Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.) doesn't appreciate a remark made by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) that used gun imagery.
Palin tweeted Tuesday about the passage of the healthcare reform bill into law:
Commonsense Conservatives & lovers of America: "Don't Retreat, Instead - RELOAD!" Pls see my Facebook page.
The New York Democrat responded Wednesday, ripping the comment:
Reload? @SarahPalinUSA Is your choice of words inciteful or ignorant?
Palin's "reload" comment came at a time when several Democratic lawmakers who voted for the healthcare bill have received personal threats to their personal safety. Palin has not condoned the incidents.
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) have denounced the threats to members of Congress.

I WAS going to poll the Membership to see just how many received death threats - either way (Vote for and get a threat, vote against, get a threat) to see if the
vote for it and die
Vs
Vote against it and die (there are nutcases on both sides, eh?) polled more one way or the other.
Wiser heads preveiled and I did not poll the Membership.
Still think it would be instructive, in so many ways. Then again, I am a sociologist by training.
I know it will come to me if I think about it!
If Israel can't "turn two mincing steps into a manly stride" then he needs to sit down and shut up.
Palin is correct. We have to keep reloading our strength, our enthusiasm, our resolve to fight the insidious onslaught of the liberals, marxists, terrorists and others out to destroy our constitution, our rights, our traditions, and our country. God bless Sarah Palin and all of you others that are with each other in this battle. If we wanted to strike out in violence, we would not waste time making empty threats. The people that do such things are not our kind.
Agreed. That is why I strategically used the word “traditional”
He can’t help it if he’s “sensitive.”
It’s ok to reload. Just don’t re-elect.
Time to boot the party of the ass’s out forever.
Drive a wedge into them. Drive it in hard, and drive it in deep.
When these a**holes have to wonder if their own staffs are 'loyal', well....
I take exception to the shear existence of EMOcrats.
This stuff is just getting plain childish.
It is obvious these Progressive Socialists have burned out their brain cells. They are in desperation mode to shift the focus off their god awful Obamanation of a Obamacare POS. So, what do they do? They target Sarah Palin. So easy. So quick to perform for their socialist masters. Proof that DemonRATs have reached the peak of their competancy which is no deeper than the tinkle down their leg. They and have evolved from DemonRATS and have become the StupidRAT party.
These Democrats are unhinged and it means they know exactly what they did by passing the obamanation called ObamaCare.
Palin made that tweet prior to Hoyer’s press conference claiming the so called “threats.”
Their guilt is showing and I hope this nonsense of their victim mentality and sheer hypocrisy backfires on them. Anybody with one brain cell left knows how the liberals treated Bush and Republicans for 8 years.
Plus I would hope most Americans aren’t idiotic enough to fall into the media propaganda since that statement of Palin’s is quite obvious. And these Democrats sound like 5 year olds (not 6 year olds, as Gibbs has called some republicans).
Sheesh, our sports teams talk about reloading every year when the seniors graduate.
Your message is a little clouded.
