Branding a memorial service? Really?

And the crow jeering? Seemed like it was a second away rom Wellstone Funeral redux.

Like clockwork - the media goes into jizz mode. Pathetic.

Facing Challenge, Obama Returns to Unity Theme (Gov. Brewer Receives 'Boos' at Pep Rally)
NY Times ^ | 12 Jan 2011 | ADAM NAGOURNEY

TUCSON — When President Obama took the stage here Wednesday to address a community — and a nation — traumatized by Saturday’s killings, it invited comparisons to President George W. Bush’s speech to the nation after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and the memorial service President Bill Clinton led after the bombing of a federal office building killed 168 people in Oklahoma City in 1995 . . .

-snip-

Even as it began, some conservative commentators were posting comments criticizing the memorial service for being overly partisan and more like a pep rally, and there were some boos in the hall when Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican, spoke. Those reactions would have been hard to imagine, say, in the days after the Oklahoma City bombing.

Well I guess the problem would be that it takes a bunch of people getting shot and killed before all of the sudden we need to work together. Never hear anything about working together when Dems are in control, only occurs when the reps get in power.

As to the end game, get everyone worked up, then the we need to work to together propaganda, so we take away more of your rights with your approval.

BiPartisan only means the GOP has to give away the store.

When the Dems are in power the message is "STFU - we won"

It seems everything goes right over your head, you concentrate on the T-shirt. There is a bigger picture and end game with all of this.

I would like to know why the left wants to make a big deal of Palin's map.

Especially when in 2004 they did this:

Quote from: dario73 on January 10, 2011, 08:44:40 AM

We took screenshots in case Markos tries to hurriedly scrub his site if incriminating posts like he did yesterday (we have this saved page, too):

Also check out Kos’s “target” list (on which Giffords was listed). If we’re going to play the asinine game of metaphorical maps, we can go tit-for-tat all day.

Also check out the Democrat Leadership Committee target list, again, on which Giffords was listed.

So much for Palin being the only one with "targets" on her maps.

Quote from: dario73 on January 10, 2011, 08:50:49 AM

This online article was back in March of 2010. Showing how stupid Democrats were for criticizing Palin when they themselves did the following back in 2004:

Democratic Leadership Committe TARGET list:

Each one of those red targets represents a “Targeted Republican” like this one:

There’s even a helpful legend that makes it clear that’s precisely what the little red targets represent:

Yeah I know this is going in SAMSON territory

   " MARK PENN: Cabinets don’t really sell things. The President himself has to reconnect with the people. Remember, President Clinton reconnected through Oklahoma, right?…

   CHRIS MATTHEWS: Yeah, because of the bombing down there…

   MARK PENN: …And President right now, he seems removed. It wasn’t until that speech that he really clicked with the American public. Obama needs a similar kind of happening.

   CHRIS MATTHEWS: You think words are enough for Obama at this point?

   MARK PENN: No. He’s gotta get some results. But words will work, I think, if he finds that right moment."

Strange isn't it

Perhaps if you actually paid attention to things you would see all the knee jerk legislation that is being introduced. So whats the end game? Take away more of your rights while you stand there and say much ado about nothing.

Really 333 this is what you complain about? I think the t-shirts were fine it's not like it had re-elect Obama 2012 on it is it? I think it was a great idea to give somebody something to take home and remember it by i'm all for it if it helps these people heal and move forward aren't you?

Jeering is unnecessary and i'm glad it was only a minority of those in attendance, however i can't help but think you would take any opportunity to jeer obama so really those that jeered are the lefts version of you, crazy, unstable and unable to contain their emotions when needed.
