Listening to talk radio, there are two twains that will never meet:
Right wing – sure there’s enough blame to go around, and we can learn from this, but please, this was not Sarah Palin’s fault. The guy was sick.
Left wing – there is nothing to talk about. The blame is entirely on the right side, except for one teeny tiny offense Keith Olbermann’s already apologized for. And (direct quote from Randy Rhodes) don’t blame violence on mental illness! And another gem from RR (can’t remember who said what, her or a caller, though she offered the fascism definition and didn’t call the caller on the carpet): our demonstrations are peaceful. And yes, someone was dressed up as a fascist GWB but he IS a fascist, a fascist is someone who acts in a way that is in direct contradiction to the country’s interests.
