The author also goofed in a predictable
modern reporter fashion with regards to
firearm knowledge:

Rifles do NOT have cross-hairs; rifle SCOPES do.

But since these servants of the New World Order
have their Satanic marching orders to destroy any
figure of boldness & Godly-integrity in U.S. government,
the Truth is not crucial to them.

Now that’s not true.

Let’s say you whack your enemy upside the head, due to a loss of ammo, in your M1A and being in to close proximity...

You could indeed have cross hairs

Rifle Scopes have crosshairs but only those ignorant of what is seen looking through a telescopic sight would imagine that what Palin used represents a rifle scope. I don’t know about the map markers but they look EXACTLY like what are called register marks on offset printing plates. These marks are used to align images.

Only someone with zero knowledge of actual telescopic sights would imagine the crosshairs extending outside the circle or a frosted appearance inside the circle and crosshairs are not usually simple intersecting lines of the same exact size from one side of the circle to another.

On the other hand the bullseye figure used by the Democrats for the same purpose is well within the parameters of a normal bullseye target. Of course that is okay because they are Democrats, had they wished to use actual telescopic sight crosshair images that would have been okay because they are Democrats and their targets are Republicans.
