Not sure how people can blame Palin and say that "the right's hate filled rhetoric" fuels violence like this and then turn around and spew hate filled rhetoric that encourages violence. Meanwhile, they're claiming to be intellectually superior and that they believe in non-violence.

You either have to be bat shit insane or a really stupid individual to think it makes sense to condemn all violence and violent speech while openly asking for someone to die violently.
Exactly.

The fact that you guys are fighting so hard against the accusations just means you know you are guilty of it.

BOTTOM LINE: Sarah Palin, once again, has found a way to become part of the story.


MEDIA: Sarah Palin directly and knowingly caused the murders of six innocent human beings.

PALIN: No, I didn't.

MEDIA: Stop making it all about you!!! This is about the people who were shot!!!

I'm damn near getting to the point of thinking anyone that willingly runs for public office must be fucked in the head and thus shouldn't get my vote.

Now, I'm not 100% sure on this, but the image that Palin had that makes people blame her was a MAP, right? A *map* with little circles-and-crosses superimposed on it?

REALLY? Somebody thinks THAT means "go shoot somebody?"

That's really reaching.

That is the exact "evidence" that was being trotted out before the bodies were even cold. Literally.

But this is all about the right being hateful, they tell me.

Even though the shooter was "a left wing liberal" according to those who know him...

NYT changes text of Obama speech in order to make it look like he blames the right.

Well, "those guys" said NYT. I am still trying to find an actual NYT link that shows the change.

That's the exactly the point that the (left wing) blog post was trying to make. Read it, it's good. And refreshing to see some sanity on the left.
