Funny a lot of people would say the exact same thing regarding the left; inflexible, certain they are right until proven wrong. And then even when pesented with facts to back it up still refuse to admit they are wrong or apologize.
A timely and perfect example of this is the shooting this week. The left immediately aassumed the shooter was a right winger (talk about stepping back and examining angles lol. And when it was proven that he was not affiliated with the rightl including the tea party movement, Sarah P. etc did they admit the mistake and apologize? Of course not.
The right is not rigid it is the left that is rigid. And refused to use evidence in their assumptions.
And talk about always thinking they are right even when wrong-no you are sorely mistaken as this is your group that you so strongly defend. The left. Sorry.
Traditionally when Conservative groups in this country haven't been able to achieve their goals through the political process they have resorted to violence. This not not anything new.

Let me say this for those of you who cant read for whatever reason. Yes they all offend/bother me. I dont like people market with targets for political reasons. If you cant see this sorry.
What is the point of people like Palin, Limbaugh, etc etc using fire arm metaphors ?
One glance at that video of Palin attempting to fire a rifle made it obvious that Palin is a amateur where fire arms are concerned.
Limbaugh, well a pimple on his backside stopped him from serving, what was his motto, onward Aussie soldiers ?
Again, what he would know about firearms could be put on the sharp end of a pin.
Its just a common form of expression in our culture. Product manufacturers advertise to a 'targeted audience", the person you are enamored with is sometimes called "the target of your affections", people refer to targeted goals, and something a person is striving to achieve is referred to as "within their sights" or "in their cross hairs". Political campaigns, even 0bama's, had what they called a "war room" and they "go on the attack" or "defend their agenda". People also refer to responding quickly as "shooting from the hip" and if they tell you like it is, they give you "both barrels".
Maybe in the Care Bear's land of lollipops and gumdrops no one talks this way, but we do here in America. so unless you just flew in from a foreign country, or you are a narrow minded, partisan, political hack, then you would not even have to ask the question.
