Yesterday, we assumed someone yelled “kill him,” regarding Senator Obama, at a McCain rally in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Now, we should question the claim. John McCormack of The Weekly Standard writes: “This afternoon, I talked to David Singleton [the reporter who made this claim] on the phone. He told me that someone shouted ‘kill him’ ‘during the discussion by Chris Hackett of Senator Obama’s remarks about guns and religion, and how he needs to be educated about Pennsylvania.’ The shouter was ‘off to my right near the back of the crowd,’ Singleton said, but he ‘couldn’t identify who it was.'”

Apparently, no one else could verify the shout either. None of the Secret Service who were present. None of the over twenty diverse people asked about it. Makes you wonder if the reporter is being straight-forward, if he isn’t simply mistaken.
