Good points. As for Jared Loughner, he seems to have been more a paranoid, demented loner than someone with a political agenda.
There’s more evidence to hold Al Gore responsible for the actions of Ted Kaczynski than there is to hold Palin responsible for the actions of Jared Loughner.
You only need to remember what took place at Paul Wellston’s memorial service when Republicans paying their respect were booed out. Or Clinton laughing leaving Brown’s funeral. ‘Nuf said!!!
re: It took less than 24 hours
More like less than two hours!
Don’t forget Whoraldo as well who fueling the “fire”!!!
Michelle Malkin has a great series of articles and posts on this going back years to the days when deranged Democratic operatives vandalized GOP campaign headquarters around the country in the 2004 election. Remember—one was even the son of a Dem Congressman? The examples are countless—remember the union thugs that beat up conservative protestors in Philadelphia (ultimately resulting in an Ed Rendell cover-up)? Remember the “Smoking Gun” mugshot gallery of felons wearing Obama t-shirts? This has been going on for years.
Jared Loughner: Driven to Kill by Right-Wing Extremists?
10 January 2011 06:11 John W. Lillpop
By John W. Lillpop
A sick, despicable coward named Jared Loughner turned an ordinary shopping center in TucsonJohn W. Lillpop, Arizona into a killing field on Saturday morning. This deranged monster murdered six innocent people in cold blood, including a nine-year-old girl, and inflicted severe injuries on several others, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
Unfortunately, the tragedy and sorrow of this awful day were magnified when, in some quarters, the events in Tucson were blamed on “right-wing” extremists.
The implication was that hard-edged rhetoric broadcast by Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck had somehow driven the 22-year-old Loughner into the abyss of insanity and murder.
Unbelievably, some even tried to blame the carnage directly on Sarah Palin.
As one who has listened to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck for years and years, I admit that I have never—never!—heard any of these conservative superstars even come close to suggesting that any form of violence should be used to advance conservative principles.
For sure, Limbaugh, Hannity, and Beck routinely express very strong opinions about the massive intrusion of government into the lives of the American people, spending by Congress which has exploded the federal deficit, and the socialist change advocated by Barack Obama.
Strong opinions and a call for resistance, yes. But violence of any sort? Never!
However, the Tucson slaughter has led many to call for an easing of the harsh rhetoric and hate speech.
I agree.
In fact, the following examples of outrageous rhetoric should serve as warnings to all:
Left Wing Host Jokes About Shooting George W. Bush
While Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck have never joked about killing Barack Obama, left-wing radio talk show hostess Randi Rhodes once suggested that President George W. Bush should be shot.
As reported in the media, Rhodes said the following:
“The (leader) is the president of the United States, so why doesn’t his father or his brother … take him out for a little fishing, and let him say some Hail Marys – he loves God so much. … You know, Hail Mary, full of grace, God is with thee – pow [gunshot sound] – works for me.”
Now THAT is reckless and irresponsible!
Congressional Democrats Say “F” the President
President Obama’s “deal” with Republicans to extend the Bush tax cuts to all, including the well-to- do, spawned extreme rage from those on the far-left of the Democrat party.
This leftist rage was reported in the media where congressional reporter Carl Hulse revealed that “Vulgar words were aimed at President Obama” during a closed-door meeting of Democratic House members, a fact initially reported by Roll Call.
To be precise, the words were “F*** the President.”
That sort of language directed at a sitting president could cause a barely- sane person to take insane action, and is otherwise the sort of rhetoric that should be avoided, especially by members of the president’s own party.
Bringing Guns to Knife Fights
During the 2008 presidential campaign, Candidate Barack Obama himself resorted to extreme rhetoric on occasion, including this quote:
“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said in Philadelphia last night. “Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”
Surely a brilliant orator like Barack Obama could conjure up a less violent way to motivate his base?
This is even more dangerous rhetoric that should be avoided.
Republicans and Hand to Hand Combat
Barack Obama’s use of violent language did not end with his inauguration to the U.S. presidency.
In fact, on October 7 of 2010, President Obama said the following:
“A Republican majority in Congress would mean “hand-to-hand combat” on Capitol Hill for the next two years, threatening policies Democrats have enacted to stabilize the economy, President Obama warned Wednesday.”
Hand to hand combat? Is that sort of war-like language really necessary, Mr. President?
Is there not a danger that some unhinged soul might see your words as a declaration of war against fellow Americans who just happen to be Republicans?
Jesse Jackson: Cutting Obama’s Nuts Off....
Jesse Jackson: Cutting Obama’s Nuts Off
As reported in the media, the Reverend Jesse Jackson chose to use very graphic and violent language during the 2008 campaign to describe his disaffection with candidate Barack Obama.
“Jackson was caught on tape during a Fox News interview saying that he believed Obama was “talking down to black people,” remarking on recent speeches the Illinois senator made about fathers taking care of their children.
“I want to cut his nuts off,” Jackson later remarked.
Even though Reverend Jackson is of the same race and political ideology as Barack Obama, that sort of language is unacceptable for broadcast into homes where young, impressionable and unstable minds tune in.
It is also quite Un-Christian, Reverend!
In sum, the notion that vulgar, demeaning rhetoric should be reigned in is a good one.
Let’s start by slapping offenders on the left into shape!
Just ask this lady: Madeleine Duncan Brown!!!
Did Barack Obama Cause the Shootings Yesterday in Tucson?

Townhall)
The media and democrats want us to focus on the nation’s “caustic political climate” after the tragedy yesterday. Maybe they should start with President Obama.
He may be the worst offender.
** Obama: “They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”
** Obama to His Followers: “Get in Their Faces!”
** Obama on ACORN Mobs: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”
** Obama to His Mercenary Army: “Hit Back Twice As Hard”
** Obama on the private sector: “We talk to these folks… so I know whose ass to kick.“
** Obama to voters: Republican victory would mean “hand to hand combat”
** Obama to lib supporters: “It’s time to Fight for it.”
** Obama to Latino supporters: “Punish your enemies.”
** Obama to democrats: “I’m itching for a fight.”
If the media really wants to improve the “caustic political climate” they may want to start at the White House.
Did Barack Obama’s Violent Rhetoric Inspire Mass Murder In Arizona?
“In 2009, at the height of the heated town hall debates where America stood up and told the Obama regime they did NOT want government run health care, Obama gathered up his union thugs from the SEIU, and told them to “hit back twice as hard“!
The direct result of Obama’s violent rhetoric was the severe beating of Kenneth Gladney, a black man, at a ST Louis town hall meeting. Gladney was beaten by a large group of the purple shirted union thugs, and called a n*gg*r numerous times. Gladney was beaten so severely that he was confined to a wheel chair while he recuperated. Big Government has the nasty details of the results of Barack Obama’s direct call for violence, here.
Oh, and it gets better, an NAACP leader spoke out saying Kenneth Gladney DESERVED the beating that almost killed him because, get this, he wasn’t “black enough” and was acting like an “Uncle Tom.” You see, in the black community, and the democrat party as a whole, any deviation from the party line is simply not tolerated. You can read the details of the statement here.”
Lets not forget the assault on U.S. Sec. of State Condi Rice...(Red Paint)blood splattered while yelling “War Criminal” by Code Pink
WHERE WAS THE OUTRAGE!!!
“Targeting strategy” for Democrats who hope to go behind “enemy lines” and score a bullseye by nailing the target. That comes from the the Democratic Leadership Committee website
Al Sharpton was one of the first to place blame for the Az. tragedy on Palin and the tea party.
This says it all....
“the left owns political violence”
Ain’t that the truth!
I suspect the shooter was the one who created Gifford’s youtube page.
I suspect it is real because the Youtube link on her Conrgressional Home page links to that page.
That list can go and on and on and on
