I have to think that Palin is appalled as the rest of us at what happened yesterday. I'm sure that she never intended for anyone to actually shoot Democratic office holders. There is also no indication that she had anything to do with case. This guy is clearly nuts and he was nuts before anyone outside of Alaska ever heard of Sarah Palin.

That said, I think Palin (and everyone else) should think twice before using any kind of violent imagery in future politcal adverstising, it certainly can't hurt.

Alas, my bluff was called. I will be a man of my word and leave forever although I do leave with this question for conservatives as it pertains to Bush? Why wait to protest until 2008? I guess the stimulus YOU received was good enough to keep quiet. Enjoyed these last few years my friends but for once, and I guess for all, I will keep my word. Peace and always, GO CATAMOUNTS!!! Thanks guys.

Iraq and runaway spending were the reasons for Bush's low approval rating when he left office. I think it was down around 30% wasn't it?

Certainly this country is not 70% liberal.

Typical liberal trying to revise history. Disapproval of GWB was the most bipartisan thing about his last year in office.

At the very least Palin should be questioned and investigated. I doubt there will be anything there to arrest her; too bad. To not investigate her and some of her contacts would only add fuel to the argument that there are two sets of laws in this country, one for celebs and the other for us mere mortals.

The gunman is too blame, that's clear. But it is a very unfortunate coincidence for the tea party types that Gifford was targeted by them.

Jared Loughner, Alleged Shooter in Gabrielle Giffords Attack, Described by Classmate as "Left-Wing Pothead"
A classmate of the man accused of shooting Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords this morning describes him as "left wing" and a "pot head" in a series of posts on Twitter this afternoon.

Parker "tweets" that she and Loughner were in the band together and were friends until 2007 when he became "reclusive" after getting alcohol poisoning and dropping out of college.

She describes him as "quite liberal" and as a "political radical."

It's unbelievable how some of you otherwise fairly solid thinking men are saying the dumb shit you are about this. If there is a connection I get it but at this point there is not any connection and we need to start bringing people for questioning?

This fucking country is one big reactionary asshole any more. When Reagan or Kennedy were shot did everybody jump on one side to blame the other? I don't remember that at all. But look at all this bullshit now of a bunch of pussies looking to find some way to lay blame at the other teams feet.

Despite how much you moronic loony lefties may want to, she's not going to be investigated because there is nothing to investigate her for. :roll:

I'm sure we'll still hear this moronic wailing for the next week or 2 from the left for Palin, Beck, etc to be investigated in order to try to score cheap political points. :roll:

There is no mistaking the bullseye Republicans from the Democratic Leadership Committee (DLC):

Get it now from the DLC website before it is scrubbed:

...or the personal and Daily Kos blog and talking head attacks on blue dog moderate Gabrielle Giffords; much more vitriolic than on any Tea Party site:

Why all the focus on Sarah Palin, BlueHen86?

In addition to the previously posted Democratic Leadership Committee "bullseye" target map subtitled "Behind Enemy Lines," and the 2008 quote from Obama advising his followers to "bring guns" to the fight, the Democratic Congressional Committee has more recently posted this gem of pacifism, once again utilizing the "bullseye" theme to "target" incumbent Republicans:

Don't forget the famous summer of 2010 speech to Latinos in which the President labeled Republicans as "enemies."

Maybe, just maybe, he is a lunatic that didn't know what he was. I have no idea what his ties to a KKK group are but again we have more retards trying to say what he definitely is based on almost nothing.

Do yourself a fucking favor and try to be a thinking man instead of an automaton.
