I present two excerpts from the uber-liberal shit-bag that goes by the name Jonathan Alter of Newsweek (the socialist rag that sold for a dollar). The first one he states a correct position of conservatives with the exception of the phrase *"like to argue", no this is called reality, but then again Alter knows not of that term.
Then he continues on to state what socialists do which is also correct, wrong in practice, but never the less an admission,,,,,
"Conservatives like to argue that these are isolated incidents carried out by lunatics and therefore carry no big lessons (unless the perpetrator is Muslim, in which case it's terrorism); liberals view them as opportunities to address various social ills. Obama is in the latter category and should act accordingly. "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste," Rahm Emanuel famously said in 2008. The same goes for a shooting spree that gravely wounds a beloved congresswoman"
Not so bad one might say as this seems on target (yes, I purposely used that term) with the one *exception of course until you go further in the article and run smack dab into this, now just how sick does an individual have to be to write something like this,,,,,
"Sad to say, if Giffords had died, she would have been mourned and soon the conversation would have moved on. But Giffords lives, thank God, which offers other possibilities. We won't know for weeks or months whether she can function in public. If she can, she will prove a powerful referee of the boundaries of public discourse--more influential, perhaps, than the president himself"I did not, nor care to hear or see Obamas speech as I have never seen one, but what Alter wrote and thinks I believe Obama does no matter what he said last night. After all, what he was reading were word's of a speech writer not word's of his own.
On that point, it was nothing but a campaign rally,,,,watch til the end to see what the media did not show you at your expense I might add,,,,
Memorial Service Becomes Obama Rally; Cheers, Much Applause, Whistles, Free T-shirts

I ran across an excellent quote over at Camp of the Saints regarding this speech and subsequent reaction to it made by JeffG over at Protein Wisdom that sums up my thoughts as well on this:
Watching many on the right rush to congratulate the President for his supposedly compassionate speech, which included an ironic and hypocritical call for “civility” (NO LABELS, haters!) — after allowing his party and the media to spend five days suggesting that millions of Americans who happen to disagree with the Presidents policies were somehow co-conspirators to multiple murders, including that of a 9-year-old girl — it is clear to me why the GOP establishment and its supporters have consistently ceded ground to the progressives and to their agenda: they strive, above all else, to avoid being cast in a negative light by their political opponents. That is, they’re cowardly and cowed.
The rest of us don’t need to be.
To borrow from the execrable Kos (who, let’s remember, was one of the first of the progressive stampede to tie the shootings to Sarah Palin and the right), screw ‘em. Sideways. With a halibut.
Pelosi Weighs in with the Anti-Christian/Judeo Theme Earlier in the Day
Now, I do not know if anyone reading this post happened to catch the House of Representatives taking the time to put forward a resolution on this matter but I picked-up on a certain familiar theme from the socialist minority leader that I have not heard anyone speak upon yet.
I could only find a full length version of both Boehner and Pelosi speaking so if you wish to view the whole video be my guest.
But in the interest of time and more to the point of my sub-title, please fast-forward to the 13:55 mark
"We do not know why God saw this to be necessary"?
I did not count how many times this vermin said "pray" or "prayer" or what the hell she is praying to if at all but I am sure God saw His children stricken down on Saturday as very unnecessary and evil to boot you dumb bitch.
This evil act last Saturday and many more perpetrated on lesser known Americans everyday is a direct result of the socialist agenda of ridding the Nation of the very name of God.
Is this Gods' fault, no. He gave man free will, but when man chooses to ignore and not teach His words or at a minimum His 10 Commandments then it follows that man is left with no moral compass with which to navigate life itself.
I lay this and all crime at the feet of democrats, liberals, leftists and socialists in this country if they you can seperate them at all.
Is this the change you were waiting for? As they say "Go to sleep with a dog, you wake up with fleas"
