Murder in Arizona and the Left's Despicable Exploitation of It
A phenomenal "talking points" from O'Reilly:
And some excellent commentary at Instapundit, here and here.
Anyone think that the Left's temper tantrum has run its course? Increasingly it seems that the adults keep having to suffer these childish tantrums because the Left just is not getting what it wants. I have stated before that one of the functions Conservatives serve is to hold off the excesses of these people until common sense, facts, et al finally take hold. The Left knows that so they spend a lot of time trying to co opt young adults with little experience in life. Trying to convince them that they know more than people who are more experienced in life. It is also why one of the underlying tenets of Leftism is to get rid of seniors. "Never trust anyone over thirty" was based on this idea. If there is one good thing that comes out of the Left's folly here it will be their increasing alienation of more and more people to the point that little the Left says or does will be of any value to any thinking person. I would posit that the last thing the Left wants is to hold hearings in the House on violent language or hate speech since its whole demeanor is steeped in it to the point it almost defines them. It is about time that some of these people who seem to have "arrested development" grow up.
