Political Blame Game

Seizing a Tragedy for Political Gain

Unfortunately the tragedy in Arizona has brought out the worst in Liberal Politicians eager to seize this opportunity; to use the shooting as a platform for political name-calling and to blame Conservatives, GOP Political Candidates, Political Pundits such as Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh and Conservative Groups for the shooting.

Are you kidding Me?

Before the suspect was even identified the County Sheriff, Clarence Dupnik was already blaming conservative political rhetoric from the right as the root cause for the shooting and the motivation for the shooter to commit this horrendous act.

What a Moron!

Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik got plenty of attention when he quickly pinned the blame for the assassination attempt on Rep. Gabrielle Gifford's, D-Ariz., on conservatives, Rush Limbaugh and even Republican opposition to the “progress” being sought by his fellow Democrats.

But it has now been revealed that Dupnik’s department had prior interaction with suspect Jared Loughner. The department is still holding back details of the calls, but has now confirmed that deputies made multiple visits to the Loughner home in recent years.
The suspect and his motive and the real evidence portray a sick disturbed DEMOCRAT. Yes, he is a liberal pot-head, unstable for years and has stalked Representative Gifford's for years, with the clear knowledge of law enforcement, fellow students and warnings from professors that have stated for the record, "this young man is dangerous and needs therapy." So with all the warning signs and the overwhelming evidence that Mr. Loughner is a Liberal sicko who has a long history of descent towards his own party's agenda and the policies of his Representative ...

Why was Mr. Loughner not treated or stopped long ago?

It is now known that Dupnik the County Sheriff, outspoken against Conservative free speech ... has known about Mr. Loughner and his behavior and threats long ago. So there is your motive. It is quite obvious now why the Sheriff was anxious to deflect scrutiny away from his office and the knowledge he had obtained ... and instead to blame all conservatives and hope to silence their right to free speech. He was hiding the truth!

So have the media and Democratic Candidates told us the truth?

Nope. Instead of exercising caution and waiting for the facts of the case to reveal the truth, liberal leaders with the backing of the press have all got on the band-wagon to use this tragic event to further their political agenda and to even go so far as to introduce legislation to limit free speech, re-visiting the Fairness Doctrine adopted by the FCC in the 50's.

BTW ... The primary purpose of the Fairness Doctrine was to assure each candidate from each party was given the same allocation on time on the air ... not to limit the time from a single party for the benefit of the other as current leaders advocate!

On Tuesday, Rep. Kurt Schrader, D-Ore., was quoted in the Oregon Statesman-Journal saying he blamed conservative media personalities like Fox News' Glenn Beck and radio host Rush Limbaugh.

"I hold them personally responsible. I don't know how they can sleep at night after this," Schrader said.

This kind of guy is an elected official?

What is disturbing about all of this is the assertion that FREE SPEECH is in question or that a Bill or Law needs to be drafted to limit or regulate the opinion from either side of the isle.
Rules in Sports are drafted and adopted to assure a level playing field and that each team is treated equally on the field. What liberal leaders on Capitol Hill are advocating is to tip the scales and control the field of play. Shame on them. And what is even more deplorable is that they have used the shooting of Congresswoman Gifford's as an opportunity to change the rules of engagement.

My suggestions to Leaders on Capitol Hill ...

Listen to the father of the nine year old girl who was senselessly murdered.
Find out why Sheriff Dupnik did not proactively protect Rep. Gifford's.
Introduce legislation to track and add dangerous individuals to an ATF watch list. Keep dangerous people from buying guns ... limit gun ownership to law abiding citizens.
Exercise restraint in crisis situations.
Get all of the facts before you call a press conference.
Stop using tragedies to further your own agenda.
