Posted on January 8, 2011 at 9:20pmMy God, Obama was so detached, non-emotional, with a flat affect in his reading of the teleprompter. He truly doesn’t give a s***t!

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 7:19pmDid Palin have her targeted on a map with a rifle scope target? Classy half term reality star wantabe.

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 7:47pm“Targeted” has many more meanings than “I want to shoot that person,” idjit. Now that it’s evident the shooter was a left-winger, will you continue to blame Sarah Palin?

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 7:08pmSeems so eager to help and send the feds when it comes to someone in Govt and especially one of his own party .Where was this lazy jack ass of a president when it came to civilians being kidnapped and killed.Killed because this worthless SOB of a president will not protect the people of arizona and close the border. Then when Gov Brewer tries to protect her constiuents this A Hole sicks his crap eating dog att general holder on Arizona and sues the the state.Stopping arizona from protecting itself.When you took the oath (the same oath you screwed up muslim boy) for president of the US ,there was a clause in it that said something about protecting the citizens of the US. Please forgive me if i sound brash and uncaring concerning the rep being shot, but when comes to people of the US he could care less. He Doesn‘t listen to the American People and doesn’t give a damn about our well being. .

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 6:34pmI feel sorry for the family and friends of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, the press screwed up big time and stated she was dead. Even the Blaze had it wrong for a few moments.Last I hears she is alive, out of surgery and responsive. The sergeon is optimistic. Very good news. All the victims are in my prayers.

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 6:33pmIt looks like this poor woman was a moderate.and in the eyes of the posters here that is the worst sin of all.You find fault with anything.How sad and pitiful you are.When she voted for the health care law she was threatened and had her door shot out.All because she thinks it was a good idea to help out the uninsured and to bring the cost down on health care.She stated that the insurance companys were over charging and not doing a good enough job and had too much power. Is that so evil? The HATE on the blaze is unreal and I fear for more of our elected officials because of some of the one sided beliefs that are stated here.

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 10:45pmGifford is a very well liked Rep here in AZ…doesn’t matter if you are D or R or I…just about everyone who ever speaks w/her likes her…I’ve met her and thought she was great…however, she switched from being an R to a D…doesn’t make her an enemy (unlike the way the Left feels about Conservatives)…just makes her much more liberal than this Republic stands for…I only wish her compassion was stronger toward preserving the Republic instead of “enabling” those who need a hand up and not a hand out! She was also against 1070…again…doesn’t make her our enemy…AND…if socialized medicine (again supported by her) is not repealed, the life saving care she has received will not be available to any of us…

Report Post »be1776
Posted on January 8, 2011 at 7:18pmShe has been around for awhile and has fans and detractors on both sides. She is the rep from the same area as the rancher who was shot on his ranch supposedly by an illegal immigrant, we will probably never know. After this incident, she held several “town meetings” and was very adamant about getting to the bottom of the boarder issues. Some of these meetings were canceled due to threats. I think the judge was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 6:28pmThose “favorite books” sound almost “stock”. Like an American Library Association list of favorite books, or banned books. Actually they seem to span the political spectrum.

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 6:42pm@walkwithme1966…Now is not the time to pick on members at this site! For your information, Fox’s own “Schlep” Smith is the one who first mentioned a member of the armed forces (as the shooter) and also that the Tea Parties had stirred up hatred in Tucson during the health care debates…So please, don’t use this opportunity to attack people of good intentions who are simply expressing their emotions to what is OBVIOUSLY an emotional tragedy! This brings a lot to the table that needs to be discussed…yep…that’s what we do here…EXPRESS OUR MINDS!

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 5:54pmI watched this live on TV. The first person to send a statement of love & condolences was the new Speaker of the house. I don’t know why I felt it necessary to point this out. I have to examine my conscience. God Bless the Families & friends of those injured or killed.

Posted on January 8, 2011 at 6:17pmWhat a sad and tragic day for America. But to have the President come out and give his little condolences speech using a teleprompter rather than speak from the heart really shows what little character this clown has. I‘m shocked he didn’t tell the nation how stupidly the Pima County sheriff’s Office and Tucson Police acted.
Report Post »AzDebi
Posted on January 8, 2011 at 6:21pmI reported here on another article that a good friend of Gifford (a Senator) was speaking with “Schlep” (that’s my name for him) on Fox…they were trying VERY HARD to pin this on a “returning Afghan soldier” and also stated that the Tea Party were “stirring” up hatred with their hate-filled signs during the health care debate last year…they will take this as far as they can and only justify further erosion of our rights…I don’t mean this to be inappropriate because I do pray for all those injured and killed in this senseless act, however, I find it very troubling that John Wheeler was found in a dumpster on New Years eve and hardly a word has been spoken on the news media, including FOX…(if you are unfamiliar with Mr. Wheeler, do a google search on him…don’t get him confused with the scientist…) He was a tremendous American who had given to this country his entire life…Anyone have a good explanation for why we have barely heard about this…I’d sure love to hear it? You can bet we’ll hear about this day in and day out for months…

I must take my political shot at him now. Folks this shooting and her survival is a perfect example as to why our healthcare system should not be touched!
Send this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTe9aQuel58 to your representatives and demand the Obamacare be repealed. We know as of now some ppl can survive gunshot woulds to the head…. point blank gunshots to the head! THIS, THIS is why our healthcare system cannot be messed with. Getting a through and through shot in the head and she is responsive AFTER surgery!
We dont know, not worth the risk, if someone will surive the same shot under Obamacare!
