The guy in the red beret has no business calling anyone a socialist.

Thoughts:
1) As long as parents are teaching their children to call Obama "the monkey from Tarzan," is there really any end to this in sight?
2) Loved the guy that said Michelle Obama made Barack become a Christian. It's always the overbearing wife's fault.
3) I think I recognize the "he's a bum" guy - I seem to recall hearing him saying the same thing about Bobby Ayala from the upper deck of the Kingdome.

I'm getting so tired of the daily reminders of how buck-toothed and ball-less so many Americans are. It's scary; I want to run and hide under the covers.

I think Senator Obama has the right answer to things like this: Get out and vote, get everybody you know to get out and vote.

I guarantee you the people in the video are voting.

Except for the monkey-kids, everybody in that shot was ~ age >60. You will be dead soon, mo-fos, so suck it. Gays and abortionists will be marrying your children soon.

So ovine - so lumpen proletariat - so brainless - and so fucking frightening. Like thuggish Liverpool soccer fans except older and knowing better. These people are the manifestation of 'children left behind' in the '60s.

@17: hey, hey, HEY, Mrs. Fnarf is a thuggish Liverpool fan. Wait, let me rephrase that. Liverpool fans are not thugs, they're very charming and cuddly, actually. You must be thinking of Millwall. Or Red Star Belgrade, or Lazio....

I'll bet none of these people could define socialism. Is it kinda like the government taking over the banks and stuff like your fine Republican president is in the process of doing? Universal health care so one serious illness won't bankrupt a family any more? Oh the horror! Can I still be patriotic if I hate half the people that live here?

It must makes me sick to my stomach to see what "real Americans" are really like. But to corrupt young children with that filth, is just unconscionable. I think they must hate themselves deeply. So sad and just sickening

I'd hate to say Obama voters are smarter, but how many of them have you heard say that McCain is a pagan fascist? Or that Palin is a Wiccan anarchist?

Being born and raised here is the shame of my life. These knuckledraggers are most likely from outside Denver. However, many of them exist inside city limits too. Sorry.

The merest review of any historical record will demonstrate that any bashing Bush has received was well earned and caused by his own ill-advised actions.

Thus far, Barack has done nothing to undermine the morale of this country, done nothing to place us in harm's way, done nothing that has led us down into a rathole of bankrupted perdition.

Get it together, fallin' on your head, raindrop, and speak when you're spoken to.

It's a sweet family moment at the end of the video when the man carrying his little baby yells "bullshit" at the camera. That baby is gonna to grow up right!

I'd like to see the answer those people give to the question "What's a communist?" or "What's a Socialist?" My guess is that their answer would be "HUSSEIN Obama. HUSSEIN!! That's what a commie is!!"

The good news here in Colorado is that Obama is up by 12 points in the latest Rocky Mtn News/CBS 4 poll. He leads in all age groups. McCain used to have that 65+ demo, but there's been a big shift in independent voters over the last month.

I'm pretty sure the knuckledraggers in the vid above were the minority at the McCain event, but I've never seen that kind of racist, bigoted hatred at any other events, certainly not at the Democratic events I go to. The bigoted idiots are dragging down the image of the entire Republican Party at this point, it seems. If they're ever going to recover, the Republicans need to reduce the influence of people like Steve Schmidt and DickWadhams, the kind of jerks who are pushing the scare tactics and the slimy smears.

These dipshits are surprisingly on message. Today it was "Socialist", last week it was "terrorist". Hm.. what was before that? Oh yeah.. "Who is Barack Obama anyway? I just heard of him two years ago, whereas I've known Sarah Palin... um.. three years!".

Oh they do pay attention.

the fear is palpable watching the video
I feel fear for Barack Obama and his family when I see this
Are they really voting for McCain or are they complete racist fucks who use simple phrase rhetoric as their cover/reason to not vote for Obama

These are the people who put Bush into the White House. How did that work out?

I can't wait for Obama to win by a landslide so intelligent people can take the country back from these idiots.

@36: We'll just see how intelligent Obama is after four years of socialist policies and a foreign policy of walking softly but carrying no stick.

Please give an example of one socialist policy that President Barack Obama will put into place?
