Interesting video from The Young Turks, a YouTube news media group. In this installment they took footage from Al-Jazeera news media to show some of the comments being made by McCain-Palin supporters at a rally.

You know for months, I heard that the media was being unfair in their treatment of the election campaign, yet footage like this was hardly released. What's even more troubling was that the majority of these supporters come from the Bible Belt of America. I guess it no longer puzzles me why we have the international reputation that we do...

One of the things that have caused my support for Barack Obama is his thoughtfulness. His candidacy represents a marked departure from "Bush-like" political action mired in stubbornness and an inability to admit failed policy. With this supporting cast and Obama's ability to process and think through decisions, I find comfort. =)
