re:156

I don’t know how many times liberals have to say this, but just in case you guys don’t get it…

NO ONE IS BLAMING PALIN FOR THE SHOOTING OF GIFFORDS.

Paul Krugman, New York Times, MSNBC, Keith Olberman, Kos (who incredulously was quoted on this blog days ago), etc…

And just an FYI, what makes you think I am not a liberal? Wrong is wrong, and any attempt at tea party or Palin connection to this shooting is simply abhorrent. Granted Palin’s response only fuels the invective, but spend any amount of time volunteering with the mentally ill and you will kick yourself in your own ass for making that connection afterwards.

Charles’ reaction to her speech is ridiculous. Overboard, yes. “using a mass murder to advance her political ambitions,” What? How would you react if the entire national discourse centered around your blame for a mass murder you had nothing to do with?

Get over the irrational Palin hate and treat her for what she is, a marginal political figure. Ignore her and she goes away.
