I have no major problems with her message. She has a right to defend herself against unfair accusations, although I was disappointed she just couldn’t say it was a good time to bring the temperature down a little.

Now we have to wait and see what results from it…
Will her poll numbers go up or down?
Will she dial it down a bit? (I think she will)
Will mainstream Republicans come to her defense (they have left her hanging in the wind)
And most importantly, what will Giffords have to say about it when she is able?

Anyway, her hopes for the presidency have been greatly diminished. The one thing all Americans have learned is what a divisive figure she is and I don’t think they are in any mood for more of that after Bush, and yes, Obama.

They will be looking for someone who can bring the country together again and most people know that will never be Palin.

Also, she looks tired, a little haggard. Not sleeping well, I imagine.

What an incredibly cowardly way to address this issue. Why didn’t she put her big girl panties on and let her cohorts at Fox ask her a few prepared questions?

Oh well, that’s how losers roll.

Someone has got to stop this hateful speech and make this man put down his instrument of destruction :

An amazing response from a great leader. She will make a great president in 2013. Shame on those in the media that pinned this murder on Sarah Palin, shame on them!!

Sarah Palin, What a hypocrite!

Great response, I can almost imagine an oval office in the backdrop.

well, she handled it well.Didn’t expect a rhetoric on the offensive… I give the speech a B

….and this is coming from someone who disagrees with most of her political views

More detail , please , Professor .

I support Sarah Palin and condemn the liberal hacks, the hateful talking heads, the idiot politicians and the left leaning media that has tried, unsuccessfully, to smear Sarah Palin, the Tea Party and Conservatives.
Sarah Palin is showing just how irrelevant and useless the lame stream media is as she unveils the next phase of her journey to the White House.

“…although I was disappointed she just couldn’t say it was a good time to bring the temperature down a little.”

Why do we need her… or anyone else for that matter, to tell us to tone it down? Shouldn’t we do that ourselves?

my god…WHO does she thinks she is? President?!

GET the HOOK!

if Palin really wants to be in the white house then she’s got a whole lot of work to do to win the support of Independents…and thats a FACT. she still got a long long way

Well, that was certainly uninspiring. This is basically derivative of every “speech” Palin has ever given, laden with same empty catch phrases and clichés. Of course, there was the obligatory homage to Raygun, but in a rather odd sense. And, it does seem tastelessly out of place with the tragic injuries of Raygun’s Mr. Brady at the hands of a bullet intended for Raygun. Palin really doesn’t seem to grasp context at all. I am sure it will work with Palin’s crazed devotees, but probably no one else.

I do notice the dismissive nature of her dealing with the map which she says both sides have used. True. But, how immature. “Everybody else is doing it.”, never worked as an excuse with my mother. Then, she mentions the Republican victory in 2010, never referencing the failure to defeat Majority Leader and capture the Senate, a defeat in some large measure lain at her own threshold by the losses of her “zany” hand-picked candidates. Palin never seems able to take any accountability for anything. How much better things might be for her if she did.

Of course, we had the self-exculpatory “arms = votes” equation which struck me as a terrible diminution of our democratic process. I’ve never thought of our democracy being reduced to hardware, and I am terribly offended at that implication.

And, we had to have the expected pettiness by her slam of those who deemed the reading of the abridged version of the Constitution in the House, at a cost of US $1.1M, symbolic. What was it but symbolic? And, is symbolism inherently wrong? That would make the flag wrong, wouldn’t it? This needed to be better vetted. To her credit, Palin did reference, albeit not by name, the lunacy of Allen West and his call for additional limits on free speech.

What I found most offensive was her dredging up of the Beckeresque American exceptionalism which takes us nowhere but is simply an attempt, I failed one I should hope, at quashing dialogue. “Sure bad things happen, but at least we are better than other people ….” What’s with that?

As I said, this was nothing except, perhaps, a bit of Zweibeck for her crazed devotees. If this is Palin’s ticket back to legitimacy, she arrived at the gate after the plane had departed.

Holy shit she’s a major part of the finger poking!!!! She’s as bad as Olbermann and Rush and that fat Ed dude on MSSHITBC!!!!!

People that love America and are PROUD to be Americans, will be inspired by this speech. The hard left will just bitch about it being written by a speech writer and hurl personal insults at Sarah. They are incapable of being inspired by words such as these because truly LOVING a country just isn’t in their DNA

What a bunch of self-serving drivel.

Now we get some crap about how crosshairs and “don’t retreat, reload” aren’t REALLY the violent gun metaphors she’s been trafficking in for two years. She could have stopped all this last weekend with a simple apology about how the crosshairs map had become unintentionally tragic, and moved on. That was too much to ask of the thin-skinned narcissist.

Palin Babe

This is all you will remember of her.

A 7:40 speech and a whole 1:30 actually spent talking about the victims. That’s 15% of dedication to those who died and 85% in defensive rhetoric. And whose the OPPORTUNISTS taking advantage of a tragedy to steer the attention toward them instead of the crime committed?

Additionally Palin was magnanimous enough to spend precisely :15 seconds talking about Gabrielle Giffords but only in the context of her fulfilling her duty in the GOP ploy to read the Constitution and not any other achievement or personal tidbit that might reveal respect for her humanity as something other than a pawn an event staged for GOP populace brownie points. And NO MENTION of any of the other victims names.

I’m not calling Palin heartless, I’m calling her shallow. This plea may work for those who already fetishize Palin but it’s lack of depth and impersonal tone is paper thin and doesn’t hold water.

AGAIN, every media outlet and show LEFT AND RIGHT that spends any time reporting on the issue that spends an overabundance of time NOT discussing the victims is taking advantage of the tragedy if they have spent too much time speaking about everything BUT the tragedy. If you spend time defending yourself or those likes you, you’re taking attention away from the tragedy.

The lack of true compassion and real depth just proves that her folksy charm wears off when real life issues are at stake. Sorry Palin, you didn’t hit a BULLSEYE with this. Have your ghostwriters go back to the drawing board.

Frankley I see no difference in the Liberals that spew their hate here and
Jared Lougherin. They just have not gone postal yet. Were I Palin, Beck, Limbaugh
OReilly, Hannity or anyone on Fox News I would further expand my Security Detail.

I’m pretty sure that’s what he’s going for and I have to agree he’s good at it.

The “dueling pistols” reference was ridiculous.
I guess Sarah wants us to be proud of her because she didn’t actually shoot Giffords herself with a musket at 20 paces.

She should have left that out. And “Blood Libel” also. That is the phrase people will focus on today, and not in a positive way.

>.She has a right to defend herself against unfair accusations, although I was disappointed she just couldn’t say it was a good time to bring the temperature down a little.

The temperature has always been hot – we all just feel it now with the internet and 24/7 cable news. But with that amplification, our “leaders” on both sides need to set an example. Whether it’s the right talking about 2nd amendment remedies or the President referring to the opposition as terrorists, they should know better…

I really don’t waste a moment these days thinking anything about Palin, but as I heard her speech today, it is typical Palin. As someone says, you can always tell when something is written for her, and it seemed to be more about her than the victims. Also noted, she waited for her Fox buddies to pave the way, before she had the courage to speak. Even though she is not responsible for the Tucson tradjedy herself, she has been a major contributor to the hate in this country, she will never back down from her hateful words, and her chances of even becoming a candidate have diminished greatly!!

Not a bad political speech but that all it is, a political speech, and one designed to make excuses for her actions while attacking others for theirs.

But, wouldn’t it have been lovely if in a moment of charity, reflection and introspection she had said, “In retrospect, I would not have done that.”? In would have been redemptive for her and healing for the nation.

See that’s the GAME the left plays. Get you to apologize for something you DIDN’T do and then tar and feather you for it. Sadly way too many Republicans fall for it.

When has Palin ever apologized for anything?

Seeing 2012 From My Window said:
You know what’s been interesting about this whole situation? When Ft. Hood happened, Obama was front and center urging calm and telling us not to rush to judegement until we had the facts. His silence has been absolutely deafening as he watches the left accusing people of murder with no evidence at all. Now that’s leadership Mr. President!

Who told you that?

Your hysteria and paranoiac delusions are now approaching insane levels.

“After the shocking tragedy, I listened at first puzzled, then with concern, and now sadness…”

She’s working through the stages of grief, y’all. When she gets to RAGE stage it’s time for us all to take cover.

I can’t believe she included “dueling pistols”. “You think I’M bad..back in the day, they used to SHOOT each other!” Uh, Sarah..Giffords was shot in the head. God she’s stupid.

CNN has only played one 20 second clip of the Palin speech all morning.(the “dueling” part lol)

My first impression is that it was very polished and she found a decent speech writer. There is a WORLD of difference when Sarah reads someone elses words and when she speaks for herself. She thinks Obama has a teleprompter problem? lolI have no major problems with her message. She has a right to defend herself against unfair accusations, although I was disappointed she just couldn’t say it was a good time to bring the temperature down a little. Now we have to wait and see what results from it…Will her poll numbers go up or down?Will she dial it down a bit? (I think she will)Will mainstream Republicans come to her defense (they have left her hanging in the wind)And most importantly, what will Giffords have to say about it when she is able? Anyway, her hopes for the presidency have been greatly diminished. The one thing all Americans have learned is what a divisive figure she is and I don’t think they are in any mood for more of that after Bush, and yes, Obama. They will be looking for someone who can bring the country together again and most people know that will never be Palin. Also, she looks tired, a little haggard. Not sleeping well, I imagine.

Do you ever let the honest truth get in the way of what you have had written for you.

Indeed, the most pluralistic city in the country is somehow the most racist. Some more of that Palin logic at work, I see.

So let me get this straight…. the left wing media, first without any evidence, attempts to tie Palin and the Tea Party to the actions of a deranged man. Then, after the facts come out proving that this person had a perverted obsession with Rep. Giffords long before the TeaParty or Sarah Palin were ever heard of, they shift to blame to generic “right wing rhetoric” while completely ignoring Kill Bush signs and T Shirts, ACTUAL acts of violence committed by the left, and proof of some of the most vile liberal hate spewing that the right produced in defense of it’self….. THEN the argument changed to – they are guilty of pointing fingers in defense of themselves…. THEN we here…. Oh look at Palin hiding and not making any comments other than e mails to Glenn Beck….. THEN she responds with a very well written speech, very well articulated, reaffirming the exceptionalism of our country and its liberties and look how she gets attacked by the very people who demanded she respond. What is the sick obsession with Sara Palin from the left? Why does she offend you so much? Is it her love of our country? Is it that she is a woman? Her popularity? Her Beauty? Don’t give me the intelligence argument because for people that vote for Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer that argument doesn’t pass the smell test. Seriously, someone from the left please answer the question honestly. I wasn’t supportive of Palin running for President and wouldn’t have voted for her in the GOP primary but now I think I’m going to just for the satisfaction of potentially pushing you people over the edge…

Thanks to Mediaite for publishing the full text of Palin’s statement. What a refreshing change, to actually report on what Palin says, rather than on a leftwing pundit’s attacks on her! This is almost unprecedented. MSNBC should take note. As well as the rest of the media, which strangely manages to devote huge amounts of coverage to Palin while trying to hide and distort her message. Or even accuse her of causing a murder (“blood on her hands”).

No U.S. president, I expect, will ever appoint a Secretary of the Imagination. But if such a cabinet post ever were created, and Richard Foreman weren’t immediately appointed to it, you’d know that the Republicans were in power. Republicans don’t believe in the imagination, partly because so few of them have one, but mostly because it gets in the way of their chosen work, which is to destroy the human race and the planet. Human beings, who have imaginations, can see a recipe for disaster in the making; Republicans, whose goal in life is to profit from disaster and who don’t give a hoot about human beings, either can’t or won’t. Which is why I personally think they should be exterminated before they cause any more harm.

Remember the uproar over that one? Me neither. How about this, from Rep Paul Kanjorski (D-PA)?

Amadou Diallo was unavailable for comment. Abner Louima simply said “WTF?”

Rep. Gabrielle Gifford’s cousin has a message for Sarah Palin.
Dear Sarah Palin:

I am writing today about how you are responding to and how you will respond to the assassination attempt on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and the murders of six other people.

By way of introduction and background, I am a cousin of Congresswoman Giffords. I am also an ally of Dr. George Tiller, the Kansas doctor who provided abortion services and who was assassinated on May 31, 2009.

When the Congresswoman’s offices were vandalized after her vote on healthcare reform, I wrote to her. As I recall, I congratulated her on her strong spirit in the face of that attack and other threats. I told her that I was proud of her courage on behalf of health care reform and sorry that she had to show the same courage as those who provide health care to pregnant women who need abortions and other reproductive health care services. Both have been the subjects of hateful, vitriolic language. Both have been put in rifle crosshairs.

In the aftermath of the murder of Dr. Tiller and the attempted murder of Congresswoman Giffords, many have spoken out about the role that hateful language played or might have played in encouraging these acts of violence. Immediately after Congresswoman Giffords was shot, many people voiced concern about such things as your “Take Back the 20″ map targeting congressional districts of those representatives, including Congresswoman Giffords, who voted for health care reform by placing their districts in the crosshairs of a gun sight. Commentators have also noted your advice to people disappointed in the outcome of the 2008 elections to “lock and load” and “don’t retreat, reload.”

As I am sure you are now aware, Congresswoman Giffords herself had expressed concern about your map in particular. She said: “We need to realize that the rhetoric, and the firing people up and … for example, we’re on Sarah Palin’s targeted list, but the thing is, the way she has it depicted, we’re in the crosshairs of a gun sight over our district. When people do that, they’ve got to realize that there are consequences to that action…”

Your response so far, has been to defend the images and language you use. In an e-mail to Mr. Glenn Beck you said, “Our children will not have peace if politicos just capitalize on this to succeed in portraying anyone as inciting terror and violence.”

Ms. Palin, the moment calls for more than this. I am a strong supporter of the First Amendment and of your right to defend your words and to challenge those who seek to connect them to the assassination attempt and murders in Tucson, Arizona. I also know that there is often a very long distance between words and actions.

But even if your map and your language had nothing to do with these murders or any others that might occur in the future, a compassionate response would acknowledge that possibility and indicate a willingness, in her honor, in honor of the people who died, to consider this concern.

Whether or not you are willing to take this concern seriously, it is, nevertheless a critical moment to clarify your beliefs and principles. Now is the time to answer these questions and lead.
Do you believe it is appropriate to bring about political change in America through the use of or threat of violence?

When you suggest targeting candidates, use gun-sight crosshairs to do so, and speak repeatedly about guns, locking and reloading do you mean that violence is or could be properly used to encourage or ensure certain outcomes of elections or legislative votes?

If you do not mean literally that elected officials should be targeted with rifles and threatened by political activists armed with loaded weapons, what do you mean? What should politically frustrated Americans do when their views are not prevailing?

Throughout the course of history people have demonstrated that the most effective change comes through non-violent action. Many of us believe that the most courageous leaders and activists are those who are willing to be attacked for their beliefs not those who threaten to attack.

Ms. Palin, if you are among those who believe that political change can come about non-violently, without hate, violence, or the threat of violence, now would be an excellent time to say so.

A Kim Bo said:
And that’s quite a source you got there. But thanks all the same for the deflections.

Kimmie, Malkin has complied a well sourced mountain of evidence. Are you going to dismiss it because it should be dismissed or because you don’t want to face it? If it’s because it should be dismissed you’re going to have to explain why that is and “Malkin sux!” is not that explanation.

“Palin’s bizarre use of language is sure to provoke further controversy. A blood libel refers to a notorious passage in St Matthew where Jews said of the crucifixion: “Let his blood be on our heads.” Later it referred to a medieval myth that Jews killed their children as part of a religious ritual. Giffords is Arizona’s first Jewish congresswoman.”

I think that most people see these hateful and despicable, leftist soulless trash of the human race for what they are.

Ya know, I’m attempting to rise above the various derangement syndromes and to express my rugged individualism (which is of course based upon my faith and values) and to stand up to those who hate America and who side with our enemies. I proudly stand with the majority of Americans who believe in God and the free market principles which have made this country so exceptional, those brave men and women who believe in limited government and lower taxes across the board, the type of fiscal responsibility that the intellectual elitists with their Marxist ideas would eliminate in favor of punishing the wealthy and destroying the economy and America, itself.

NONE of you step forward to condemn outright hateful bloodlust. Instead, you look to dismiss it. Why?

Because we differ from his worldview. It’s ok to shit on what you don’t agree with. Those people obviously speak for him or he would readily denounce their behavior instead of trying to paint you as reactionary for even broaching the topic.

Hey, question for you libs that are SO outraged that :Palin would speak. Are you equally outraged at DEMS using the tradegy for fundraising?

I’d say you have it down perfectly. I didn’t think it could be done without several thousand pounds of cheap make-up and a couple of dozen cans of Aqua Net.

The term “blood libel,” however, is a term so loaded with bigotry and historic persecution that it should be consigned to the ash heap of history where the darkest days of anti-Semitism dwell. Whether she was aware of its historical context is irrelevant. She is a national figure with a huge following and so she should use her words carefully.

It’s interesting to see all the effort put out by the hacks here at AbramsRevenge.com to steer this into the laps of conservatives yet not one ounce of reporting muscle has been expended to ferret out why the Pima Co. sherrif lied when telling reporters Loghgren had mulitiple run-ins with the police……only to back pedal from that statement later.

Dupnik may find himself in hot water when questions are asked as to why after his teacher called 911 about his behavior….nothing was done. Or when he was caught peeping into the windows of a house recently bought from a woman who had expressed concern over his behavior at school.

that couldn’t have ANYTHING to do with where his mom works huh? Couldn’t have anything with the fact that just one of these could have resulted in the psych eval that could have landed on the list precluding him from purchasing a firearm…..and OBVIOUSLY the sherrif of Pima Co. dropped the ball…..NUMEROUS times.

How about investigating and reporting on the reports that folks complaining about his odd behavior were told by sherrifs that he was being taken care of by mental health professionals (he wasn’t) and that filing a report and having him charged was a bad idea?

Noooooo, let’s make some assinine stretch trying to link political speech of folks you don’t care for to this.

No wonder you folks have reputations lower than snake piss.

Of course, Christ wasn’t talking about accepting libel without rebuttal. He was espousing nonviolence in the face of violence. Thank God we’ve got a good Catholic like The Real Rabid Kook to twist scripture to fit his demented purposes.

Keep reaching idiot. You guys keep beating this drum

The ass-whipping you will take in 2012 will make Nov of last year look like a day at the beach.

Leave it to Palin to make an already bad situation for her, much worse. The comparison of “blood libel” to her invented martyrdom of Conservatives, may just bury her after all. I haven’t even read any reaction to this yet, but she is either ignorant of the disgusting Anti Semitic history attached to the term “blood libel”, or the person who wrote this speech used it knowingly to try and do god knows what.

I guess now we are going to get to see groups like the ADL and the AIPAC lobby for what they really are, are they going to excuse this because Sarah is “good for Israel” or are they going to hold her to the same standard they hold others who use far less flamed rhetoric.

I can’t even believe she used “blood libel”, even for an idiot like Sarah Palin that is mindblowing. Is she trying to pick a fight with Jews? Or is she just stupid and doesn’t know what a loaded term that is?

I have never been a Palin fan and have often found her divisive and attacking. I don’t care if this was written by an assistant, ghost writer or Palin herself. But I like this.

President Obama and I may not agree on everything, but I know he would join me in affirming the health of our democratic process. Two years ago his party was victorious.

Welcome to Sarah Palin’s world view:

“Members of the Ahwatukee Tea Party group did not respond to e-mails seeking comment.

Miller said when he was a member of McCain’s campaign staff last year has been criticized by the more conservative party members who supported Republican opponent J.D. Hayworth. The first and only African-American to hold the party’s precinct chairmanship, Miller said he has been called “McCain’s boy,” and during the campaign saw a critic form his hand in the shape of a gun and point it at him.

“I wasn’t going to resign but decided to quit after what happened Saturday,” Miller said. “I love the Republican Party but I don’t want to take a bullet for anyone.”

Why was it ridiculous? Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel in New Jersey over a dispute that resulted from an election. Now you explain why the reference was ridiculous.

Pablo said:

What? Sarah’s writers lifted this term from a Beckerhead WSJ article op/ed. Beckerhead didn’t seem to know what it meant either. Blood libel refers to accusation that Jews kill Gentile children and use their blood to make matzos. The Nazis took the concept, expanded it a bit, and used it as the key underpinning for the Shoa. Basically, the murders of the Gentile children, literally and metaphorically, justified the murder of the Jews.

The LDS concept of blood atonement serves as the justification for the massacre of Gentiles, which to the LDS are mainstream Christians, first at Mountain Meadow, but more generally as well. The massacre of these Gentiles is used a justification of killing them for their own salvation.

Surely, you consider Nazis to be Anti-Semites. Where did you get your notion?

This does explain the revulsion of Palin (and Beckerhead) using this heavy term, does it not?

The Real Royal King said:
Blood libel refers to accusation that Jews kill Gentile children and use their blood to make matzos.

It also refers to the accusation that Jews killed Christ.

Basically, the murders of the Gentile children, literally and metaphorically, justified the murder of the Jews.

No, Hitler used the Jews as scapegoats for all of Germany’s troubles. Which we both already know.

Thank you for the information re: my identity, I was a little confused there…

I was making a point that Sarah Palin couldn’t buy milk without fucking up seriously and offending a large portion of America, and you guys would race to the computer to defend her regardless of what she says.

Which is very weird, considering she’s done almost nothing of substance. It’s like you and those who share your point of view have taken her as your savior and if she suffers the slightest public harm to her image it hurts you personally. Again, very weird. It’s not like she a national politician who fought valiantly for shared beliefs, she’s a TV personality who is very clearly getting rich off of stoking political fires. So what gives?

Mr Cox stated that he had deleted 10,000 – TEN THOUSAND – comments from him under 200+ different names. He usually took liberal personas (male. female and whatever he actually is) but he also had a few illiterate type right wingers.

His major characters ALWAYS harassed we three ladies there (Cecelia, Sharon and I) and frequently in the most degrading sexual and personal terms. Just a hint of his style are the terms “fag hags”, Nazi sluts and whores and Hag/Bag/gag.

Palin gave a great speech. It will be compared to Obama’s and it’ll be interesting to see the tone difference between the two.

That said, this whole thing where Palin is being yelled at for her use of blood libel, is silly. Must we parse every word? There are tons of words that Obama has mispronounced or misused (there is video of these instances). If Palin is to be attacked for her use of defending herself against people calling her an accessory to murder, then Obama should be scrutizined 10x harder.

Indeed, Jewish groups are taking offense to Palin’s choice of the term. Noting that accusations of blood libel have been “directly responsible for the murder of so many Jews across centuries,” the National Jewish Democratic Council condemned Palin’s use of the term:

Instead of dialing down the rhetoric at this difficult moment, Sarah Palin chose to accuse others trying to sort out the meaning of this tragedy of somehow engaging in a “blood libel” against her and others. This is of course a particularly heinous term for American Jews, given that the repeated fiction of blood libels are directly responsible for the murder of so many Jews across centuries — and given that blood libels are so directly intertwined with deeply ingrained anti-Semitism around the globe, even today. [...]

All we had asked following this weekend’s tragedy was for prayers for the dead and wounded, and for all of us to take a step back and look inward to see how we can improve the tenor of our coarsening public debate. Sarah Palin’s invocation of a “blood libel” charge against her perceived enemies is hardly a step in the right direction.

Also, Wiki has the following definition of blood libel:

It also refers to the press targeting an idiot.

Thus Palin used the phrase just fine.

And if anyone believes for a second that the callers to msnbc who claim to be outraged over the term “blood libel” are truly outraged, you’re smoking pot. It’s a glaring example of liberals who don’t give a damn about the shooting, but see it as a political opportunity, and so send their puppets marching orders. Go be “outraged” at Palin. (hey, doesn’t being outraged imply “rage”? Just sayin’)

She sure took her sweet time.

If you listen to Giffords’ family, this was not something new to them. They all clearly are aware of the hatred surrounding the Tea Party and how Palin put their family at risk.

Do you think Giffords’ father just decided to blame the Tea Party the day his daughter got shot? Do you think her brother in law just came up with the idea that violent political rhetoric from pundits was dangerous?

It shouldn’t have taken a tragedy of this scale for Palin to come out and denounce violence for political gain. And no, her canned speeches at rallies do not count.

This is from a Jewish liberal:

The term “blood libel” has taken on a broad metaphorical meaning in public discourse. Although its historical origins were in theologically based false accusations against the Jews and the Jewish People,its current usage is far broader. I myself have used it to describe false accusations against the State of Israel by the Goldstone Report. There is nothing improper and certainly nothing anti-Semitic in Sarah Palin using the term to characterize what she reasonably believes are false accusations that her words or images may have caused a mentally disturbed individual to kill and maim. The fact that two of the victims are Jewish is utterly irrelevant to the propriety of using this widely used term.

When your political Glass House is built almost entirely out of whopping great lies and eliminationist rhetoric that you just keep escalating with no end in sight, maybe you don’t want to be tossing around the term “blood libel”.

You know dude……I know it’s unseemly to critique spelling and grammar…..and I am quite possibly the worst speller and have engineers grammar…..but when your post is predicated on calling everyone ELSE a knob…….you might think about mastering capitalization and punctuaction.

At minimum, if you are going to state folks are too dumb to know the ANSWER, you should at least be able to spell it…….

i did not do that,you are making stuff up. i just wrote about the republican party,and thier rhetoric,it is not a rant .
learn how to read.

Prove it!

Now that Dershowitz, a big-time Liberal professor and Jewish, has chimed in, all the nonsensical “outrage” over blood libel is being shown for what it is: yet another baseless attempt to castigate and denigrate Sarah Palin.

Please grow up, people.

This whole sordid exercise dragging Sarah Palin into the actions of one maniac when it’s being proven over and over that the person got zero influence from her is so pathetic, and so shameful. It’s one of the more embarrassing episodes in political discourse I’ve ever witnessed. How do you people sleep who continue to propagate this total bullshit sleep?

Is this the same Dershowitz who is a big proponent of the use of torture? Sounds like Big Dick Cheney to me. I had no idea Cheney was liberal.

Dozens of Twitter users call for Palin’s death
A video on YouTube showcases dozens of tweets, sent in the aftermath of Saturday’s Arizona massacre, that call for the death of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
Some of the Tweeters wish Palin would die of cancer, while others advocate for her assassination.
“My hatred for Sarah Palin continues to grow. I think this woman should be assassinated,” said one person. “Sarah Palin should be shot for her encouragement of fanaticism against Democrats,” says another.

Okay, so you’ve revealed yourself as a kid who feels grown up when discussing politics with adults, and like every other kid who visits, upon realizing you’re relatively witless, you simply come up with weird crap as a provocation attempt. Time for your nap there, son.

Like Bill Ayers and Andrew McCrae? Sure, little bemangrow. You keep telling yourself that and it might come true!

It’s disgraceful making jokes from the tragedy. Have some decency. Am off for now, if there’s no reply from me am just off. Some of us have to work.

I’m not seeing the joke you’re referring too? I read it as it being too bad the shooter was allowed to go on his way, instead of being detained for running a red light. That happended, 2 hrs before he killed a lot of innocent people.

Stop copying and pasting the same phony crap on every thread. You are wasting valuable space.

Charlie Manson didn’t commit murder, his mindless drones did. Unlike Palin, Charlie’s in jail.

Running a red light is not normally a criminal offense, and therefore he could not have been detained beyond his signature unless the cop wanted to go with reckless driving or whatever the Arizona equivalent is. Simply running a red rarely goes that way.

An amazing response from a great leader. She will make a great president in 2013.

Her political career is over after that statement she made. I said it last night and I’ll say it again, she should have just shut up. Whatever she would say would make her look more ignorant than what she already is. And she proved me right. Poor little Sarah, she’s just the poor little victim. BS!

I can’t believe it. First people blame Palin for motivating the shooter into killing 6 people and critically injuring Giffords, now she makes a video defending herself and now people think she is making the situation about her? Really? It’s not like she came out of the blue and made it about her, the people with a political axe to grind made it about her, she has every right to defend herself and her actions.

This was a great statement from her, very impressed (I just wished she didn’t use the word blood libel since it seems to be everyone is talking about).

That’s right Sarah, we shouldn’t blame all those who share a political or religious affiliation for the crimes of an individual. This includes blaming ALL MUSLIMS for the actions of a few.

Without Iron-y reality would be all wrinkled.

Bill O’Reilly got THE BIGGEST ratings because of the Liberals blood libel against him.

So it appears the Liberals lynch party back fired.

Yes random TWITTER USERS should be held to same level of accountability as someone wanting to run for President. If TWITTER use is your standard for “responsible public discourse” I might as well vote for Ashton Kutcher, he, too, likes to use Twitter.

AGAIN, I thought REAL CONSERVATIVES were all about personal accountability. That’s why no one will ever accuse you or Palin of being a REAL conservative.

Latin2 said:

Even more proof that he, too, is BANKING on tragedy.

In fact, Glenn Beck spent today mentioning VAN JONES and GEORGE SOROS names more than he mentioned Gabrielle Giffords or, God forbid, any of the other victim’s names. Obviously VAN JONES is entirely responsible for this tragedy. Or, is it just yet another convenient means for Glenn Beck to target his favorite fear-mongering scapegoats in a bout to prove that he is in no way a fear-mongering tool.

Irony is never a fake conservatives strong point.

Maybe whoever wrote it for her should have had her read it aloud to them before she recorded and posted it online, so they could let her know pundits is not pronounced “pundents”

And she didn’t even say, “You betchya” or wink at as us once. Such restraint, very impressive indeed.

O’Reilly is NOT banking on this tragedy of politicizing this shooting can be laid right on the door steps of the Liberals and the Liberal Media.

It is just karma that after O’Reilly was falsely blamed by Olbermann, by name, and others that the American public stood by O’Reilly.

OH really, when did the whole American public stand by O’Reilly? Do you know that the United States has over 300 million people in it. On a good night O’Reilly has about 3 million viewers. So where is all this American public? You’re so full of shit it’s pathetic.

Latin2 said:

Please show proof of any Democrat using the term “blood libel” against O’Reilly. You have this constant thing about just pulling shit out of your ass and flinging it around. Then you think just because you said it people will believe it. Well, that no longer works.

Over 400 comments and I wonder if anyone has mentioned something very obvious. The comparisons between these two women, Sarah Palin and Gabrielle Giffords. One an exceptionally gifted politician who has a brilliant career and life ahead of her if she recovers from her grievous wounds and the other, Sarah Palin. As John McCain’s career winds down, one of the things he’ll forever be remembered for is inserting Sarah Palin into the American psyche. Poor John McCain who out of desperation elevated Ms Palin into a role she is totally unsuited for, and poor us for having to endure this superficial, and as we’re seeing dangerous person. Hopefully, she’ll soon have her fill of booty and be gone.

Favorite tweet of the day

Palin & crew are feeling unjustly blamed for the actions of an extremist. Maybe they can ask Muslims 4 advice on dealing w/that – @flipflops

Dammit!! I wanted to be # 400. Guess I’ll wait for 500

Now Obama’s speech was a unifying one. Note, it focussed MAINLY on the victims, not him, or the Democrats or anyone else.

I wasn’t firing anything anywhere. I honestly thought the writer was stating his thoughts about the shooter being stopped but unfortunately, was let go. I was in agreement with him. Hence my comment to you. I didn’t understand how you could think of his comment as a joke.
I did not see any further comment from the writer that his comment was meant as a joke. Excuse me for overlooking that.

Thanks. I’m aware its not a crime. It was wishful thinking on my part that with this guy, it was.

Sarah should tell Chrissy Matthews and all the other extreme left wing wackos over on PMSnbc to just shove it. The little sister of big brother nbc is so totally out of control that if anyone is going to cause some wacky goofball out there like that goofball nut in Arizona to do something crazy. The people who call the shots over on the HATE network, LSDnbc should tell their twerpy talking heads to cool it. Especially Chrissy, Edith and funky Keithy. Them 3 belong in an insane asylum.

There was no accountability in her address, just excuses and deflection.

Same on you Sarah Palin, Shame on you!

“Sarah Palin seems trapped in a world that is all about confrontation and bravado,” said Matthew Dowd former political adviser to President George W. Bush.

Mr. Dowd said. “When the country seeks comforting and consensus, she offers conflict and confrontation.”

Ms. Palin even went on to dismiss suggestions that political speech should be toned done.

Dang Dan Abrams, where (and why) did you get all these right of center writers for your Mediaite site.

When you hosted a show on MSNBC (which I seldom missed) you were always fair and balanced – even leaning slightly left and a big defender of Hillary Clinton and the sexism she endured.

What happened to you man?
