Poll question: The Domestic Terror Attack in Arizona: A Turning Point For the Administration?
Edited on Sun Jan-09-11 08:17 PM by OmahaBlueDog
On April 19, 1995, domestic terrorists bombed the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City killed 168 people. Politically, some mark it as a turning point for the Clinton administration, which had been under attack by conservative Republicans led by Newt Gingrich. Will this event represent such a turning point for the Obama administration?

1. This is being billed as a local nut case. Little to no national impact

There will be pronouncements from both sides, the anti-gun bubbas have already said they will initiate some legislation which will go nowhere, The Brady Bunch and the NRA will see an uptick in donations.

2. Why? You have to take a serious and constant stand
Against this violence and hateful rhetoric.

Dems have consistently allowed themselves to
Be soured down.

3. Nope. Our Democratic "leaders" are too chickenshit to call this
what it is: domestic right-wing terrorism.
