Team McTerrorist DEFENDS Their Crowds Calling For Obama's Death!

From NBC's Mark Murray
Earlier today, Obama remarked on recent outbursts of "Traitor!" "Terrorist!" and "Kill him!" at McCain campaign events. "It's easy to rile up a crowd," Obama said. "Nothing's easier than riling up a crowd by stoking anger and division. But that's not what we need right now in the United States."

In response, McCain senior adviser Nicolle Wallace released this statement, NBC's Kelly O'Donnell reports. "Barack Obama's assault on our supporters is insulting and unsurprising. These are the same people obama called 'bitter' and attacked for 'clinging to guns' and faith. He fails to understand that people are angry at corrupt practices in Washington and Wall Street and he fails to understand that America's working families are not 'clinging' to anything other than the sincere hope that Washington will be reformed from top to bottom."

"Attacking our supporters is a new low for the campaign that's run more millions of dollars of negative ads than any other in history."

*** UPDATE *** McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers adds in another statement: “Barack Obama’s attacks on Americans who support John McCain reveal far more about him than they do about John McCain. It is clear that Barack Obama just doesn’t understand regular people and the issues they care about. He dismisses hardworking middle class Americans as clinging to guns and religion, while at the same time attacking average Americans at McCain rallies who are angry at Washington, Wall Street and the status quo."

1. Will Brian Rogers now throw McCain under the bus?
If Obama "has attacked McCain supporters", than McCain's responses today were attacks, too. :popcorn:

2. They continue to incite /encourage rage and what some use to call it
in the olden days, "lynch mob". Mccain say's one thing while he knows good and well that his minions are saying and promoting the exact opposite.

3. I hardly know what to say. I had to walk away from the 'puter
until I cooled down a bit. This is just the most PATHETIC response I've ever seen.
There just are no words anymore to describe how PISSED OFF I AM.
There just are no words anymore to describe how FUCKING FILTHY THESE PEOPLE ARE.
There just are no words anymore to describe how DISHONEST THESE PEOPLE ARE.
There just are no words anymore to describe how MUCH I HAVE GROWN TO HATE THEM.

I have to go make some phone calls and send some more e-mails.

GODDAMMIT these "people" don't deserve to LIVE let alone be elected to ANY kind of office.
NO, I'm not advocating violence against them, but holy shit.
