I suspect that the more we learn about Loughner, the less we will feel secure that the world is a tidy, orderly place.

The fact that 32% of Americans swallow the Left's vicious lies is adequate evidence of that.

The Lamestream really shot themselves in the foot here. The narrative has turned against them now that everyone is talking about their slanted tone and agenda during the coverage.

The good old days of the so called MSM controlling the message are long over. Enjoy your slow death and irrelevancy.

In other news, 33% of Americans could not find their own behinds with two hands and a GPS.

Proof that RATs think we’re all stupid and believe their propaganda.

That’s the same 32% who claim that they’ve been abducted by aliens.

Howard Fineman mentioned on Countdown just now that 2/3rds of America don’t see the link between the shooter and the right wing.

THEN added that the problem the left wing has it believes it has the moral high ground on EVERY ISSUE and won’t accede to those whose position on an issue are stronger....

WOW.

I find these statics interesting.
32% of Americans identify themselves as Democrats.
32% of those surveyed think the “atmosphere of hatred” caused Jared Loughner to kill and wound about a score of people. That seems to indicate that 32% of Americans are nuts!
Could it be the same 32%?

Ed Schultz said he wants Sarah to apologize :)

He did a whole segment on the 'hate speech' over on FNC today(OK more like three). Then he played a clip of FNC/BoR calling MSNBC a hate channel, and he said that remark was hateful.

This poll proves that most of the country is smarter than the political hack AKA the Pima County Sheriff

That’s a good sign

This sort of poll is worthless. The fact of the matter is that the only person who can answer this question is a 22 year old mentally ill nut. Nobody else has a clue.

You could spend your entire life being kind to others while humming Amazing Grace, and you would not alter the behavior of a psycho one whit. The Arizona gunman may have been a left-wing nut, but I think NUT is the operative word here.

And one more thing, it's easy to press for civility and playing-nicely-with-others when you have just finished getting nearly everything you ever wanted. Dems are so good at this; anyone who disagrees with them is just “mean-spirited.” NOW they want bipartisanship. Now they want everyone to play sweetly. These people have run all over conservative Americans, and it would be a serious mistake for us to agree to censorship, gun control, or political compromise.

The Tucson shooting occurred because of a loose nut with a gun. If the big-mouth sheriff of Pima County had done his job and prevented the nut from owning a gun, it's doubtful this tragedy would have happened.

I hope all the conservative radio talkers will spend plenty of time replaying all the history of inflammatory statements coming from the Left.

Their audience will probably be larger than normal for a while, with extra Lefties tuning in, trying to find fault with them.

When will the media shut up about the so-called “toxic political culture” in America?

If the worst examples of said “toxic culture” are a few posters and comments by talk radio hosts, then America’s political culture is far from toxic.

You media talking heads want some examples of truly toxic political cultures? How about Pakistan, where leaders get done in by their own bodyguards? Or Afghanistan, where every rival faction has its guns trained on everybody else? Sudan? Congo? Iraq? Russia? You get the idea.

You think politicians and journalists fret about a few harsh words in countries where politics really is played with human lives?

Imagine how the left`s blame game will kick into overdrive when we experience our next 9-11.

I don`t think this country can ever unite on anything anymore. Part of me says let`s get on with the breakup and get it over with. It`s going to happen anyway...sooner or later.
