According to The Times Leader, the Secret Service could not corroborate a reporter’s claims that someone yelled “kill Him” after a McCain campaign staffer referred to Sen. Barack Obama during a McCain rally. Obama mentioned the story during the debate last night.
Despite there being no evidence to back up this one reporter’s claims (no video, no audio, no nothing), the liberal media picked up the reporter’s story anyway and it spread like wildfire across the Internet. It’s interesting to note that members of the national media who were in attendance at the rally didn’t hear the man yell “kill him” either.
The agent in charge of the Secret Service field office in Scranton said allegations that someone yelled “kill him” when presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s name was mentioned during Tuesday’s Sarah Palin rally are unfounded.
The Scranton Times-Tribune first reported the alleged incident on its Web site Tuesday and then again in its print edition Wednesday. The first story, written by reporter David Singleton, appeared with allegations that while congressional candidate Chris Hackett was addressing the crowd and mentioned Obama’s name a man in the audience shouted “kill him.”
Agent Bill Slavoski said he was in the audience, along with an undisclosed number of additional secret service agents and other law enforcement officers and not one heard the comment.
“I was baffled,” he said after reading the report in Wednesday’s Times-Tribune.
He said the agency conducted an investigation Wednesday, after seeing the story, and could not find one person to corroborate the allegation other than Singleton.
“We have yet to find someone to back up the story,” Slavoski said. “We had people all over and we have yet to find anyone who said they heard it.” (Source)
That picture is too funny!!
Wooww!!
i hope this isn’t true. if so then it’s official we are all going to hell. i am not a ultra religious person, but i believe in a higher being and i know heor she is not very pleased with US. there’s no reason to be so hateful. none at all.
AND JFK was killed by a Lone Gunman from a window of a building… Riiiiggghhhtttt
Who cares? Barack is going to be the next president of the United States and that’s that.
And if they do succeed…its going to be a wrap! This ain Sean Bell we talking about here W***E PEOPLE…don’t get fukked up.
there is no friendly way to put it.
JUST CAUSE HE DIDNT HEAR IT DOES NOT MEAN IT WAS NOT SAID
How about Sarah Palin dissing her own supporters who were in the crowd screaming louder! louder! because they couldn’t hear in the back and she thought they were protesters and made some smart ass stupid remark and looked like a total dummy at her own rally..In an attempt to prevent her from making a further ass out of herself, her husband whispered in her ear and informed her that the people shouting were her own supporters.
Can we get a post on that?
Sorry I missed the Pooch Hall discussion yesterday. I just noticed it. I was actually off taking care of The Game business and Sandra couldn’t have posted those Pooch blogs at a better time. Lets keep our fingers crossed Miss Sandra.

It wasn’t at the McCain rally, but at the Palin rally. The crowd yelled, “terrorist” “kill him”.
Well what about that old lady at one of their rallies that told McCain that Obama was Iraqi or some sh** , eluding to he was a terrorist…… SMH !!!!!!
Hi ELove and rest of the Fam……
OBAMA 08
I stand corrected. It was also at a McCain rally. Right after he asked, “who is the real Barack Obama.” The guy yells “terrorist” Here is the link.

Sandra was that you with the glasses and frizz roller set?
What is so amazing is that we can expect the Secret Service to be objective, when they are under investigation for fostering a climate that is hostile to people of color. Go figure.
Why isn’t this stuff researched prior to being irresponsibly posted? It was not a McCain rally, it was a rally for Moose burger eating Sarah Palin. And if it was 1 person or 1 million people that heard “kill him”, it was one too many and it should not have been said from the door. Furthermore, if a support of Obama/Biden said “kill him” in regards to McLame, the shyt would hit the fan. It’s funny that the folks who CAN’T vote sure got alot to say, and quick to print nonsence.
It was a Palin rally. The secret service is trying to confuse people. At the Palin Rally there was a bunch of KKK people there that yelled “Kill Him” and she did nothing but encourage it. How can anyone support a politician that allows something like that to happen at their rallies.
Sandra you should really do your homework before posting this stuff. You know your readers are smart enough to do their own research!
@Shay-from-the-A… Right BACK at cha Baby!!!
No lie… The KKK is supposed to march in my hometown in Mississippi this weekend in protest of the election.
That McCain staffer was “Palin”.
LOL is that picture real? If so I missed that part last night.

For real? Does Al Sharpton know about this?? Lawd its time to go on ebay and find a retro fist t-shirt…or something with a black panther on it at least, I’ll get the riffle from Grandma’s house. Its time for me and some friends to walk through the w***e suburbia neighborhoods with black leather jackets and combat boots on……….! I WISH DEM MF WOOOOOOOOOuLD protest in mY CitY!!!
I can’t stand McCain’s stiff neck azz!
The police are advising people to just ignore it and they’ll go away. They don’t expect there to be a large number of them… just a few people trying to make a point.
maybe they should ask the reporter that was there in florida that wrote the story in the first place. or maybe they should ask mccain because if it wasnt true i am sure he would have said that last night bec he is saying anything to win at this point. they are yelling terrorist. one man said he is doing disservice to his unborn child, one lady said he is arabic( and then i ask what is wrong with being arabic) the list goes on.
so mccain and pack it up and not give him a hard time in the senate. remember he said he is known for reaching across to work with the dems
Doesn’t this picture of McCain kinda remind you of Montgomery Burns from the Simpson’s?
Remember the episode when Smither’s caught him naked. LMAO!
As a black women living in a white country community, there have been worse things said at these rallies. “Kill Him” is the unbelieveable least of it.
LOL at jamil2008…you are so right!
I was’nt even there but I know racist, hatred comments were made because many white are not going to vote for a black man for president. But what hurts the most is when blacks get on the same band wagon with racists. Blacks that supports people that would not never never want to see their black children in the whitehouse just because of the blackness of their skin. Let’s celebrate Obama, the most intelligent and definitely the most COURAGEOUS candidate. I never have felt more proud! If you believe there were NO racist comments made at these rallies you also are dumb enough to believe that there were never no lynching of blacks, never no slavery, never no jim crow laws. DON’T BE BRAINWASHED SANDRA, LOVE YOURSELF, LOVE WHO YOUR REALLY ARE!
