i didnt think the blood libel meme anti-semitic.
i just thought it mind-bending in its stupidity.
here's a blurb about the blood libel:
Blood libel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
what is she saying by invoking it? first she likens american neo-fascism to judiasm, and so displaces this from a political to a religious matter (which is might as well be judging by the way the wagons are rallied around the defense of the identity...)
the implication is that the right is being victimized by a force like anti-semitism across this tragedy in tucson.
and that any linkage between the neo-fascist predelection for the rhetoric of gun violence and anything that they do not find advantageous to acknowledge as an outcome is like blood libel.
it's amazingly stupid, even by the low standards to which one typically holds sarah palin.
