MSNBC: Bob Franken reporter implies Palin and Limbaugh hold blame.

[vaberella]

He talked about how some of our "opportunistic politicians" and of course those on "talk radio" who ignite even if they don't necessarily mean to fuel the fire, do instigate the situation and we have these devastating reactions by some of the more fringed groups.

He didn't name names, but he totally implied that Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin hold major blame in this.

3. I'd like to hear someone like Weiner

take to the floor and unload like he's done in the past.

He and others who have a set - get out there and make the case against hate speech in politics.

4. Great. This needs to be echoed. nt

8. He did do that. But he didn't when he made the above comment.

He mentioned Palin's condolences in relation to hindsight of her actions too.

7. Limbaugh will roll out the "I'm just an entertainer!" defense ...

"I'm a teddy bear!"

9. MSNBC just showed an interview with Giffords where she was talking about Palin's

incidious web post. Chuck and Savannah did the interview a little while ago and they just replayed it.
