Do we need to mention that they were both democratic politicians? Many of us would love to see the list of the others he was going to kill. I'm sort of thinking they were all Democrats.

    Apparently, they're still screaming about how liberals are using violence. Nucking futz.

    I think it was the Pro Left that had a recent podcast about how the Democrats are set up as the balancing force that is always put into the position of an abused housewife that must mollify the crazy alcoholic husband, which is the Republicans.

    Pretty apt metaphor, and I'm not doing it justice, but it's pretty much considered "normal" for Republicans to do and say nearly anything, and then everyone blames the Democrats for making the Republicans do what they do...it's all DARVO.

    …the gunman had a list that included her name and the names of other lawmakers, all of whom were Democrats. The list included about 70 potential targets, a federal law enforcement official said, including doctors, community and business leaders, and locations for Planned Parenthood and other health care centers. Some of the targets were in neighboring states.
