Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
pitbull bitch has endlessly promoted herself (her only skill), and has been promoted by the tea baggers, as a lover and promoter of guns, gun violence, targeting/scoping political opponents, and murdering animals for fun, a trailer-park trash version of Michael Vick.
She part of the America that adores guns and gun violence, guns and (political) murder as The Final Solution to whatever you hate.

Yeah, it couldn't possibly be this fucking whack job that is responsible for this.

Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
Three truths about this situation:
1. The guy who shot all those people is nutso; his violence and his choice of targets is not necessarily a direct response to the 'rhetorical violence' of the current political pundits in either party.
2. The rhetorical reliance on war imagery in current political debate cannot be helpful in any situation.
3. There are many victims from the Arizona tragedy. Sarah Palin is not one of them.Are you able to read the part that says "his violence and his choice of targets is not necessarily a direct resoponse to the 'rhetorical violence' of the current political pundits..."?

Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
I am surprised at the rush to politicize what happaned in Arizona. It seemed to start as soon as the news broke Saturday.
I am a "lefty",and I am shocked at how fast pundits (on both sides) went right to who to blame. How does that help the situation? they got the guy who pulled the trigger. there is no evidance...NONE, that he was influeinced by Sara Palin (or anyone else in the media).
He is a nut job. His ramblings on you tube and things he said to his friends prove at least that much. People made up fake facebook pages to try to link him to Obama, the right wing pundits went into damage control mode, Sara Palins people took down the map with the crosshairs. Why? You did nothing wrong by voicing your opinions, and expressing your views. Stand by your message. Freedom of speech means just that, freedom of speech...I don't have to like it or agree with it, but it is your right to say it. I heard no one said "Hey Jared, go shoot the congressman" Even so, most adults can think for themselves. Dont blame a single lunatics actions on a party, group or polotician. It just makes you look foolish.
If there is a silver lining in this it is that both may sides may look for better ways to express their views. Tone down the rhetoric, so people don't take it so personally, and civil political discusions can begin once again.
But that doesn't mean that Sara Palin, or the "right" is to blame for this, hard for me to say, since I hate Sara Palin!! However, what has been done to her here has been unfair.

To blame her for a political assasination attempt, because she uses sometimes irresponsible words is unfair to her.

That was my point in my earlier post. Sarah Palin is in no way a victim here, but Glenn Beck et.al. try to deflect the conversation away from their own rhetoric to claim that one of theirs is being 'victimized' by those who say that there is a correlation between violent rhetoric and what happened in Ariz.
-
Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
Sarah Palin has played the victim card more frequently than most politicians not named Jesse Jackson.
And now she's getting Beck to do her whining for her.

Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
Yes the language from the right is inflamitory, beck and palin are guilty of that surely, but they did not put the gun in this kids hands, they did not send him to Rep Giffords event. I am sure Palin, Bck, Hannity, and Rush will play the victim card. They are on the defensive, the media is pointing a finger right at them, how would you react?

Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
wow, picka lane, ok...
No proof she did anything wrong. respect her right to free speech, even if you don't like it.
If the evidance shows that he had her books, had an obsession with her, followed her on twitter and made statements mirroring Palins...I will probably merge into the other lane, where you are blaming her.
For now, bitch, I cannot place blame on her because I don't like what she says.

Fortunately for you, Sarah Palin has convienently placed surveying symbols on a map so that you know exactly where that person is. If you need additional latitude and longitude, I'm sure she can accomodate.
-
Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
Good thing those cross hairs were placed on Gifford's location. Even though Loughner met Gifford in 2007--before all of this Sarah Palin nonsense even began--and held a grudge against her since, Jared waited until 2010 so he can see cross hairs pointing to Arizona.
That definitely helped him find Gifford.

You can bet one thing, for sure. Every time Obama uses a martial term; "bringing a gun to a knife fight," "enemy," "hit back twice as hard," (after which SEIU goons almost beat Ken Gladney to death); or, the next time Rahm Emmanuel repeated jabs a steak knife into a table screaming opponents' names followed by "Dead!, Dead!, Dead!" or send paper-wrapped fished to people who have irked him, there will be a conservative right-wing blogger recording it and biding the time for when it is need to counter this silliness.

Yea, shellacking in 2012...because empty promises of fiscal responsbility in 2010 expanded conservative capital so much, right? Americans aren't seeing through anything, not because they are dumb, but because they are too apathetic to look into the cesspool of government and political rhetortic. It's a mess and this country is low on heroes.

Re: how can they blame the az shooting on palin
I think Sarah Palin is as dumb as the next guy and I don't like her, but this has gone completely over the edge. That campaign map "targeting districts" has been ALL OVER CNN and MSNBC lately.
I mean really? That's supposed to be some kind of proof of anything? Watching the talking heads on MSNBC the last few days has been surreal.

Sarah Palin is just really stupid. She is dangerous because she is stupid and powerful (popular amongst the ever growing throng of mental handicapped Americans).
Do you realize how stupid and afraid and paranoid you sound? "They're gon' take my guns! My freedom! Make me abort ma babies! Make me worship Allah!" Do ever wonder why people think you are all a bunch of nuts?

I there is a misunderstanding in context. I haven't seen anyone directly blame Palin for the shooting and I wouldn't condone that. She should be held accountable for putting forth an irresponsible campaign though.

When you, as a speaker, are looking out onto a throng of rabid, hateful people holding signs depicting our president with a target on his head or a Hitler mustache scrawled on his upper lip with misspelled accusations of conflicting political ideologies on homemade signs . . . it might not be responsible to tell these people that the "other guy" wants to take away their guns and then draw them a map with target points on it.
Is that clear enough?
