Haven’t such words as “targeted” or “crosshairs” been used for decades figuratively not literally in politics?
Let’s see if the use of these words comes back during the 2012 election cycle.
Only an idiot would blame Sarah Palin for this. What happened to Congresswoman Giffords was terrible, and the trigger man should have been given help before he resorted to such violence. But as we know, he had a history with Cong. Giffords office for several years, long before Sarah Palin was on the scene.
But the lib media must continue to march on using more “victims” and finding skapegoats to blame.
Stupid MSNBC....I mean Politico.
Why I hate libs.
Gabby, I pray for your continued healing, but that doesn't mean you aren't an idiot.
They owe Sara Palin an apology, they know she had absolutely nothing to do with the shooting.
Boo hoo poor GG, Sara objected to people saying she was responsible for a mass murderer.
Michael Dershowitz and other prominent Jews have stated Sara used the term correctly.
Politico is Obama.
Where is all there concern for the real wonder warriors. Why does Gifford deserve more consideration then them... oh ya she was fighting to take away our liberty not preserve it. That makes her a heroin to the left and media.
I an so tired hearing about Gifford other people died
There is something that creeps me out about these two.
When asked what one word describes her husband, I swear I heard Giffords say “Horny.” Then he rushed to cover it up with something else.
Something is not quite right. What is she—his third wife?
He seems very exploitative.
We have our cross-hairs on you, Pollutico~
Democrats actually used crosshairs on a head pic of Bush 43 and other "enemies"..............

More rancid garbage from the vermin at Pollutico. That place really needs to be professionally fumigated.
Giffords reminds me of Jim Brady. Both suffered irreversable brain damage. Both have been exploited by their spouses for political purposes.
Makes ya wonder, if Giffords were SO concerned about the target map, how come she didn’t have not even ONE security guard that day..not ONE..so if someone is oh so terrified of a map you would think she would have had actual security at such a publicized event
I have no ill will towards Gabby, I want her to get better, but as far as her husband goes..I think he is a prick. Do I commend him for standing by his wife and help take care of her, yes, but the second he made this about politics I lost all respect for him, he may be a good husband but he sucks at being a human being. The little 9 year old girl’s family didn’t make this about politics and neither should the Giffords. She was shot by a madman who was obsessed with her since 2007, teachers at his school were terrified of him, was that Sarah Palin’s fault too? Sarah Palin and her family deserve an apology because they were being accused of horrible things that they had absolutely NOTHING to do with. I wonder where the media was when they were getting death threats left and right *Crickets chirping*
I don’t get it. Why the hate on Palin after all this time? She cowed to their threats. She isn’t running for President. I guess they want to take her journalism job, too. I wish they’d just leave her alone.
They were not crosshairs; they were map markings. Sigh. . I reckon that ignorance is next to godliness to liberals.
What concerns me is that Mrs Giffords thinks she should run again for office, my daughter is severly brain damaged from a simple bump on the head in a car accident, not a bullet in the brain. My daughters memory is about 20 mins, and complex ideas elude her.
I’m sorry mame but it’s time to retire and let your husband care for you, not tug on the heart strings of the ignorant who vote out of simpathy instead of common sense.
She should run just because of that.
