— SPADES-OF: ACE IS =SINGULAR-VERB, ARE = PLURAL-VERB ~10-~JANUARY-~2010-NOW-TIME
>>>REMARK/NONEXECUTABLE: Since David Corn has outed my secret admiration of HUMAN-DESIGNATE DAVID-WYNN: MILLER, I will drop the pretense of the VOID-WAR of having never MIND-SPACE heard of him, and begin emulating my DEFINE FUNCTION: LIBERATE (RECURSIVE) TRUTH BRAIN-HERO [SEE UPDATES TO POST, TIME: PRIOR; REFERENT: NOW-TIME].
BEGIN: EXCERPT FROM HUMAN DESIGNATE THIESSEN: MARC.
Left-wing bloggers and commentators blamed the attack on Tea Party favorite Sarah Palin because she had "targeted" Giffords for defeat during the 2010 elections. The New York Daily News published a column headlined "Rep. Gabrielle Giffords' blood is on Sarah Palin's hands after putting cross hair over district." And an hour after Giffords was shot, Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas actually tweeted: "Mission accomplished, Sarah Palin." He conveniently failed to mention that his Daily Kos had put a "bull's eye" (their words) on Giffords in 2008 - including her on a list of centrist Democrats who should be "targeted" in Democratic primaries. Mission accomplished, Markos?
RECALL FUNCTION "SPOT;" DEFINE VALUE="ON."
Giffords's Arizona colleague, Rep. Raul Grijalva, said the Tea Party was responsible because "[When] you stoke these flames, and you go to public meetings and you scream at the elected officials, you threaten them - you make us expendable you make us part of the cannon fodder. . . . Something's going to happen." Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.) echoed this sentiment, declaring, "America must not tolerate . . . inflammatory rhetoric that incites political violence." And Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik blamed the attack on the "vitriol that comes out of certain mouths about tearing down the government. The anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on in this country is getting to be outrageous." Who, exactly, is Sheriff Dupnik accusing of hatred and bigotry? And why is it acceptable to condemn vitriol in politics while contributing to it in the same breath? This is what passes for restoring civility to our nation's discourse?
>>>REM: BOOYAH SUBCLASSIFICATION WAHOO.
What is really outrageous is how quickly so many jumped at the opportunity to politicize this tragic shooting - blaming the Tea Party and conservative political rhetoric without a shred of evidence to back those claims. Police are still investigating the alleged shooter, Jared Lee Loughner, but it is clear he is a deeply disturbed young man. He had recently been suspended by Tucson's Pima Community College until he obtained a doctor's certification that "in the opinion of a mental health professional, his presence at the College does not present a danger to himself or others." Students had warned that he might show up in class with a gun. Loughner was rejected by the U.S. Army when he tried to enlist. In a bizarre YouTube rant, he declared: "The government is implying mind control and brainwash on the people by controlling grammar." Government brainwashing through grammar control is not exactly a driving issue for the Tea Party. Conservatives are no more responsible for Loughner's attempted assassination of Giffords than liberals were for John Hinckley Jr.'s attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan.
DESIGNATE SOVEREIGN HUMAN="RONALD-WILSON: REGAN;" SUB. "RONALDUS MAGUS;" STATUS: BEYOND THE MEAT-VEIL.
On Sunday, the New York Times published a front-page story, "Bloodshed Puts New Focus on Vitriol in Politics." Nowhere did it mention the vitriol hurled at Tea Party activists, who are routinely derided to as "tea baggers" and racists, and now stand accused of incitement to murder. If you want an example of the lack of civility plaguing our political discourse, look no further than this weekend's shameful efforts to use this tragedy to demonize the Tea Party.
IMPERATIVE-VERB COMPARE (SUBROUTINE CONTRAST) TO DESIGNATE-HUMAN "F-GEORGE:WILL" CLASSIFICATION RELATED-MEDIA.
The craving is for banishing randomness and the inexplicable from human experience. Time was, the gods were useful. What is thunder? The gods are angry. Polytheism was explanatory. People postulated causations.And still do. Hence: The Tucson shooter was (pick your verb) provoked, triggered, unhinged by today's (pick your noun) rhetoric, vitriol, extremism, "climate of hate."
Demystification of the world opened the way for real science, including the social sciences. And for a modern characteristic. And for charlatans.
...Now we have explainers. They came into vogue with the murder of President Kennedy. They explained why the "real" culprit was not a self-described Marxist who had moved to Moscow, then returned to support Castro. No, the culprit was a "climate of hate" in conservative Dallas, the "paranoid style" of American (conservative) politics, or some other national sickness resulting from insufficient liberalism.
Last year, New York Times columnist Charles Blow explained that "the optics must be irritating" to conservatives: Barack Obama is black, Nancy Pelosi is female, Rep. Barney Frank is gay, Rep. Anthony Weiner (an unimportant Democrat, listed to serve Blow's purposes) is Jewish. "It's enough," Blow said, "to make a good old boy go crazy." The Times, which after the Tucson shooting said that "many on the right" are guilty of "demonizing" people and of exploiting "arguments of division," apparently was comfortable with Blow's insinuation that conservatives are misogynistic, homophobic, racist anti-Semites.

the Left’s sudden talk about incendiary political rhetoric in the wake of the Arizona shooting isn’t really about political rhetoric at all. It’s about the real-world failure of leftist policies everywhere—the bankrupting of nations and states by greedy unions and unfundable social programs, the destruction of inner cities by identity politics, and the appeasement of Muslim extremists in the face of worldwide jihad, not to mention the frequently fatal effects of delirious environmentalism. Europe is in debt and on fire. American citizens are in political revolt. Even the most left-wing president ever is making desperate overtures to his right.But all that might be tolerable to leftists if they weren’t starting to lose control of the one weapon in which they have the most faith: the narrative. The narrative is what leftists believe in instead of the truth. If they can blame George W. Bush for the economic crisis, if they can make Sarah Palin out to be an idiot, if they can call the Tea Party racist until you think it must be true, they might yet retain power in spite of the international disgrace of their ideas. And though they still mostly dominate the narrative on the three broadcast networks, most cable stations, most newspapers, and much of Hollywood, nonetheless Fox News, talk radio, the Internet, and the Wall Street Journal have begun to respond in ways they can’t ignore.
ThatÂ’s the hateful rhetoric theyÂ’re talking about: conservatives interrupting the stream of leftist invective in order to dismantle their arguments with the facts. As for leftistsÂ’ reaction to the Arizona shooting, call it Narrative Hysteria: a frantic attempt to capitalize on calamity by casting their opponents, not merely as racist or sexist or Islamophobic this time, but as somehow responsible for an act of madness and evil. Shame on them.

His interest in “conscience dreaming” points to the influence of David Icke, the conspiracy theorist who says the world is controlled by a race of reptilian aliens, and urges “conscious dreaming” as a way of stepping out of our Matrix-like existence.
But Loughton’s grammar instructor, via the web of course, was likely an anti-government activist named David Wynn Miller, a self-professed genius with an IQ of 200 who travels the country preaching to people in the Sovereign Citizen anti-tax movement. His claim to fame and insanity is a linguistic remix he created in 1988, the year he discovered “the mathematical interface in the truth that certifies all 5,000 languages, frontwards and backwards.”

I'm sad to see how low those in the media will stoop to denigrate an entire subpopulation of the United States. People who happen to simply disagree with some of the basic premises of their political tenets. What they've done to Palin and the Tea Party is despicable at best and absolutely abhorrent to me.
I'm angry for the same reason. Not just the media, lawmen, government officials and talking heads, but at the regular numbskulls who pass on this crap like it is fact and then yell that I am the one who is preaching the hate rhetoric.
I'm afraid. I'm afraid for all conservatives. After 9/11, Ft. Hood and the GZ Mosque we heard over and over how we shouldn't take our anger out on Muslims. However, I have yet to hear a cry to not take anger out on conservatives. I have yet to hear many people say, "we don't know all the facts yet, so let's not jump to conclusions." Some moron out there can take this vitriolic hatred and rhetoric that the Left is portraying as fact (hell, if they can use those words so can I) and use it as a catalyst to attack regular people.
I think I need to step away from the internet and news for a while. I'm honestly not sure how much more I can take.

Just remember, they think that you think the way they do.
They worship and fetishize obscure insane academics, so they naturally assume that we do as well.
Keep that in mind when they accuse us of being racist. They are the racists, but they feel guilty about it, so they assume we must be racist also.

I caught just a little bit of Rush this a.m. He said that there were a couple of reporters who were crying this a.m. when Obama did his moment of silence--because it was so stirring and Teh Bamster did such a magnificent job leading the moment of silence. If this is true (and not Rush being snarky), I hate the MFM even more (if that's even possible!) I don't recall members of the media shedding a tear for those who died at Fort Hood. Obama didn't even attend the service for those who died at Fort Hood.

Well, you already know how that's going to go down. Since all the right wingers are the hate mongers, only Democrat members of Congress, President, VP, etc. will get protection. Republicans obviously don't need it since they are in cahoots with the violent extremists. (Sorry RINO's, you get lumped in too unless you courageously switch parties). Then once the security details are in place, they will naturally unionize. You can all see where this is headed.

Seriously when I first got out of nursing school, we did stuff to patients that would never happen at Gitmo--disimpactions, milk and molasses enemas, the list goes on and on. We had glass IV bottles (and not just for Nitro) when I first got out of school. (And I'd like to think I'm not that old, but I worked at a very low budget Catholic hospital. We only put things like aminophyllin on IV pumps. The rest we used tape to mark the bottles and calculated drip rates. We did get more IV pumps several months after I got there, but I was shocked as to the antiquity of the hospital I first worked. Glass chest tube bottles too!
