McCain and Palin are exhibiting tendencies of being racists and hatemongers. Agreed?
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 06:57 PM by graywarrior
hate·mon·ger
–noun a person who kindles hatred, enmity, or prejudice in others.


rac·ism
–noun 1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.


OK, let me not mince words. They ARE racists and hatemongers.

1. Yep
You could use their pictures to define both terms, I think--or better yet, the audio of McCain calling Obama "That One".

19. To quote Bob Somerby,
"the liberal web is increasingly the province of children—children who live off imagined grievance, just as pseudo-conservative talkers have so relentlessly done. (Hillary Clinton killed Vince Foster! Barack Obama won’t wear a flag pin!)"

2. Read up on Bob Altemeyer's work

Authoritarians (aka the far right branch of the GOP) are not predictable. They are bigoted, fearful and aggressive.

3. Substitute the word "Jew" for "Terrorist" and you get a pretty clear
picture of who Grampy McShits and Mooselini are channeling.
