    THANK YOU, Pam!!! I was beginning to think myself CRAZY! I've heard, with my own ears, Obama being referred in this way many times. When most of you said you'd hadn't heard anything like this...I well, felt a bit crazy for a second there.

    Then, I kept on hearing and reading it. I should site these sources and will from now on.

    From above:
    On "Saviors Day, 2008" Louis Farrakhan Declares Barack Obama The Messiah....
    Messiah....Savior....Christ....hmm.
    You CANNOT tell me Obama doesn't know someone like Louis Farrakhan is talking about him like this. Seriously???
    ...RIP, our sweet Gini...

    Perhaps Kelly you heard what some Orange County Republican group published yesterday? An Anti-Obama flier -- showed him with watermelon, fried chicken and ribs. I heard a member of the group (or perhaps the husband of a member...not sure) defending it as no different than spaghetti and meatballs.

    At some of Ms. Palin's rallies, people have yelled out "traitor" "terrorist" and "kill him" in reference to Obama.

    Does that bother you at all?

    ALL of the above sickens me! Do you not know me at all???

    That stupid flier was intended as a reaction to Obama saying he didn't look like any of the Presidents on our money. They put his picture on a $10 food stamp and put donkey ears on him. A STUPID, CRUEL, EVIL way to react, for sure!

    It bothers me. All of that is wrong!
    But it doesn't make me think this guy deserves to be President because people are saying such nasty things about him.

    I agree with you. I regreted that posting but I was so angry at the hate.

    There are real reasons to vote. I don't think because Rush Limbaugh or Obama's supporters or anyone else uses the word "messiah" should have anything to do with the election.

    I expressed myself poorly regarding this matter. Ginger's Mom did it far better than I.

    No. I'm sorry you are having diffiuclty using the internet but I just don't have time to help you with your research. It has been so extensively covered it shouldn't be too difficult!

    Still havent found anything credible on this, so your hearsay is much like the tightly coiled piles my dogs leave in the yard.

    Sorry about that Blue. Perhaps there is a local community college where you can take some classes that will help you learn how to use the internet?

    I went to google, I typed in the words "Palin rally Obama traitor."

    http://www.google.com/search?q=palin...GGL_en___US228

    Here was the article at the top of the search: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Vote2...5987004&page=1

    I'm not sure if you are truly unfamiliar with using google or if you are just trying to ruffle feathers more.

    That was what I asked for, video proof, not reports on what a reporter reported.

    I have not been able to find video where someone shouts out "kill him", and in the video K9soul linked to stated someone yelled "off with his head" but failed to show the video proof of it. I have searched for the Video footage of these claims and found a few where people have yelled terrrorist and treason and zero of any footage where somebody yelled "kill him". 500000 google hits mean absolutly nothing if they dont show footage of the reported claim.

    So if you dont know the difference between video footage and a report of an event you shouldnt be calling someone internet challenged.

    Blue,

    Sorry if I misunderstood what you are looking for. I've seen plenty of youtube clips of people spewing hatred, I clearly heard the "terrorist" call at a clip of one of McCain's rallies, and obviously there was enough of that going on that McCain took notice and eventually spoke up about it. I don't really see yelling "terrorist" as any better than "kill him." None of it is good. That does not mean by any stretch of the imagination that all McCain supporters have those feelings. I don't doubt that the hatred exists. There has always been racism and bigotry, and when a man of a different race is running for the presidency it's bound to come out. Rallies tend to induce a mob mentality in a crowd, and it's really not that much of a stretch to think that in their fervor, some people have yelled out such things. I'm not one to blindly believe whatever the media says, but I don't find it implausible based on other things I have seen and heard.
