Sarah Palin support mob

This is kinda scary:

Of course it’s possible you could get something equally scary filming outside of an Obama rally, but I have my doubts if you’d get anything quite as inane and racist as “Obama’s a terrorist — follow the bloodline — just look at his name.”

One woman who appears repeatedly at the end seems particularly unhinged…

One thing that’s particularly upsetting for me is that it was the Clinton campaign that first bought into some of this language, emphasizing the “Hussein” middle name, saying he wasn’t properly American, and so forth. Clinton’s campaign started a nasty ball rolling and the McCain/Palin campaign just has to give it a bit more of a push. Such is politics in modern America that both parties contribute to a movement towards fascism. Even if Obama wins — perhaps particularly if Obama wins — it’s going to be hard to get the lid back on this can of worms.

UPDATE: And another in a similar vein…
