This lovely, yet typical, email was received by and posted on over on PUMA Pac. Hardly persuasive, one can only hope that these sorts of communications are somebody’s idea of a joke. However, given the kinds of emails, photos and comments often illustrated on other PUMA friendly sites, like HillBuzz and Cannonfire, it’s far more likely that whoever composed and distributed this, with the subject line, “You need some penis,” was dead serious:
Why don't you bitter lonely chicks give this crap up? Obama will be your President so bend over and enjoy it If Obama was a socialist/terrorist why do so many Americans support him Bill and Hill Al gore Colin Powell Dick Lugar Scott McCllelan sic Chris Buckley Etc. Are all these people stupid? Face it, you are a bitter broad who is upset your candidate lost and now support Palin who goes against all of Hillarys views. She does have a pussy though. So I guess she qualified What a bunch of stupid irrational BITCHES you are And you should be ashamed the way you con these maladjusted chicks. out of their money. I bet you have made a nice comeup huh? Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
And now, a couple of examples cited on Cannonfire, in a post entitled “Let’s Look At The History,” this one sent to radio talk show host, Steve Corbett:
In the thousands of emails I’ve received in the year that “Corbett” has been on the air, I have not received a single death threat – until yesterday.
“We will kill you when Obama become PRESIDENT OF USA.,” the email reads. “You would see!!!”
Most death threats do not result in death.
But some do.
What makes this threat to kill me all the more mysterious is that it appears to have been sent through Barack Obama’s official campaign website – barackobama.com – the website that sends me official announcements of Obama’s campaign comings and goings.
Another one, supposedly also sent from Obama’s official website, re: Hillary Clinton:
“Just slit her throat, lock her in a car boot, and drive the car into river in West Virginia. Ain’t gonna let no whore screw with the man”
And people wonder why we found Ashley Todd believable. I don’t support McCain/Palin, but behavior like this should not be rewarded. For people like me, who are uncomfortable voting for McCain, but can’t see themselves voting for Obama under any circumstances, this stuff turns a third party vote into a “screw you back” vote. Too many of those and polls become meaningless.
