    .........the republicans "taking back" congress has emboldened "real americans" to "take back" "their" country. Seems like the POS beck, palin, et. al., are getting their wish. First MD, now AZ. Wonder what's next?

    Intelligent logic here....:sad:

    What's next you ask.....? Hopefully the impeachment of Barry, but there is a better chance I will win the next Powerball Loto.

    Gotta link?

    I've been out of touch. But, if you're talking about the AZ congresswoman's shooting (among others)......please tell me what Beck and Palin have to do with that.

    If you "go there".....can we talk about Ruby Ridge and Waco?

    What a horrible thing to say. It appears by his facebook and youtube postings that the shooter was as liberal as they come. Maybe we should be blaming CNBC? Makes absolutely no sense that you could reach for such a far fetched conclusion.

    My prayers go out to all involved in this horrific tragedy and would hope that this type of nonsens babble is ignored.

    Dang...

    I forgot Timothy McVeigh. Did the conservatives "make" him, too? Who "made" squeaky Fromme?

    Manson?

    Why can't somebody just be nucking futs in their own right?

    Remember palin's "target map" with crosshairs on on different members of congress that were "targeted" for defeat in the last election? Congresswoman Giffords was on there, behind the crosshairs. Of course, I probably am full of **** but, hey, maybe more folks should listen to R. Lee Ermey and not me.

    So, you want to compare Palins map of electional defeat to a 22 year old wacko pulling the trigger? Sift through your emotions and get a grip here.

    We can talk about whatever you want. Last I checked anyone can start a thread on any subject.

    So Bruce....do you REALLY think Palin was asking her "people" to assasinate Giffords? Or, do you maybe think crosshairs is a clever visual for "targeting" seats the republicans needed to take in the mid-terms? Or, are you saying the visual cue was maybe ill-advised?

    I'm trying to determine how deep your accusations are.

    I am saying that all of the inflammatory rhetoric that we hear nowadays, from both sides of the aisle, is bound to be misinterpreted and misconstrued by the lunatic fringe. This is the results. We really need to turn the heat way down on the inflammatory rhetoric but, that doesn't sell. So, it will keep ramping up until these types of tragedys happen more often.

    Thanks for not being a "real american" ;) .

    I'm sorry, bro....I can't get behind this one.

    I detest whomever did this. There can be no sane rationale. I don't know why we just can't let the shooter's psychosis stand alone as why he did what he did. Why go trying to borrow more sorrow?

    I don't think anything the gov't did warrants TImothy McVeigh's actions. He was simply deranged.

    You may be right, I may be wrong that's the beauty of opinions. For the record I would be more happy if you are right.

    Why drag politics into this? Time and place for everything, but this is outta line IMO.
