Yep! We were that close.
No, we never heard anyone make a threat towards Obama.
Isn't it interesting that "The Media" quickly caught on to one reporter in PA who said he heard one man yell "kill him" regarding Obama? Soon after, there were stories all over the radio and television saying how "divisive" and "angry" McCain/Palin rallies were becoming.
Yet those of us who have attended such events (we saw her speak in Carson, CA) never heard anything close to what these reporters were saying. We did chant "USA, USA, USA!". Is that divisive? We did chant "Drill Baby Drill". Is that angry? (The reality is that the Obama supporters who were protesting those of us waiting to get into the event were very rude, crude, angry, and embarassing.)
So, I felt a bit vindicated today when the Secret Service released their findings about this "threatening" rally. After interviewing over 20 people who were there, they found no one heard anyone yell "kill him". Upon asking the reporter what the man looked like who said this threat, he replied that he didn't see him, he only heard him. Isn't that special? You can read the article here.
I wonder if the media will report this reality as much as they did the false story from last week? Thank God we still have the freedom to report/blog truth.
