it's sad what the shooting has become

In reaction to the shooting and frustration of the coverage of it I refused to watch the president's speech from last week. I frankly needed a break from it. so hare's my comments based on what I heard from various news/entertainment sources.
The first thing it was a necessary speech and the president did what he had to do. The tribute to the victims individually was nice and needed after all most of the coverage was about the one injured congressmen Mrs. Gifford's and not the people that actually died. That understandable of coarse but still sad. The call to tamp down the rhetoric was all right but a little self serving, whenever a President says lets be calmer nicer in our discourse it seems a little like a lecture. Maybe it's needed but that's still something that's a personal decision. The president certainly gets a passing grade for mentioning that nobody on either side of the political spectrum caused the shootings but he could have went further but did not, saying to try and make hay from a shooting by blaming Rush and Sarah is sick.
The other thing is the atmosphere in the hall was not quiet enough for a memorial and I wish it had been done at a church and not at a university which gave it a carnival atmosphere. The president can't do anything about that but I wish the office could help him rise above the personal celebrity he has attained.
The speech came a little to late to do much good for him and the country, because when one side accuses the other of creating the atmosphere that perpetuated the shooting Republicans rightly see that as trampling down on political speech and we fight back they fight back and it's a political food fight. Bill Mahr's call to use the shooting to look as an opportunity to re-examine Glen beck and Rush Limbaugh'is personal to me because they clearly did not cause this and for the media to cast assperitions on them first and then get the story later is a little scary because if Rush and Glenn were ever to be totally discredited they would be the only providers of information and nobody would keep them honest. Everything is political now everyone has an agenda it's sad that the left and the Puma sheriff blamed politics for this once he did that the media ran with the story and everybody went to their rhetorical battle stations no one likes to be called to murder one that happens the President's speech just fades into the background like snow on the TV set. It's then that it's not just politics to us it's then that it becomes libelous and people get irrational and the Media creates the anger and frustration they are said to despise. It's a shame nothing rises above politics anymore not even a shooting!

just a sicko

Happy new year to the few people that read this: The gaberalle Giffords tragedy is just another example of how the mainstream still has very powerful fangs. The shoot and killing of 6 people and the wounding of many others like the Rebbecca Shaffer killing of 1987 was the act of a lone nut with satanic leanings. This killings had nothing to due with immigration Health Care reform Sarah Palin or Rush Limbaugh. He was stalking the congresswomen since 2003 and members of her staff had logged into his Utube Account which suggests you they were worried about him for a while . He was a troubled men who told to leave Uama community college after they called the police on him several times. This is all information compiled through listening to several hours of talk radio and I believe can be be checked online. Please e But of coarse the media will have you believe he was frustrated at the way this country was being run hurt talk radio and flipped. The truth is he more then likely was truly obsessed with Mrs Gifferod's could not have her and was tolled be the voices in his own head to shoot her. That's my opinion of coarse but it definitely is more accurate then blaming Rush.
45 percent the country is worried that the opposition to he president will become violent, why is that because they have been told that the majority of the tea Party is Racist and therefore will be more likely to harm the President. The shooting as horrible as it was is not political in any way and should not be used as a political football to harm either side. The media speculated on a motive before they new the facts and by doing so they make there own story which is the same reason why Sarah Palin most likely won't run for President the media has made her a joke, she contributed to it of coarse but she is such a polarizing figure she won't run now.
The point is that the shooting like everything is political now and that's a shame. The media should know better we all should everybody needs to chill out and think for ourselves, and quit reading listen to people who want to more of the shooting then it is just a horrible act of a sick nut.
