Republicans, Guns, Fear Mongering, Gun Target Rhetoric, The Gullible. Now Put Them All Together.

One Crazed Gunman...many shot, many wounded...many Dead...
Sarah Palin's Camp is Frantically Back-peddling...The Huff reports... Shortly after news broke that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) had been shot at a congressional event in her district, observers began noting that she had, during the campaign,literally been Sarah Palin's target...to which they reply for those who are really gullible...
"We never ever, ever intended it to be gun sights," she said in an interview with talk radio host Tammy Bruce Saturday. "It was simply crosshairs like you'd see on maps." Bruce suggested that they could, in fact, be seen as "surveyor's symbols." Mansour added that "it never occurred to us that anybody would consider it violent" and called any attempts to politicize the Arizona tragedy "repulsive."


Yeah right..."Surveyor's Symbols"....What the Fuck, they are no "Surveyors"....
They say..." It never occurred to us"...who is stupid enough to believe that? That is the only intelligent reason for using that Tactic...
Who can forget Sarah's famous "Commonsense Conservatives & lovers of America: 'Don't Retreat, Instead - RELOAD!' ??


Others who are more cautious in their opinions than I, Howard Fineman in this instance writes...Now comes Tucson. The deaths there are not about politics, ideology or party. From what we know, Jared Loughman's acts were those of a madman divorced from reality, let alone from public debate.


Many who have since commented have come under attacks including Sheriff Clarence Dupnik who said this..."When you look at unbalanced people, how they respond to the vitriol that comes out of certain mouths about tearing down the government," said Dupnik at a press conference Saturday. "The anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on in this country is getting to be outrageous. And unfortunately, Arizona I think has become sort of the capital. We have become the mecca for prejudice and bigotry."


These "attacks" and criticisms come from the usual suspects... one even calling for his resignation. Apparently it's business as usual for this group of Haters...but then, we have not seen them do much in the past, to dispel any suspicions of fear-mongering by them...in fact quite the contrary.


I do not expect many surprises from here on out...but time will tell.
My sincerest sympathies to the victims and their families, I am truly sorry that this has happened, but please take Heart, this Universe has many Good things in store for us in this life...and the next...so be strong and you will endure. We did not come to this World with anything...neither will we leave with anything...anything Material that is...Read my Book, you will understand.

Obama Palin Limbaugh Bush Family Picnic?

Ancestry.com does it again. They hit the political map in my opinion in 2007, when they revealed that Reverand Al Sharpton may be related to the late Segregationist Senator Strom Thurmond. I think they have truly broken the mold this time, with news that President  Barack Obama and Sarah Palin are cousins! They are 10th cousins through an ancestor by the name...John Smith.

The Huffington Post reports The President has also been pegged as being a 10th cousin once removed to the guy who has made no bones about wanting the President to fail in his attempt to put America on the path to recovery...Rush Limbaugh! They are related through a mutual ancestor, Richmond Terrell. President George W. Bush is also now revealed to be connected to Sarah Palin and President Obama, being ther 11th cousin.

It is also reported that Sarah Palin happens to be related to well known conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. They are all cousins through John Lathrop, a Church minister who came from England.

In 2009 it was revealed by Ancestry.com that President Obama was related to Warren Buffett, who is his 7th cousin three times removed, and also is related to Brad Pitt who is his 9th cousin. President Obama is also related to Former Vice President Dick Cheney through Mareen Duvall, a 17th century immigrant from France, reports The Chicago Sun Times.

AZCentral.com reports ..."The ties run through Obama's White, Kansas-born mother's side of the family. Palin's tie to Obama is through early Massachusetts settler John Smith, a Protestant pastor in the 1670s. Smith's wife was the sister of one of the first governors of the Plymouth Bay colony, Thomas Hinckley. Hinckley's father, Samuel, is the familial link between Obama and Bush. Obama's and Limbaugh's common ancestor is Richmond Terrell, who settled in Virginia around 1656 and acquired a large amount of land."
