WHY WE SHOULD WORRY!

A COUPLE OF EXAMPLES OF “REASONING” BY SOME AMERICANS AS THEY TRY TO DECIDE HOW TO VOTE IN NOVEMBER...
These two quotes are from an article by David D. Kirkpatrick published on September 16, New York Times.

The choice of Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska as Mr. McCain’s running mate had clinched it for him, Mr. MacDonald said. “She is anti-abortion, anti-gay-marriage, anti-Big Oil, a lifetime member of the N.R.A., she hunts, she fishes — she is the perfect woman!”

One parishioner ruled out voting for Mr. Obama explicitly because he is black. “Are they going to make it the Black House?” Ray McCormick asked, to embarrassed hushing from a half dozen others gathered around the rectory kitchen. (Five of the six, all lifelong Democrats who supported Mrs. Clinton in the primary, said they now lean toward Mr. McCain.)
