The establishment media campaign to crassly exploit the tragic Arizona shootings as a way to bludgeon the First Amendment and silence critics of the Obama administration has failed spectacularly, with even a majority of Democrats telling a CBS poll that “violent political rhetoric” was not to blame for the actions of a mentally disturbed madman.

A CBS News nationwide telephone poll found that, “57 percent of respondents said the harsh political tone had nothing to do with the shooting, compared to 32 percent who felt it did.”
Even a majority of Democrats say that political rhetoric had nothing to do with the shooting.
“Among Democrats 49 percent placed no blame on the heated political tone against 42 percent who did. Among independents the split was 56 percent to 33 percent, CBS said.”
Amongst Republican voters, just 19 per cent blamed political rhetoric for the massacre, versus 69 per cent who rejected such a link.

Your point is made nil by the fact that these images you posted aren't directly related to a spokesperson with gun in hand who has made this kinda of imagery and wording here entire shtick. You can not string together a history for these few examples. I can post twice as many examples coming from this one woman in the last year than you have digging 6 years in the past.

What people fail to realize is that the PAC had the targets as an advertisement. Nothing more. Its the MSM whom is responsible for trying to play the blame game. Just laughable at this point?

It's coming across as a stealth blame, where people say yes lets all get along, but she is still to blame.
