Politicians should look at the blood on their hands. . . but they won't.

Watching the politicians on the cable news channels is an exersize in disgust. Thy are posturing and voicing their sadness with their droopy eyes and all their bullshit but not one has talked about the fact that this nut case was instigated to do what he did by the angry and nasty political rhetoric that has been getting worse and worse over the past decade.

Let's call it like it is. . . the right uses violent and condemning rhetoric to polarize, scare and generally intimidate the voters. The left lets them get away with it instead of standing up to them and pointing out their recreant behavior by taking the high road.

The politicians who are standing there on the right talking about how reprehensible this act is and how horrible they feel should be looking in the mirror. They should be aksing themselves what part THEY played in this tragedy.
But they won't. They will never admit mistakes or admit they have done ANYTHING wrong.

I am so tired of politics in America. It has come to this.

Think maybe now we can have some small control over what crazy can own a gun?

No? I didn't think so...

Fox is going with the theory that Jared Lee Loughner is a Nazi and shot Giffords because she's Jewish. That way, they can put the blame on the left because, as every Tea Party cretin believes, National Socialism is the same as regular Socialism. It's amazing how fucking ignorant people are in this country.

The left will blame the right and the right will blame the left and the people who are really in power will sit back and smile knowing that the masses are under control as long as they are focused on each other and not on those who really have their thumbs on them.

Yup, the right will blame the left and the left the right, but when it is all said and done that child and others are still dead.

I am beginning to hate politics. Smh!
