CNN) — John McCain – who has often praised civil rights icon John Lewis – called a statement by the Georgia congressman Saturday comparing the outbursts at recent Republican rallies to the rhetoric of segregationist George Wallace “a brazen and baseless attack” that is “shocking and beyond the pale.”

Lewis issued his statement after several days of headline-grabbing anger directed at Democratic nominee Barack Obama by some attendees at McCain campaign rallies.

Playing the ethnicity and/or race card is exactly what Obama did for his cousin Odinga in Kenya. If you read down this url, Obama is using the Kenya model to shape his campaign. Accusing the gop of bigotry is right out of the Odinga campaign book.

#122 may be a hoax. This isn't: Sekou Odinga also known as Nathaniel Burns robbed a Brinks truk in 1981. Burns was with the Black Liberation Army. Sekou Odinga is Barack's family tie to Odinga back in Kenya.

Ayers' model plan is to bring Black Liberation Army together with socialists to throw elections.

Ayers is the man behind Barack Obama.

That one while at Columbia was near lots of radicals and armed robbers. There’s even a map here.

“One of the former Black Panthers arrested in connection “with the Brinks robbery is Nathaniel Burns, a member of the Black Liberation Army. Burns is also known as Sekou Odinga. Burns/Odinga was sentenced to 25 years-to-life for attempted murder of a police officer. (ODINGA, sound familiar?)” from above url.

I expect Obama will also be using the same incitement to violence that Odinga used, when he loses the election in spite of all his cheating.

Do you happen to have a location where I can find this quote?

“Wait until the Republicans nominate an African-American conservative.”

I am going to go out on a ledge here and say that I think conservatives will be the first to elect an African-American and will be the first to elect a woman. I am not sure when or in what order, but I do think the conservatives will be the ones to do it.

Yeah I hear ya and I agree, but if it doesn't work at least we will all be entertained by Joe Biden who thinks J-O-B-S is a three letter word, while we are standing in bread lines.
