I got your October Surprise RIGHT HERE, McNasty...
One of the most persistent racist memes is the notion that all Black men would rape White women if given the chance. This meme has turned deadly...with frequency...in the deep South, most notably in the brutal murder of young Emmett Till in 1955. There were lynchings as late as 1981 in Alabama.
Now we have a Republican operative, apparently an up-and-comer in the GOP ranks, who calls in a false report about a black man mugging and then carving a backwards "b" in her face with a knife. Before the little ninny had an attack of conscience and 'fessed up, both McCain and Palin called her in the hospital, and as you can see from the video clip, it was a McCain operative who was pushing the story to the press and to Matt Drudge.
I hope the numbskull gets TIME for this. Because this could have been so much worse.

And oh yeah, in other news...Al-Qaeda endorsed...MCCAIN.

If you're going to play the Ayers card, we're playing the Liddy card.
Who is G. Gordon Liddy?
That's a quick introduction to a man who became notorious for his involvement in Watergate, and who, as a "hot talk" talk show host has repeatedly incited his hard right audience to violence.
Here's a primer on Watergate for those who didn't live through it: these two segments are from a PBS documentary on the Watergate Affair: the break=in to Democratic Party headquarters, and the coverup that occurred afterward.
A burglary. On US soil. To provide "intel" for the benefit of the re-election campaign of a sitting POTUS. This was not the first time Liddy had done illegal acts on behalf of President Nixon: he had masterminded the bugging and surreptitious copying of papers at Daniel Ellsberg's therapist's office. Ellsberg was the journalist who found and exposed the Pentagon Papers, and Nixon wanted revenge. Liddy provided it.
Liddy did 5 years of a 20 year sentence for his part in masterminding the Watergate burglary. His sentence was inexplicably commuted by President Jimmy Carter. He attempted to start a private security company but failed. However, he has had a second life as a "famous for being famous" character who did bit parts in movies and TV, and then settled in to his current career in "hot talk" radio.
As a "hot talker" he played into the hatred of the ultra-Right for the Clintons and for the Clinton administration. Right after the Waco incident, Liddy told his audience:
Oooo-kay. So you want your listeners to assassinate government agents. And this is better than an ex-radical who wanted to blow up the Pentagon back in the 1960s? Who did his acts when Barack Obama was all of 8 years old? And who doesn't have a platform to spew his unrepentant hatred on "hot talk" radio? Liddy never apologized for his statements on that or any other day his radio show appeared.
Liddy supports McCain. He supported McCain way back in 1988, when he hosted a fund-raiser for McCain's ill-fated 2000 Presidential campaign at his mansion. He has donated to McCain's 2008 campaign. And when McCain went on Liddy's show last year, McCain said:
Burglary. Dirty Tricks. What Nixon colorfully referred to as "ratfucking." Assassination of government agents when those government agents report to a Democratic administration. This is the kind of associate McCain has called "my friend." This is the kind of associate McCain has had since the last decade, if not longer. Seriously, Ayers is small potatoes compared to G. Gordon Liddy. Principles and philosophies that keep our nation great? I don't think so.

John McCain <3s ACORN.
"What makes America special is what's in this room tonight." -- John McCain
I mean, there is nothing wrong with supporting hard-working community organizers. However, to turn around and diss them in your speeches...that takes a SPECIAL kind of douchebaggery.

Is this the kind of person we want in the Highest Office In The Land??

"That one."
Notice this during tonight's debate?
John McCain's real feelings about minorities leaked out in that one brief moment. This will go down along with Ross Perot's "you people" comment in his address to the NAACP in 1992, and George Felix Allen's notorious "Macaca" remark that did his senatorial campaign in.
This might be the moment the wheels came off the Double Talk Express.
Update: the viral intertube video d00dz did it again! Enjoy this most excellent mashup. This will go down with Bill O'Reilly's dance mix flip-out as a political viral video classic.

More about the Keating Five.
This one is absolutely blistering. McCain is either cursed with the worst judgment of anyone to darken the doors of Congress or is actively a crook.

Johnny McCain's Cartoon Funtime!
After watching a human cartoon tonight debating Joe Biden, I thought a little cartoon funtime was in order. Woo woo! Here comes the Swiftboat!
Just for fun: No Cunt for old men.
OK, I've been dead serious here until now. As we wait for the SNL sketch...I mean the VP Debate...tonight, I've got a campaign funny for you. This has got to be the most hilarious viral video of campaign 2008. The Public Service Administration deserves to be seen more on the media.
However: this is NSFW. The bowdlerized version is just not as funny. The humor in this is all about that four-letter word that McCain called his wife.
