The Media: "Complicit With A Campaign Of Hate & Incitement"

I am not worried about Barack Obama. I trust the Secret Service and I believe it is not the same institution it was in 1963.

However, incitement is still incitement, even if it leads to no horrific consequences. John McCain and his moll http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjxzmaXAg9E&eurl=http://signorile2003.blogspot.com/ is guilty of deliberate incitement and he clearly is indifferent to where it may lead.

There are historical precedents. Read what Mrs. Rabin had to say and draw your own conclusions.

Has there ever been a candidate as indifferent to the well-being of America as John "Country Last" McCain? As for the media which sees what McCain is doing and does not raise a word of protest, they are complicit with a campaign of hate and incitement.

The Unthinkable

When the McCain campaign cast the spell of diabolical jingoism, they have no idea of the forces they are toying with. We remember Martin Luther King's murder as a sad and tragic event. Less remembered is the fact that ground-work for King's murder was seeded, not simply by rank white supremacy, but by people who slandered King as a communist.

Racism is a luxury that, at this point, a lot of white voters can ill-afford.
