2008: Another McCain-Palin supporter yells ‘kill him!’ about Obama.
Another McCain-Palin supporter yells ‘kill him!’ about Obama.

The Scranton Times-Tribune notes that yet another McCain supporter at a rally today with Gov. Sarah Palin yelled “kill him!” in reference to Sen. Barack Obama:

Chris Hackett addressed the increasingly feisty crowd as they await the arrival of Gov. Palin. Each time the Republican candidate for the seat in the 10th Congressional District mentioned Barack Obama the crowd booed loudly. One man screamed “kill him!”

Last Monday, a supporter also yelled “kill him” at a rally. In the past weeks, McCain supporters have called Obama “an Arab,” “Little Hussein,” and a “terrorist.” (HT: TPM)

UPDATE: At a rally in Virginia Beach, a supporter yelled “Obama bin Laden!“:

"No one could have ever imagined" that Palin's rhetoric could lead to violence.

3. "No one could have ever imagined" that people would fly planes into buildings either
Except all of those who tried to warn the RW corporatists who allowed that to happen too!
