Does anyone (is anyone old enough?) to remember that line when Christopher Walken gets shot in The Dead Zone and is grabbed by Martin Sheen and Walken says "you're finished."?

Tragedy marks turning point for Palin - Jonathan Martin - POLITICO.com

I view Palin has even stronger support, in her view of the nation and the direction in which we need to take, to get back on track.

The spin of a tragedy, fits right in with the Progressive rule, of never letting a crisis go to waste.

Credibility is lost, basically zilch when juvenile displays are the only way of communicating.

If she's smart she'll ride her caribou off into the sunset and get out of the public eye.

Lets hope no-one takes your hate filled rhetoric to heart and attempts harm against Palin or her supporters....

From the link...

The other option is to simply remain in the private sector where she can continue to issue the envelope-pushing jeremiads and employ the overheated rhetoric that appeals to her loyal base, sells her books, draws TV viewers and makes her irresistible to a sound byte-hungry media.


Many are all in a tizzy that Palin is being pointed at as a catalyst to the tragedy. No, I do not believe that this lunatic shooter was directly spurred on by Palin's brand of rhetorical blather, but I do believe that it shines a light upon what needs to be exposed. Palin's divisive rhetoric and platitudes of propaganda can easily incite another nutjob to do something just as serious.

Pitbull, Mama Grizzly, Don't Retreat! Reload, Crosshairs Map, are all examples of the type of pseudo tough a$$ BS talk that has placed Palin in the limelight that she finds herself in after this tragedy. Maybe if she would have handled herself with dignity and voiced real ideas instead of her rhetoric, she would not be in this awkward position today. It has come back to bite her on the butt amd deservedly so!
