I have great respect for retired Navy Captain Mark Kellys service to this nation. I also admire the courage of Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. See Thursdays post, God bless you, Gabrielle Giffords. But I find Captain Kellys tactics for selling his new book to be insulting , misleading and plain out wrong. More than that it is disturbingly dishonorable.
From the London Daily Mail:
But it was the lack of any contact from former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin that was surprising said Mr Kelly.
Citing the book, Mr Morgan said that it revealed some interesting insights into political colleagues and people that [Gabby Giffords] had worked for and against.
Speaking about a map for which Palin was responsible, with crosshairs over certain states including Arizona, Mr Morgan said that the Alaskan doesnt come out of this very well, I dont think, because there was a woman who at the time had been putting these crosshair things on her website and stuff, including Gabby, he said.
Sarah Palins map had nothing to do with the attempted assassination of Congresswoman Giffords. The man who shot her knew nothing of the map and had stalked the captains wife for 3 years prior to the shooting that left 6 people dead.

Look for them to repeat this lie many times in the coming months.
Truth be damned, they’re gonna run with it anyway.
So let's see. The Daily KOS put crosshairs on Giffords because she wasn't liberal enough, and Loughner was a 9-11 truther who hated Bush, and who do lefties blame for the attack? Palin.
It has the foul stench of the JournoList crowd.
I blame the shooter who was & still is nuttier than a squirrel turd. 8^/
I thought those “cross-hairs” were surveyor marks.
The democrats used them, too.
I wonder whether Kellys angling for his own political career.
////////////////
I believe I heard recently on a radio talk show that there is speculation that — rather than run for his wife’s seat — Kelly may attempt to run for the Senate from Texas (as a Democrat, of course) to take RINO Kay Bailey Hutchison’s seat.
Well, if Kelly replaces Hutchison, I guess no one will notice. The Senate votes will continue along the same basic line of ideology.
Here is the URL to the image of the jeep Compass for ‘09
It isnt a good image but if you look at the rear bumper, the “O” in Compass is replaced with the surveyor mark
C4P had a video link on yesterday’s open board about a local AZ TV station questioning the motives of those accusing or hinting that Palin had a part of the shooting. Gifford’s hubby said Palin had nothing to do with the matter but then quipped about Palin’s “tone” (gag alert).
They can’t pin it on her but that won’t stop them from throwing excrement to see what sticks.
I’m really having a hart time feeling sorry from them if they keep playing this “guilt by subtle insinuations”.

For my money, Piers Morgan is one of the sleaziest, nastiest, most deranged individuals I ever met. That CNN would employ such a nasty, anti-American British sleazebucket to anchor one of their evening shows, just goes to prove how out of touch with real America CNN is.
For those who have forgotten about it, this same Piers Morgan used to be the editor of the notorioius anti-American British tabloid, The Mirror, which published fake pictures from some porn sites and sited them US and British troops abusing Iraqui prisoners:
“Daily Mirror editor Piers Morgan has been sacked following pressure over faked photos of soldiers abusing an Iraqi prisoner.
The Queens Lancashire Regiment earlier told a press conference the Mirror had to apologise for running the pictures and endangering British troops.
A statement from the Mirror said it had fallen victim to a calculated and malicious hoax. The Mirror board said it would be inappropriate for Morgan to continue. . . .
The photos that were published in the Daily Mirror have done great damage to the reputation of our troops, who are serving under some of the most difficult conditions in Iraq.
Earlier Colonel Black, a former regiment commander of the QLR, said the pictures put lives in danger and acted as a recruiting poster for al-Qaeda”

On top of all that, the evil Mr Morgan still refused to aplogise for putting the lives of British troops in danger.
“According to one report Mr Morgan refused the demand to apologise, was sacked and immediately escorted from the building,” he said.
Morgan will be replaced on a temporary basis by his deputy, Des Kelly. “

So let me see if I get this right, Piers Morgan, who maliciously and deliberately publishedd fake pictures (from porn sites) of British and US troops abusing Iraqi prisoners, which lead directly to the beheading of American contractor Nicholas Berg(amongst others), is now(without any evidence), accusing Sarah Palin of causing Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords to be shot, by some madman who hadn't even seen the Palin map he refers to, and who had furthermore been stalking the congresswoman for 3 years prior to the shooting? What a creepy , disgusting fellow Piers Morgan is.
