“Sarah Palin has the crosshairs of a gun sight over our district and when people do that, they’ve gotta realize there are consequences to that action.”

This violent terrorism has got to stop. I'm talking to you TeaBaggers, Rush, Beck, Fox News and the rest of you right wing lunatics inciting violence.

1. Hmmm. The himbo news dude said Palin's rhetoric "may look bad, but...".

Wonder if he's on tonite.

[Chimichurri]

7. Their rhetoric is dangerous and good on Whoopie for pointing out the obvious.

We need to stop being silent about the right wing abuses.

10. Wow, I'm just now learning about this! Ms. Giffords was as gracious as she could be

in this interview from March, &, given what's happened to her, Chuck Todd's & his co-host's playing-down-the-baggers'-hatred seems so cheap & condescending. Her office windows were shattered by bullets, with baggers outside the office daily, but, "Ms. Giffords, are you afraid this might be used politically by the Democrats?"

We all saw this tragedy coming.

Thanks for finding this video. I wonder what Chuck Todd will be saying about this.

[Joanne98]

11. Of course TOOL Todd has to defend Sarah Palin!

[Chimichurri]

21. He should be ashamed of himself!

[MrsBrady]

12. msnbc is re-airing some of this clip at this typing n/t

[Very_Boring_Name]

13. Chuck Todd you ignorant douchebag

[Chimichurri]

14. Really. He should apologize for being so insensitive to the very

real threats imposed by the right.

[perdita9]

15. Second Amendment Remedies come to Arizona

Congratulations, Tea Baggers, you finally found someone crazy enough to act out your rhetoric.

[Chimichurri]

16. Arizona Sheriff elluded to the vitriol that's become dangerous

[felix_numinous]

17. Hate rhetoric

from the mainstream is reckless and irresponsible- in a country suffering from joblessness, high poverty rate, and war veterans returning with PTSD. People do not need suggestions on what to do with their anger and frustrations, they need suggestions on how to cope. Many people here have seen this coming a long time ago, it is so sad.

I hope this video is eventually aired, it needs to be seen by everyone.

[MrsBrady]

18. again, msnbc re-airing this clip at this typing. n/t

[lumpy]

20. Ironic,... this Giffords video.. It should be as widely viewed as

possible. It clearly points the finger at Palin's rhetoric/posting calling for violence. Send this video to as many people as you can.

[grahamhgreen]

22. The anchors treat it as if it's Giffords blowing it out of proportion.
