Left really hates it when people respond to their attack narrative
Image via Wikipedia...There are some real crazy people in this world and then there is the left made crazy every time Sarah Palin says anything. They can call her complicit in mass murder and she is supposed to apologize? What kind of crazy talk is that? To borrow another Jewish phrase that takes a lot of chutzpah.
A pitch perfect response, both from the heart and smart. Naturally, that then caused the Left to lose whatever tenuous grip they had left on reality. See, Sarah Palin was bad for being “silent and on the lam” last night. But, today, she is super icky for responding and not remaining silent. After being accused for days of having “blood on her hands” and of being responsible for the acts of a madman. Who, incidentally, apparently did not even watch nor listen to the news and, therefore, likely did not even have any knowledge of the supposedly evil cross-hairs graphic. Or anything else for that matter. It was clear almost immediately that the left was actually upset because her response was exactly correct. Based not just on emotion – actual heartfelt emotion – but on facts and reason. Pesky old reason! That does not suit. The new “in” thing is complete fabrications, mixed with a healthy dose of utter delusion. Therefore, the smears continued, predictably.
First came speculation from Ben Smith at Politico, and others, that Sarah Palin was ‘stirring the pot” with the use of the phrase blood libel and that the phrase must have been fed to her by someone who “got” the context. Oh, no, that dum-dum rube obviously doesn’t know the historical context and just somehow randomly came up with that phrase while prattling inanely and brushing her hair, soon to be distracted by something shiny. History? That’s for boys! She was also decried for the use of the phrase itself, even though it’s been used many times by others and is a common phraseology in the political world. It is also absolutely accurate in this instance.
Next came Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) in a desperate act of projection. He said:
“You know, Sarah Palin just can’t seem to get it, on any front. I think she’s an attractive person, she is articulate,” Clyburn said on the Bill Press radio show, according to The Hill. “But I think intellectually, she seems not to be able to understand what’s going on here.”I’d say it was a case of the pot calling the kettle black, but I”m sure that would be racist and political “hate speech”. Clyburn is good at inventing racist acts as well. Unfortunately, he is not intelligent enough to understand that lies are easily proven as lies when there are large groups of people around, all with some form of video capturing devices. Next came Adam Serwer, at the Washington Post who wrote the following drivel:
Now, mere days after the incident, with six people dead and Giffords still recovering, Palin is making herself the center of attention. It might please the audience for conservative talk radio or Fox News, but most people will be disgusted. As well they should be.How does Serwer, and others like him, sleep at night? And what color is the sky in their deranged world? Palin is making herself the center of attention? How dare she respond to continuous and constant claims that she be held responsible for mass murder! Who does she think she is? And how dare she defend innocent people who are also being accused of fomenting a “climate of hate” – by merely voicing their thoughts and opinions – so pervasive that madmen bear no responsibility for their own actions. The depth and stench of the manure the Left is shoveling is astounding. They made Sarah Palin the center of attention by attempting to blame her, on the backs of the dead, solely in a demented attempt to score political points.
More followed. She was also demonized for not being apologetic by the LA Times in an article with the headline “Sarah Palin unapologetic after criticism related to Arizona shootings“. “Criticism” must be the Newspeak way to say disgusting demonization. Further, why should she apologize? There is one person responsible for the murderous rampage in Tucson and that is Jared Loughner. She was accused of “sullying” the nation with her very existence. Others claimed she has decided that she is one of the victims of the Tucson shooting.
...
I still believe that all the talk about "blood libel" was the left's way of distracting from the facts of their libel of Sarah Palin. They definitely did not want to remind people of that. It is better to manufacture a controversy to get people talking about something other than their own misconduct.
