http://www.breitbart.tv/obama-to-latinos-punish-our-enemies/
Heres the president talking about punishing our enemies. I seem to remember him saying something also about if they get in your face to push them back. Who is really inciting the violence here.

Jan. 9, 2011 at 1:07pmI saw a map of the states Sarah Palin had targets on that Republican’s should target for the next election. Then underneath it was a Democrat map with targets on it from 2008 where they were targeting states they needed for 2010. It might have been at Red State, but I’m not sure. Nowhere on it is Giffords mentioned by name. Just like the left to blow something way outta context!!!

Jan. 9, 2011 at 1:15pmThis shooting is directly related to the political environment created by the extreme right who welcome as heroes those who shouted “Liar” at the President of the United States as he addressed Congress.
Violence, incivility and hooliganism are the hallmarks of the new Republican Tea Party.

Jan. 9, 2011 at 1:42pm@WHITE.. Liar at the president, huh ? Well, for your information it comes to find out that the president DID lie right then and there, infront of the whole world ,right there on tape, for all to see.. Besides I didn’t realize calling someone a liar incites violence.. Course in your world, probably, but in ours it’s just someone calling a liar a liar.. PLEASE, PLEASE provide a link to the tea party being violent against ANYONE, PLEASE ….I’ll wait, and if your going to bring up the non spitting/racialslurs incident at the healthcare passage and moronic walk across the street ..Save yourself the time, there is no proof there either…I’m waiting..

Jan. 9, 2011 at 1:25pmI agree that the left has a part to play in this episode. Beck has repeatedly said “NO VIOLENCE” and said that if the people don’t riot, the radicals will create a situation to promote it. The shooter was mentally unstable if his facebook is any indication. Did someone make an effort to trigger him into action? The left will do anything to abridge freedom of speach and attempt to shut down opposition from the conservatives.

Jan. 9, 2011 at 12:45pmI knew when I opened this, and I saw Dick Turban and the CNN logo, that I would be treated to some inane rhetoric. Senator Alexander is correct. The kook in question is far from conservative. The congresswoman is pro 2nd amendment, and anti-illegal immigration. She voted against Pelosi to be their minority leader. How’s that for a conspiracy? Pelosi hired the gunman. Sound kind of ridiculous, doesn’t it? And I wonder who’s rhetoric inflamed William Ayers back in the 60s and 70s.

Besides the daily kos only has the cross hairs on Gifford in an attempt to defeat her at the polls, Not calling for violence… Obviously i was being facetious but that’s probably the way he thinks.

Jan. 9, 2011 at 1:04pmThe hateful left has tons of blood on their hands. I’ve often worn this message on a T-shirt in public places to underscore that, and will wear it again to underscore that. http://tinyurl.com/2esejms
Of the 15 leading causes of death in America, according to the CDC, men lead in 12 categories, are tied in two, and women lead in only one. Yet, there’s an Office of Women’s Health at the federal, state and local county levels in my areas of representation. And Obama is planning on spending vastly disproportionate amounts more on women’s health, over men’s, under Obamacare. Men are currently 97+ percent of military deaths and casualties and historically they are 99.99%. Men are approximately 94% of industrial deaths and accidents, 76 percent of homicides, and 80 percent of suicides, yet we have Commissions on the Status of Women, and Offices of Violence Against Women, without anything corresponding to men. Women are the majority of the electorate and have more influence in the electoral process than men. We see that the Democrat party is all about women’s rights to the exclusion of men’s rights, adding to the pain, suffering and death of men. Democrats routinely ignore the Constitution, especially the 14th amendment in this regard.
The Democrat party is a massive hate movement, actively working to divide Americans by: race, class and gender. Untold numbers of American’s suffer as a result of their hateful and ultimately violent agenda.

It would b nice if you and your Left leaning friends would just grow up a bit and accept that people can be responsible for their own actions. Your argument cannot hold up in a Court of Law and it doesn’t hold water here either.

The “Tea Party” isn’t “anti-government”. We’re for limited government that upholds the interests of the people and abides by the constitution. We’re virulently against an out-of-control government that legislates entitlements at every turn with the effect of bankrupting the nation under the guise of “our safety”.

It’s not going to work for you. Your right wing network, Fox is reporting that the shooter was anti-governemnt ( Tea Party ), he was anti-imigration ( Tea Party), anti-jewish ( KKK) and a lunatic.
Hmmmm who does this sound like?

anit government- try Bill Ayers and Bernadette Dorn (especially Dorn who eventhough her buddy is in the Whitehouse- she’s STILL spewing anti government crud)
Anti Illegal- about half the country there, and not all tea partiers either.
Anti Jewish (KKK?!!) the KKK is a documented Democratic organization- look it up.
The only part you got right was that he’s a lunatic.
A couple of other facts you missed, 2 of his favorite books (I’ll admit some of the rest are favorites of a lot of people) but Mein Kamph and the Commie Manifesto are definitely NOT choice reading material of any Conservative. He burned the flag- only ones who seem to enjoy that past time are either middle eastern islamists or American lefties.

The use of the crosshairs is not exclusive to Sarah Palin or the Republican party.
Does it occur to your addled mind that maybe the crosshairs were removed out of respect for Ms Giffords and the other victims? No it wouldnt.

What an idiot.
The right, The Tea Party and Sarah (crosshairs) Palin don’t want this brought up.
Guess what it’s not going away.
Could you imagine if someone on the left had posted crosshairs on a Republican congressman and then that congressman had been shot? The outrage from the right that would be going on right now.
Funny how SaraPac took down that crosshairs map from their website as soon as this happened yesterday. Sorry Sarah, little too late. We live in the internet era and nothing is erased.

Jan. 9, 2011 at 1:29pmThe progressives cannot even let a moment of grieving take place without trying first to politicize and second to capitalize to find another reason to compromise our rights. As soon as I heard the news I told my wife that there will be an immediate push to strengthen “The Fairness Doctrine” and gun control.
If anyone speaks against the progressive agenda, then it is malicious and incendiary. If anyone exposes a self-proclaimed communist in the Administration it is hateful.
First, there are crazies in the world. Plain and simple.
An alternative solution to stop the heated debate that is being blamed for this violence, would be to ban all “Progressives” and “Socialists” from government. That makes as much sense as censoring the internet and “Talk Radio”.

Did you notice that he did not even come anywhere close to answering the question? He was asked a general question about the rhetoric: “was it over the line.” A simple question, right? Yes or no.
And yet all of you love the fact that this politician could not answer a simple question. And by the way, where is Palin? She should be answering the question. I’m already getting tired of hearing from her aids that the crosshairs were not actually crosshairs. They were surveyor’s symbols! Ha!

When someone like Crowley makes an outrageous accusation on national TV that a Marxist, who loves reading “The Communist Manifesto,” is somehow a follower of Sarah Palin, she should be arrested for a hate crime. At the very least, I hope our new Republican controlled Congress will start hauling hate mongers on MSNBC and CNN into hearings to show how their continued on-air lies provoke these attacks by unstable Liberals.

Jan. 9, 2011 at 2:44pmSo, what have we learned from the left?
Well,
1) constant bombardment of the culture with profanity and gratuitous sex on TV, the movies and in magazines don’t affect the public at all, as everyone is responsible for their own attitudes and beliefs.
2) A million and a half abortions every year don’t have any affect on devaluing of life in the country.
3) Daily gushers of hate from the left directed at the tea party and conservatives in general for the past 20 years have had no affect on the public discourse, nor have the movies made about Bush getting assassinated, comments wishing Cheney and Jesse Helms dead, etc.
3) but talk radio, tea partiers and conservative politicians make a crazed individual with leftist ideology attack a Democrat and kill people.
Somewhere there may be some logic in leftist thinking, but I’ll be d@mned if I can find it.

I bet you don’t say the same thing about the Daily KOS who on June 25, 2008 had a list of all Representatives on their website. They highlighted several names, including “Gabby”. In the text of the article, they wrote: “narrow the target list” . . . and . . . “certainly puts a bulls eye on their district.” I guess the left wing nut Jared likely read the Daily KOS who said to target those who “were not left enough” and acted on it.
