This is an outrage in the making.
Palin aide defends imagery targeting Giffords
An aide to Sarah Palin defended the imagery that targeted Rep. Gabrielle Giffords for defeat last year because she voted for the health care law.
Sarah Palin had targeted Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and 19 other lawmakers who voted for health care for defeat in 2010.
Rebecca Mansour told talk show host Tammy Bruce that images of crosshairs, contained on a graphic on a Palin website targeting Giffords and 19 other lawmakers for defeat in the 2010 election, were not meant to spark violence.
"We never ever, ever intended it to be gun sights," Mansour said. She denounced attempts to tie Palin to the violence as "obscene" and "appalling."
The only thing obscene and appalling IMHO is the attempt by Sarah Palin and her surrogates to "whitewash" her history of violent rhetoric and actions consistent with those of a seriously violent and unstable individual.
Words have consequences Ms. Palin, be an adult and live with it.
