It is bad enough that the woman was robbed at an ATM by knife point.
With that said, I don't see how being branded with a letter B because she has had a McCain sticker on the back of her car isn't political.
Because the guy is a criminal for mugging her and a psychopath for carving a letter into her face. It's political insofar as this guy was crazy enough to do that to someone for her allegiances. It's like if he was a Red Sox fan and saw a Yankees sticker on her car and carved a B into her cheek.
There has been a lot of worry thrown around about possible retaliation from McCain followers as the election nears. Now that something has happened from the other side there isn't the same concern?
Fulldeck - you may recall in Denver, some hillbillies were arrested plotting to kill Obama. So are they considered McCain's peeps? NO WAY. Should McCain people be apologizing for them - NO WAY. You're really reaching with this one.
And for that, you get this grade A stuff
that was my last use of the cow crap jpeg, I promise.

Keating? Liddy?
Yes, I too am amazed at what people will ignore.
Obama did nothing stupid in the least, Ayers is a very respected member of the community and has been for some time. If you are in politics in Chicago, you have crossed paths with Bill Ayers.

Hudler- McCain has plenty of skeletons and nefarious characters in his closet. If the GOP were running Obama's campaign he would have immediately fired back with those things. But he hasn't, because they have read the market better. The country is in a pretty bad place right now and people don't want to hear about dirty politics or why the other guy is bad, they want to hear what you (McCain) are going to do about it. Ayers has become the focus of the campaign for McCain the last few weeks, Obama has stuck to the issues and his lead has only grown.
The problem with all this is partly the hypocrisy. McCain as stated before has just as many ties to people of that ilk. But he brings this Ayers thing up every chance he gets even at the debate, and is sending crap like this out on official RNC letterhead. Yet he takes the microphone away and says Obama is a good American. They are trying to plant a seed and it reeks of desperation. Most people would get that flyer and either be disgusted by it or ignore it. Here's the important part: there are a lot of people out there like you that will look at this and say {Obama = associates with bad people, might make poor choices}. And for each one of you there is another person that takes it further to {Obama = terrorist}. So when Obama inevitably wins the election there are all these people out there that have reached these false and dangerous assumptions about him based on some ridiculous crap. You don't see a problem with this? Country first.

I know about Keating and Liddy,they're part of the reason I feel like staying home on election day. As for Chicago politics,that place has been corrupt for so long that no one could straighten it out and I would have a hard time voting for anyone that sprang from that cesspool of politics.

You said Obama supporters would be breaking their necks bringing up scumbags if he had ties to them. I don't see or hear it.
My bad--sorry.
