This, today was the scariest saddest day. demagoguery has it's consequences.
Thank you for posting this in such depth, Phil. I hope the entire nation realizes that Palin, Angle, Beck, and Limbaugh have all engaged in violent rhetoric, and that words have consequences. I am an Arizonan, and a Democrat. I am very, very angry.
I wonder if she will be called out for scrubbing this stuff. Her stafff has forgotten Watergate - the cover-up is worse than the crime. Oh, if this could just be the thing that finishes off her political aspirations for good. I truly hope they find a connection between the suspects - yes they are searching for a second suspect that is known to them to be a 50 year old man - and Palin's programs.
Thank you ! As the Pima County Sheriff stated tonight, our freedom of speech has consequences. Violent, hateful language that fails to be chastised for being just that is unconscionable. Today is a sad day in America where a opportunity to greet a legislature and share thoughts and concerns becomes a deadly crime scene. My family's prayers are with the victims and their loved ones as my heart breaks for what our country seems to be becoming.
I sent an e-mail to The Discovery Channel asking them to please not air the all day Sarah Palin's Alaska extravaganza that they have planned. I said that there was just something about the woman that appeared to incite people to speak (and possibly act) in violent ways, that I've noticed it here in Alaska.............educated people, intelligent people, making violent and outrageous statements about local and national Democrats. It seemed to have started when she got on the national scene. The less television exposure of her, the better for the country. bt
Why is the mainstream media skirting this issue while reporting this story? Sarah Palin obviously realized immediately that the crosshair rhetoric would most probably be a problem and had the site scrubbed.
Because of her inciteful speech, real people are injured, dead, and hurting, but I doubt she scrubbed the site out of guilt or any sense of morality, and I'm doubtful any of the victim's families are consoled by her "keeping them in their prayers" crocodile tears.
Why does all the news networks
and newspapers (Wall Street
Journal, New York Times,etc.)
continue to promote $arah?
Write letters to editors and
boycott t.v. channels that
feature $arah Palin. Mystery,
shortly after the Palin family
purchase a home in Arizona, this
tragic event takes place. Hmm!
I don't trust $arah, Todd Palin,
Bristol Palin, or any of her
"crazy" Teabagger fans. Maybe
there is some connection to this
terrible crime.
They're putting a 9 year-old in the ground this week because of Sarah Palin.
FU half term quitter Sarah Palin! Get off your violent rhetoric saw horse! Your reload map was and is a disgusting piece of violent trash.
A 9 year old Sarah! A 9 year old. Do you get that? A kid.
Sarah you dish out violent rhetoric. Pure and simple.
And she's proud of it. So is her family.
Just nasty. A nasty, nasty person is proud of thier violent rhetoric.
a 9 year old has lost thier life... Think about that and half term stooopid's violent rhetoric. And to be proud of it. Gawd
Thanks for the treasure trail. I hope you're right, that the coverup will be enough to shut her down.
it's still on sarah's FB page

RAM tweeted this 7 hours ago, essentially acknowledging that the SPAC site was taken down:

@RAMansour Rebecca A. Mansour
We never removed this Facebook post: http://is.gd/kokfD The "Take Back the 20" website is no longer relevant now that the election is over.
"The "Take Back the 20" website is no longer relevant now that the election is over."
Yet all my screen shots are from Saturday morning.
Rebecca has become as intensely dishonest as anyone has to be to remain close to Palin until Sarah destroys the person.
Palingates is saying that the graphic is still up on her Facebook page (maybe the bots don't know how to take that down?)
Its still up on facebook and RaManSour chief pantysniffer4palin has a interview w/another panty sniffer4palin and they decided that the crosshairs were just normal crosshairs that anyone draws on a map???
Really? Here is the link and of course the whining etc.

Bottom line:
A good congresswoman doing her job is fighting for her life b/c of paylin.
2 days ago she introduced a bill for legislature(house) to take a cut in their salaries.
A 9 yr old girl who went TO SCHOOL and was recently elected Social studies leader or something she got killed b/c she was in paylins crosshairs!
Think about it. Could of been Piper? (well Piper doesn't go to school, but she could of been at a supermarket w/sis bristol?)
A judge is dead.
A man (Gabby's aide) is dead...30 yrs old and about to be married.
A Pastor, to save his wife he took the head shot, his wife has 4 bullets but alive.
2 others I believe were also injured.
Enough is Enough! We will not let them get away with this!
Dems and everyone must take a hard line on this.
Palin can not get away with her hate speech! It's unbelievable the #LSM has let her get this far but that's why they are the Lame stream Media?
Cons are trying to spin this every which way...
to be fair screech didn't physically pull the trigger...but she might as well of...like Charles Manson who had brainwashed bots at his service.
The fact that the house canceled all activities next week speaks volumes. Even Boner (OrangeJulius) was shocked as Jan "DeathPanels" Brewer.
Sarah has shown no compassion or even remorse. She is a true psychopath.
All we hear from her is lameass excuses from her brown-nosed mouthpieces.
Her and her ilk must be stopped. Keith Olbermann did a awesome special comment on it.

Pray or meditate for the ones who lost their lives & the ones fighting for their lives.
Thank you for this information. Clearly, Quitter Palin has realized that she may be the prime suspect in this act of violence against innocent people or her website would not have gone down and been scrubbed. This is a true sign of "culpability" - as in Watergate, the cover-up attempt will stand now as her self-indictment of her capricious and self-aggrandizing attempts to incite violence in this democracy.
Sarah Palin is responsible for these deaths and it's high time americans realize that this woman is one of the most angry, violent people on the planet.
Perhaps now she will realize that any future politican ambitions she may have now are totally squelched.
She and her ill-gotten gains from her opportunism along with her guilty conscience will be her new claim to fame.
I surely hope that Sarah Palin can now live with the fact that her irresponsibility has results in the death of innocent people - among them a 9 year old child.
Why her continued incitement to violence and violent coded rhetoric from the stump in Florida (Ft. Myers) was not immediately stopped is beyond my comprehension.
Did they not realize that the tacit approval of this kind of violent rhetoric would ultimately result in loss of life?
Perhaps now we can take a realistic look back at precisely how this one angry, capricious, uneducated, uninformed misfit has damaged our society???
Today is the day in which Sarah Palin will be totally "refudiated" by the american people - finally there is no way out for this coward and she will have to face the consequences of her actions.
As they say, the "gig" is now up and her 15 minutes of fame (now infamy) are up!
We need to ask Bill O'Reilly this one poignant question:
Now WHO is the "Baby Killer"?????
This is all part of the "2nd Amendment Remedy" that was vomited forth into our political discourse. We need to educate people that we are able to sometimes agree to disagree. The rhetoric must be toned down. We are becomming excatly what we are fighting against in Afghanistan. We are losing our Freedoms and the passionate Hate mongering is driving us to lose that which makes our Nation Great. People killing people over Political Issues? What are we becoming?
