John McCain: If your campaign does not stop equating Sen. Barack Obama with terrorism, questioning his patriotism and portraying Mr. Obama as "not one of us," I accuse you of deliberately feeding the most unhinged elements of our society the red meat of hate, and therefore of potentially instigating violence.
At a Sarah Palin rally, someone called out, "Kill him!" At one of your rallies, someone called out, "Terrorist!" Neither was answered or denounced by you or your running mate, as the crowd laughed and cheered. At your campaign event Wednesday in Bethlehem, Pa., the crowd was seething with hatred for the Democratic nominee - an attitude encouraged in speeches there by you, your running mate, your wife and the local Republican chairman.
Shame!
John McCain: In 2000, as a lifelong Republican, I worked to get you elected instead of George W. Bush. In return, you wrote an endorsement of one of my books about military service. You seemed to be a man who put principle ahead of mere political gain.

Liberals call anger hatred. Are we conservatives angry? yes. Hatred is something else.
Nothing p!sses off a leftist like being called a fascist (and the best part is, you can show how it’s true).
Go over to the link and leave some comments. The comments are all so nasty to good Americans. I left them something to think about.
Angry? I think not so angry as scared to death. Fear manifests as anger.
Frank, if you don’t want your candidate associated with terrorism...perhaps you should encourage your candidate to associate with a better class of friends.
Once again, mistaking high feeling for hatred. Hatred is not the absence of love, it is the abnegation of love, love that could be extended, but for purposes of tactical advantage, is withheld. Any hatred is coming from the other side, as they are seeking the tactical advantage, and cannot concede the validity if any differing opinion.
What we have here is high feeling, emotion that perhaps no consideration is being given your point of view, that you are the one being suppressed.
What race are Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn? They are white actors going about in figurative blackface, minstrels of discord and chaos. And all the more despicable for the charade.
They have not helped the the Americans of African origin one whit. In fact, they have probably set back real race relations by a hundred years or more. No more “content of character”, the color of the skin is the overriding imperative with these radicals.
I want to get back to examining content of character.
I am seriously considering the purchase of a 12-gauge pump shotgun, loaded with double-ought shot.
Pretty good way of making an instaneous examination of content of character.
Hey Frank, you tool, as a conservative we have lived with the most venomous hatred for years.
Get used to it, If your boy wins, we aren’t going to be silent, unless your commie facist messiah kills us.
pay back is hell you weenie.

Jonah Goldberg: "Liberal Fascism, The Secret History of America's Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning."
Its easy now to see what these Obama prigs are.
I read that, followed by Road to Serfdom (FA Hayek).
Yes, the left are collectivist fascists,
and there is no “little bit of socialism” that can ever be implemented without a slide into tyranny.
Blood and fire will be on the streets either way. If Obama wins, they will be like winning the NBA championship and if Obama loses, they will riot that it was racist! We lose for awhile either way. Keep your powder dry. Vote McCain/Palin to keep America in the right hands.
America is beginning to awaken!
We conservatives have been listening to pure hatred toward Bush and Cheney, death wishes and the like, for 8 years. Where have you been?
This guy compared his father, unfavorably, to Obama’s Rev. Wright. Nice that this comes out on the same day as Christopher Buckley’s endorsement of Obama.
After eight years of lies and insane hatred the Left has only itself to blame. Pour it on.
The right stands up for itself, finally, and it’s called hatred. The left demonstrates, protests, etc. and it’s called what?
That’s what democrats call “patriotism”.
The Sun, then, was regularly ranked as one of the ten great newspapers in the US. It may still be rated that highly. But if so, the only reason the Sun is rated that way,k today, is that the competition has gotten so incompetent and dishonest.
Mencken would never have let this drivel get past his red pencil.

The Declaration, the Constitution, parts of the Federalist, and America's Owner's Manual, here.
Agreed. THEY are the dangerous ones, not the generally rare assorted nuts that inhabit every single sector of society. I am genuinely concerned that if Obama wins, that may be the last free election in our nation. If he wins, he'll have a larger majority in Congress than now exists for the Dems, and he'll be able to push through "temporary" emergency powers (due to this financial crisis that his masters and sympathizers have created at just the perfect time - for him). "Temporary" in the same manner that Hitler's powers were temporary after the Reichstag Fire. His campaign has already tried to shut up the NRA by threatening TV and radio stations with lawsuits and action by the FCC to review their licenses; he and his ilk are desperate to restore the "Fairness" Doctrine in order to shut up Rush, Hannity, Ingraham, Savage, etc., etc.; and he's paid $800,000 to ACORN to register new voters (like dead ones, and some guy who they registered 72 times). In short, he does NOT believe in letting the people really have a voice in their own future - just like any good Marxist or Leninist. Look also for an Executive Order banning all imports of firearms, ammo, parts and reloading components for civilian sale, and for an attempt to pressure gun and ammo manufacturers to have exclusive contracts with Uncle (as in no sales to civilians, or you don't get the contract).
Very, very scary. I wouldn't say any of this if it weren't for the people with whom he's associated for the past 25 years - but many of them are true radicals, intent on acquiring power at any price. I just hope and pray that Obama loses. I'll take the riots over him in charge of the armed forces and various alphabet soup agencies any day, and even every day.
He cannot name a single instance of McCain or Palin inciting hate towards Obama. Pointing up Obama’s record and history is not inciting hate. If it is, then what’s the point of having campaigns? Why not have a one-party State, according to Schaeffer’s rules of decorum, and get on with it?
This is the same old junk Democrats always whine about. Dirty campaign, swiftboating, inciting hatred! They don’t make the rules of the game, and I don’t play by their rules. They’re like little children in the schoolyard, wanting to change the rules when they don’t like the way the game is going.
