Palin Targeted in Violence-Tinged Tweets Following Arizona Massacre
FoxNews ^ | 1/13/2011 | FoxNews.com

Critics of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin have turned to Twitter to post hate "tweets" suggesting that "she should be shot" and "assassinated."

A four-minute video montage of the the "tweets" -- apparently sent after Saturday's massacre in Arizona that left six people dead and 14 wounded, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords -- was posted to YouTube on Tuesday.

"My hatred for Sarah Palin continues to grow... I think this woman should be assassinated. Sorry about chya," was a message posted by "jenbobbi."

Another user, "misskate83," posted: "Sarah Palin should be shot for her encouragement of fanaticism against Democrats."

Calls to Twitter and YouTube were not returned on Thursday.

Here is prime examples of Leftists practicing the things they preach against, once again.

Will these morons never GET that they are the ones DOING the very things they are denouncing Sarah Palin for? only Sarah hasn't done them, the LEFTISTS have?

Srsly...hello! The lights are on but no one's home....

Talk about stuck on stupid.

One of the tweeters in this story got taken out of context and I think that got settled out, but the rest are legit. There is a lot of this crap on twitter.

If some libtard thinks this is some game that has to go tit for tat, the law of unintended consequences will be most unkind. These folks are completely insane.

Chris Matthews and Ed Schulz should be held responsible.

Typical Obama voters. The same type of reprobates are all emailing Cafferty.

Isn’t this kind of garbage against the law?

Ignorant people, often in their teens or early twenties, seem to enjoy hating conservatives. Gives them a purpose, I suppose. However, their hypocrisy is so glaring, you would would have to be wearing a welding mask to not see it. It would be ironically amusing if it weren’t so scary. May God continue to protect Sarah Palin, who’s only ‘crime’ seems to be her opposition to leftist policies and her continued popularity despite the left’s incessant attacks on her.

And you wonder why I still say that at least 1/3 of our population are brainless fools. No hope for these nitwits. They are the violent in though that cannot be saved. God help us! We are a nation in destruction.

Pass these around and link it elsewhere.
It’s time to do the Alinsky stomp on these cockroaches.

I am so happy that Rep. Giffords is on the mend, I pray she lives a long and happy life.

However, I wonder, since she is on the road to recovery, why nobody from her family has issued a statement. I think a statement from them, asking for the blame game to stop would carry significant weight. John Green, Christina-Taylor Green’s father who is buried his daughter today has spoken out that the one person to blame is the shooter.

Too late Faux news, you’re dead to me. Along with redstate and...let’s just say the list goes on and on. I cleared out a bunch of sites on my “favorites” after the shooting Saturday. It’s cool, more time to pursue other interests. I like FR, C4P, Rush, Hillbuzz. The rest can go straight to hell.

"Sarah Palin should be shot for her encouragement of fanaticism against Democrats."

A classic. We're dealing with room temperature IQs here, folks.

Making direct threats is, but I guess this isn’t considered a direct threat.

Well shoot, ya think every Imam tells each individual follower of islam to go commit xyz jihad in America? No, they make general brainwashing statements and suggest that those ‘targets’ should be dealt with because they are evil. Those Imams are threatening us. We get that. What those twitter leftists et. al. are doing is no different.

Gosh, in fact, it looks exactly like what is being done to Sarah Palin. In this case, it IS personal, it IS directed, and it IS coming from the left. That mass murderer in Arizona is crazy. What the leftists are doing with that nut, is agitating deliberately against Sarah Palin.

The nut has the excuse of being a nut. The leftists threatening Sarah Palin are doing it deliberately. That concerns me.

It is so moronic as to be laughable, only this isn’t even remotely a funny topic. At all. Its deplorable.

If the MSM ever go around to calling them out on it, they would simply change the script to say that those posts were done by “conservative operatives” intending to make kind-hearted well-intentioned liberals look bad.

Any way to get a cache or mirror of her tweets?

Its sobering to realize that the legacy media could care less about honestly reporting the truth - they are a completely activist press now.

They've always been biased to the left, but recently they've thrown any pretense of impartiality into the trash.

The rise of alternative media - the first competition they've had since the birth of electronic media, has driven them batsh*t crazy.
