I don't have a problem with what you are suggesting but in the interest of fairness ask the other side for mea culpa as well. Obama said not long ago that he will bring a gun to the fight. Did he mean that he will go to Congress packing? DLC had a map with bullseyes all over it. The word targeting is used so often that people don't think twice about it. People are apparently much more clever than the intelligentsia packed-forum here. They thought they had made the connection for sure.
"n a CBS News telephone poll, according to the network, "57 percent of respondents said the harsh political tone had nothing to do with the shooting, compared to 32 percent who did."
