Is The GOP Trying To Instigate Race and/or Religious War Accidentally Or On Purpose?
TPMCafe —
... But, as you can see here, McCain likens Khalidi to a neo-Nazi. Why? Not because he believes it (McCain has a long-time association with Khalidi too) but because the Republicans' latest strategy is to count on (1) Jews being such such racists that, so far as we are concerned, any association with any Arab is bad and (2) hey, this is what the McCain Republicans do. ...

... I held off on this for hours in hopes that there’d be A/V of them on the stump, but wouldn’t you know it, no luck. No matter. Obama’s radical associations + lefty media conspiracy = crazy delicious .“Apparently this is a tape with a dinner that Mr. Ayers, the former, and now still, unrepentant terrorist, who was at, and also the, one of the leading spokespersons for the PLO. Now, why that should not be made public is beyond me,” McCain told La Kalle radio. “I guarantee you, if there was a tape with me and Sarah Palin and some neo-Nazi or one of those, you think that that tape ...

After Fox Editor Defends LAT Decision To Withhold Obama Video, Fox Continues Attacking The Paper
Think Progress —
For days now, Fox News, conservative bloggers and the McCain campaign have been accusing the Los Angeles Times of “intentionally suppressing” a 2003 videotape of then-state Sen. Barack Obama attending a banquet honoring Palestinian activist Rashid Khalidi. On Tuesday, the Times said in a statement that it would not release the tape because “it was provided to us by a confidential source who did so on the condition that we not release it.”
In a blog post at 4:38 PM yesterday, Bill Sammon, the deputy managing editor of ...

... I think this is completely dishonorable. Comparing Rashid Khalidi to a neo-Nazi is just beyond vile. But even without that, it just plays on anti-Arab sentiment. Does anyone think that McCain's audiences know much about Rashid Khalidi, other than his suspiciously Arab name? For that matter, does anyone think that McCain knows much about him? The fact that he repeats the charge that Khalidi was a spokesman for the PLO, a claim that Khalidi denies, and that there is ...

... down deep enough, he will come up with a Hyde Park figure who stood in constant close contact with Barack Obama and who, unlike Ayers and Khalidi, really did influence Obamaâs thinking about law, government, and policy. He is to my way of thinking a genuine radical. His name is Richard Posner, and he appears to be the most frequently and positively cited judge and legal academic in⦠National Review." *** I think McCain's attacks on Khalidi are completely dishonorable, and that comparing Rashid Khalidi to a neo-Nazi, in particular, is just beyond vile.

... Reason tells us that an “abortion reduction agenda” is inconsistent with the stated priority of signing into law a sweeping, tax-payer funded abortion-rights legislation. Reason insists that an ideology embracing the idea of genocide - whether that means eliminating people conceived with an extra chromosome or of wiping a sovereign nation off the map - is a warped ideology that is inconsistent with a commitment to human rights. Reason wonders why an electorate is not permitted to hear what a presumptive president might say to some such ideologues, and reason becomes very ...
