October 10, 2008...”I have to tell you. Sen. Obama is a decent person and a person you dont have to be scared of as president of the United States,” McCain told a supporter at a town hall meeting in Minnesota who said he was scared of the prospect of an Obama presidency and of who the Democrat would appoint to the Supreme Court.
McCain passed his wireless microphone to one woman who said, “I can’t trust Obama. I have read about him and he’s not, he’s not uh he’s an Arab. He’s not “ before McCain retook the microphone and replied:
“No, ma’am. He’s a decent family man [and] citizen that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues and that’s what this campaign’s all about. He’s not [an Arab].”
A few months after the 2008 election, he was at a Republican Women’s luncheon in Tucson where he said that he was never so afraid for his country. I wanted to wring his neck!!
