Turning this into a blame game is retarded.
No single movement caused Jared to shoot those people, Jared shot them.
Let's fix the reasons that cause people to shoot based on a personal manifesto than try to pin the blame for it on our political opponents.

Not even Jared? 'Cause that might be difficult.
Not even Jared. Things work better when you're level headed and civil about this sort of discussion.

I'm quite serious, being civil in this kind of case makes the topic constructive, rather than just a slanging match.

Unless you have 22nd Century psychology at your disposal, there's no fixing crazy.
Crazy like this topic, or Crazy like me trying to make this topic civil?

Obama will Wednesday eulogize the victims and chart a path ahead for a political community convulsed by shock, after a gunman's failed assassination bid on an Arizona lawmaker killed six and wounded 14.
Yeah, eulogising the victims while avoiding assigning blame.  What an evil, partisan thing to do.

That is a damn cynical insinuation, it's kind of the presidential thing to have words on every major tragedy.

Bouchart, Obama is just trying to be considerate for the family.

Then he can be considerate in private.  This is just grandstanding.

You seems to be criticizing Obama's every move.

Bouchart:"I'm not criticizing his every move."
Me:" If you would criticize someone over this you would do it for near everything."

That's my prediction.

Nothing to do with it? 6 of his citizens were murdered including a Federal Judge and a Congressional aid, with the attempted murder of one of his own party's elected representatives. That has PLENTY to do with him. I can't think of a president in history who would NOT speak on this matter.

The Kanjorski point is valid : he did indeed said that his opponent should have been murdered.
Good one.

For the Obama and BBgun guys, are you joking?

Yet the point stay valid, no one should get away with this kind of rhetoric (neither Republican nor Democrats), and republicans have overdone it.
