I don’t understand the point of this. Why are her politics (or any of the fallen men) relevant? Suppose the other three were ardent Obama-ites, would that make their deaths any less tragic? I’m just a little, itsy-bitsy unnerved that Ms. Malkin might be suggesting that, however lightly.

Uh, she wasn’t suggesting that at all. Go to the link. It was the president of the police officers’ guild who wrote it. Her post read, “Read stories of fallen Lakewood PD officers: Parents. Musician. And a Tea Party activist.”

It’s not Michelle’s writing....she linked to it. It’s a memorial-type writing by someone who knew the officers. And it’s nice. He’s just drawing attention to the fact that politics had become very important to her lately.

You don’t find it of interest that she was one of our own?

I do, and may she and all of them rest in peace.

Get over it! Michelle didn’t write it!

Use the link. All the officers were heralded in the article.

Michelle didn’t write this.

I’m glad to know this officer was one of us. The fact the other officers may or may not have been, certainly doesn’t cause me not to be remorseful concerning their loss.

People address situations like this the best they can. None of it can be entirely adequate. We’re just human, trying to express intense feelings of loss.

Well it certainly would have made them less likely to be killed on the job.

Any job.

The point is that she was one of us. How could anyone miss that?

She was obviously proud to be part of the Tea Party Movement. I am proud to be part of a movement that attracts people like her.

We should honor her as a proud tea party member and a member of the police department who risk their lives daily to protect the rest of us.

I guess you haven't noticed that all the violence is directed toward the tea party people or the right wing. Probably because you watch the left wing news. The left is in full force lie saying that the tea party goers are a violent threat when just the opposite is coming to the surface.

I hate to say this about the left wing...I have relatives that are still part of it by tradition...but I hope they pay dearly for allowing these lies to fester. It's wrong...the entire bigoted game is wrong.
