The charlatans' response to the Tucson tragedy

George Will  "Three days before Tucson, Howard Dean explained that the Tea Party movement is "the last gasp of the generation that has trouble with diversity." Rising to the challenge of lowering his reputation and the tone of public discourse, Dean smeared Tea Partyers as racists: They oppose Obama's agenda, Obama is African American, ergo . . .
"Let us hope that Dean is the last gasp of the generation of liberals whose default position in any argument is to indict opponents as racists. This McCarthyism of the left - devoid of intellectual content, unsupported by data - is a mental tic, not an idea but a tactic for avoiding engagement with ideas. It expresses limitless contempt for the American people, who have reciprocated by reducing liberalism to its current characteristics of electoral weakness and bad sociology. "

ONE HAND ... OVER-PLAYED "But the left has no real choice here but to push the attack ... to carry on. Polls show that 57% of the American people aren't buying it, but they'll carry on because they have no way out right now. Soon this latest onslaught against talk radio will die down, and the leftists will sharpen their weapons for the next assault ... just waiting for the next tragedy to exploit. " Neal Boortz

A Horrid Crime, a Dishonest Debate "The same Left that embraces terrorist Bill Ayers seeks a tactical victory in Tucson." Andy McCarthy

The Extreme Rhetoric about Extreme Rhetoric "But this debate about the “tone” of American politics is ideologically unidirectional, designed not to elevate debate but to vilify a political enemy. The call for calm—with its frequent invocations of Tea Party “fascism”—is stupid partisan politics dressed up as incoherent moral politics."
Nate Beeler

















Bozell Column: Liberal Sickos Exploit a Rampage  "This flood of slanderous sludge is designed for nakedly political benefit: to paint a permanent black mark on conservatives as accessories to murder, and criminalize any expression of conservatism as a dangerous anti-government conspiracy.
"Happily, after a few broadcasts of this vomit, CBS pollsters found 57 percent of Americans questioned on Sunday and Monday didn’t accept the notion that the country’s “harsh political tone” had anything to do with the Tucson rampage."  More posts"

A solemn presidential duty awaits Obama in Tucson Via The Freedomist. Perhaps he will address the role of the left in poisoning discourse in the nation.
