It's clear to me reading through this thread that many of you don't give two shits about this congresswoman or anyone else who dies or was injured. This tragedy is an opportunity for continuation of this ridiculous political effort at getting Fox news, or Rush Limbaugh, or whatever other non like-minded media off the air. Keith Olberman within a half hour of the event wasn't man enough to point to any specifics but blamed “right wing radio personalities” for this. Sad that he knows his audience is that impressionable. Sad that's what he (and you) really care about. What is it?......”marginalizing the other”.
It's an opportunity for liberals to control the language of your opposition. Please explain to me how using perfectly acceptable metaphors like “crosshairs”, “aiming for”, “in my sights” are off limits now (for the “other) because some random individual might be influenced to kill, but making movies about killing people you disagree with is considered art. There was nothing malicious about Palin's use of the crosshairs and you all know that. I know you haven't all been sleeping for the last decade either. You have seen/watched/been part of this political discourse your incorrectly attributing to this event, but I think you all know that as well. It's very calculated, and frankly disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
I feel like you're all hoping this woman passes away so her funeral can be turned into a “we will win” affair ala Paul Wellstone , chasing republicans away who actually really care about her and her family.
