[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 949160, member: 60724"] It's funny this whole "crosshairs" thing is still in the news. It's funny that Palin is still backpeddling. The way I see it is bad taste is bad taste, and fueling the rhetoric with things like crosshairs, and comments like "Don't retreat...reload!", is simply, in a word or two: uncivilized and reckless. I've been a Palin supporter in the past, and still like her chances of one day being on a presidential ticket. Regardless, as I said, there comes a time to tone down the rhetoric and not add to it. I still think she is adding to it. Funny how Giffords herself objected to the crosshairs, and kind of "prophetically" said that its just that type of imagery that can cause harm. Again, whether one actually believes crosshairs, or the rantings and ravings of political figures contribued to this wackjob in AZ, I ask: "Does it really matter?" I further ask: "Aren't we, and shouldn't we be BETTER than this?" Our leaders sound like spoiled children on a playground, and those that are taking sides and supporting their childish rantings aren't helping. If we don't expect more, then we are sure to NOT get it. TJR [/QUOTE]
