Note to Readers: In order to make sure this article will be read by progressives, I asked a friend of that persuasion to scrub the post below for objectionable terms so please excuse the cross-outs
Sometimes its very hard not to feel empathy for the progressive media; their arguments keep getting shot down rejected. While most Americans have been occupied with praying for the wounded or mourning for the loss of the dead respirationally challenged from that horrible Tuscon shooting perpetuated by the mentally imbalanced Jared Loughner, the progressives in the mainstream media have been occupying their time attacking placing blame on everyone and everything conservative.
Take NY Times columnist/MIT economist Paul Krugman for example. He wrote a piece that placed the blame directly on the right wrong side of the aisle, blaming the shooting on their choice of words:
..its the saturation of our political discourse and especially our airwaves with eliminationist rhetoric that lies behind the rising tide of violence.
Wheres that toxic rhetoric coming from? Lets not make a false pretense of balance: its coming, overwhelmingly, from the right. Its hard to imagine a Democratic member of Congress urging constituents to be armed and dangerous without being ostracized; but Representative Michele Bachmann, who did just that, is a rising star in the G.O.P.
The Nobel Prize winning economist couldnt have really meant it because as TVs Andy Levy pointed out, less than 14 months ago Krugman opined
A message to progressives: By all means, hang Senator Joe Lieberman in effigy.

Who gets to decide what is inflammatory rhetoric? Are there vcertain words that wouldn’t be allowed in public speech or on the airways? Who would monitor? Is there a committee that has to evaluate public speech before it goes public? What is “toned down” rhetoric? What are the penalties? If innuendo might conjure up a violent image in a persons head, would that be considered inflammatory?
I wish people would ask them these questions! It would be interesting to hear the answers don’t you think?

65-year-old Man's Finger Bitten Off by Obamacare Supporter
I hereby utter my last apology, accept my last condescending assertion that I "just don't get it," and feel my last scintilla of a whiff of a pang of guilt. From this day forward, when it comes to Race in America.......
I WON'T CARE....
Wherever there's a hypersenstive grievance hustler hearing codewords for racial invective where it doesn't exist...I WON'T CARE.
Wherever there's a professional offense-taker taking offense at a joke that he deems racially insensitive...I WON'T CARE.
Wherever there's a dimwitted government bureaucrat who doesn't understand that "niggardly" isn't a racial slur...I WON'T CARE.
I WON'T CARE when some Hollywood simpleton, unable to distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants, says those who oppose the latter must all be racists.
I WON'T CARE about cliche-mongering race-baiters discounting achievements by prattling about "white privilege" or "institutional racism."
And when the entire cadre of corrupt, conniving conmen whose livelihoods depend upon keeping minorities convinced of their perpetual victimhood have to get honest jobs for the first times in their wretched, useless lives? I WON'T CARE.
I’d like to corner some of these MSM robots and ask them why none of these questions were ever asked about Major Nidal Hasan?
what is “TUSCON hate talk’?
Anything to do with the Arizona city called “Tucson”?
We’re using “Tuscon” in order to not offend the FB commie libs. That’s the way the commie libs spell it and if we correct them, they’ll accuse us of “bullying” them.
