im from this area and alot of the people here are older. they still have the 1950's mindset that anyone thats not white and christian are wrong. alot of it has to do with what your parents taught you too. if you grow up to think that anyone that looks different than you or is different than you is either a bad person or is wrong.
This makes me sick, I'm in awe of the ignorance and stupidity of these backwards inbred disgusting excuses for human beings. This world would be a better place if those pathetic pieces of shit were eliminated.
ugh since when does Obama think white people are trash?! I think THESE people ARE white trash maybe they don't have a t.v. in their house which is obviously why they would be voting for john mccain or even showing up to a sarah palin rally but they should think about what they're saying to a camera, this is a christian country and Obama's not a christian- yet their at a palin rally, a lady who's daughter is underage and pregnant maybe she should spend less time in the tanning bed or hunting and more time with her other daughters so they dont turn out like bristol
Wow, it is really disturbing that people in this country are so ill informed about Barack Obama. If you support McCain/Palin, that is totally fine but don’t support them out of fear that Barack Obama is a terrorist, black elitist, Muslim (not that it should matter), etc. Barack Obama, was raised by his WHITE mother and grandparents so I have a hard time believing that this man has any ill will towards white people and I definitely don’t think that he looks down on anyone. Also, as far as Obama being a terrorist, the accusations wouldn’t even come up if the man’s middle name wasn’t Hussein. I didn’t know that it was okay to accuse someone’s character based on their name, a name that they didn’t choose for themselves.
I'm an American living in Europe and because of these kind of people I'm ashamed to tell people im from the US. Everyday people point out how stupid Americans are and our country is nothing but a big mess. But all of them have the same opinion about Obama; He will change the world. If he is elected, Europeans are going to appreciate Americans much more for actually electing a president who REALLY knows whats going on outside of the US and cares. So please, MAKE A CHANGE. Vote OBAMA '08!!
Why the would you post anything from AL JAZEERA!!! you have to be out of your mind! posting this from this shows how you have no clue, and to all the people telling these people to shut up, if you don't like what they have to say to bad, move to another country, its their right to free speech, but if anyone says bad about Obama, all you liberals have a cow, but it sure is no problem saying all the nasty things about those on the right! you have such a double standard.
It's unfortunate that they feel the need to judge him by his color; however, I feel the same way they do about the terrorist issues and Muslim relations. We ARE a country founded on Christian values. Read Revelations and you will see that we're nearing the end of time. I think that scares people in relation to Obama. I also think that it's people like those in that part of Ohio that make Christians look bad. I love everybody!
OMG….I am ashamed to admit that I am from Ohio. These people are soooo ignorant. I totally agree with Bloom, these people should be educated before speaking in public.
Re: State ziti – Ummm, do these white people speak educated to you? You know, the ones in the video? Just because Obama was raised by whites, doesn't mean he gets his intellect from them. I speak just like him, and I'm 100% black, baby. Don't be ignorant like them.
Hmmm!! i dont think these people are ignorant really, dont get me wrong i dont agree with them for one second i just think they are ill educated.
its not their fault where they grew up or how they grew really and you think they are extreme go to Iran and you'll see extreme or china and you'll see extreme and for everyone saying lets stop using the race card i agree lets but do you honestly think if obama hadnt of been black he would be standing where he is today?!?! of course he wouldnt.
If you are being attacked by people in Europe for being American, then stand up for yourself. Do you attack these same people for being where they are from? And you honestly think electing Obama, a man with no foreign relations experience, that is going to apologize for us defending ourselves in a post 911 world is good. Get some pride in your country. You may disagree with Bush, but that doesn't mean you should hang your head in shame or apologize.
This news piece is Obama rhetoric, I've seen clips of Obama supporters saying Palin is a slut and McCain is too old. Is that right either? That is agism and sexism. Racism exists and its horrible, but this report is clearly an effort to pull out the worst of people and portray people from Ohio in an inaccurate way. If this were a balanced report, perhaps they would interview people from Cincinnati and Cleveland. The reporter wanted to paint McCain's campaign and its supporters as racist and all you people bought into it.
this is why McCain will probably still win.
This was filmed in Ohio, in the North. Can you even imagine what the responses would have been if this had been filmed in any of the Southern "redneck" states?
I'm Canadian, and Ohio is one of the states that is often described as being similar to here, but I think this video highlights the differences in our cultures.
Ignorance is right.
Educate your fellow Americans!
Why don't you be UNbiased for once and post the Obama youtube clips too. There are the same type of people that are out there spouting off for Obama. So sick of your liberal attempt at true news. Stick to gossip Perez, thats what you are best at.
PEREZ: This is extremely irresponsible of you. Why do you keep reporting on these idiots. I AM A SARAH PALIN SUPPORT and I am faaar from racist. Your making it look like everyone who supports her is a redneck, racist asshole. That's simply NOT TRUE.
What do you expect when you never leave your county, don't associate with anyone who isn't in your church and fear anything or anyone that is different than you.
Re: LaBella – Ties with terrorists? Do you realize that Ayers is a Professor - DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR - at the University of Illinois? So should we also condemn his students and their parents for having "ties" with this terrorists? Should we go after the University and insist that they cut their "ties" with this terrorist and fire him?
Like Dr. Phil always says.. if you're going to play the "what if" game, play it to the end.
This kind of shit talk starts violence and wars. Perhaps these folks should do some REAL research on their own and not be brainwashed by Mrs. Palin or her political party. This group of people do sound like a KKK revival! Obama has addressed every single accusation that the repbulicians have dug up. He is not a muslim nor is he a terrorist. Shame on all of those arrogant, uninformed hate mongers. Obama08. Oh, thanks for letting an old lady post here.
I'm extremely offended by the racism in some of these quotes. But other quotes are right on target. Obama went to a racist church for 20 years, where his pastor spewed equally offensive anti-American, anti-white sentiment from the pulpit. Voters have reason to be concerned that Obama is comfortable with a spiritual mentor who preaches that kind of hatred. Obama IS a friend of unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers, who bombed the Pentagon and Capitol. They are not casual acquaintances as Obama claims. Ayers hired Obama to chair an organization he co-founded. They had $50 million to spend on education. They used it to propagandize school children. Obama IS a wolf in sheep's clothing in that he is pretending to be a moderate when his life's work, his voting record, and his closest associations show that he is a far-left liberal, with radical and Communist mentors. His tax plan is convoluted to obscure the biggest transfer of wealth and power from the individual to the government. Many Americans are rightly afraid by what this means for our national security and individual liberty. While racism is unacceptable, I'm glad to see some Ohioans are seeing through Obama's rhetoric. It's also worth noting that this video was edited and framed by Al Jazeera, an Arabic network known for its anti-American bias.
the best part, YOU IDIOTS, is that a lot of the lower class people ignorantly voting for obama [yeah, just because they picked your fav doesn't mean they did so intelligently] would talk just as closed-minded about the white people if some obscure newsman shoved a camera in their face.
my goodness, you people don't even realize how dumb you are!!!
keep it up you rednecks. the more you speak, the more people will vote for obama. seriously, you're the best thing that could ever happen the the obama campaign. i'm loving this. these are the people that mccain said he's proud of. the sad thing is that these morons' votes count as much as mine. oh well. it's the american way. you don't have to take an IQ test to register.
Re: thesweetleaf –
really? so… because a marginal fraction of a population has beliefs that don't mesh with yours, you will call an entire area a landfill? where exactly are you from? and no, dear, I'm not talking about the crackhouse where your mom conceived you.
THESE are the exact people who give Americans a bad name. Most of you are cool, but it's shitheads and racist pricks like these that put a damper on the country as a whole. These people are brainwashed!!!
Re: jennaallen – It's not like Perez Made this video!!! OK, I'm sure there were 1-2 normal people at the rally, but from what I saw on that video…. EVERYONE was a nutjob, racist, ignorant asshole. If it's "not true" as you claim, then why are all those people behaving that way? I didn't even know people acted that way in public until I saw this video. You should be ashamed of your fellow Palin supporters, not defending them.
It is amazing in this age, that there are so many racists still in existance. They are making the Republicans look like White Supremists. This benefits NO ONE! They don't even acknowledge at the fact that Barack's mother is a white woman from Kansas.
White supremacy is a racist[1] ideology based on the assertion that white people are superior to other racial groups. The term is sometimes used specifically to describe a political ideology that advocates the social and political dominance of whites.[2]
White supremacy, as with racial supremacism in general, is rooted in ethnocentrism and a desire for hegemony. It is associated with varying degrees of racism as well as a desire for racial separation. White supremacy has often resulted in anti-black racism and antisemitism, although it has also involved prejudice and discrimination against a wide variety of "non-white" groups.
Different forms of white supremacy have different definitions of 'white', and not all white supremacist organizations agree on which group is the greatest enemy.[3] White supremacists frequently consider Jews to be the gravest threat to their cause, because they can assimilate much more easily than other ethnic groups.
The clip looks like it was filmed in Phoenix, Arizona. Wow, there are people like that in other states???? Go figure. It's the year 2008, but the good ol' boy network is still alive. It's really sad..
Re: GrandmaS – ma'am, you are an idiot. palin has said ABSOLUTELY NOTHING racist.
On the other hand… Obama walks throuh the ghetto, saying, "These are the people I wanna help." How many white people live in ghettos? And don't give me that, "My cousin/friend/gardener lived/lives in the ghetto," one example of a white person does not prove your point.
TALK ABOUT UNEDUCATION! DO YOU DO ANY THINKING FOR YOURSELF?!
well, this is what germans and other europeans think, americans are like! If I meet people in the states that ask if England is anywhere near the british isles, then I don't wonder anymore, how Bush had such a long time as a president…
OMG that was terrible!! Palin is filled with holy spirit? Then my ass is filled with bags of gold!! I really don't care what people want to vote but comments like these make me wonder if these people should be helping to decide the future leader of the Country at all. They should just stay at home and watch Jerry Springer. Very Scary!!!
i am from ohio and i just wanted to say that not all of us are uneducated racist hicks. i am not voting for obama but it has nothing to do with the color of his skin people like the people on the video have no right to vote
I am a Canadian and I think our low attendance to the polls was embarrassing, but this is even worse!!!! It's hard to believe that people in north america in the 21st century can still have such narrow minded, uneducated, racist views. It's extremely sad and disappointing to see that in one of the foremost nations of the world some people still hold onto such antiquated ideals. Vote for who you think is right people! Colour of skin or religion is not an issue!
From an outsider looking in (I live in AUS), this video is appalling!! It seems middle America has NO idea what is going on in the world around them. Get yr head out of your butts and open your eyes!!
One more point, I watched a little of the Presidential debate and Healthcare was discussed. The USAs healthcare system is a joke and an embarrassment. I was shocked to hear that the avg healthcare policy is over $5000K per year. I pay a little over $1200K….this is one of the top policies.
Guys, start asking for uniform healthcare…it's a god given right!!!
Re: AMO – AMO AS AN OBAMA SUPPORTER I THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST AT LEAST THERE ARE A FEW SNART REPUBLICANS LEFT HERE IN THE GREAT USA AFTER ALL…. THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SHOULD REPUDIATE THIS PEOPLE AND RUN ON ISSUES INSTEAD OF THIS RACIAL HATRED THE WORD MUSLIM AND TERROST IN THIS RALLIES ARE CODE WORDS FOR THE N WORDS ETC. ITS IS SICK WHAT THIS RALLIES ARE SPEWING AND BTW ALL OBAMA RALLIES ARE POSITIVE AND NONE OF THIS BS HAPPENS THERE ARE COUNTLES VIDS OF MACCAIN PALIN RALLIES IN YOU TUBE THAT ARE JUST DOWN RIGHT SCARY. THE RNC NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS
I'm ashamed and embarrassed to be from Ohio. Please know that not all of white Ohioans feel this way. I'm voting for Obama because McCain/Palin are IDIOTS.
Re: vanityeverlastingbonet –
HOOOLLLLLDDD UPPPPP YOU HOPE someone is assassinated? You HOPE a father of two children is killed? Not matter your affiliation or party that is disgusting and morally deplorable!!!! You are calling Obama out for wanting to help Africa and for "connections" with Rev. Wright in and effort to attack Obama's character, however YOU are wishing death on someone and want to watch it "over and over". I think that says something about YOUR character NOT Obama's! You kinda lost your right to judge him for actions when your spewing hate speech and making a joke about his death! AND If you are even that UGLY TRANI in the photo and are actually Black as you claim than what you said about Obama's color is even worse! You do not have to agree with what everyone in your ethnic group does, BUT you are shoving them all into a social context! You hate yourself and your cultural heritage that much?! Again hunny, that doesn't say ANYTHING about you culture or reflects ANY bad light on Blacks, it reflects something sad onto YOU! Get a life and doctor and learn to love yourself so you can stop hating you culture and wishing death on people like a sad hate monger. Oh and if you DO NOT like Perez then DO NOT sign up for his site!
Obama will win and you'll all regret not supporting him in the 1st place because of all he will do to repair and rebuild this country!!! OBAMA '08!!
Re: CaraC – Please give it a rest with the Al-Jazeera. Just go on YouTube and you can find amateur videos like this from many other McPalin rallies. I'm sure there are also a-holes at Obama rallies (although not as many), and if people want to find them and film them they should go ahead. It's not unAmerican to let people know this kind of intolerance exists, is it?
this makes me so fucking angry how ignorant people are! They honestly believe half of the things they think about obama? he hates white people, black people will take over america? he is a terrorist? GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: hollyholly8 – There were 5000 people at this rally. They showed interviews with 10-15 or so people. How many they really interviewed, we don't know. It's obvious that they edited this video to make the Ohio Valley look like a bunch of racist rednecks. To say there were 1 or 2 "normal" people is a gross understatement. These few do not represent the views of the many.
wow i am not that shocked to see ignorant middle america. i do not think these people speak from any knowledge except they are fearfulof a black man running this country. he is not a terrorist, he is not anti-white, christianity and the holy spirit should not have an effect on how you can successfully run this country. quit living in your hill billy farms and get with real america where this economy crisis is effecting us!!!! when u live on a farm with straw in ur teeth why woul u care about the economy??
Haha I guess I'm a baby killer and a terrorist then according to these people. They should really get some education before speaking. All this is doing is making them look stupid and ignorant.
sadly i'm not shocked people still fell this way they are whats wrong with this country and they need to be proven wrong with there mindless minds vote obama we need him
this is scary and sad at the same time. these people come off as extremely uneducated and scarily ignorant….but i guess they are "if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck…it must be a duck." (isn't that what he said??)
Re: CaCaCarKeys – the best thing is fir this vid to go viral just like the palin maccain mob that will TURN OFF THE INFEPENDENTs MACCAIN CANNOT WIL WITH THE BASE AND THIS IS THE BASE OF THE RNC this people that live in fear of MUSLIMS BLACKS AND ANYTHING UNCHIRSTIAN well they have no jobs and their jobs will not be comming back their children are moving away to the cities and maybe they will have a better acceptance for other people. THIS IS AMERICA A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS
u know what? this election has turned out to be really scary and interesting at the same time. I had to laugh while watching the video, but it isn't funny at all.
Re: JayPea – Palin is a typical AMERICAN family. In case you forgot we are in America. I agree with you on the abuse of power, firing her brother-in-law, but she has more experience to be VICE president then Barak's 43 days of experience to be PRESIDENT. I agree that you should go out and vote, everyone should! But, please inform yourself with every possible news outlet available not just from what you see on other blog posts!
P.S. Spell check in a new and fabulous invention. Perhaps you could use it!
This kind of behavior happens all over the world! Its' schoking and scaring!
I'm not american but WE ALL KNOW that this world have "a president" (lider) and he comes always from USA (it's a fact!)…that he might be KILLED! This won't be the first or last time to kill a black lider (remember Mr. King?)!
If he wins, which I hope, the world will be in a constant danger. I mean: people who don't like "black power" willing to kill him and if they do, the other side…people fighting against his death!
I hope our wolrd is prepare to see that skins, sizes and other issues DOESN'T MATTER!
Why don't you put some of the crazy left wing talk! these people are extreme, but they have a good point. Where did you get this interview? Talking about about hate,,,,the left are the most hateful people out there. The people have good points, but your desire to "better" and more "advanced" than the dumb right is keeping you believing the the divisive hate speech of the left. AL Jazeera??????? Of course they want to say that McCain supporters are racist, because no one wants to be called a racist…..so you gotta vote for Obama to show that you are not a racist. Even though the left is the most hateful and non tolerant side of this political debate. You should be arrested for treason for putting this intolerant, divisive, propaganda on your site.
I agree its terrible, but i have heard much worse here said about mccain then that. So obviously these comments ar outrageous but it shows us one must look at themselves and wonder… Are we that outrageous to?
Okay, for starters, I am NOT defending these people. However–this is St. Clairsville, in South-Eastern Ohio, an area made up of a high level of uneducated, lower middle class workers. It's even considered a part of Appalachia. Now, I am NOT saying everyone from that region is stupid or racist–my own family comes from very close by! But they have been raised to have one, very sheltered point of view. They need to be educated, but they're scared of change. Just realize that this is not representative of all of Ohio. And pity them, don't hate them.
Wait until one day Sharia law will be mandated in our country in the name of tolerance….And if you are against in, you too will be branded ignorant and a racist. People, please start thinking for yourself and not letting politicians, celebrities, and dictators form communist countries tell you what you should think. We care too much about what people think about us in this society and our government knows that and is using that to gain control of the masses. Remember, that it is easier to control the masses if they are ignorant and reliant upon the governemnt. Educated yourself!
When i went to comment this thread, the number of comments was 666… creepy.
Anyways i'm from Australia and didnt really want to get into the election too much (all the back n fourthing gets confusing) but i cant help but keep updated now. I cant beleive how hateful these people are, ic ant beleive the words coming out of their mouths, the prejudice. It's horrible and i wish it'd change. If i were American, i'd vote be voting for Obama.
This sad part is that they can not see beyond color, they are close minded and unfortunately in this world people of that mentality will never change. It's not a matter of if your Christian, muslim, white, black, yellow, blue….In the end it comes down to who will governor over this country in the best of interest for the country and the people. Racial slurs and completely ignorant comments will result in nothing….
THE RNC MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ASAP AND I IMPLORED THE HONEST REPUBLICANS OUT THERE TO CALL THE RNC AND ASK THEM RO REPUDIATE THIS AND REPREMANT THHIS VOTERS MACCAIN NEEDS TO TELL THIS PEOPLE THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND IF THEY THINK THAT WAY THEY SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR HIM. PALIN NEEDS TO GO SHE IS INSITING HATE, SHE NEEDS TO GO AND MACCAIN NEEDS TO BRING HIS MAVERICK BACK, AND RUN A HONEST CAMPAIN OBAMA IS NOT PERFECT BUT THIS IS NOT RIGHT I FEAR FOR OBAMAS GIRLS AND HIS WIFE. THIS PEOPLE ARE CRAZED, WHY INST THE SECRET SERVICE OR FBI DOING SOMETHING????????
These people are so stupid, how can they make those comments, it seems like they have absolutely no way to get informed….and that's why this country can't get ahead because it's peolple like this that go out and vote for someone who is just as stupid as they are…shame on you!!
My grandmother still lives near there… and yes, she is still afraid of black people, and afraid of liberals… but that is ALL she has ever seen or known. Hating these people won't help. Trying our best to educate them (I know it's a daunting task) will help. You can't change everyone's opinion, but you can try. These people aren't just "dumb rednecks," they just don't know any different! It's very sad! And we need to work to change it, not just laugh at it or hate them.
Re: Elle086 – You need to read a little bit more about Obama and his ties and future plans for the White House than what you read on Perez Hilton. The information is out there, but you are not going to hear Katie Couric talking about in on the nightly news. Hearing these people talk reminds me of people talking about McCain and Palin and their shortcomings. The left is just as extreme as these people.
Re: Shastamagic – where are you from sharia law only applies to muslims, so what are you talking about? britain and most of europe accepts some kind of sharia law. the rest of the world seems to try to accept other people. there are racist everywhere but this people sound down right uneducated and that is the problem with the palin crowd the RNC needs to come out and stop this or you will see lynchings if obama wins. This people are crazy and they feel soo much hatred its not funny. Blacks have the right to be pissed off hence segregation only happened 50 years ago meaning those blacks ie reverent wright are still alive and kicking don't you remeber the lynchings and the water cannons etc. What did we the white people ever suffered like that come on man. Some blacks have the right to be angry, being left to rot in the inner cities etc etc. This people are just dumb and uneducated NOT ALL REPUBLICANS ARE LIKE THAT
Re: ljboucher – What is real? Please let me know? I work as a teacher/social worker in a large California town for at risk high school students and I see the abuse of governemnt spending everyday. From the actual school environment to the families that I service. They are all on welfare, disability, social security. They receive food stamps, housing, medical, and a check every month just for not working. If Obama wins, these are the people who are going to have a windfall. I have to fight the mentality of living on welfare is a great way to live, why go to school and get a job. Keep the masses dumb and dependent. When I hear people talking about how bad the right is, I realize that the government's fight to get the people to fall for their propaganda crap is succeeding. I don't want to live in a communist nation! o you? If you do, you must be the 43% of Americans who do not pay income tax. Well, I do pay income tax and I do not want my money going to people who do not work!
I am most definately NOT an Obama supporter, BUT I do not agree with these people at all! Actually, I don't even really consider him black! He was raised white and is very obviously still very white. I've never heard him say or do anything anti-white. They must've gone to the most remote town in Ohio, and picked all these ignorant people to try and imply that McCain supporters all think like this. Well we DON'T!!! I'm a Hispanic woman and race should have nothing to do with the election, so shut up about race already!
Those people dont realize that we have been living under the tyranny of the true terrorist, GW Bush, who administration has raped this country and caused countless deaths for his private war to avenge threats made against his daddy so many years ago by a tyrant who was no danger to any of us in the US as there were no WMDs to ever be found. Its time we had an intelligent, thoughtful, decent person in the White House, regardless of his color, creed, or religious leanings. Perhaps Obama can reach out to the rest of the world and communicate that we arnt all idiots and warmongers here in the US.
Re: illuvperez – If you are from Europe than you country has already been taken over by left wing liberal thought and the muslin faction. We have TV over hear and see what goes on over there. Also, Europeans have NEVER thought highly of Americans, so for you to say that they think lowly of us now means nothing. You didn't fight for your country, I am fighting for mine!
AmishAnne says, "Please give it a rest with the Al-Jazeera…. It's not unAmerican to let people know this kind of intolerance exists, is it?" No, of course not. However, the reason the anti-American bias is relevant is that anyone making a video like this chooses which clips they will play. This video was edited to make everyone quoted seem uneducated, racist, and irrational. However, a number of the points the speakers were making are valid and can be backed up by the facts, and this may have been clear if the interviews were edited differently. For example, the person who said, Obama and his wife; I'm concerned that they could be anti-white" might have followed up with, "I'm concerned about that because for 20 years they attended a church that preached the racist Black Value System instead of a more inclusive philosophy." I'm not saying she said that, but if she had, a network trying to paint an honest picture would have included, whereas Al Jazeera would have edited it out. This video is a good piece of propaganda, it as it evokes the emotions it was aiming to evoke - outrage and shame, which will then hopefully motivate us to vote for Obama to prove we aren't like those horrible people.
True picture of a big chunk of America right there…the ones in power no less. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT THE REST OF YOU!! GET OFF YOUR LAZY FAT ASSES AND GO VOTE THOSE CHRISTIAN WACKJOB CRAZIES OUT OF WASHINGTON!!
i cannot believe that this world is so disgusting and ignorant. i couldnt even watch the whole thing because it's horrible. i dont know how people can say those things without knowing the facts. Obama/Biden 2008!!
This is a really sad - that people are that stupid and racist bigots. I bet they are all a bunch of bible thumping freaks, who right now are also HYPOCRITES!!Talk about uneducated morons. It pretty much tells you that those are the people that the Republican party wants to support them because they are the idiots who will believe anything you tell them. If that is truly what that party stands for then since I was undecided - they have finally helped me decide who I want to vote for and it definitely isn't for a party that stands behind racism in America. This is REALLY SAD!!!
Re: Twoboys2 – I have traveled around the world twice and have lived in Saudi Arabia….and I am still a conservative. I have seen other countries and it made me love America and American values even more.
Re: Songstress – White people have to have the "right" to use the race card? So only people that have been 'surpressed' by white people have the right to bring up race? You are truly, and I mean this with compassion, retarded.
Im sure there were plenty of people from Ohio that had good things to say and the dems running that program made sure to just pick out the trailer park trash…then there were some old timers in there that said hey he is linked to terrorists and its true…then there are old bitties saying negros will take over, sad but also there is a fear of black people who are anti white…obama worshiped in a church for years that preached about hating the white man…cant we all just get along now?!!!!
Re: moonbeams – The reason people over 40 are not voting for Obama is not because they are racist, it is because he is going to tax the &*%$ out of them to give to the large amount of people under the age of 40 who do not work and pay taxes. Not because he is black….but you keep reading your Moveon.com site because they are telling you 100% truths….NOT. They are a left wing site spewing misinformation and communist propaganda. Look who the major funders are of Factcheck and Moveon. They are telling you what they want you to hear.
im from this area and alot of the people here are older. they still have the 1950's mindset that anyone thats not white and christian are wrong. alot of it has to do with what your parents taught you too. if you grow up to think that anyone that looks different than you or is different than you is either a bad person or is wrong.
This makes me sick, I'm in awe of the ignorance and stupidity of these backwards inbred disgusting excuses for human beings. This world would be a better place if those pathetic pieces of shit were eliminated.
ugh since when does Obama think white people are trash?! I think THESE people ARE white trash maybe they don't have a t.v. in their house which is obviously why they would be voting for john mccain or even showing up to a sarah palin rally but they should think about what they're saying to a camera, this is a christian country and Obama's not a christian- yet their at a palin rally, a lady who's daughter is underage and pregnant maybe she should spend less time in the tanning bed or hunting and more time with her other daughters so they dont turn out like bristol
Wow, it is really disturbing that people in this country are so ill informed about Barack Obama. If you support McCain/Palin, that is totally fine but don’t support them out of fear that Barack Obama is a terrorist, black elitist, Muslim (not that it should matter), etc. Barack Obama, was raised by his WHITE mother and grandparents so I have a hard time believing that this man has any ill will towards white people and I definitely don’t think that he looks down on anyone. Also, as far as Obama being a terrorist, the accusations wouldn’t even come up if the man’s middle name wasn’t Hussein. I didn’t know that it was okay to accuse someone’s character based on their name, a name that they didn’t choose for themselves.
These people are incredibly ignorant and do NOT speak for white Americans. I'm ashamed to be in the same species as these people. Ignorance is bliss.
I'm an American living in Europe and because of these kind of people I'm ashamed to tell people im from the US. Everyday people point out how stupid Americans are and our country is nothing but a big mess. But all of them have the same opinion about Obama; He will change the world. If he is elected, Europeans are going to appreciate Americans much more for actually electing a president who REALLY knows whats going on outside of the US and cares. So please, MAKE A CHANGE. Vote OBAMA '08!!
"Palin will bring honesty & integrity to the White House". Harharharhaaaaaaaaaaar. Hope he just has one kid.
Why the would you post anything from AL JAZEERA!!! you have to be out of your mind! posting this from this shows how you have no clue, and to all the people telling these people to shut up, if you don't like what they have to say to bad, move to another country, its their right to free speech, but if anyone says bad about Obama, all you liberals have a cow, but it sure is no problem saying all the nasty things about those on the right! you have such a double standard.
Some people need to be shot
If you are going to speak in public
at least make sure you know what you are talking about
crazy old ladies
It's unfortunate that they feel the need to judge him by his color; however, I feel the same way they do about the terrorist issues and Muslim relations. We ARE a country founded on Christian values. Read Revelations and you will see that we're nearing the end of time. I think that scares people in relation to Obama. I also think that it's people like those in that part of Ohio that make Christians look bad. I love everybody!
OMG….I am ashamed to admit that I am from Ohio. These people are soooo ignorant. I totally agree with Bloom, these people should be educated before speaking in public.
Re: State ziti – Ummm, do these white people speak educated to you? You know, the ones in the video? Just because Obama was raised by whites, doesn't mean he gets his intellect from them. I speak just like him, and I'm 100% black, baby. Don't be ignorant like them.
I wonder if these ignorant redneck realize they were being interviewed by Al Jezeera.. Hilarious!
Bunch of old ass fuckers from East Bumshit talkin out of their asses. I'm ashamed to be a white christian…
Hmmm!! i dont think these people are ignorant really, dont get me wrong i dont agree with them for one second i just think they are ill educated.
its not their fault where they grew up or how they grew really and you think they are extreme go to Iran and you'll see extreme or china and you'll see extreme and for everyone saying lets stop using the race card i agree lets but do you honestly think if obama hadnt of been black he would be standing where he is today?!?! of course he wouldnt.
Re: illuvperez –
If you are being attacked by people in Europe for being American, then stand up for yourself. Do you attack these same people for being where they are from? And you honestly think electing Obama, a man with no foreign relations experience, that is going to apologize for us defending ourselves in a post 911 world is good. Get some pride in your country. You may disagree with Bush, but that doesn't mean you should hang your head in shame or apologize.
This news piece is Obama rhetoric, I've seen clips of Obama supporters saying Palin is a slut and McCain is too old. Is that right either? That is agism and sexism. Racism exists and its horrible, but this report is clearly an effort to pull out the worst of people and portray people from Ohio in an inaccurate way. If this were a balanced report, perhaps they would interview people from Cincinnati and Cleveland. The reporter wanted to paint McCain's campaign and its supporters as racist and all you people bought into it.
god..im so ashamed to be from ohio.
How sad those poor ignorant people, what happened to no child let behind? Seems like they were left in Ohio.
this is why McCain will probably still win.
This was filmed in Ohio, in the North. Can you even imagine what the responses would have been if this had been filmed in any of the Southern "redneck" states?
I'm Canadian, and Ohio is one of the states that is often described as being similar to here, but I think this video highlights the differences in our cultures.
Ignorance is right.
Educate your fellow Americans!
Why don't you be UNbiased for once and post the Obama youtube clips too. There are the same type of people that are out there spouting off for Obama. So sick of your liberal attempt at true news. Stick to gossip Perez, thats what you are best at.
PEREZ: This is extremely irresponsible of you. Why do you keep reporting on these idiots. I AM A SARAH PALIN SUPPORT and I am faaar from racist. Your making it look like everyone who supports her is a redneck, racist asshole. That's simply NOT TRUE.
What do you expect when you never leave your county, don't associate with anyone who isn't in your church and fear anything or anyone that is different than you.
Re: LaBella – Ties with terrorists? Do you realize that Ayers is a Professor - DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR - at the University of Illinois? So should we also condemn his students and their parents for having "ties" with this terrorists? Should we go after the University and insist that they cut their "ties" with this terrorist and fire him?
Like Dr. Phil always says.. if you're going to play the "what if" game, play it to the end.
This kind of shit talk starts violence and wars. Perhaps these folks should do some REAL research on their own and not be brainwashed by Mrs. Palin or her political party. This group of people do sound like a KKK revival! Obama has addressed every single accusation that the repbulicians have dug up. He is not a muslim nor is he a terrorist. Shame on all of those arrogant, uninformed hate mongers. Obama08. Oh, thanks for letting an old lady post here.
Re: dsrtprncss –
I completely agree. Education about your candidate is a MUST.
I'm extremely offended by the racism in some of these quotes. But other quotes are right on target. Obama went to a racist church for 20 years, where his pastor spewed equally offensive anti-American, anti-white sentiment from the pulpit. Voters have reason to be concerned that Obama is comfortable with a spiritual mentor who preaches that kind of hatred. Obama IS a friend of unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers, who bombed the Pentagon and Capitol. They are not casual acquaintances as Obama claims. Ayers hired Obama to chair an organization he co-founded. They had $50 million to spend on education. They used it to propagandize school children. Obama IS a wolf in sheep's clothing in that he is pretending to be a moderate when his life's work, his voting record, and his closest associations show that he is a far-left liberal, with radical and Communist mentors. His tax plan is convoluted to obscure the biggest transfer of wealth and power from the individual to the government. Many Americans are rightly afraid by what this means for our national security and individual liberty. While racism is unacceptable, I'm glad to see some Ohioans are seeing through Obama's rhetoric. It's also worth noting that this video was edited and framed by Al Jazeera, an Arabic network known for its anti-American bias.
the best part, YOU IDIOTS, is that a lot of the lower class people ignorantly voting for obama [yeah, just because they picked your fav doesn't mean they did so intelligently] would talk just as closed-minded about the white people if some obscure newsman shoved a camera in their face.
my goodness, you people don't even realize how dumb you are!!!
keep it up you rednecks. the more you speak, the more people will vote for obama. seriously, you're the best thing that could ever happen the the obama campaign. i'm loving this. these are the people that mccain said he's proud of. the sad thing is that these morons' votes count as much as mine. oh well. it's the american way. you don't have to take an IQ test to register.
I don't think it's frustrating or sad. They have an opinion just like everyone else.
Jesus christ, it is unbelievable how stupid people can be.
STUPID STUPID HILL BILLIES!
TEAM OBAMA!
Very disappointing and disturbing!!!!!!!
Re: thesweetleaf –
really? so… because a marginal fraction of a population has beliefs that don't mesh with yours, you will call an entire area a landfill? where exactly are you from? and no, dear, I'm not talking about the crackhouse where your mom conceived you.
THESE are the exact people who give Americans a bad name. Most of you are cool, but it's shitheads and racist pricks like these that put a damper on the country as a whole. These people are brainwashed!!!
Re: jennaallen – It's not like Perez Made this video!!! OK, I'm sure there were 1-2 normal people at the rally, but from what I saw on that video…. EVERYONE was a nutjob, racist, ignorant asshole. If it's "not true" as you claim, then why are all those people behaving that way? I didn't even know people acted that way in public until I saw this video. You should be ashamed of your fellow Palin supporters, not defending them.
It is amazing in this age, that there are so many racists still in existance. They are making the Republicans look like White Supremists. This benefits NO ONE! They don't even acknowledge at the fact that Barack's mother is a white woman from Kansas.
White supremacy is a racist[1] ideology based on the assertion that white people are superior to other racial groups. The term is sometimes used specifically to describe a political ideology that advocates the social and political dominance of whites.[2]
White supremacy, as with racial supremacism in general, is rooted in ethnocentrism and a desire for hegemony. It is associated with varying degrees of racism as well as a desire for racial separation. White supremacy has often resulted in anti-black racism and antisemitism, although it has also involved prejudice and discrimination against a wide variety of "non-white" groups.
Different forms of white supremacy have different definitions of 'white', and not all white supremacist organizations agree on which group is the greatest enemy.[3] White supremacists frequently consider Jews to be the gravest threat to their cause, because they can assimilate much more easily than other ethnic groups.
The clip looks like it was filmed in Phoenix, Arizona. Wow, there are people like that in other states???? Go figure. It's the year 2008, but the good ol' boy network is still alive. It's really sad..
Sincerely,
Slater Granite
Re: GrandmaS – ma'am, you are an idiot. palin has said ABSOLUTELY NOTHING racist.
On the other hand… Obama walks throuh the ghetto, saying, "These are the people I wanna help." How many white people live in ghettos? And don't give me that, "My cousin/friend/gardener lived/lives in the ghetto," one example of a white person does not prove your point.
TALK ABOUT UNEDUCATION! DO YOU DO ANY THINKING FOR YOURSELF?!
This makes me ashamed to be from Ohio. Thank God we are not all ignorant idiots like these people!
Wow, are we still in Arizona? The year 2008 and the good ol boy network is still alive..How sad……
Sincerely,
Slater Granite
Wow… I can not believe that we live in such a world filled with this kind of hate! These people are out of control and need to be educated!!
Go Go Obama!!
this is badass
well, this is what germans and other europeans think, americans are like! If I meet people in the states that ask if England is anywhere near the british isles, then I don't wonder anymore, how Bush had such a long time as a president…
OMG that was terrible!! Palin is filled with holy spirit? Then my ass is filled with bags of gold!! I really don't care what people want to vote but comments like these make me wonder if these people should be helping to decide the future leader of the Country at all. They should just stay at home and watch Jerry Springer. Very Scary!!!
i am from ohio and i just wanted to say that not all of us are uneducated racist hicks. i am not voting for obama but it has nothing to do with the color of his skin people like the people on the video have no right to vote
“The ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.” John F. Kennedy. People get out to vote!
Seriously, these backwoods hillbillies shouldn't be allowed to vote!
Was Palin hosting a KKK rally? Seems like it!
I am a Canadian and I think our low attendance to the polls was embarrassing, but this is even worse!!!! It's hard to believe that people in north america in the 21st century can still have such narrow minded, uneducated, racist views. It's extremely sad and disappointing to see that in one of the foremost nations of the world some people still hold onto such antiquated ideals. Vote for who you think is right people! Colour of skin or religion is not an issue!
From an outsider looking in (I live in AUS), this video is appalling!! It seems middle America has NO idea what is going on in the world around them. Get yr head out of your butts and open your eyes!!
One more point, I watched a little of the Presidential debate and Healthcare was discussed. The USAs healthcare system is a joke and an embarrassment. I was shocked to hear that the avg healthcare policy is over $5000K per year. I pay a little over $1200K….this is one of the top policies.
Guys, start asking for uniform healthcare…it's a god given right!!!
Re: AMO – AMO AS AN OBAMA SUPPORTER I THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST AT LEAST THERE ARE A FEW SNART REPUBLICANS LEFT HERE IN THE GREAT USA AFTER ALL…. THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SHOULD REPUDIATE THIS PEOPLE AND RUN ON ISSUES INSTEAD OF THIS RACIAL HATRED THE WORD MUSLIM AND TERROST IN THIS RALLIES ARE CODE WORDS FOR THE N WORDS ETC. ITS IS SICK WHAT THIS RALLIES ARE SPEWING AND BTW ALL OBAMA RALLIES ARE POSITIVE AND NONE OF THIS BS HAPPENS THERE ARE COUNTLES VIDS OF MACCAIN PALIN RALLIES IN YOU TUBE THAT ARE JUST DOWN RIGHT SCARY. THE RNC NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS
fucking retarded racist people
they should see the news
"terrorist…" bah stupid woman
Obama ftw! :]
I'm ashamed and embarrassed to be from Ohio. Please know that not all of white Ohioans feel this way. I'm voting for Obama because McCain/Palin are IDIOTS.
Re: vanityeverlastingbonet –
HOOOLLLLLDDD UPPPPP YOU HOPE someone is assassinated? You HOPE a father of two children is killed? Not matter your affiliation or party that is disgusting and morally deplorable!!!! You are calling Obama out for wanting to help Africa and for "connections" with Rev. Wright in and effort to attack Obama's character, however YOU are wishing death on someone and want to watch it "over and over". I think that says something about YOUR character NOT Obama's! You kinda lost your right to judge him for actions when your spewing hate speech and making a joke about his death! AND If you are even that UGLY TRANI in the photo and are actually Black as you claim than what you said about Obama's color is even worse! You do not have to agree with what everyone in your ethnic group does, BUT you are shoving them all into a social context! You hate yourself and your cultural heritage that much?! Again hunny, that doesn't say ANYTHING about you culture or reflects ANY bad light on Blacks, it reflects something sad onto YOU! Get a life and doctor and learn to love yourself so you can stop hating you culture and wishing death on people like a sad hate monger. Oh and if you DO NOT like Perez then DO NOT sign up for his site!
Obama will win and you'll all regret not supporting him in the 1st place because of all he will do to repair and rebuild this country!!! OBAMA '08!!
Re: CaraC – Please give it a rest with the Al-Jazeera. Just go on YouTube and you can find amateur videos like this from many other McPalin rallies. I'm sure there are also a-holes at Obama rallies (although not as many), and if people want to find them and film them they should go ahead. It's not unAmerican to let people know this kind of intolerance exists, is it?
People who are ignorant know only that the smart people are wrong
People who are smart know only that the ignorant people are wrong
And the wheels on the bus go round and round
Re: AustenT – How am I an idoit. Please elaborate!
this makes me so fucking angry how ignorant people are! They honestly believe half of the things they think about obama? he hates white people, black people will take over america? he is a terrorist? GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: hollyholly8 – There were 5000 people at this rally. They showed interviews with 10-15 or so people. How many they really interviewed, we don't know. It's obvious that they edited this video to make the Ohio Valley look like a bunch of racist rednecks. To say there were 1 or 2 "normal" people is a gross understatement. These few do not represent the views of the many.
wow i am not that shocked to see ignorant middle america. i do not think these people speak from any knowledge except they are fearfulof a black man running this country. he is not a terrorist, he is not anti-white, christianity and the holy spirit should not have an effect on how you can successfully run this country. quit living in your hill billy farms and get with real america where this economy crisis is effecting us!!!! when u live on a farm with straw in ur teeth why woul u care about the economy??
Haha I guess I'm a baby killer and a terrorist then according to these people. They should really get some education before speaking. All this is doing is making them look stupid and ignorant.
sadly i'm not shocked people still fell this way they are whats wrong with this country and they need to be proven wrong with there mindless minds vote obama we need him
this is scary and sad at the same time. these people come off as extremely uneducated and scarily ignorant….but i guess they are "if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck…it must be a duck." (isn't that what he said??)
Dear God HELP US!!! Remind me to never visit there! Where was it? Oh yeah, HELL! Yikes! People still use the N word???!!! WHOA!!! BLATANT! DESPICABLE.
Re: CaCaCarKeys – the best thing is fir this vid to go viral just like the palin maccain mob that will TURN OFF THE INFEPENDENTs MACCAIN CANNOT WIL WITH THE BASE AND THIS IS THE BASE OF THE RNC this people that live in fear of MUSLIMS BLACKS AND ANYTHING UNCHIRSTIAN well they have no jobs and their jobs will not be comming back their children are moving away to the cities and maybe they will have a better acceptance for other people. THIS IS AMERICA A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS
wow.. being from Ky moving to IL, I'm so glad I'm not around many of these people anymore. This is ridiculous - wow, good title Perez, Ignorance.
u know what? this election has turned out to be really scary and interesting at the same time. I had to laugh while watching the video, but it isn't funny at all.
Re: JayPea – Palin is a typical AMERICAN family. In case you forgot we are in America. I agree with you on the abuse of power, firing her brother-in-law, but she has more experience to be VICE president then Barak's 43 days of experience to be PRESIDENT. I agree that you should go out and vote, everyone should! But, please inform yourself with every possible news outlet available not just from what you see on other blog posts!
P.S. Spell check in a new and fabulous invention. Perhaps you could use it!
Those people are the reason BUSH got elected…come On USA…do the right thing and vote for OBAMA…….
from a canadian friend….
absolutely ridiculous…the bible belt nation needs to wake up and figure out what is real. Obama is REAL.
OMG! OMG!
This kind of behavior happens all over the world! Its' schoking and scaring!
I'm not american but WE ALL KNOW that this world have "a president" (lider) and he comes always from USA (it's a fact!)…that he might be KILLED! This won't be the first or last time to kill a black lider (remember Mr. King?)!
If he wins, which I hope, the world will be in a constant danger. I mean: people who don't like "black power" willing to kill him and if they do, the other side…people fighting against his death!
I hope our wolrd is prepare to see that skins, sizes and other issues DOESN'T MATTER!
Why don't you put some of the crazy left wing talk! these people are extreme, but they have a good point. Where did you get this interview? Talking about about hate,,,,the left are the most hateful people out there. The people have good points, but your desire to "better" and more "advanced" than the dumb right is keeping you believing the the divisive hate speech of the left. AL Jazeera??????? Of course they want to say that McCain supporters are racist, because no one wants to be called a racist…..so you gotta vote for Obama to show that you are not a racist. Even though the left is the most hateful and non tolerant side of this political debate. You should be arrested for treason for putting this intolerant, divisive, propaganda on your site.
I agree its terrible, but i have heard much worse here said about mccain then that. So obviously these comments ar outrageous but it shows us one must look at themselves and wonder… Are we that outrageous to?
Okay, for starters, I am NOT defending these people. However–this is St. Clairsville, in South-Eastern Ohio, an area made up of a high level of uneducated, lower middle class workers. It's even considered a part of Appalachia. Now, I am NOT saying everyone from that region is stupid or racist–my own family comes from very close by! But they have been raised to have one, very sheltered point of view. They need to be educated, but they're scared of change. Just realize that this is not representative of all of Ohio. And pity them, don't hate them.
Wait until one day Sharia law will be mandated in our country in the name of tolerance….And if you are against in, you too will be branded ignorant and a racist. People, please start thinking for yourself and not letting politicians, celebrities, and dictators form communist countries tell you what you should think. We care too much about what people think about us in this society and our government knows that and is using that to gain control of the masses. Remember, that it is easier to control the masses if they are ignorant and reliant upon the governemnt. Educated yourself!
omg!!!! SOMEBODY NEEDS SOME EDUCATION:S
When i went to comment this thread, the number of comments was 666… creepy.
Anyways i'm from Australia and didnt really want to get into the election too much (all the back n fourthing gets confusing) but i cant help but keep updated now. I cant beleive how hateful these people are, ic ant beleive the words coming out of their mouths, the prejudice. It's horrible and i wish it'd change. If i were American, i'd vote be voting for Obama.
This sad part is that they can not see beyond color, they are close minded and unfortunately in this world people of that mentality will never change. It's not a matter of if your Christian, muslim, white, black, yellow, blue….In the end it comes down to who will governor over this country in the best of interest for the country and the people. Racial slurs and completely ignorant comments will result in nothing….
THE RNC MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ASAP AND I IMPLORED THE HONEST REPUBLICANS OUT THERE TO CALL THE RNC AND ASK THEM RO REPUDIATE THIS AND REPREMANT THHIS VOTERS MACCAIN NEEDS TO TELL THIS PEOPLE THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND IF THEY THINK THAT WAY THEY SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR HIM. PALIN NEEDS TO GO SHE IS INSITING HATE, SHE NEEDS TO GO AND MACCAIN NEEDS TO BRING HIS MAVERICK BACK, AND RUN A HONEST CAMPAIN OBAMA IS NOT PERFECT BUT THIS IS NOT RIGHT I FEAR FOR OBAMAS GIRLS AND HIS WIFE. THIS PEOPLE ARE CRAZED, WHY INST THE SECRET SERVICE OR FBI DOING SOMETHING????????
how can u be proud of this people? the "biggest" country has the biggest stupid people!!
These people are so stupid, how can they make those comments, it seems like they have absolutely no way to get informed….and that's why this country can't get ahead because it's peolple like this that go out and vote for someone who is just as stupid as they are…shame on you!!
My grandmother still lives near there… and yes, she is still afraid of black people, and afraid of liberals… but that is ALL she has ever seen or known. Hating these people won't help. Trying our best to educate them (I know it's a daunting task) will help. You can't change everyone's opinion, but you can try. These people aren't just "dumb rednecks," they just don't know any different! It's very sad! And we need to work to change it, not just laugh at it or hate them.
Re: Elle086 – You need to read a little bit more about Obama and his ties and future plans for the White House than what you read on Perez Hilton. The information is out there, but you are not going to hear Katie Couric talking about in on the nightly news. Hearing these people talk reminds me of people talking about McCain and Palin and their shortcomings. The left is just as extreme as these people.
Re: Shastamagic – where are you from sharia law only applies to muslims, so what are you talking about? britain and most of europe accepts some kind of sharia law. the rest of the world seems to try to accept other people. there are racist everywhere but this people sound down right uneducated and that is the problem with the palin crowd the RNC needs to come out and stop this or you will see lynchings if obama wins. This people are crazy and they feel soo much hatred its not funny. Blacks have the right to be pissed off hence segregation only happened 50 years ago meaning those blacks ie reverent wright are still alive and kicking don't you remeber the lynchings and the water cannons etc. What did we the white people ever suffered like that come on man. Some blacks have the right to be angry, being left to rot in the inner cities etc etc. This people are just dumb and uneducated NOT ALL REPUBLICANS ARE LIKE THAT
Re: ljboucher – What is real? Please let me know? I work as a teacher/social worker in a large California town for at risk high school students and I see the abuse of governemnt spending everyday. From the actual school environment to the families that I service. They are all on welfare, disability, social security. They receive food stamps, housing, medical, and a check every month just for not working. If Obama wins, these are the people who are going to have a windfall. I have to fight the mentality of living on welfare is a great way to live, why go to school and get a job. Keep the masses dumb and dependent. When I hear people talking about how bad the right is, I realize that the government's fight to get the people to fall for their propaganda crap is succeeding. I don't want to live in a communist nation! o you? If you do, you must be the 43% of Americans who do not pay income tax. Well, I do pay income tax and I do not want my money going to people who do not work!
I'm so embarrassed to be white right now.
I am most definately NOT an Obama supporter, BUT I do not agree with these people at all! Actually, I don't even really consider him black! He was raised white and is very obviously still very white. I've never heard him say or do anything anti-white. They must've gone to the most remote town in Ohio, and picked all these ignorant people to try and imply that McCain supporters all think like this. Well we DON'T!!! I'm a Hispanic woman and race should have nothing to do with the election, so shut up about race already!
Re: Shalom – I AM HERE BECAUSE I CAN BE….ALSO I AM HERE TO EXPLAIN MARIO'S BIAS
Re: CaraC – Thank you for your words. It does worry me that this report was done by Al Jazeera and that no one on this site seems to care.
Those people dont realize that we have been living under the tyranny of the true terrorist, GW Bush, who administration has raped this country and caused countless deaths for his private war to avenge threats made against his daddy so many years ago by a tyrant who was no danger to any of us in the US as there were no WMDs to ever be found. Its time we had an intelligent, thoughtful, decent person in the White House, regardless of his color, creed, or religious leanings. Perhaps Obama can reach out to the rest of the world and communicate that we arnt all idiots and warmongers here in the US.
Re: illuvperez – If you are from Europe than you country has already been taken over by left wing liberal thought and the muslin faction. We have TV over hear and see what goes on over there. Also, Europeans have NEVER thought highly of Americans, so for you to say that they think lowly of us now means nothing. You didn't fight for your country, I am fighting for mine!
AmishAnne says, "Please give it a rest with the Al-Jazeera…. It's not unAmerican to let people know this kind of intolerance exists, is it?" No, of course not. However, the reason the anti-American bias is relevant is that anyone making a video like this chooses which clips they will play. This video was edited to make everyone quoted seem uneducated, racist, and irrational. However, a number of the points the speakers were making are valid and can be backed up by the facts, and this may have been clear if the interviews were edited differently. For example, the person who said, Obama and his wife; I'm concerned that they could be anti-white" might have followed up with, "I'm concerned about that because for 20 years they attended a church that preached the racist Black Value System instead of a more inclusive philosophy." I'm not saying she said that, but if she had, a network trying to paint an honest picture would have included, whereas Al Jazeera would have edited it out. This video is a good piece of propaganda, it as it evokes the emotions it was aiming to evoke - outrage and shame, which will then hopefully motivate us to vote for Obama to prove we aren't like those horrible people.
True picture of a big chunk of America right there…the ones in power no less. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT THE REST OF YOU!! GET OFF YOUR LAZY FAT ASSES AND GO VOTE THOSE CHRISTIAN WACKJOB CRAZIES OUT OF WASHINGTON!!
i cannot believe that this world is so disgusting and ignorant. i couldnt even watch the whole thing because it's horrible. i dont know how people can say those things without knowing the facts. Obama/Biden 2008!!
This is a really sad - that people are that stupid and racist bigots. I bet they are all a bunch of bible thumping freaks, who right now are also HYPOCRITES!!Talk about uneducated morons. It pretty much tells you that those are the people that the Republican party wants to support them because they are the idiots who will believe anything you tell them. If that is truly what that party stands for then since I was undecided - they have finally helped me decide who I want to vote for and it definitely isn't for a party that stands behind racism in America. This is REALLY SAD!!!
Re: Twoboys2 – I have traveled around the world twice and have lived in Saudi Arabia….and I am still a conservative. I have seen other countries and it made me love America and American values even more.
Re: Songstress – White people have to have the "right" to use the race card? So only people that have been 'surpressed' by white people have the right to bring up race? You are truly, and I mean this with compassion, retarded.
Im sure there were plenty of people from Ohio that had good things to say and the dems running that program made sure to just pick out the trailer park trash…then there were some old timers in there that said hey he is linked to terrorists and its true…then there are old bitties saying negros will take over, sad but also there is a fear of black people who are anti white…obama worshiped in a church for years that preached about hating the white man…cant we all just get along now?!!!!
Coach K is right — how embarrassing.
Pinche Rednecks. This is what we get from inbreeding!
Re: moonbeams – The reason people over 40 are not voting for Obama is not because they are racist, it is because he is going to tax the &*%$ out of them to give to the large amount of people under the age of 40 who do not work and pay taxes. Not because he is black….but you keep reading your Moveon.com site because they are telling you 100% truths….NOT. They are a left wing site spewing misinformation and communist propaganda. Look who the major funders are of Factcheck and Moveon. They are telling you what they want you to hear.
