17. It doesn't even make any sense.
Manson was a murderer.

Jesus was a community organizer.

3. I'm not going to defend Coleman or Tawd, believe me,
but you cannot control what kinds of sign idiots are going to bring to rallies.

Granted, McPOW/Palin have nurtured the environment in which this kind of thinking - Manson? - is acceptable, but, still, it's not Coleman's fault.

I have just defended Norm Coleman. I deserve to die.

6. Actually they do control what kind of signs are up at rallies.
In fact the use of 'homemade' looking signs is one of their new tricks. You do not get an off-message sign up front at a Palin rally. No way.

10. Bingo.
The "home made" signs do NOT make into an event without someone saying it's OK... (the guy with the monkey might be an exception as he was constantly hiding it inside his jacket)... and MANY of the "home made" signs are actually given to rally goers as they enter the event!

11. Is that right?
I'm so out of the loop.

Well, then, ignore my post.

12. Oh, that's lovely..........
I was off the airwaves for all of 2007 and part of 2008, and missed a lot of things in the news. I guess this was one of them.

It just gets worse and worse, doesn't it?

Thanks for the enlightenment.

13. When they need 4 cops to escort a 61 year old librarian from the premises for carrying
a McCain=Bush sign, you know there's a problem.

19. Oh, I knew there was a problem
long before that. So did you.

You know, if Obama wins, and we see an end to this bullshit, it's going to feel something like what the Founding Fathers must have experienced when the Constitution was ratified.

Free at last.........................

21. No, but he was in tight with the republican party in Washington. Check this out:
Bundy worked on the re-election campaign of Washington's Republican Governor Dan Evans. Evans was elected and he appointed Bundy to the Seattle Crime Prevention Advisory Committee. Bundy's political future seemed secure, when in 1973 he became assistant to Ross Davis, chairman of the Washington State Republican Party.

7. That would be funny if Charlie Manson were funny
What they have against community organizers is that COs get people to vote that they think should not vote.

8. Did Todd Palin, the co-governor of Alaska, ever graduate from High School?
I wonder what *his* favorite publications are (aside from the secessionist screeds and the John Birch Society's Weekly Reader).

18. Jim Jones, another relegious whack, started as a community organizer
Years and years before he discovered Kool-Aid®, he was a highly respected community activist in the San Francisco Bay area.
