We cannot walk away from this one.
We cannot blame one nutjob for the shooting of 19 people Saturday in Tucson, Ariz., and wash our hands of it.
We cannot pretend that this is only about him and not about us.
Worst of all, we cannot say we were not warned.
For more than two years, sensible people have been pleading with their fellow Americans to tone down the rhetoric, to quit with the demonizing, to end the fear-mongering.

here we go. The same straw men are going to be blamed that were blamed for the Oklahoma City bombing...
I can think of what is more sickening - the deplorable, reprehensible tragedy that occurred in Tuscon or the finger-pointing blame game that is sure to ensue in the following weeks.
Without even hearing it, I can tell you right now that all week on The Bill Press Show, The Stephanie Miller Show, The Ed Schultz Show, The Thom Hartmann Show, and all of MSNBC, they will blame Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, The Tea Party anbd FoxNews for this tragedy.
Let the 'blame-the-righties' begin!!!!
