As always, the attempted murder of an adult woman is less important than OMG ABORTIONS.

Also, what does Obama have to do with driving cars into a ditch…?
Thank you, Sarah Palin.
Everyone’s saying “I don’t think Sarah Palin was behind this”. If you mean she didn’t pull the trigger, of course. However, she, Sharron Angle, and Michele Bachmann, all used incredibly violent rhetoric, and violent rhetoric produces violence. It’s the exact same situation of abortion clinic violence. Loud, powerful voices talk about how doctors are “murdering” babies, and they use violent rhetoric against them. Then, some follower goes and “takes care of it” for them. Afterwards, the powerful people call it a “senseless act”, and separate themselves from it completely, pretending it had nothing to do with them. They didn’t pull the trigger, and they didn’t place the bomb. Their words and imagery, though, were powerful enough that someone else took it seriously. You can’t deny that there was violent rhetoric specifically aimed, several times, at Rep. Gifford, so much so that she talked about the threats towards her (threats from followers who were encouraged by the rhetoric). The rightwing mocked when those who were threatened talked about the threats against them.

The power of words are far more dangerous than weapons. Rhetoric has moved masses for thousands of years, even from the time of Aristotle. But when words are used by ignorant minds, they become detrimental to those masses.

“What do crosshairs mean to you?
To me, they mean shoot. Shoot here.
There were crosshairs on your website, Sarah Palin. Where was one of these crosshairs located? Directly at Gabrielle Giffords. Directly at her head.
Shoot here, at Gabrielle Giffords. “
I commented this on Sarah Palin’s…

Sarah Palin responding to her daughter Willow using the word “faggot” amongst other derogatory slurs on Facebook
Gee, Sarah, thanks for sticking up for the gays… and no one said anything about your son.

except that willow was responding to people not liking her mother’s habit of pimping out her children on television for a profit that is unimaginable and undeserved. i haven’t ever heard anyone say anything ‘mean’ about trig, except that his name is ridiculous. which it is. sarah palin often tried to rewrite history, and we need to remember that she called for rahm’s resignation for using the word ‘retarded.’ and we all definitely know if one of the obama daughters had said ‘faggot’ on a public forum, she would have spoken out against the obamas’ parenting. so…fuck you, sarah palin.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all if these people were to campaign to give Sarah the position of Jesus in the next election. They have so much in common, after all.

Look, sure, yeah, of course, of course, we should be able to fucking ignore Sarah Palin and her molesting P.E. teacher-looking husband (“I’m puttin’ my hand on the floor under your chest to make sure you do your push-ups right, Cindy”) and her Hills-Have-Eyes-esque brood of mutant children. But she ain’t a Jurassic Park T-Rex. If you stand still, she ain’t going away. And if she’s gonna hate fuck the “lamestream” media constantly, we may as well get off on it, too.
We all know what’s gonna happen: she’s gonna believe the Wal-Mart shoppers and shut-ins and horny rednecks who tell her at her book signings to run for President. And she’ll run and be an idiot on the issues and a cunt to everyone around her, and then she’ll blame everyone else for ruining her chances when, in reality, in a rare moment of clarity, Republicans will vote for the another bugfuck insane candidate, the one who didn’t say on her own reality show that she got millions of dollars to do that she thinks it sucks that people invade her privacy and that she’s just regular people, like you and you over there, who must have a TV studio in your home so you can tell Sean Hannity what regular people think.
There’s something almost laughably darling about Sarah Palin, Class Warrior. When Barbara Bush, the O.G. of political women bitch slappers, said of Palin, “I hope she’ll stay” in Alaska, well, that dream’s long gone, and, of course, Palin wasn’t gonna take it. Like someone telling the head cheerleader that she might not be prom queen, Palin smacked back, “I don’t think the majority of Americans want to put up with the blue-bloods.”
Think about that for just a second. Ask yourself what happens when any Democrat you can think of says something like it, about how the nation is most Americans versus old money. Oh, how the right wing media would explode with accusations of class war and socialism and MarxAlinskyAyers and other people with scary-sounding names that virtually no one who mentions them knows a goddamn thing about. But Palin? When she says it, it’s just Sarah bein’ Sarah, God love her First Dude-fellating mouth.
It is Sarah Palin with long luxurious Blonde hair! Wow! Doesn’t she Look great! So Beautiful!
Well that’s My girl, Palincorn!! Ha Ha!
