Careful - BDN isn't calibrated to get subtlety.

Favorite book of Jared Lee Loughner: THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO

Giffords was more Republican than Democrat, so Democrates HATED her and wanted her DEAD. Republican judge was killed on the spot. Giffords even read THE CONSTITUTION with the Tea Party and Republicans.

Demorat Commie Daily Kos: "Gabby Giffords is DEAD to me for voting against Nancy Pelosi!"


Giffords only voted with the Democratic Party about 40 percent of the time, and did not vote for Nancy Pelosi for speaker of the house.

I'm really sorry you cannot comprehend the subtleties. It must suck to be you.


Yeah, I'm tripped up by context yet again.
How you can try to argue that someone with your long history of anti-Palin / anti-Tea Party rhetoric had no ulterior motive for your post is beyond me.

Ah. So you admit that you're basing your entire response on what you THINK my "motives" MIGHT BE?

So, given your history and context, you just claimed that Loughner is a liberal, right? I mean, you MUST have an ulterior motive, given your past history!

The RWERz around here are trying very hard to distance themselves from this nut-job Loughner, who to all intents and purposes seems to be even farther down the road towards paranoid schizophrenia than PN, if that were possible.

But there are two places where they're bonded by Crazy Glue. One is the RWz CONSTANT call to violence. Calling for violence is a dangerous thing, because sometimes it blows up in your face, yanno? Some people actually take it seriously. And then the RWerz tiptoe away, trying to disavow any sort of connection between themselves and their nuttier brethren's actions, altho they have been inciting it for years.

The other is a complete disdain for real-world facts, complete inability to compare two ideas or reach logical conclusions, a masquerading of emotion and fervor as thought. That is just plain crazy-thought. If you refuse to test your thoughts against some sort of yardstick, like (say) reality, there is nothing to keep you from walking down the crazy-road, along with PN and Loughner.

Again, Rappy, you are inferring things and motives that I have not implied. All the partisanship, "geeking out" about some wannabe-war, and "phonied up" controversy is in YOUR mind, not mine. I made note of the FACT that Palin had this woman on her target list. I made no connection, but asked if there might be a connection. You're the one jumping to conclusions here, assigning motives and agenda where none have been made clear.

I also asked if the guy might be Muslim. Oddly, you aren't screaming about THAT. Go figure..



By interjecting Palin's face book page image, you made a DIRECT connection. To deny that is to deny reality.

So is putting words in someone's mouth. A pet peeve of yours if I'm not mistaken.

I just hope I never see you take Wulf (or any other poster) to task for his (or her) percieved intolerance. Sorry if the subtlety was lost on you.

Oh, I say ONE thing and suddenly it compares to Wulf's rabid and constant ranting? I just hope you never take anyone to task for a double standard!

DC Snipers - Not the Tea Party

Guy who flew his plane into the IRS building- Not the Tea Party

Guy who held the Discovery Center Hostage- Not the Tea Party

....hmmm Im starting to see a pattern here....

This guy... hmm...


I wonder what you all will have to say if he was part of the United Socialist Union, or some devout far-left liberal?

You mean like assigning someone "ulterior motives"? Is that really any different than putting words in their mouth? You've spent the better part of the morning trying to tell me what I said and what I meant by what I said, without ever actually responding to what I said. Rappy suffers the same malady. Is he your sockpuppet, or are you his?

Only if you promise not to go around assigning opinions to other people, m'kay?
