McCain Camp Hate Rips Apart Families
Edited on Mon Oct-27-08 02:37 PM by SargeUNN
I was recently told by my sister that the hatred spewed by the McCain Camp has now reached her and her daughter. My sister is an Obama supporter and recently talking to her daughter she was told by her son in law that she couldn't talk politcs on the phone with her own daughter. Today that same son in law called her and said she was not allowed to talk to her grandchildren because she supported that (insert n word here) and they would not allow her to talk to the children again. The son in law is a Bush supporter and of course McCain supporter.

I called McCain Offices and demanded that Senator McCain as a senator of Arizona come out and make a firm stand against the racial outrages and that he strongly condemns such not as a candidate, but as Arizona Senator. The woman told me that she wouldn't be able to pass it on to McCain because it was "a campaign thing" so it didn't fall under his job as Senator.

This goes to show what a filthy and cowardly man that John McCain is and why I urge everyone to attend the November 1 event mentioned at the front of this site http://thejefffariasshow.com . When a Senator doesn't consider race baiting that has gotten this far out hand as his job as Senator then he should NOT be a Senator.

SHAME ON JOHN McCAIN THE COWARD of ARIZONA!!!
NOTE:
I live in Phoenix AZ so this is how they respond to the people they are suppose to represent

1. Your sister's husband is an abuser.
Your sister's husband won't let her talk on the phone with her own mother unless he's cleared the subjects? That's abuse. He won't let his children talk to their grandmother because of politics? That's child abuse. And he uses the "n" word in front of his children?

The man's an abuser and I recommend that you help your sister get help. Abusers usually don't stop with verbal and emotional abuse. They ramp up to hitting and sometimes killing. I'm serious about this. You have a much bigger problem in your family than political disagreements.

10. I agree
Been there, lived through it, finally got away from it. No one should have to put up with it.

6. It's the sister's SON-IN-LAW, not her husband.
I agree the guy is abusive, IF his wife (the OP's niece) is passively letting him push her around. However, the OP didn't make clear what the daughter's political position is. If both husband and wife oppose Obama for racist reasons, or if the wife is allowing herself to be dominated by a racist husband, the OP's sister should be wondering where she went wrong in raising her daughter to be either racist or a doormat.

I have come across some racist, hate-filled people in this election. What McCain/Palin have done to stir them up is despicable.

2. the freepers are getting scared and angry. They are acting out and trying to control something
in his case, he can only try to control your sister. I dont know how these "mixed marriages" work. My 1st was a Dem v. Rep marriage and did not work. My new SO is so progressive and the change is refreshing.

Tell your sis to watch out next week as her hubby's gonna be mad.

-see ya at the Jeff Chat (Islanddave aka Dave)

7. Point of Clarity
My sister lives in MS. and her daughter lives in CA. She tried to move to CA. to live after losing her home in Katrina, but due to this same son in law scaring her she went back and lived with friends in MS until she was able to get her house fixed up enough to live in. The daughter and son in law have a construction business and yet I had to help get my sister back to MS even though the daughter and son in law had begged her to move to CA. She is scared of this freak and will not go to their place even if she could afford it.

4. This isn't a McCain issue.. it's an issue with your sister's Son-in-Law
I don't think it would matter much what kind of campaign McCain was running.. this guy seems to be the problem. McCain is responsible for some things, but how rabid supporters treat their families is not one of them.

That family needs to be in consuling. If the daughter allows her husband to tell her when she can & can't talk to her own mother, that's something that she has to deal with.

Men like that make me sick - but women have to learn to stand up for themselves. I'm really sorry your sister is going through this.

9. He sounds like a classic spouse abuser. I hope your niece can escape from him
someday. As for your sister, she probably needs to back off and hope her daughter
decides not to put up with that for much longer. If he isn't violent yet, I wouldn't be surprised if he
crosses that line soon.

I'm so sorry your family has to deal with this. :-(

11. I see it as freeper types who have no leader now.
They're confused, angry. Bush is irrelevant, rush and hannity are spiritual leaders, but have no real power to govern, they were taught to hate McCain cuz he "voted with the libs most of the time". I keep thinking of that Star Trek episode where a computer controlled everyone on a planet. When the computer was destroyed, the people wandered around wailing "Help us, guide us".
