where to begin? her "analysis" is merely a regurgitation of partisan leftist talking points...very weak.

Maybe you need to quit smoking what you were growing in Washington DC. ;-0

NOA,... Sarah Palin? The far right? a monopoly on God? Sarah Palin is to the right, NOT far right,...unlike Obama who is FAR left. In American politics socialism is far left, vs liberalism which is to the left. Coservatives in America know that nobody has a monopoly on God! Know this though, socialism, in the dictionary is described, among other things, as a religion. What does that tell you?

where were are you left wing liberals when the left produced a movie called the assassination of george w. bush WHEN GEORGE W. BUSH WAS PRESIDENT? what a bunch of.. hypocrites

What is so terrible about socialism? Not everyone can make their own opportunities. Some are born rich, some aren't. Some are rich and lose it all, some make it rich. But everyone should at least be entitled to health. Did you know that most of our parents would not have been able to go to college without the GA Bill in the 50s. No one is completely independent. Even in the Colonies before the United States of America, communities worked together to help everyone. Do you think Sweden and Denmark are horrible countries? They have socialism and are democratic. As a matter of fact, I think America may be the only country in the world that has no public healthcare system. Even in England, Australia and Canada they have it. Showing a small amount of humanity is so terrible for a government to do? The venom and hate being spewed over this is unbelievable. And everyone thinks Obama wants to hurt the country? Why would he want to do such a thing? Would that really be in his interest. No one minds opposition. The right to disagree is what makes America great. Would you only allow it for the Right? This heated up atmosphere is enough to scare anyone away. And hey, I have never heard anyone on the left make threatening, hateful statements like the right is doing. I know I am right about this.

You say there is a far right beyond Palin? Can you give an example? Please, say it ain't so, Joe. As for socialism, Obama is lousy at it. he keeps making a profit for taxpayers or getting paid back by borrowers. As to that insurance reform that is so horrible, it did not go beyond where Idaho and North and South Dakota and Colorado had already gone with a single exception - it included the Republican idea (held for 30 years as an alternative to Clinton's Hillarycare) of the individual mandate. Heaven say us from that kind of Socialism - profits and all, right?

Orly, I like your writing

It is one thing for American Media to spout politics in a dirty matter in response to an event in America. It is another thing entirely when foreign media does it. There is no connection between the Tea Party and the Arizona Massacre. The lunatic's Youtube acount and myspace is still up to anyone who has a genuine interest in this case. I once ranked Ynet as equal to the Guardian, and Telegraph, now however I think I will avoid returning here. Continue spreading anti-Republican hate, you will find a lot less people speaking out when leftists question if Israeli Journalists are allowed into something. Goodbye Ynetnews, I do not intend on returning to this site. The "evidence" cited in this article is all half truth, and more often outright lies. I would say more but the shooters own words say it all about the case.

Sadly, people who tend to leave talkbacks here are conservative republican idiots. The reason is that intelligent people do not have time to waste on these low class comments and personal attacks of the author (rather than commenting on the actual issues). Liberals tend to be more educated than right-wingers, and so idiots are overrepresented here. This comment is meant to correct it: Palin is bad news, and so are all of her conservative loonies, who are endangering both the US and Israel.

Blaming the Tea Party and Palin is typical to American radical left wing media which Israeli media accepted without self criticism. As Rahm Emanuel dictum "don't let a crisis go to waste" so does the perpetual bashing of Governor Palin and the Tea Party. Palin is the most abused American woman ever, while part of her massage was shared by congresswoman Gilfford who was a "Blue Dog Democrat" together with 60 other Democrats. Yes, she voted for health care reform that I can asure you would not have passed in Israel. Israel is frequently complaining on biased reporting. Israel media has to take an accurate fair and balanced reporting regarding America as much as they expect from USA when reporting about Israel.

It has been a most difficult time for all in the US. At the best, it is an opportunity for an examination of our individual and collective consciences. At worst, unfortunately, the far right has already begun a whispering campaign that this tragedy was created by the democrats to boost falling support. Fortunately, that is not the dominant question for us. Where does this hate come from? Do I contribute to it? Can I act to prevent or lessen it somehow? Obama has shown a remarkable willingness to work with all parties and is now prepared to lead from strength. He stood by the poor in the lame duck session. The economy is improving and health care benefits are scheduled to kick in. Under death threats himself, he is not afraid to go the site of the tragedy and show support for the fallen. Tell me again why this good man should suffer such baseless attacks?

read Charles Krauthamer about the murderer; he wasn't influenced by the right. And the Dems came up with the target imagery and when Bush was President his assassination was called for, another Dem commentator hoped Cheney's heart would be removed and bounced around, President Obama himself said if they bring a knife to the fight, we'll bring a gun.
