  

Senator Mc Cain, please stop bringing your divisive attitude to our proud state.  And by the way, Sara Palin&#039;s ethics are lacking . As far as this real Virginian is concerned, she can&#039;t return to Alaska fast enough for me.  Real Virginians don&#039;t  like her spreading her hatred in our red, white and especially  &quot;soon to be BLUE &quot; state.  Richmond, the real Virginia, a pro-American state.</description>

		<description>Real Americans vote for a real man, a real hero, or a tested soldier, a real commander-in-chief in a dangerous world, after 9/11, and not a smooth talker, or a flip-flopper, like Obama. We all know John McCain, but who is the REAL Barrack Obama? American people are smarter than that.</description>

		<description>Please... someone... anyone... Joe the Plummer, a soccer mom or dad, even a pig with lipstick...  Ask Sarah if she even knows what &quot;socialism&quot; is and how it applies to Obama!!!  

All she&#039;s doing is stirring the hate/fear base of &quot;real&quot; America who might be convinced by such shameful, wrong rhetoric.  McCain, himself, should know better and put a stop to it...  because it harms ALL of America...</description>

		<description>I guess the McCain campaign&#039;s true colors are showing. Earlier this month Joe McCain, John&#039;s brother, called Arlington and Alexandria, VA, &quot;communist country.&quot; 

After that wasn&#039;t received too well he tried to explain it away as a joke. Now what would have happened if Barack or Joe or any of their surrogates said that? We&#039;d still be hearing about it today!</description>

These two need to go down and go down hard so that the American people NEVER have to suffer through another campaign as pathetic, xenophobic and divisive as the one the McCain/Palin have waged..</description>

They really have to learn that their crap has got to stop and that we will no longer allow them to do this to us.   If we vote for them then we are asking for what they dish out.</description>

		<description>I have seen and had enough. John McCain, Sarah Palin and there whole damm sick, twisted, terrorist thinking campaign can go to hell. I just finished watching the Chris Matthews show and according to him there is more slime to come.  The McCain campaign is all about preaching and I did say preaching terrorism. Take the hint.  All republicans have to be really stupid to believe any of this crap. If they do then John McCain, and his entire campaign are pushing terrorism. There I said and I am not taking it back.</description>

		<description>Scott in Norfolk

I thought the republicans were socialist since they bought out  the financial system (banks) in wall street. second, the republicans say that they are bipartisan and work across the aisle specifcally McCain. Yet the republicans alienate democrats by saying we are unamerican. does not sound bipartisan to me.</description>

		<description>His ‘Straight Talk’ motto seems to have no principlies anymore.
The McCain campaign is embarrasingly unethical and dishonest. To think a man who at one time was ruined, hurt, and violated by the same tactics used on him. Rove and other campaign managers blasted McCains reputation and now he has chosen to sell his soul.
We are forced to watch Nancy Pfotenhauer practice her brand of phony, over-smiling condescending reiteration of annoying Republican talking points far too often While some might say that Nancy is just full of Botox and lip filler, I think she&#039;s full of crap. Nancy is allow lie after lie to be repeated to the press without challenge.</description>

		<description>We shall all see; Americans can no longer be fooled....That is The World&#039;s greatest nation!!......But l don&#039;t really think that McCain has anything tangible to tell Americans except to attack Barack. One wonders why he has not been telling Americans what he would do if elected instead of bullying Barack. The younger candidate has proved to be more sensible with a real plan for America but maybe it is McCain&#039;s age that is making him to behave the way he has been behaving. May God save America from McCain</description>

Terror:

1. A state of intense fear.  2.  One that inspires fear.  

Terrorism:

A systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion.</description>

		<description>What a sad state this country is in. I just finished watching a segment of the HBO series John Adams. There were a ton of problems at that time, namely the British but what did the leaders do? They united! It is so say that John Mccain says &quot;Country first&quot; but he is anything BUT! He is Mccain first - all this made of BS about Obama to scare the people - I hope Karl Rove politics will fail this time.</description>

		<description>Could what McCain and Palin are doing with this divisiveness be considered home grown terrorism?  I&#039;ll have to look up the definition, but isn&#039;t terrorism related to fear and scare tactics?</description>

With McCain and Palin in the white house what is going to happen to this country.</description>

		<description>She is right on about her comment about NOVA - It has changed dramatically over the past 10 years. 

A buddy of mine was at the rally.  There was a 3 mile line to get in so - some of those people had toliet plungers.  WAY TO GO JOE! 

As far as you people commenting on the pro-American thing.  Flat-out McCain supported us (including me) when I was in Iraq - That makes him more American to me than both Obama and Biden combined.  All I heard the whole time I was in Al Anbar was how bad our morale was and how we were losing from the whole dem party.   WRONG ANSWER.  We&#039;re at the 10 yard line and all you guys want to do is PUNT.   I watched tens of thousands of Iraqi&#039;s walk up to ten miles to vote for the 1st time in the history of their country and Obama and the gang want to pull out because they don&#039;t have the stomach to let VOLUNTEERS FINISH the job.  You&#039;re real, real concerned about the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi&#039;s that will die when the country colapses if we pull out early.  99.5% of you have been at the mall for the past 7 years and haven&#039;t been remotely touched by anything that has gone on in Iraq or Afghanistan-  By the way - we fought terrorists from over 30 countries who came to Iraq to kill us - I&#039;d put the target on my back again and again to make sure they go anywhere other than here.   Typical Dems - you sound like me little kids - Its too hard, I can&#039;t do it, I want to quit.</description>

		<description>I am so sick and tired of these labels: &#039;not real Virginia&quot;, not real (not patriotic) American…. What is next? Not real people? How come so many McCain/Palin supporters still did not realize that the entire McCain/Palin campaign is a scam? Fake maverick - McCain; fake ‘reformer’ - Palin; even fake plumber - Joe. They probably believe that they can fool most of the people most of the time. McCain and Palin bravado is just  a complete lack of knowledge. They are attacking Obama like vicious dogs, accusing him of anything and everything. It is pathetic! McCain is definitely erratic and delusional. And Palin…? Well, David Brooks said, Sarah Palin ‘represents a fatal cancer to the Republican Party’. Goodbye, ‘my friends’. I hope I will not see you again soon.

		<description>John McCain claims to be &quot;hurt&quot; by Congressman Lewis&#039;s comments.  Yet he allows supporters to sport Soviet symbols and Muslim symbols as references to Obama.  Can he be so blind with ambition not to see the hatred and division his campaign and running mate have sown?  And what is this nonsense about some parts of America being more patriotic than others?  It is time this country to repudiate these hate mongers.</description>
