Ted, > Show me your posts

How about I just make that post now? The inflammatory language of the Becks, Limbaughs, Olbermanns, Matthews', etc. has got to stop.

We can have stronger gun control laws and/or enforcement without gutting the 2nd amendment. In fact, we should.

The birthers, the 9/11 truthers, the "Obama is a Muslim" nonsense, that all has to stop. Same with the continual blaming of Bush. And the trashing of Sarah Palin.

I for one am DISGUSTED with the reaction (and reaction to the reaction) to this shooting. What an absolute DISGRACE to Congresswoman Giffords, who is otherwise a fine lady and distinguished public servant, and to the memory of the victims who died thanks to this asshole.

Instead, we are now embroiled in a debate over whether the Tea Party is culpable, whether the MSM is reprehensible in their rush to judgement, yada yada yada. We are using the suffering and the struggle of the victims to recover (at least those who haven't already died) for our own SELFISH motives.

How about we just let it go and refocus on recovering from this senseless crime? Like I told Bentway, the real asshole is smiling in his mugshot. THAT'S the real enemy here, not conservatives or liberals, but jerkoffs who want this great nation to collapse on itself.

And how do we counter anarchist lunatics like that? By doing the opposite of what they believe. By emerging stronger and more unified from this. Not by feeding into the mess.

Ted, this is what I'm talking about. After dragging Sarah Palin into this mess, the MSM is now blaming her for supposedly "finding a way to become part of the story."

blogs.abcnews.com

Palin is justified in defending herself and calling out the "blood libel" of the media, although she could have let the attacks slide. Now ABC's "The Note" is accusing her of not trying to go beyond the controversy.

No, it's not up to her to go beyond it. She is a direct target of shameful attacks, so it's only natural for her to defend herself. Instead, it's up to the media to go beyond it.

I know you despise her, but don't tell me that Palin deserves it. Unless Palin actually called for the assassination of Democratic politicians, she does not deserve to be implicated for the AZ shooting. That would be a grave injustice and would suit the twisted motives of the shooter.
