Palins actions and rhetorics was promoting violence. I have been waiting for a crackdown on the violent rhetoric some republicans and tea-party politicians use for a long time. It is simply unacceptable to inflame the population in that way. People were bound to get hurt. The smart thing would be to tone down violence, in any form, because violence breeds violence. If you promote violence, there will be consequences. It might be that you are not held liable, but if you are a normal person you will have it on your consciousness.

I think it's obvious how dumb she is when everytime she speaks, and she speaks publicly ALOT, she needs a script and teleprompter and speaks really slow so as to keep up. She obviously cannot think or act without these speaking aids.
You make it sound as if someone does not agree with Palin or see's her for the half wit she is they are liberal hater's,nothing could be further from the truth.Ya the lib's are attacking her at a weak moment but some of us just see her for what she is,a limelight loveing chick that run's her mouth before she think's about.

Enough with the Drama...
You make it sound like she shouldn't be saying something. She should. She had nothging to do with it. She should have been saying something sooner.
Why don't you and the rest of the haters start to actually blame the person that did the crime. The shooter.
Your side has blamed everybody except him.
I thought Palin was dumb as a box of rocks but yet again, you take the position that she has either masterminded some grand plan or has the power over people to make them do evil things.
I think your time would be better spent focusing on the real problem and stop attempting to make one up because you don't like them.

I have been thinking about Sarah Palin today because of this thread. I put in an earlier post that I still believe.
However, seeing the volatile nature of the Sarah Palin event, it struck me that this will not have a happy ending for her. At best, I hope she becomes an obscure old chestnut that will be yanked out into the public eye in a "whatever happened to, where are they now?" scenario. That would be good.
She was attached to the Tea Party to undermine it and steer it into a more GOP direction. She didn't go rogue she was painted rogue to debase a grass roots organization that was scaring the control freaks. She is an expendable resource, a half step away from the "worthless eaters" she titillates.

The forces that are feeding this Sarah Palin show would be doing anyone a disservice. Feeding the ego of weak person is an emotionally crippling gesture. In contemplation, Sarah Palin reminds me of a femmed-up remake of Andy Griffith's "Lonesome" Rhodes character from, "A Face in the Crowd".
Sarah, I wish you and your family peace and obscurity.edit on 13-1-2011 by RighteousDude because: typoedit on 13-1-2011 by RighteousDude because: typos

Is the video gone? I just sat down to watch the whole thing. Doesn't her camp do this a lot? remove all traces?
Nevermind the blood libel mistake (she's a parrot who reads other people's words, so you can't really blame her for that much, the tone was deplorable, what parts I've seen on TV anyway. She was very angry. Maybe understandable, but sheesh. Take a beta blocker. Lecturing and lambasting. Doing in this speech what she's bitching about other people doing? Me me me, anyone? And today of all days. Geez. I'm trying to get her and give her the benefit of the doubt...but...nah.
