Arizona Sheriff Says He Doesn't Know Why Loughner Shot Giffords And Others But He's Pretty Sure It's Because Of Republicans UPDATED With Video

This clown, Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik, just gave an interview to Megyn Kelly on Fox News where he admitted he had no evidence about the Arizona shooting but then went on to speculate it involved Republican opposition to Democrat legislation, unidentified donors to political issue groups and free speech.

Keep in mind, Dupnik isn't just some guy or some local official...he's the lead investigator in this case. Why in the world is publicly speculating about this? It's political hackery and sheer incompetence of the highest order.

He also talked about how much he misses the America that existed when he was younger. He's in his mid 70s. So he misses things like Puerto Rican nationalists shooting 5 members of the House on the House floor, John and Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King and on and on.

I don't have a link yet but it was quite a performance. He made similar remarks yesterday. Arizona Senator Jon Kyl smacked him around earlier today for yesterday's partisan attack.

Frank J. from IMAO caught the interview as well and this quote from Dupnik.

Just to reiterate, Sheriff Dupnik puts some of the blame of the shooting on "one party blocking another party from bettering this country."

Here's the interview, if you can stomach it.

Below the fold is a post I wrote back in April of this year but never got around to posting about Dupnik and his views on the Arizona immigration law. He talked about it on Countdown with Keith Olbermann (of course). He wasn't impressed by it but he also didn't seem to know what he was talking about.

Original Unpublished Post from April 29th, 2010:

One of the things that has really annoyed me about the 'debate' over Arizona's immigration law is the fact free nature of a lot of it. Last night Olbermann's show took it to a new level.

Keith interviewed the Pima County Arizona Sheriff, Clarence Dupnik. Sheriff Dupnik says he won't enforce the law because it's "racist". While explaining this, Dupnik made some strange statements.

First of all, law enforcement people—state and local law enforcement people—now have the authority to stop and detain people who they believe are illegal immigrants and turn them over to the border patrol.
We have been doing that for—I‘ve been a police officer here for 52
years, 30 years as sheriff—and we‘ve been doing that for as long as I‘ve
been a cop here. And the Pima County sheriff‘s department does that in
greater numbers than any other state and local law enforcement agency in
our state. We don‘t brag about that.
One of the reasons we do it is because we‘re situated directly in the
corridor from Mexico to the United States where the vast majority of
smuggling of contraband and illegals is taking place. And that‘s one of
the reasons that we do that.
But my objection to the state law that was enacted by the governor and
the legislature is twofold. One: I believe it‘s unconstitutional. I don‘t
think, as you pointed out earlier in this show, that the states have the
authority to preempt federal government when it comes to immigration
issues.
And second of all, I think it‘s going to be held unconstitutional on
the basis of the key phrase in the bill that says we can stop them and ask
them for papers and so forth on reasonable suspicion. Now, I‘ve been a cop for 52 years. I‘m not sure what reasonable suspicion means, and I suspect that‘s going to be constitutionally vague. (emphasis mine, DrewM.)

Um, if it's something you've been doing all along, why exactly is it suddenly "racist"?

Second and more troubling, is it really believable that this officer with over 50 years of law enforcement experience doesn't know what the standard for "reasonable suspicion" is? Even to my non-lawyer ears that sounded, um, wrong.

"Reasonable suspicion" goes back to a case called Terry v. Ohio and led to something widely known as a "Terry Stop". 29 states have so-called Stop and Identify laws. One of them is, wait for it, Arizona.

A. It is unlawful for a person, after being advised that the person's refusal to answer is unlawful, to fail or refuse to state the person's true full name on request of a peace officer who has lawfully detained the person based on reasonable suspicion that the person has committed, is committing or is about to commit a crime. A person detained under this section shall state the person's true full name, but shall not be compelled to answer any other inquiry of a peace officer.
B. A person who violates this section is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor.

The emphasis is mine.

My point isn't that these laws are exactly the same. There are whole lines of cases about when detention begins, what people's rights are at various stages of detention and arrest and on and on. Seems the sheriff may need to do some home work.

If Sheriff Dupnik is still unclear on these points, perhaps he should consult Andy McCarthy's (a former federal prosecutor) post at The Corner.

Brief detentions are known in the law as "Terry stops" — thanks to the famous Supreme Court case of Terry v. Ohio, 392 U.S. 1 (196. Under Terry, a police officer may only detain a person if the officer has reasonable, articulable suspicion of criminal activity. This standard is not met by a hunch or a generalized suspicion — a cop who says to himself, "Those look like Mexicans, they must be up to no good," does not make the grade. Instead, the officer must be able to articulate specific facts which, together with the logical inference to be drawn from those facts, reasonably suggest that criminal activity has occurred or is imminent. Courts are deferential to the judgment of police officers — the standard is not what any person would think of the facts observed but what an experienced cop acting reasonably and responsibly would think. But there must be specific, describable indicia of criminal activity.
...Now, why do I say the Arizona law is more restrictive of police than is federal law? Well, the Supreme Court has held that one common rationale for a permissible Terry stop is to ascertain the identity of the person who is detained. That is, federal law would probably permit an inquiry into citizenship as a part of establishing who the detainee is — again, as long as the officer had a good reason for detaining the person in the first place.
The Arizona law, by contrast, does not give a cop this latitude. Instead, the officer is permitted to attempt to determine the person's immigration status only if, in addition to the initial contact being lawful, there also exists specific "reasonable suspicion that the person is an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States." As I noted above, our Fourth Amendment jurisprudence teaches that reasonable suspicion requires specific, articulable facts — not a hunch or generalized suspicion. Thus, the Arizona law requires that there be reasonable suspicion for both the initial stop (e.g., the police officer observed erratic driving and concluded the person might be intoxicated) and for pursuing a line of inquiry about whether the person is an illegal alien.

Read the whole post, it's rather instructive. Unless you prefer name calling and ill-informed commentary, in that case, stick with Olbermann and the like.

Are there reasonable points to be made against this law? Of course. The preemption objection clearly can be argued in good faith.

Might it be abused by cowboy cops? Yes, it might. Just like every other law might be and probably has. There will be time for these "as applied" challenges later. If the idea is that laws can't be passed because they might be abused were to take hold, well, we might as well but every legislature out of business (which is a whole other discussion).

Can on argue this is simply not good policy? Of course but that's a legislative issue, not a judicial one.

50 I have a question for Sheriff Dopenik: where were the police/sheriffs?

usually any gathering by a group of people is at least under observation by a squad car.

Where were HIS deputies? Where was HE?

Luckily someone had the guts and knowledge to grab the 2nd magazine as he tried to reload. Want to bet she had knowledge of firearms? Want to be she's a little conservative?

Too bad this gathering didn't attract someone who was carrying. I would bet the death toll would've been less and summary justice would have been carried out on the spot.

Of course THEN the Media would be crying about 'Vigilantism' and the presence of firearms at a 'peaceful' gathering.

51 One of things for which I devoutly wish -- after a swift and complete recovery for Rep Giffords, peace for the other victims' families and rapid, painful justice for the fuckin' killer -- is that the fallout from this crime results in a fast slide to oblivion for a number of big-mouthed individuals.

The list includes (but is hardly limited to) the FBI Director, Pima County Sheriff, numerous TV anchors and news directors who have milked everything they could from the news, sanctimonious members of Congress, Osama Obama (who couldn't be bothered to notice American war dead or the Fort Hood Victims but is all over this), Moulitsas, Frum, Olbermann, Jerry Rivers and everyone else who has tried to make political hay out of a senseless crime.

happen," Yellin told Blitzer. "Even though, as you point out, this
suspect is not cooperating with investigators, so we don't know the
motive. President Obama also delivered that message, saying it's partly
the political rhetoric that led to this. So that's why we want to

77 Ancillary question; why do the crazies go after politicians so often yet don't go after anyone in the Media?

It's the Media who has lied the most, spun the most, obfuscated the most, blamed the innocent, vilified the powerless and general tried to stir up as much political sh*t as possible.

I can only hope that after Obama finishes in 2012 that the Media will have zero respect in any venue with all the credibility of some fleet street rag that always puts big-boobed women on it's front page.

They have lifted the curtain and I think people are getting the message; they're like a rabid dog. They served a purpose once but now they are a threat to the community and need to be euthanized.

82 There is an article in the sidebar by David Frum discussing marijuana use and schizophrenia. I can't tell if the comment provided with the link dismisses the idea completely or if the comment in the sidebar means that it is so obvious that drugs should be regulated that it doesn't need to be mentioned.

From Jared's videos it's obvious he is a complete loon and a person wonders how he functioned day to day. But, Jared also went to college so whatever went wrong in his head happened relatively recently. Personally, whenever I hear of a senseless violent crime I almost always assume that some type of drug was involved not as the primary cause but usually as a contributing factor.

He was batshit crazy in college too:

The school said Loughner had as many as five run-ins with campus police for “classroom and library disruptions,” and was suspended after college police discovered a YouTube video apparently created by Loughner in which he claimed the college is “illegal.” Rather than return to school, Loughner dropped out, the statement said.

One Pima Community College student, who had a poetry class with Loughner, said he would often act “wildly inappropriate.”

“One day [Loughner] started making comments about terrorism and laughing about killing the baby,” classmate Don Coorough told ABC News, referring to a discussion about abortions. “The rest of us were looking at him in shock … I thought this young man was troubled.”

Another classmate, Lydian Ali, recalled the incident as well.

“A girl had written a poem about an abortion. It was very emotional and she was teary eyed and he said; something about strapping a bomb to the fetus and making a baby bomber,” Ali said

By who? The Arizona Constitution does have a recall provision, but keep in mind you'd be relying on the good judgment of the people who elected this imbecile in the first place.

160 One of the guys that held the shooter down said he had a gun with him but didn't take it out because the guy was under control and he didn't want to frighten anybody. I don't know what he was doing while the shooter unloaded his pistol into the crowd.

Not shooting into the crowd, possibly.

162 Classic deflection. This kid is nuts and should have been institutionalized months, if not years ago.

The Sheriff knows it and did nothing about it- most likely because of the kid's family.

Now the whole thing has blown up and the loony kid has gone and killed a bunch of people and the Sheriff is trying to shift the blame to Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin in the vain hope that nobody will notice the blatant fact that all the victims would still be alive today if he had done his freaking job and gotten the kid off the street six months ago.

Craven cowardice is not something that is endearing in a law enforcement officer.

He isn't barred from buying/owning a gun unless convicted of a felony. The SOB doesn't even have a record, much less a conviction. That is one of the things the stupid gas bag of a Sheriff has to answer for and why he is lawyered up.

Provide a link to revolution rhetoric from the people you are blaming like Palin, Limbaugh, etc. Then compare the gun rhetoric on the left with the gun rhetoric on the right. Then think about what you people said about Bush for 8 years. Then look at history and see that all the anarchy and all the murders are from the left. It's not reasonable to blame constitution loving people who by the way like the rule of law to leftist asshats bent on collapsing the system a la Cloward and Piven.

He was furthermore invited to this event which could only happen if he was on a democrat or campaign mailing list.Any argument for his right-wingness is nothing more than appeal to emotion.

Didn’t our American President recently call one group of
American citizens the enemies of another group of people that live in America? "Just
words", right? This murderer was obviously off the rails and in need of
professional help. It is scary knowing what a disturbed person is capable of.
It is either ignorant and grossly irresponsible or intentional for an American
President to use incendiary words like "enemies" in a planned public
speech. Just Words? He made his Just Words speech quite some time before he supposedly "slipped up"
and called a large group of American Citizens the enemies of another large
group of people that call America home. Go ahead, give Obama a pass because he is a Lightbearer, but rip Palin et al because they are unholy Sith Lords of Just Words Propaganda.

I shouldn't be there after hours but neither should they.

So, what happens if I make it a point to drive up there and legally park on the side of the road and pass out cards that say "Your Boss is a Tool!"

The mother is on the county Board of Supervisors. Still haven't seen anything about a father.
Posted by: HeatherRadish at January 09, 2011 07:08 PM (4ucxv)

I'm speculating that his parents are divorced and he lives with his mother and her live-in girlfriend.

Can't very well sell that as a "Straight up Tea-Bagging Racist" now can we?

Although it would go a long way towards explaining his actual behavior and his, you know, being crazy.

Look for a post by 'Jayhawker' and clink on the link in his post....I can't make it out from the screen shot but he seems to be saying that Giffords youtube page subscribed to Classitup10 sometime in the past month.

329 "In most States the Governor or other concerned officials can bring action in the State courts to have him removed."

I know that's the case here in Florida, but I searched the Arizona Constitution for something like that earlier and came up with nothing. Looking at the Arizona Revised Statutes now, county and precinct officers are subject to removal "for
wilful or corrupt misconduct in office" by the county grand jury, which in effect means by the county attorney, the elected prosecutor that other states call the district attorney or state attorney.

The only thing I already know about Pima County Attorney Barbara LaWall is that she was elected by the same collection of geniuses who elected Dupnik, so good luck with that.

I don't think the father of the little girl said that.
Someone who was at the shooting maybe or Giffords father said some
things about the Tea Party but not the little girl's father.

It was Giffords' father.

It's either devolve to their level or let them get away with this...Which do you prefer?

When
you're sitting in a federal prison for the crime of typing about
defeating an incumbent on the internets (with the special hate crimes
modifier, 'cause you were talking about a sitting member of Congress),
at least you can comfort yourself with the knowledge that you did not
devolve. (Sounds like something proggs pat themselves on the back over,
doesn't it?..."I'm so much more better than those knuckle-dragging
semi-literate cousin-humping gun-fetishing teabaggers because I'm more
evolved!")

410 Interesting comment on WaPo story, saying the guy's facebook/videos were
more in line with someone named David Wynn Miller, who sounds like a
fruitcake extroardinaire, with rules of language and grammar that
resonate a bit.

Where I live in the gawdawful batshit crazy San Francisco Bay Area, this David Wynn Miller guy is being repeatedly described by liberal commenters as being a, quote, "Tea Party favorite".

First time in my entire life I had ever heard of this Miller clown was yesterday when the liberals dredged him up, in an attempt to play Five Degrees of Sarah Palin after the tragedy, to wit:

Giffords->Shooter->Miller->Tea Party->Palin.

Had any of the rest of you ever heard of him before this?

422 Loughner killed six people, one of them a nine year old girl, and yet
he didn't even make sure the primary target was dead. Several others were wounded. It sounds to me that Loughner was looking for a reason to kill lots of people and Giffords was
unlucky to be his representative. Jared may have had a specific reason to choose Giffords but it's pretty clear to me that he enjoyed the shooting at lots and lots of people part more than he wanted to just shoot at Giffords.

IMHO what we need can be described by two words:

Opposition Research

And by "opposition" I mean MFM personalities. Brian Williams, Katie Couric, Bob Schieffer, that fat tingly bastard, the whole lot of them.

Find out every embarassing fact- every nasty divorce, every mistress, every DUI, every missed tax payment, every adverse credit report, every off-color remark, every men's room liaison- all of it. Collect every sound bite, photo, and video clip.

Publish them on the internet, and sell them- the NBC nasties to ABC and CBS, the CBS nasties to ABC and NBC, the ABC nasties to NBC and CBS, and the CNN and NBC nasties to everybody- including the National Enquirer.

Spill their blood in the water and watch the feeding frenzy ensue- they won't be able to resist.

And that feeding frenzy will completely de-legitimize them in the eyes of the public- for a time anyway.

Lather, rinse, repeat until they are completely marginalized.

430 414 torquewrench, never heard of him till I saw him mentioned on Washington Post site today.

His wiki page is sparse, but this caught my eye about it:

"On April 6, 1988, Miller invented what he calls the Mathematical Interface for Language or Quantum-Math-Communications and Language[7] or Correct-Language.[8] According to Miller, his language is "for the stopping-claims of the Theft, Cheating, Fraud, Slavery and War."[7] Some people have used features of Miller's language in attempts to defend themselves in courts of law."
and
"Miller says the people who do not use Truth-Language are in Fiction = no fact."
and
"Miller says that the people who use Truth-language are in the right."
and
"the genesis of Truth-language was when he "turned Hawaii into a verb" and showed "how a preposition is needed to certify a noun."
"Conscience dreaming" may not be too far afield, if one invents currencies too.

He's apparently a coast to coast meme, but what kind?

Yes, they are all post-modernists who don't care about logic. However, how about trying to bypass them and bringing the message to the people? Flood the airwaves, email channels, Facebook, and whatever else we have at our disposal.

As for Congress, I'll give it until Tuesday. Tomorrow they are taking some votes on Giffords and things. But as far as I know, they are not canceling the agenda or walking any previous proposals back; in fact, a few said the exact opposite.* The ObamaCare vote will be the most telling issue in all this.

*Didn't catch all of them.

How many times have we seen false stories that are intended to anger us into moving away from them? Saw some of the same today, where the remarks of some on the talk shows wasn't even reported. They put-out what they could spin, but not much else. If we break into splintered factions, it just shows we believed the meme. I think it might be a good idea to send some assertive yet not aggressive messages to Congress, to praise them for their efforts so far and to remind them of what lies ahead, that we will hold their feet to the fire. People of all stripes didn't elect this Congress just so it could collapse due to a loony like Loughner.

She said the two guys who tackled the guy took his gun away from him.

If the left can blame Sarah Palin for the act of a "liberal, very left-wing" pothead who favorited a film of a flag burning in "Terrorist America" and described the Communist Manifesto as one of his favorite books before shooting a judge nominated by George H.W. Bush and a pro-SecondAmendment Congresswoman who was hated by the left, then the left will never be blamed for anything.

To be clear, if you're using this event to criticize the "rhetoric" of Mrs. Palin or others with whom you disagree, then you're either: (a) asserting a connection between the "rhetoric" and the shooting, which based on evidence to date would be what we call a vicious lie; or (b) you're not, in which case you're just seizing on a tragedy to try to score unrelated political points, which is contemptible. Which is it?

532 Okay, I left to deal with real life about 200 comments ago. Before I get caught up, though, I have an observation and a very real, that is, no sarc, question as to why it is.

The blogs all over the left and right are making the exact same accusations; namely, that the other side wasted no time spinning the AZ tragedy for political gain. And each side has links to back up their claims.

Are they both correct? Why or why not? And how would anyone know who is right without tracking every single public comment and tracking a timeline to see who spoke first? Or is it whose comment is published first?

See what I'm trying to ask here? Not about history and patterns, because I know what they show, but about this or any other particular incident.

Thanks for any insight/opinions.

I remember when the Secret Service came out and had to correct the media and say they were not receiving more than average threats on obama. Control to the media mem of the month.
Everytime someone on the left talks about rhetoric and how its causing this, I just bring up the movie and books about assassinating president bush. Anyone else freaking remember that? A fictional movie was made about killing bush and it got good coverage from the left. That's no big deal, but Palin saying we need to "target her district"". That's terrorism. New rule, any republican that might run against a democratic held seat is an act of adovation of terrorism.
CNN is fucking killing me. Now they've started doing stories based off of that retarded Sheriff's statement.They just had a story that had the intro, "The._____ said that Arizona is a mecca of bigotry, is that true? We'll look into it"/

transparent attempt to intimidate and silence the left's political
opponents. If it weren't for the fact that the brain-dead fiddy-two
percenters might buy this load of crap, it would be laughable because
it's so friggin' clumsy. I fully expect the next talking point to come

543 Representative Bob Brady of Pennsylvania told The Caucus he plans to introduce a bill that would ban symbols like that now-infamous campaign crosshair map.
"You can't threaten the president with a bullseye or a crosshair," Mr. Brady, a Democrat, said, and his measure would make it a crime to do so to a member of Congress or federal employee, as well.
Asked if he believed the map incited the gunman in Tucson, he replied, "I don't know what's in that nut's head. I would rather be safe than sorry."
He continued, "This is not a wakeup call. This is a major alarm going off. We need to be more civil with each other. We need to tone down this rhetoric."

assemble for circular firing squad now!"

Still not getting it, are you? If the Republicans/Tea Party are unwilling to speak out about this nation-wide smear campaign, it means only two things:

1. They are bought off by the Big Government machine.
2. They are cowards running scared.

Either way, we are living in a one party oligarchy, and it's over, as far as America (the one we used to read about in history books) is concerned. All elections are officially meaningless dog and pony shows. Why would I ever fight for them if they never fight for me or themselves?

Whats the latest shit, targeting the rich, and they marched whole fucking mobs and CEO lawns. Not to mention a fucking wannabe tin pot who affirmative actioned his silly worthless ass into the white house who still is dividing the country with his fucking strawman and fingerpointing.

What was that that happened a few years ago when war protests were the rage? Oh burning images of bush, burning the fucking flag, saying they support the troops when they shoot their officers, etc. Yeah , and then those 2-3 little scumbags jumped that disabled vet on crutches at the concert and beat him to the ground while kicking him. Remember that?

Fuck the left, fuck them where they breath.

Now they are pulling the same fucking shit only now they are putting palin and the tea party in danger. Personally, I couldn't give a fucking rats's ass what level we stoop to.

(Granted, the means for pulling an elected Sheriff off a case must be extremely limited--that's why they're elected instead of appointed--but overwhelming popular sentiment might be used to force him to recuse himself from the case.)

If only. It's worse because he's now a political activist. All of his investigation, whatever it is, will be biased to a fault. He's blinding himself to whatever facts are before him and, perhaps worse, affecting the investigation of subordinates.

This man should not remain in charge of this investigation. I assert without hyperbole that this man cannot carry out justice and maintain the peace on this case. He may or may not be competent. He surely isn't qualified anymore to further this investigation.

600 Loughner was frustrated with the Bush Admin. Throws another wrench into the narrative. Also discusses his "fixation" with Giffords:

That interest might have triggered Mr. Loughner’s first meeting with Ms.
Giffords in 2007. Mr. Loughner said he asked the lawmaker, “How do you
know words mean anything?” recalled Mr. Montanaro. He said Mr. Loughner
was “aggravated” when Ms. Giffords, after pausing for a couple of
seconds, “responded to him in Spanish and moved on with the meeting.”

ground. I'm guessing the parents are dealing with the funeral
arrangements which are hard renough to deal with even when someone dies
somewhat expectedly, like an elderly parent. But I imagine it is
infinitely worse when it is your child, so unexpectedley. I would be a
fucking mess. There is no way I could do an interview.

You can't say what you'd do in a time of grief like that. I'd want to make sure my daughter's story was told, so I understand it. The woman was obviously crushed with grief, if you listened to the interview.

Having been part of the beast once upon a time--it is now almost completely unwatchable to me. They have no moral compass, can't or won't divine news from fluff, engage in scaremongering about remote threats while ignoring immediate and real dangers and show no intellectual curiosity beyond what's in the next segment.

At least most business, engineering and hard science schools are still somewhat objective. Communications, journalism and the liberal arts have so contaminated critical thinking and objectivity that the media as a whole is beyond redemption. My favorite exercise is to query my liberal friends with the following question: Tell me one thing Rush Limbaugh has ever been wrong about in his stated opinions. When the response includes "oxycotin" I know I have them.

651 You know, every time something like this happens, the left doesn't wait one second before they begin dancing all over the graves of the dead and waving their body parts around to justify whatever the hell personal and political agenda they have, and if anybody objects it's all "how DARE you defend yourself!"

Every time I think the left couldn't be more anathema to me, they make it worse.

Seriously, I'm done. There's nothing they can do to be taken seriously by me as anything other than an existential (political) threat, if only through their sheer childish irrationality. And when I say "left" I mean ANYONE on this "blame everyone else" list, including the reporters and that carpet-chewing police chief.

I seriously have come to the conclusion that at least a third of ANY population is mentally ill, and there's probably nothing that can be done about it. I have run through every idea I can think of about how to cancel the insanity, and nothing even comes close to working.

The event itself is enough to make you sick, but the left's reaction is almost worse. And the right is just trying to be polite about it, you can't "just" be polite with children having a temper tantrum, and the left have been having a temper tantrum since long before I was born.

But that child is now truly out of control, and I don't know how to bring peace back to the house.

All intelligent human beings get that things like drawn maps with cross hairs on them understand that the crosshairs are not metaphors for violence. They a way to focus action, money, and concentration in the same way that an actual rifle scope does. Leftest, such as Dr. Ron Chusid, a democratic shill for Obamacare, is almost giddy over the shooting of Ms. Gillfords. To him, the actual human lives lost are of little real concern. The important thing is the opportunity to smear a right-center country w/guilt by association. To him and his fellow travelers, this is anything but a tragedy -- the guy is garbage, really. He's also terrified of Palin's popularity because it's such a threat to power hungry leftest liberals.

No, because the Left and its willing accomplices in the mainstream media would just respond by saying that it doesn't matter what the symbols actually were, just what the shooter perceived them to be (despite their not being any evidence the shooter ever even saw the SarahPAC "targeting" map).

Hate to break this to you but I've had access to Andy McCarthy's posts on a group blog way longer than April of 2010.

One of these days though, either the AP or the SPLC are going to catch on and I will have no choice but to burn a cross on some lawn or lynch an innocent man just to prove my racist bone fides.

Loved this quote:

When he also warned that “free speech is free speech but it’s not without consequences,”

I remember countless times trying to make that point to libs about the Iraq war, telling them that their irresponsible blithering was putting our troops and Iraqi civilians at risk, and prolonging the war. But no, they kept telling me I was squelching their free speech.

But now...

675 Merovign, Bond Villain@658,

The turning point for me was the Paul Wellstone (of MN) funeral and its subsequent politicization. I knew the Leftist narrative had been with us for decades, but that moment was so crass and exploitative - and so patently so - that to get political news from the MFM any further would be stupid. That was the moment for me when I knew the media had jumped the shark the highest. It was surreal.

I quit watching the MFM over a decade ago now. The bias and tabloid-ish nature made it intolerable. However, one still needs the news but the press is even more liberal than the monopoly of thought that is/was on-air media. So, one is pretty much resigned to cable news and the internet (and radio) if one prefers a less liberal or even-keeled analysis and commentary of news. The problem is that cable news operates under the assumption that most viewers have the attention span of a flea (which, sadly, might be true).

Fortunately, those other avenues have opened despite their drawbacks. The MFM will carry on like it always has. Serious people will continue to abandon it. Not all people are serious people. Not all people will continue to abandon it. So that's where we are: some proportion of the public will remain ignorant and there's not a thing anyone can do about it other than to abandon those venues and educate those in one's own circle of contacts.

676 Do you think this guy might have had a stalker-crush on Giffords? Is that something schizophrenics get caught up in? It seems important that he saved a 2007 letter from her office 2007 and locked it up in that safe to be found later.

About 15-20 years ago, another guy in Arizona had a stalker/crush on one of the news babes in Phoenix..

Jineane Ford was the news chick.

Janine Ford for NBC 12, I'm pretty sure. He would send her notes saying crap like, "Why did you wear brown today? You know I hate brown!"

So it's not out of the realm of possibility.

This is from the Yahoo article:
He frequently used "if-then" constructions in making nonsensical
arguments. For instance: "If the living space is able to maintain the
crews life at a temperature of -454F then the human body is alive in the
NASA Space Shuttle. The human body isn't alive in the NASA Space
Shuttle. Thus, the living space isn't able to maintain the crews life at
a temperature of -454F."

The millions who watch Fox News do so precisely because it offers a wide range of views.

funky smell a sponge gets when it gets left in the sink - while
simultaneously insisting that she's not smart enough to pour piss out of

Well that's been pretty much par for the course for any nationally known Republican since Eisenhower, I believe.

Me?

I have long been convinced that I am a giant ignoramus.

I only joined the Republican Party to up my evil master-mind skills.

He wrote this at 10:00:47 AM PST today. I'd surely like to take that bet. It's a nonapology.

695 It use to be said (still is?) that the conservatives think liberals are stupid, while liberals think that conservatives are evil. Some years ago I decided that anyone with a functioning brain has a moral obligation to not be an idiot. And so I now consider liberals to be stupid to the point of being evil, as they are willfully stupid. And this episode confirms my hypothesis.

If he's not on leave TOMORROW, his county is run by morons.

701 Mistrust of government was Loughner's defining conviction, the friends said. He believed the U.S. government was behind 9/11, and worried that governments were maneuvering to create a unified monetary system ("a New World Order currency" one friend said) so that social elites and bureaucrats could control the rest of the world.

705 Sheriff Dupkin (lead investigator) left the crime scene open for three hours before "securing" it. Obama sent FBI Chief Muller to oversee the investigation.

Yes, Dupkin's record is replete with refusals to enforce law.

Last year's story around Pima County outskirts of Tucson spilled the Mexican drug cartel beans from their fortresses built on high ground. They shoot US law enforcement along with anyone else wandering into their cross hairs.

Where's the National Guard protecting AZ? This isn't "just" an illegal immigrant crossing problem with ensuing crime.

Congressional knee-jerk reaction is to outlaw firearms and ammunition, never wasting a crisis to subjugate the citizenry while refusing to fulfill core Constitutional duties.

706 Harsh rhetoric has nothing to do with this incident. This murderer is a psychopath and his actions have nothing to do with legitimate political dissent in this country. Naturally, the left is attempting to establish a connection between him and the nation's disgust for their fiscal and social policies but it will not work. This killer is an unmitigated nut and no amount of laws that restrict gun ownership or quell free speech and political dissent will preclude another incident of this type. Those that equate this act with the Tea Party, Sarah Palin and other legitimate and necessary political activists are also somewhat disturbed and potentially dangerous to a free society . . . and that includes this whack job of a Sheriff.

Attending Sabo Thomas making classes will surely allow you to learn how to make your personal jewellery. Nonetheless, if you are like attending classes on jewellery making could be more of a hindrance for you than an edge; you shouldn't hesitate to review on your own.When you will decide to look at up Thoma Sabo Charms jewellery producing as a significant hobby, with all the goal of making money from the jawhorse, one of many questions that would probably pop Thomas Sabo Charm in your head is actually you ought to require a class on jewellery making.
