Demagoguery has consequences too, Sheriff.

And you aren't going to like them.

Free speech has consequences.....no doubt President Bush and Governor Palin have spent some time worrying about this as well.

"If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, 'We're going to punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us, if they don't see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it's going to be harder and that's why I think it's so important that people focus on voting on November 2." - Barack Obama

The left will portray this nut job as a puppet of the Tea Parties and call for a shut down of talk radio and Internet blogs. This is Obama’s Reichstag fire.

The old fool is completely out of line! Kudos to Megyn for calling him on it! I feel like calling his office and letting them know that We The People don’t need him trying to put a chill on Free Speech because there are people who are passionate about their country. Passion is not vitriol, but it seems to liberals passions on their side is fine, but passion from the right is hate speech or vitriol! It just makes me sick!

I think it is sad, pathetic and heartless that the MSM and some rat politicians are trying to score political points off this mass murder. And to blame Palin? Why? Because they don’t have George Bush to kick around anymore? Or blame the seniors and those flag waving little old ladies and football moms in the tea parties? Puleeeze. Journalism is dead in this country. And now they’re trying to ruin the internet— the last bastion of truth.

One of the bad things about getting older is that you loose your ability to speculate and you're relegated to recollecting what happened when similar things occurred in geardagum. I recollect another freshman Republican Congress that was driving down the field against leftist largesse when Columbine occurred. The leftist used that tragedy to blitz the Republicans with an attack on the Second Amendment and they had the Republicans in such disarray that John Dingle had to step in and stop the gun-control since it was only intended as a distraction to steal the momentum from the Republicans. Since my speculator no longer works well I'll just have to constrain myself to saying: Democrats are very good at using any crisis to their advantage.

Did Loughner give a hoot (as in giving assent) about what any Republican said? I doubt it.

All anyone has to know about Clarence the Clown is that he has been an unknown “sheriff” for 28 years. He was a total unknown until he defied Arizona’s governor and threw his support behind the illegal aliens’ invasion of the U.S. He got a second 15 minutes when a U.S. congresswomen was gunned down in HIS “Mecca of prejudice and bigotry”.

After seeing this. I would bet money that the Lib Law enforcement in Tuscon let this guy skate on something due to his mom being Lib-connected in the local democrat party. Not the Tea Party but Lib Crats are responsible for this. His lawyers told him not to talk and seems like the Feds are keeping him out of the loop. Something fishy is going on with this guy.

Wow...just WOW! How this tool is still standing is beyond me. Who is he accountable too and why hasn’t this Clown started his retirement? This is Arizona, if he can get away with this in AZ, this Country is over and done. We can’t all move to Texas.

My email to the Sheriff

Actual Topic: Sheriff’s News Conference Yesterday

Sheriff Clarence W. Dupnik

I think people such as yourself need to remember when you are so intent on blaming what voters have said as the cause for this tragedy, why not mention the rhetoric from Democrat politicians and liberal talking heads including:

President Obama:

“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said in Philadelphia last night. “Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”

And “I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face.”

Or John Kerry who said on the Bill Maher show: “I could have gone to 1600 Pennsylvania and killed the real bird with one stone.”

Or Howard Dean “I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for…”

and: “This is a struggle between good and evil and we’re the good?”

and “we need to remember that the enemy here is George Bush, not each other.”

Or Senator Chuck Schumer who called a flight attendant a “bitch.”

Or the Florida Democrats who ran an ad calling for the assassination of Donald Rumsfeld

Or New York State Comptroller Alan Hevesi who called for Senator Schumer to “put a bullet between the president’s eyes?”

Or Jonathan Chait who said “I hate President George W. Bush.”

Or singer Rickie Lee Jones who aid of President Bush “You’re an ignorant, low-class, opportunistic man, both personally and politically, who does everything for political gain and nothing for the wellbeing of the people, and you should not be in office, and the kind of fascism you’re perpetrating on our country we don’t want, and you’re out. We’re done with you. Ffffhgggmm.”

And when asked if she would be willing to take Bush out for the benefit of democracy? “If I say that, I might get arrested when I go back. And I have to go home.” She’s thinking it out carefully. “I guess the question is, would I kill anyone? And the answer is, no. But would I feel sorry if someone killed him? No, I wouldn’t. It would depend on who killed him, I guess.”

Or “The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn” where they superimposed the words “Snipers Wanted” over an image of Bush delivering his acceptance speech at the Republican convention.

Or Nobel Peace Prize winner Betty Williams who said she could kill President Bush?

Or Randi Rhodes who joked about killing the President?

Or Reverend Wright who called Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice, Condoskeeza [sic] Rice.

Or England’s Charlie Brooker who wrote: “On November 2, the entire civilised world will be praying, praying Bush loses. And Sod’s law dictates he’ll probably win, thereby disproving the existence of God once and for all. The world will endure four more years of idiocy, arrogance and unwarranted bloodshed, with no benevolent deity to watch over and save us. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr – where are you now that we need you?”

This is what I am feeling when I read the comments on yahoo. I am getting angrier and angrier that the left knows it was one of theirs yet they keep spewing the lie that it was a Tea partier or Palin did it. There are post there that say Sarah might as well have pulled the trigger.. The lies of the left are incredible. If one of the Republicans gets killed this is going to get ugly fast.
