And yes, the 'C' word is crossed out in the photo. However, it wasnt at an Obama rally, but a Palin one. I'm still a little confused what it was exactly. It was either a side protest at a Palin rally at a Park Hyett hotel in Philly or an actual Palin rally itself, not sure. Anyway, since these boards have been overly one-sided about how evil and racist McCain supporters been at his rally's, I wanted to show we are not just biased and REALIZE this happens on both sides, although I would still say someone shouting to KILL someone ranks up there as #1 extremist crazy tool . Anyway, this is PURELY disgusting of course and it shows a lack of class and none of it pushes the conversation forward, only hinders it. Oh yeah, I like how its on a Hillary board....these people are under the impression she's still in the race lol.

Originally Posted By Mort2 Well, it just seems like it could have been taken anywhere. No evidence that it is at a Palin ralley. I have no doubt something like this occurs on both sides. The fringe left and right are filled with nut cases. But this specific photo, on its own, just doesn't seem legit.

Yep, it might be out of context, or even a fake, although my own gut says it isn't. ANY photo could be a fake. Pretty sad, though. Actually, it's pretty sad regardless of whose name is on the shirts.

Originally Posted By Mr X No no, DVC. The extreme right has a monopoly on malicious and unethical attacks. There's a difference. The Liberals are famous for being tasteless. Just look at Barbara Streisand!
Originally Posted By DVC_dad Oh no you did NOT go there! Barbara is very mild. I do NOT think that Bernhard is representative of typical liberal voters, at least I hope not, but her comments were even more offensive than these shirts, and not by just a little bit. I think Palin has suffered far more insult and personal attack than either POTUS candidate. I'm still trying to figure out what Bernhard meant by "turn coat".

Originally Posted By chickendumpling Now, to be fair, ya can't talk about Palin and t-shirts without remembering that picture of her in college wearing that "I may be broke, but I ain't flat busted" shirt. LOL! That was pretty "klassy" too. But at least that was funny! Then again maybe the C word is supposed to be funny too and I'm just not hip enough to see that anymore. (Is the part where I get to shake my head and sigh and say, "Kids today." ;-)
