this is more propaganda from the government to start civil unrest

do not believe it

Well....

I'll withhold my gut reaction to this until more details emerge.

My first thought though was, "how convenient".

If it's true it's despicable and they should be punished to the extent of the law..this is not what this country needs...period. It is strange for this to come out after what many may see as a damaging sound byte.

I blame the media trying to crown Obama and making it sem like a slamdunk. They will try to kill him to make sure he doesn't win instead of waiting and giving the process a chance.
They know he will be harder to get close to if he is president.

Wow, the ATF really is our friend. Thank you so much ATF!!!

This made up for that whole Waco misunderstanding.

Peace

The only way he could be touched is if the secret service stand down, like in other ones. But i doubt they will.

This is just a story to divide you people even more.

MSNBC is running with it and promising updates as they come in

saw this first on cnbc and they said a plot to kill 102 people "INCLUDING" barack obama

"October surprises"!! I expect several more before Nov. 4. Let's see how this plays out. This could end up like the famous 2004 Osama bin Laden tape that everyone alleges saved the election for GW.

I'm posting these links as they pop up...

My guess would be that this was something cooked up by the Obama campaign to take people's mind off of the "redistribution of wealth" comment and give them another target for their anger, the racist pricks. On the other hand, you can bet your bottom dollar there are a lot of idiots that would like nothing more than to make such a thing reality.
That goes without saying for nearly all political leaders, I would imagine.

It may also be a message to Obama that he needs to "play ball" as it were. Because this sort of thing at least gets that message out there. This is the second such threat in recent weeks. At this point, if something awfull WERE to happen, people would say, "well, I saw it coming."

Like someone above said, divide and conquer.

Skinheads? There's still skinheads?
I swear I haven't heard that term since the mid-90's, are we sure they still call themselves skinheads?
Smells like pro"poo"ganda, and a little like teen spirit.

I am not sure if it will have that same effect, but it will increase people's awareness that racism still exists in this country. Whether or not it has an effect on the election is dependent on how the candidates and talking heads respond to it.

I'm sure there are skinheads out there...just like kkk members and the like. This almost ensures that if Obama loses...there will be riots of some kind. What is ridiculous to me is that when the riots occur...people who actually voted for Obama will see their property damaged and stolen. Our country is going to complete hell right now.
