Remember that the lack of love to your neighbor means that you’re his murderer. If you do not kill him directly, you may indirectly inspire others to kill him, because of your attitude, declarations and speeches full of hate against him. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;When you slam others through your insults, hate, slander and contempt, you must to know that those people have a legal right to respond to your attacks. For every action there is a corresponding reaction more powerful than the action. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Remember this: "People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones". This means that you shouldn’t criticize Obama when you are equally, or more than that, at fault in number of subjects. Your records aren’t clean. You’ve many hidden wrong things that can be against you too. Others can also use vengeance against you.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Why? Because: &lt;BR/&gt;1. There is always a return lift. &lt;BR/&gt;2. Evil always pursues his author. &lt;BR/&gt;3. Who sows wind get storm as harvest. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;So, in the McCain campaign, you are sowing a bad wind and you gonna get just a nasty storm. You’re losing the confidence from the American people because you refuse to offer them the real answer to their problems. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Let me say it loud. McCain / Palin, like Adolf Hitler of Germany, you are considering yourself (white people), by cunning and devious speeches, as being "superior", beneficiary "having right to be" and being exclusive qualified for the presidency job. You’re wrong by adopting the philosophy of a wrong password which had generated anger, negation of humanity of other peoples and hate in the U.S and in the world. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;You’re saying "COUNTRY FIRST". Well. For that, you need to have this as your new political philosophy: There is in this country, neither White nor Black, nor Arabic, nor Hispanic neither Asian nor Native American, but the AMERICAN PEOPLE. We are one people. That’s the real meaning of COUNRTY FIRST. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;You need to say that to your Republican friends, and to other Americans who have not had, like you, the chance to go to school to understand that the United States of America mean unity in diversity. Speaking in a wrong way is to become the enemy number one of the American people and people around the world, who know the bad side of the history of this great country. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Otherwise, you will be held truly for responsible if something wrong happens to the Senator Obama. You went too far. For the bad seed that you will not stop planting in the hearts of the American people, you’ve really choose your own punishment and your disqualification from these elections. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Don’t be jealous of the Obama success. He’s smart, an intelligent guy from a Political Science’s University and strong lawyer from Harvard. He’s ready to lead his lovely country. Obama isn’t an Arab. He isn’t a Muslim. He isn’t a terrorist. He’s an American dreamer like me and you! That’s it! Tell that true to people. Give answers to the issues of the American people. It could be nice for you!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/865494184012705718/8592839821372708546/comments/default/3379667410177245985'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/865494184012705718/8592839821372708546/comments/default/3379667410177245985'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.theseventen.com/2008/10/on-mccains-negative-tone.html?showComment=1223712900000#c3379667410177245985' title=''/><author><name>well60</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15679720675483849631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.theseventen.com/2008/10/on-mccains-negative-tone.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-865494184012705718.post-8592839821372708546' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/865494184012705718/posts/default/8592839821372708546' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-578445337'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-865494184012705718.post-4503548498883440362</id><published>2008-10-10T23:34:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-10T23:34:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>&lt;i&gt;"McCain cannot win this election with conservat...</title><content type='html'>&lt;I&gt;"McCain cannot win this election with conservatives and Republicans alone.

Hannity has pushed the Ayers thing nightly for months now and McCain just now picked up on it. Evey interview I see of McCain and Palin lately seems to be done by Hannity.
