In Alaska, an activist seeking access to Sarah Palin's gubernatorial emails is threatened with assassination.Responding to criticism she received after the January 8 Tucson shootings, Sarah Palin referred to death threats she and her children have received, suggesting that the Palin clan have been victims of heated political rhetoric. And an aide noted that the Palin team was consulting with security professionals. Andree McLeod, a prominent Palin critic in Alaska, could also use such help, for she has been publicly threatened with assassination—just for requesting, under Alaska's open records act, the work-related emails Palin sent and received while governor. "I have my scope cross hair on her head! She better watch out, the request may have been her last!"

Once again, the connection exists only in the writer's (obviously impaired, drugs?) mind...not even a good try by your very, very low standards, Lakhota...

Ed, I simply laugh at your chronic personal attacks, but they make you look extremely shallow.

It's only a personal attack if you contributed anything personal to the OP, which, as we all know, you didn't...you're a re-poster, not a poster...

I see the GOP or loosely related operatives have likely absconded with the fringe left playbook.
Notice Lak has shown no concern over death threats to Palin or her family.

I do not condon any sort of death threats to public officials, regardless of party affiliation. That is the difference between those on the right vs those on the left. The right has respect for all life. The left does not.

When your name becomes public, lunatics will threaten you and it doesn't matter if you are left leaning or right leaning.

Gods forbid the threat was against Palin herself, we all know how beloved She is and no living creature would ever ever threaten her existence.

Once again, the connection exists only in the writer's (obviously impaired, drugs?) mind...not even a good try by your very, very low standards, Lakhota...[/quote ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ed I have a question for you. I noticed on another thread you were complaining about the "liberal " moderators allowing a post that referred to a question of your sanity{ I hope you also noticed no post on that , "if the shoe fits...}and allowing it to stand, not be deleted , yet here , you with the personal unneeded insult "the connection exists only in the writer's (obviously impaired, drugs?) mind" to another poster as if what you post is always correct yet similer types referring to you are verboten, yet the same moderators you are complaining about as being unfair to you, are allowing your attacks to stand. Just doesn't make sense to me. Any chance of clearing it up , possible i and others are missing something?

The only people, regardless of where they fall on the political spectrum, who are okay with death threats of ANYONE are insane. Sane people, of all walks, don't condone threats and violence. You know me as both a nice person and a flaming liberal, and that was just a wacky statement. Absolute statements are never true.

You know me as both a nice person and a flaming liberalI do? No, it was the comment that only the right cares about life that got my goat earlier. Hence my unintelligible reply.

Ha! That's funny, I need to read before I post. : ;D Though I would hope that anyone who threatens death has some level of insanity, temporary or otherwise.
