Victoria Switzer, a retired social studies teacher, was on phone-bank duty one night during the Pennsylvania primary campaign. One night was all she could take: "It wasn't pretty." She made 60 calls to prospective voters in Susquehanna County, her home county, which is 98 percent white. The responses were dispiriting. One caller, Switzer remembers, said he couldn't possibly vote for Obama and concluded: "Hang that darky from a tree!"

In a letter to the editor published in a local paper, Tunkhannock Borough Mayor Norm Ball explained his support of Hillary Clinton this way: "Barack Hussein Obama and all of his talk will do nothing for our country. There is so much that people don't know about his upbringing in the Muslim world. His stepfather was a radical Muslim and the ranting of his minister against the white America, you can't convince me that some of that didn't rub off on him.

"No, I want a president that will salute our flag, and put their hand on the Bible when they take the oath of office."

Karen Seifert, a volunteer from New York, was outside of the largest polling location in Lackawanna County, Pa., on primary day when she was pressed by a Clinton volunteer to explain her backing of Obama. "I trust him," Seifert replied. According to Seifert, the woman pointed to Obama's face on Seifert's T-shirt and said: "He's a half-breed and he's a Muslim. How can you trust that?"

JESUS CHRIST you fucking people are chain e-mails the only thing you're capable of reading????

stuff like this gets me so furious i just want to punch things and then i feel like an idiot because it's an impotent and embarassing reaction. i don't know how to deal with this. i know how i want to deal with it, i just wanna punch a fool, but what the heck do you do. they don't have the capacity to think above a certain level.

fffffffffffffff

coincidentally enough there are many people with whom I work who have stated as recently as today that they will just not support him, and it's not even because they have problems with his policy (which maybe I can understand), but because his middle name is hussein and because obama sounds like osama.  it infuriates me to no end but i just shrug it off because i have neither the time nor the energy to argue with these fucks

this is really depressing!

on the other hand, konix is right. people like this are usually too HOORAH AMERICA to vote for..... the damned liberals... anyway, so.
