ABC: Palin finds a way to be part of the story

One of you sent me this link and I’ve been avoiding it all day – not because of any fear of ABC, but because it’s so easy;

Sarah Palin, once again, has found a way to become part of the story. And she may well face further criticism for the timing and scope of her remarks. She is already taking heat for her use of the term “blood libel” (see today’s Tweets). In her video she notes, “President Obama and I may not agree on everything, but I know he would join me in affirming the health of our democratic process.” It remains to be seen exactly what Obama will say tonight, but White House aides say another goal of his address will be to lift the nation up in this moment, not sully it with politics.

How hard was it to become part of the story when they were dragging Palin’s name around as soon as the shooting began. Yeah, she used gun sights on Gifford’s district and Gifford was shot. How many others did she use gunsights to mark their districts and they weren’t shot. Obviously, she was using the gun sight imagery because of the fact that the Left goes nuts over the fact that she’s a woman and she hunts.

Over the past few days, a lot of undeserving people have been dragged into this. Take for example Uncle Jimbo at Blackfive who also has a blog titled “In the Crosshairs” who was taking some lightweight incoming fire.

Dick Mac says: January 8, 2011 at 4:53 pm (Edit) Nice job supporting this campaign, Uncle J! It sure has been effective. You can’t use expressions like “lock and load” and imagery like “crosshairs” and pretend it is not a call for shootings. This was a call for shootings, and now they have begon.

So I guess Jimbo found a way to make himself a part of the story, too, huh?

But, Bernie Sanders didn’t find a way to make himself a part of the story, did he? What? You didn’t hear? Yesterday, before the victims of Saturday’s shooting had reached room temperature, Sanders sent this fund raising letter to prospective donors;

Given the recent tragedy in Arizona, as well as the start of the new Congress, I wanted to take this opportunity to share a few words with political friends in Vermont and throughout the country. I also want to thank the very many supporters who have begun contributing online to my 2012 reelection campaign at www.berniesucksdicksatthePearlclub.org. There is no question but that the Republican Party, big money corporate interests and right-wing organizations will vigorously oppose me. Your financial support now and in the future is much appreciated.

Did you know that Vermont’s gun laws are less restrictive than Arizona’s? Yet somehow Republicans are responsible for Arizona’s shootings.

ABC went on;

For Palin, the challenge is for her to decide who she wants to — or can — be. Does she want to be a uniter and a national leader instead of one of the country’s most polarizing figures?

That’s hillarious. Before a word came out of her mouth when John McCain selected her to be his Vice Presidential candidate, the media and the Democrats (did I repeat myself there?) were using her to divide the country. Like they’d done to Hillary. Before the blood has congealed on the pavement in Tuscon, the Democrats and the media (there I go again) were already dragging her into the spotlight.

This is how they recover from their defeat in the last election; trying to shame us into submission with their red hot vicious rhetoric and the imagery of a dead nine-year-old. Notice how quickly Joe dragged her limp corpse and her bereaved mother out in the comments on one post below.

Is it possible for half of the country to jump the shark at the same time. To borrow from Jimbo; fucking pussies.
