By making that statement, she put herself in a position where she could be associated to an incident like what happened in Arizona, even though the shooter may have never heard of her

Too bad, considering that much of what she said about the media was true. But, she really ratcheted up the rhetoric when using the term "blood libel." Most people don't know what it means, but they will soon find out, and at the minimum, wonder about her motives for using such a term, and/or see it as h er speaking to her base, since she's probably not counting on a significant percentage of Jewish voters supporting her. At the worst, people will view her as an anti-Semite. I find it hard to believe she did not know it's meaning and context before she used it.

keep in mind that Plain is so stupid, she hires a ghostwriter to make out her shopping list. Not only doesn't she know the meaning of "blood libel" she doesn't know the meaning of the word LIBEL------------:)

Giffords is Jewish? It could be. Or, on the other end of the continuum it could be a typical narcissistic response to feeling acted. The typical narcissist, when a person has felt attacked and injured by them and speaks up about it, will protest even louder and more vehemently that they are the one being truly attacked.

So she used a word that has emotional connotations.

How many times has the left talked about slavery.  A football player wants more money and he talks about slavery.   Al Gore told a black audience that the GOP wants to return them to the days when they were 3/4 of a person. One Dem pundit called the GOP "Krystalnacht."

For once, I won't go on and on and on and on, but there are 1,000 examples of the left with Nazi, Kristalnahct, etc.

But Palin uses "blood libel," and that does it. Almost as bad as her using bulls eyes on the ad.

In your case, it happens when you write too much, dnc, it is usually turns into crap. It is amazing you only get riled about right wing BS.
