You are so right. They totally model themselves after the Borg. I love the comparison.

How long after the incident did the post that? I’m thinking right away.

Pretty darn quick. I didn't see a posting time but I did find this quote:

"Dupnik said that [Judge John] Roll, whom he described as "one of the finest human beings I ever met in my life," had stopped by Giffords' event on his way home from Mass, which he attended daily."

Is it possible that Dupnik feels great guilt for letting the shooter wander loose to kill his friend?

You can bet that when the Republicans put the Obamacare repeal back on the docket in the house, we’ll hear cries of, “See...more vitriol from the right!”

"Experts Note Increased Use of 'Vitriol' Unexpected"


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

If dissent is perceived as “vitriolic”, then so be it. They want us to stop dissenting.

I know. We need to wear it like a badge of courage.

First thank you for your sons service!

The left has been using "vitrolic" language since the tea party's conception over two years ago. They cannot stand that America is not following them to their Utopia they have planned for us.

They hate Reagan, Bush, Cheney, Palin, Petraus, condi Rice, the soldiers fighting in any war, Glenn Beck, Rush, O'Reilly etc,etc.

They love terroists (freedom fighters), wikileaks (freedom of speech) and the Palestanians (victims).

Is our alleged president not the personification of "vitriol"?

- - He's insulted his predecessor, President Dubya, numerous times.

- - He's gone out of his way to insult our traditional allies.

- - Obama insulted the U S Supreme Court, to their face, in the SOTU.

- - IIRC, he's insulted and disrespected the finest among us, those who wear the uniform.

- - IIRC, he believes that his critics are "enemies".

The list goes on.

Am I wrong here? Has there ever been a U. S. President who would closely fit the term "vitriolic"?

Your probably right. But, only a coward would demonize others for what he might have stopped.

When you're right, you're right.

let’s end vitriol, end this stuff ...

* “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.” Barack Obama in July 2008

* “I want you to argue with them and get in their face!” Barack Obama, September 2008

* “Here’s the problem: It’s almost like they’ve got — they’ve got a bomb strapped to them and they’ve got their hand on the trigger. You don’t want them to blow up. But you’ve got to kind of talk them, ease that finger off the trigger.” Barack Obama on banks, March 2009

* “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!” Barack Obama on ACORN Mobs, March 2010

* “We talk to these folks… so I know whose ass to kick.” Barack Obama on the private sector, June 2010

* “A Republican majority in Congress would mean ‘hand-to-hand combat’ on Capitol Hill for the next two years, threatening policies Democrats have enacted to stabilize the economy.” Barack Obama, October 6, 2010

* “We’re gonna punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us.” Barack Obama to Latinos, October 2010
