You and I know that...but just showing how even the "well respected" .... NYTimes columnist who just wrote this:
We don’t have proof yet that this was political, but the odds are that it was. She’s been the target of violence before. And for those wondering why a Blue Dog Democrat, the kind Republicans might be able to work with, might be a target, the answer is that she’s a Democrat who survived what was otherwise a GOP sweep in Arizona, precisely because the Republicans nominated a Tea Party activist. (Her father says that “the whole Tea Party” was her enemy.) And yes, she was on Sarah Palin’s infamous “crosshairs” list."
This gives ratings fodder for the likes of talk show screamer-Joy Behar and the MSNBC usuals..................so they can recruit more anger toward Palin and the dreaded Tea Party folks.
