Sarah had nothing at all to do with the shooting. But thereafter her name was connected to it for false reasons. She was a public figure. If I were her, I would have privately written them a letter adding giffords to sarah’s prayer list, etc. I’m not saying Sarah had to but it would have been something I would do. Same thing if I were Jody foster after reagan’s shooting.
That seems to certainly be the case today for a sizable number of them. They need to emulate Neil Armstrong in retirement.
What you say is so insanely true. Hard to imagine, we live in a world where that lie has been told so many times that it’s taken as true.
He's not going anywhere, but I'm sure he's used up his phone priveledges. There are many more of her screwball constituents like Loughner in the district he could speak to.
If that had leaked out (and it would have) the left would run with it as Palin admitting guilt. That's how it works today.
Astronauts nowadays are not the same as the ones from the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs. The present day Space Shuttle was flown almost entirely by a computer. A Space Shuttle crew would train for years for one mission, and still they usually messed something up (i.e., launch a satellite into the wrong orbit or lose the tool bag while on a space walk). While astronauts used to be heroes, they are now just some experiment in diversity training.
Neither did I!
>> Morgan pointed out. But you were going to say, [Sarah Palin,] youve been irresponsible.
>> Kelly: Yeah, thats my plan.
WTF?
Liberal scumbagism — the disease of deception, stupidity, and outright lying.
Looks like your average bald astronaut.
He didnt seem too interested himself, leaving for space while his wife is hurt
Sounds like Mr. Gabby is trying to have it both ways...well, Sarah didn’t contact me but she isn’t responsible....but she did try to defeat my wife, dammit.
Hey, maybe Pierce Morgan ought to ask Mr. Gabby about Hussein’s rhetoric about getting “angry” and “getting in their face” and “pitchforks” and such. I know this astronaut said it wasn’t just Republicans....but it seems like he never mentioned any of the TRULY violent rhetoric out of Democrat mouths.
Ah Geez.
I am really getting too much on Giffords. What about the other people there were hurt or murdered
It’s number 64 on Amazon. I am not sure how long books stay on the list but it has been out for quite awhile. I definitely don’t think Sarah needs to call him, but I think the real villain of the story is Piers Morgan. I do believe that Mark stuck up for Sarah. However, Piers was trying to get him to blame Sarah. Sorry but I can’t stand Piers Morgan AT ALL!!!!!
Perhaps the best reason for privatizing the space industry.
Made me laugh, forgot about that nut job.
Palin received TENS of THOUSANDS of death-threats to her and her family in the wake of the media trying to pin complicity in the Arizona mass-murder to her.
For 24/7, the news-channels ran juxtaposing imagery of Giffords’ picture, blood on the parking-lot pavement, the school-photo of the murdered 9-year-old girl, and file-footage of Sarah Palin walking on stage at a rally. Over and over again. For days. Deliberately drawing a connection where there was none. The most vile depths I’ve ever seen the media sink. That kind of juxtaposition was reminiscent of what you see in old propaganda films, like the Nazi ones where they show film footage of rats scurrying around garbage-cans, interspersed with footage of Jews and Jewish businesses. Absolute evil, the way the media behaved.
For Kelly to continue on with this proves he’s a total, worthless dirtbag.
Piers Morgan is an anti American liberal hack. How ironic that he co-hosts a show called “America’s Got Talent” when he hates this country..he is always bashing the USA but has no issue collecting our currency.
How come Giffords husband was interviewed instead of Giffords? Is it because she is demented from the shooting?
We only see here in small soundbytes in controlled settings. If she is still demented why is she suitable for congress?
(no pun intended)
