I was going to leave the shooting in Arizona alone. But, no. With Sarah Palin calling, “Blood Libel” I can’t. No thinking liberal SHOULD leave it alone. I am tired of the Rights assault on reason and willingness to ignore facts that don’t fit its narrative. I’m tired of Sarah Palin getting a free pass with her idiocy. I’m tired of people who knowingly accept what Sarah and the Right tell them. I can’t do much, but I will add my voice to the debate.
First off, it’s not Sarah’s fault that some nut job killed people and injured others. But a person with what one would call a soul, would at least feel bad or feel even a measure of guilt about putting cross-hairs on her district and making her a “target”. Heck, when my grandparents died, their children each felt they could have done more. They felt responsible, even though they couldn’t have done anything. When a person in a fit of pique says, “I wish you were dead!” and then something bad happens to that person, the person who wished death FEELS BAD. Heck if a sane person says they “hate” someone and that someone gets hurt, well, only an asshole doesn’t feel SOMETHING.
