So let me get this straight.
Twenty people were gunned down at a supermarket in Arizona on Saturday. Six were killed, including a nine-year-old girl. Fourteen others were wounded, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was the main target of the attack, and who was shot through the head. She is currently lying in a hospital bed with half of her skull removed because brain swelling from her bullet wound could kill her.
Twenty people shot.
Six killed.
Fourteen wounded.
And guess what?
It appears Sarah Palin is the principal victim of the shooting.
No, really.
Don't believe me? Watch the video she posted to her Facebook page. There she sits, in front of a fireplace and beside an American flag like some cruel joke on Franklin Delano Roosevelt, wreathing herself in pity because people are coming to the conclusion that politicians like her - the ones who have spent the last two years talking about guns and civil war and reloading and such - should bear some of the blame for what happened in Arizona.
How on Earth could anyone come to such an irresponsible and reprehensible conclusion?
As usual, Pitt writes an overly long screed that is predictable and snooze worthy as always. I wouldn't waste my time bringing it all over. I wonder what % of his income comes from writing vs the Bouncer job???? :confused::D
