At a rally in Minnesota on Friday, a woman told McCain: "I don't trust Obama. I have read about him and he's an Arab."

McCain shook his head and said, "No ma'am, no ma'am. He's a decent family man...[a] citizen that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues. That's what this campaign is all about."


Wow, racist much. I can't even begin to process this shit.

Interesting how McCain didn't refute the first racist statement by saying anything like, "You're mistaken, he's not even Arab" but by saying, "Oh, no, he's a decent family man". Uh, and Arabs can't be because ...?

Thank you. I was trying to address that aspect of it and was failing.
