Sally Zelikovsky, a leader of the Tea Party movement here in Northern California, has a piece up at the American Thinker. Sally's a suburban mom--a tough suburban mom. An excerpt:
Every person who has suggested that this rampage was somehow politically motivated by the Tea Party or that the killer was incited by conservatives, without having even a scintilla of a hint of evidence to back up those claims, owes an apology not only to Tea Partiers and conservatives, but also, most importantly, to the families of the slain and injured, whom they knowingly exploited.

Sometimes the stereotypical driving directions that you get from stereotypical New England farmers is correct. "You can't get there from here."

Yeah, I won't hold my breath either. Apologies are for decent people with a moral conscience. When you believe that "the ends justify the means," no apology is ever necessary. Stalin and Mao knew it. Pol Pot, too.

Even though it exacerbates my hypertension, every once in a while I watch CNN. I can tolerate John King He was in Arizona talking to various people, including a Tea Party leader, who acquitted himself well. The following show was Parker/Spitzer. That man has no class, and was oleaginously sycophantic to the controversial Arizona sheriff. How do such people continue to have a voice?

I posted this on another thread here:
From Ann Altman's website:
Anyone else find it creepy that new standard what we may and may not say is: How will it affect the behavior of an obviously crazy person who may or may not hear it?

This is a situation that makes me feel completely helpless: first, that we can never protect everyone from mentally ill people, and second, that everything is blamed on conservatives by news outlets too many Americans still rely on.
My prayers for the victims and their families, and gratitude for the Tea Party folks with the patience to mount a grown-up defense.

Making this horror a political turn for speech suppression places these people beyond the pale.
Anyone can be first with bad information.
