I never made any claims, just defending the sheriffs right to the same free speech that your favorite pundits get paid millions for.......
not stupid, ignorant perhaps....ignorance being the lack of knowledge concerning who you listen to. The way you defend them, I assumed you listen to them, sorry...
How is what the sheriff did a political attack? Is he up for election? I think he said what is on a lot of people's minds, that the heated rhetoric is too much. If pundits want to smear politicians with the truth, I am all for it. But when you start expanding past truth, the only reputation smeared is their own. That is why I despise pundits, that can't help themselves, they can't stick with just the facts, ma'am.....
and then there are the many, many listeners who so willingly suspend disbelief because it is what they WANT to hear....
We have more than one sheriff, we also have Sheriff Joe.....
Arizona isn't near the embarrassment that Washington, D. C. is....
and you should talk, you gave us LBJ the liar, no tax increase Bush, and tax cut while fighting a war Bush.....:2razz:
Touché on the TX presidents. However, I consider Sheriff Joe to be just another embarrassment for ya'll.

As I have already pointed out - the greatest crime anyone can commit against the right wing True Believers is to brand them as such and expose them for what they really are and what their tactics are. So now Sheriff Dupnik has their gun sights focused upon him despite his long and fine record of service to the people. He who dares to raise his voice against what they truly are must be targeted and eliminated as job one.
We still don't know what motivated him or if the shootings weren't politically inspired.

What exactly did Sheriff Dupnik say that merits his recall from office after thirty years of meritorious service to the people of that county?
I want to tell you I hope that all Americans are as saddened and shocked as we are, and I hope that some of them or most of them are as angry as I am and as a lot of us are. And I think it’s time as a country that we need to do a little soul searching, because the vitriolic rhetoric that we hear day in and day out from people the radio business and some people in the TV business, and what we see on TV and how our youngsters are being raised, that this has not become the nice United States of America that most of us grew up in, and I think it’s time that we do the soul searching.
When you look at unbalanced people--how they are--how they respond to the vitriol that comes out of certain mouths about tearing down the government--the anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on in this country is getting to be outrageous and unfortunately Arizona, I think, has become sort of the capital. We have become the mecca for prejudice and bigotry.
Let me just say one thing, because people tend to poo-poo all this business about all the vitriol we hear inflaming the American public by people who make a living off of doing that. That may be free speech, but it’s not without consequences.
This should be expected from an open borders guy like yourself...

I see nothing in those comments from Sheriff Dupnik to warrant his ouster from the office he has so able served for three decades.
the top LAW ENFORCEMENT officer in pima knows
he knew before the victims assumed room temperature
The statement said that between February and September last year, campus police were called five times to deal with disruptions Loughner caused in classrooms and libraries. On Sept. 29, the college said, it discovered that Loughner had posted a YouTube video he had made on the campus.
"In the video, he claims that the College is illegal according to the U.S. Constitution, and makes other claims," the college's statement said.
On Oct. 4, during a meeting with Loughner, his parents and college administrators, he agreed to withdraw, the college said. School officials told him he could return only if he obtained a clearance certifying that "in the opinion of a mental health professional, his presence at the College does not present a danger to himself or others." Tucson shooting suspect Jared Loughner appears to have posted bizarre messages
i'm stunned it requires pointing out
1. the shooter probably IS insane
2. all the folks sayin it AREN'T the sheriff
he may even be found not guilty by reason of insanity, like hinckley, for all i know
doesn't alter the fact that the top law enforcement officer in pima politicized this tragedy, was wrong, resorted to a gag order and now faces a recall
party on, all
pray for ms giffords, her family, the other victims and theirs
