"Decent family man" is to "Arab" as "Barack Obama" is to ________

A supporter says to John McCain at a rally that Barack Obama is an "Arab" and he replies "No, ma'am, he's a decent family man." (This happens in Minnesota, of course - aren't we proud.)

Hello? How is "decent" the opposite of "Arab"?!!?!?!

And then McCain's close advisor, Mark Salter, says that the campaign is not responsible for "the occasional nut who shows up and yells something about Barack Obama" - as if the climate of racial hate that those folks are acting from was NOT created by contemporary Republicans? Really?!

I have HAD IT with McCain. One word: PATHETIC.
