He’s completely right, which is unfortunate in this case.
Was there any evidence that the nutty shooter, Loughner, gave a care about what Rush, Sarah, or any GOP politician whatsoever had to say? At the most, it looks like he might have taken some libertarian ideas into his bizarre, self-contradictory philosophical pantheon. How come nobody’s blaming Ron Paul?
Both sides are. I saw a post here earlier that asked if we should blame Obama for it.
Blaming Zero for it makes as much sense as blaming Palin for it.
We are surprised in what way exactly?
I’m pretty mad about this. Rush is right. Disgusting!
Couple of good points by Rush:
Obama had a national Moment of Silence for the Tucson shooting. Why no such tribute when those soldiers were killed by the jihadist at Ft Hood?
Loughner was involved in the occult and listened to Heavy Metal music. Are the Democrats saying that crosshairs on a map can influence someone like Loughner to kill someone but the occult and Heavy Metal can’t?
Was listening to Megyn Kelly on Fox.
Two points:
1) Woman who grabbed the magazine was interviewed. She said the shooter was going down a set of chairs outside the Safeway, which were for people at the event held by Giffords, and simply firing off shots one-by-one, aimed at whoever was in that chair.
2) The updated DHS memo overnight, per Fox (forget the reporter), contains no reference to American Renaissance.
They've done most of the damage they wanted to do. The meme is out there, among the crazies on their side: Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh did this. That's enough for them. They'll move on; that's what makes them the Drive-By Media.
As Rush said today: the plans have been drawn up, they are sitting in a drawer, somewhere in Washington. Sooner or later there will be an incident that fits their needs more closely, and at that time they are going to make a move to shut down all discussion of political topics by conservatives, including the internet, and to criminalize the discussion of those topics as "hate speech" and "inciting violence" and "endangering innocent lives."
Rush and Beck have been great today. Exposing the left like nobody can.
Even when they report they themselves are scum, they include the proof.
Democrats Swear to Hold Up US Constitution and Rob Us
Rush just made a great point, if the sheriff isn’t playing politics in his claim of a charged violent political rhetoric environment, where was the Congresswoman’s security from his office?
I would like Rush to stop calling this guy Loughner a kid.
I hardly consider this insane man a kid.
Rush is spot on. This asshat that created this situation is a nut. He Killed people and I pray the hardest for the family of that child. The Pima County Sheriff is a shit-wad and has no need to be in a position of responsibility. I pray
I remember the young Rush of the 1990s did more than state the obvious. I was listening today for a-while but got bored.
The media including Fox didn’t miss a beat in laying this at Palin’s feet and at the “tea party’s” feet.
Its almost as if they had the strategy all ready and were just waiting for the excuse to launch.
Propagandists never sleep. They sit at their keyboards looking for another way to apply the propaganda. If the sun comes up in the morning, its all thanks to Obama. If its too hot, though, its Palin and the tea party.
Thank you Rush Limbaugh.
Thanks for all you do and especially thanks for taking on the liberal haters and their equally hateful double standards...
Again, thanks Rush - you're keeping all of us safe.
The left is quick to blame a “right-wing inspired climate of hate” as the trigger for these murders. They are, as always, totally wrong. What was the climate of hate that inspired Mark Chapman to murder John Lennon? Did he find the lyrics to “Imagine” to be too vitriolic? John F. Kennedy was revered by the left and respected by the right. Did the quiet, pre-Viet Nam era of Camelot cause Lee Harvey Oswald to take a sniper’s rifle into the Texas School Depository Building? And what right-wing talk radio host caused Sirhan Sirhan to shoot Bobby Kennedy? Bob Grant?
In Animal Farm, the collectivists used the death of Major, the pig, to advance their cause.
Bill Clinton tried to make something of the OK City bombing.
Then there was the Wellstone memorial.
Now this.
Rahm said it, don’t let a crisis go to waste.
Dude is a hard-left, anti-government nutjob. Probably is an anarchist.
Why would he be listening to Rush Limbaugh? Or Sarah Palin?
The Main-Stream Media is so virently hard-left that they can’t even think straight. But huge amounts of the population don’t even realize that.
