THE DANGER OF OBAMA
I resisted putting this in to words; my heart sinks at the thought of something happening. But it's being said; and I fear that the wrong person will also hear it as a call to action. If any harm comes to Senator Obama, I hope John McCain and Sarah Palin realize their responsibility in it.

NOT FLATTERING TO OBAMA, BUT SOMETHING TO CONSIDER
Daniel Larison comments about Rev. Wright and Ayers; and how Barack Obama seems to be more style than substance.

REACTIONS TO THE CURRENT CLIMATE and
CHILLING PHOTO LINK
Common sentiments expressed by a Daily Dish reader. Plus a link to the photos of the kids mentioned below. Andrew Sullivan rightly calls this "Crossing the Line".

HATE SPEECH
We need to be afraid, very afraid. For what this country is doing to itself, and for our candidates and their families. Yesterday, when McCain said "who is the REAL Barack Obama", someone shouted, "TERRORIST!", at a Palin rally yesterday, the media was booed and had things thrown at them. When Palin brought up the "pallin' around with terrorists" line; a member (members) of the crowd shouted "KILL HIM!!!".
Now today; they're shouting "TREASON!". Andrew Sullivan posted pictures that sent chills up his spine of 2 boys with Obama t-shirts that had red x's spray painted over Obama's photo.

HANNITY'S EXPOSE
Going to try to do something different today--- we'll see how it goes.

I did not see this, but Hannity had an "expose" on Obama Sunday night, in Prime Time. It featured Andy Martin, who prefaced misleading and often fabricated statements about Obama with "in my opinion", and sometimes, "in my expert opinion".
In the New York Times article yesterday, it said:
"Mr. Martin came under strong attack from liberals on Monday. Many noted that the Republican Party of Florida decided against backing his bid for the State Senate in 1996 after receiving documents from his Congressional race 10 years earlier in Connecticut listing the purpose of one of his political committees as “to exterminate Jew power in America and to impeach the judges of the U.S. Court of Appeals in New York City.”
It also states that Martin had a failed attempt to be the Republican challenger to Obama in his 2004 Senate Race. So it appears he has been unable to successfully run a campaign in Illinois, Connecticut AND Florida.
