Barack Obama is warning supporters that the general election fight between him and John McCain may get ugly, but the Illinois senator is vowing not to back down.

“We don’t have a choice but to win,” Obama said, joking that he has heard “folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles games.”

Well another violent quote from the past by the radical left.

I can't remember the reverend's name who made the quote in 2008, but for 2024 democrats, it seems "that the roosters have come home to roost", when it comes to toning down the rhetoric.

Funny that you mention this. I recently searched the web for the video, but it has been scrubbed apparently. I couldn’t find the video. If anyone knows of a copy, please let me know.

"We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

ALSO, Biden said to a conservative (paraphrasing), ‘You can come at me with your AR-15 but I’ve got F-15’s, buddy’. Something like that.
