The supposed incident during a McCain/Palin rally last week where someone yelled “kill him” about Barack Obama — it never happened.

Unlike the perceived hate on the right, the hate on the left has been well documented over the last eight years. The viciousness of some Obama supporters is unrivaled in American political history.

The latest incident of hate took place on Sunday. Shots were fired at the McCain/Palin bus (The Straight Talk Express) shattering a window. The shooting occurred in southern New Mexico and the weapon used was identified as a .22 caliber rifle. Thankfully, neither candidate was on board at the time.

Can you f*cking imagine if someone shot at Obama’s bus? It would be wall to wall coverage right up to election day. The NY Times would decry McCain’s ‘hateful’ campaign, etc.

Since it was McCain’s bus that was shot at, you hear absolutely nothing.

The silence is deafening.
