Hat tip to Extremely Extreme Extremist who pointed out long ago that Palin used surveyor symbols, not crosshairs.

Liberals think a surveyor symbol is a logo for a poll taker.

"I agree. It does look like cross hairs to the normal moronic american people.."

Aided by the Internet. Google cross hair or cross hairs and then click on images. Many city bred people like myself, are not necessarily morons, but are just not knowledgeable about hunting, guns or rifle scopes. I get my impressions of them from pictures that I have seen. FWIW, until the discussions yesterday, I had never heard of the Palin map.

"..........still............they were dumb symbols to use. "

So you are saying that Palin's campaign "acted stupidly". What symbol would you have used to designate a location on a map?

Clearly not crosshairs. Also ABSOLUTELY ZERO evidence Palin or tea party politics motivated the gunman yet MSM (repeatedly) are connecting the dots.

Doesn't matter if it's crosshairs or not (which it is not, but that's beside the point). Fact is, those are seats that were targeted by SarahPAC for funding to defeat vulnerable democRATS in the November election. What better symbol could be used to indicate this accurately?

The leftwing media would have us believe that by somebody painting a crosshair-like or target-like symbol on someone or something, it is an invitation to attack or shoot that person or thing. If that were the case, Target stores everywhere would be bullet-ridden death traps, and surviving shoppers would be looking elsewhere to do their shopping.

Type in your city & 2 letter state abbr. in the search space (upper left). Click on go, then click on radar image to enlarge. On the bottom of the radar picture it’ll read the city you chose and the survey point is directly in front of the city.

The shooter was a liberal/democrat.But the mainstream media lies and says that Conservatives like Palin and Beck made this liberal shoot these people. These are actions of pure evil by the democrat media. The democrat mainstream is lying. The media is lying to destroy Palin,conservatives, and freedom of speech by just shouting evil lies from a trillion media outlets.

As I’ve said before the democrat mainstream media is the center of evil in the world. Can anyone agree with me now as they see how they are lying now?This is no surprise as all marxist/democrats are evil.

“Thanks. Truth wouldn’t keep them from lying about it.”

They are too damn dishonest for that. And they wonder why people can’t stand them. Instead of lecturing us they should look in the mirror.

"What symbol would you have used to designate a location on a map?"

Probably a green vs. red stop light or letter symbols designating the dim party versus Republican party, or simple 'thumbs-up' or 'thumbs down'. Looks like that map is off that page now. The cartographer must be looking for other symbols, too.

As a GIS-using cartographer, I also identified them as coordninate point marks. (Also used for GPS "waypoints"...

However, the graphic artist was more likely to have had them available on his/her computer -- as "crop marks":

"Does anyone have a link to the picture of Bush with the target super imposed on his face that was run on national tv?"

No -- but here's a frame from a democrat campaign video -- with the circular view field and reticle of a rifle scope superimposed on the image of his Republican opponent:

Sounds like a bunch of liberal clap-trap to me.. I checked your home page. Bobby Jindal is NOT eligible for POTUS or VPOTUS. His parents were Foreign Nationalists and NOT United States citizens at the time of his birth.

Let's compromise and call them printer registration marks. We'll call them anything but what they truly are. Hey, if the Liberals can engage in redefining the obvious, so can we...
