Is the DailyKos blogger running for any office?


Posted: Jan 10, 2011

Just wondering how you can compare a liberal blogger's comments to those of political candidates such as Sarah Palin and Sharron Angle.

;

Because hate speech is hate speech. - And if you are going on

supposition, and all the facts right now point to the shooter being liberal, not conservative, why would an ultraconservative woman/women be where he would get his motivation to shoot?
If he was motivated, he would be going to far left liberal sites where his nuttiness would be embraced...he blogged himself for pete's sake!! Why on earth would he be going to sarah palin's website?

THAT is how I can compare them. And I can promise you, the blogs is where the real violence and rhetoric is...in no uncertain terms, like shoot them in the head.

Have you even read up on the shooter? He kept a letter from a Giffords' meet and greet from 2007 in his safe along with the assassination note. The kid has been fixated on her since 2007. LONG before any rhetoric from Sharron Angle OR Sarah Palin.

Just curious...what makes you think a deranged mind would discount information from a liberal blogger and embrace information from someone running for office?

Did anyone see the latest photo on this guy? Look at - those eyes... he is just a nut ! nm

his smile and his eyes. To me, he looks happy to be in that situation.

Some are already talking about gun control and controlling freedom of speech, all because of AZ's lax gun laws and because of those pointing fingers and accusations immediately after the shootings.

I guess now that more info is coming out about this kook, some faces are red, as they should be, for jumping to conclusions.

If we could get some Congressmen to follow the rules they want everyone else to follow, I don't think they'd be so quick to condemn/accuse/point fingers.

I also think the sheriff of Pima County should lose his job for starting this whole crap shoot. He is more to blame than anyone. As one newspaper stated, "this is not the time or place to have a political agenda." I agree fully with that statement.

Now Wikileak's Assange is calling for Palin and Huckabee to be brought up on charges. Real nice coming from someone whose whole agenda has relied on freedom of speech as the reason why he is posting all his damaging reports.

You could probably say that about a dozen people...Chris Mathews, and lots of other white people. Why did you single Beck out? I don't like the guy myself, but even if you hate him there was no reason for that comment.
Why not stop with the trash talking? - About EVERYONE.

BOTH sides. Can't we just STOP?

Question: do you enjoy making fun of people? Does this give you some kind of good feeling? I mean...what's the purpose? Seriously...what is the purpose?
Thats sick. You proud of that sick joke? - You probably are... sad.nm

LOL - I think youre right! - Birds of a feather, and all that.

I don't think he has talked yet, has he? - sm

I guess anyone claiming to know something would still be speculating. Anyway, the sheriff has as much right to state his beliefs as "the right" does. The violent imagery used by the tea party fringe and some media is a different issue all together. It was an issue all through the presidential campaign and it still is today. Hopefully, we will all wake up and recognize that.
Don't start that again. The sheriff had NO PROOF - Backwards Typist
[ In Reply To ..]
that the shooter was egged on by any political agenda. In fact, now that more has come out, he was totally WRONG for starting the crap he did.

Sorry, but my opinion is if you are of sound mind and body, anything said by anyone-be it political or otherwise- should be taken with a grain of salt until the full story comes out and not putting the horse before the cart as some do.

I didn't post much yesterday because I wanted to see what other commentators had to say and I wasn't surprised how they all said they should tone down the rhetoric and then start spewing the same old, same old, trying to blame one party or another.

Don't forget Ft. Hood and 9/11. We weren't supposed to jump to conclusions about the Muslims. Yet, here we are jumping to conclusions the very first hour. Those that did [jump to conclusions] without FACTS should be ashamed and apologize for their antics. All it does is tear our country apart even further.

I could name some quotes from the left that were just as bad as those you blame on the right but I won't because it doesn't serve any purpose.

All I know is the people that were wounded and the families of the ones that were killed should be in our prayers and we should be thinking about them. They deserve it.
Interesting--your comment about Muslims and jumping to conclusions - sm

Michael Moore apparently tweeted:

"If a Detroit Muslim put a map on the web w/crosshairs on 20 pols, then 1 of them got shot, where would he be sitting right now? Just asking..."

Good point, I think.
No, the left would be instead saying we don't - know it was a Muslim,
[ In Reply To ..]
let's not rush to judgment...and if a Republican sheriff within minutes said "Muslims were behind it" the ACLU would be all over him like ugly on an ape. Yet within minutes it was the tea party's fault and Sarah Palin's fault this happened without one OUNCE of proof.

By the way, Michael Moore would not know a point if it bit him on the hind end. He is an America hater from way back who has made money on tragedy before (Columbine) and probably will again. Maybe his next film will be Bowling in Tucson?

Cannot figure out why the left would even want to be associated with him.

What exactly would you like to have happen? Republicans locked away in camps?

What exactly is the purpose of all this??
He is a sheriff for pete\'s sake!! He is supposed - to be IMPARTIAL in an

ongoing case! Some responsibility goes with the job you are in. How can anyone but a left winger feel like they will get a fair shot in his county?

Why not take to task the SEIU who during the campaign for President were actually beating people up, not using imagery? What\'s your excuse for them? For the moveon.org operative who bit the healthcare opponent\'s finger off in a physical fight? What about THAT? When you YOU going to WAKE up and recognize that actual physical harm was done by the left\ and you are curiously silent about that.

This one-sided holier-than-thou attitude really needs to stop. Imagery is one thing...kicking the crap out of someone and biting off fingers is quite another, wouldn\'t you say????

His eyes in the photo remind me of Charlie Manson's - creepy-looking, smirking eyes. nm

He reminded me of Chucky (without hair) :-) - sm
[ In Reply To ..]
I would not equate him with any person on earth that he looks like (not even the ones I hate). He definitely looked like a creep. I don't know if I'd use the word evil, but just a very disturbed individual.

I would be really interested to know why he did this. It's not political, it's just hate, and why do people hate others so much that they want to kill them. I don't understand it, but I find it interesting. What makes a mind turn like that. I heard people say he was normal and within the last year or so he started changing...why? That's what I would like to know.

I feel for the friends and family of the ones lost at the fate of this disturbed person, and how many others out there are like him. It could be anyone anywhere.

But put some hair on him and he could be Chucky.

Actually, he was registered as an independent. - FYI

And not surprisingly so...as I have said all along... - there was never any proof

[ In Reply To ..]
that this was politically motivated, yet within minutes the left was on board blaming the right, i.e. "way to go tea party."

I think the picture says it all, if his incoherent ramblings did not. He's a very sick individual. He targeted her back in 2007. Had nothing to do with right, middle or left; Republican, Independent, or Democrat; liberal or conservative. It had to do with his sick, sick mind.

Just a terrible, tragic situation.
