Communist Party USA Jumps on the Blame Palin/GOP/Tea Party Bandwagon
What a surprise. They neglect to mention that The Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf were among the shooter’s favorite books.
(CPUSA) — “. . . In no uncertain terms, the Communist Party USA strongly and unequivocally condemns this outrageous act of violence. We extend our condolences to the family and friends of the victims. We hope for full recoveries for all the wounded, including Rep. Giffords.
It is reported that law enforcement has in custody a 22-year-old white man, Jared Lee Loughner, as the accused shooter. It is not clear whether the shooter acted alone or with accomplices.
Many are dubbing this a tragedy, which undoubtedly it is. But it doesn’t end there.
While we do not yet know the motivation of the crime, many have surmised that the motivation is political because of the atmosphere of violent language and threats against Rep. Giffords and other Congressional Democrats. Political or not, the extreme right-wing tea party movement and their anti-government rantings and ravings helped create an atmosphere that allowed or even encouraged this attack. For instance, until the day of the event when it was removed, Sarah Palin featured Giffords on her webpage with the congresswoman’s district in the crosshairs of a gun, targeting her for her support of healthcare reform.
Political hate speech has consequences. Giffords herself said, “Palin has crosshairs on our district; people have to realize there are consequences to that.” She said that in a TV interview after her Arizona office had been broken into and vandalized after her vote for the national health care reform bill. Giffords was a frequent target of the tea party movement. Judge Roll, a Republican, had also received threats from the right.
Yet, the link to rhetoric and violence doesn’t end with the Palin and her tea party. It extends to the political leadership of Arizona and the Republican Party, who have fomented laws and policies that logically lead to violence. Starting with the anti-immigrant SB 1070 and banning ethnic studies, leaders like Governor Jan Brewer, and Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio have to take as much responsibility for this violence as Palin and her cohorts. All their condolences ring hollow because of their callous inflammatory rhetoric and romanticization of guns and “Second Amendment remedies”. Arizona is burning. It is Ground Zero for this extreme far-right, and their corporate, multi-billionaire sponsors. In the words of Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik in responding to political mood leading to the shooting shooting, “Arizona I think has become the capital. We have become the mecca for prejudice and bigotry.”
In the hours after the shooting, some right wing elements seem to have created fake social networking pages in order to associate Loughner with the Left. The full story about the mental state and political motivations for the shooter will hopefully come to light soon. The attempt to paint this suspect as a leftist continues the far-right’s use of anti-communism and anti-democratic rhetoric to cover-up their own role in continuing the hate until its logical violent conclusion.
It was Giffords father, 75-year-old Spencer Giffords, who wept when asked if his 40-year-old daughter had any enemies, and answered, “Yeah,” to The New York Post, “The whole tea party.”
This shooting marks a dangerous and sad day for our country. It’s up to the American people to say, “Enough” to the hate, the racism, incitement to violence and the fascist-like behavior of anti-government thugs. Political violence and assassination has no place in our democracy.”

Rhetoric of Left = Rhetoric of Communist Party.
What a coincidence.
Naturally, the diaper babies on the left will use every opportunity to diss anyone who disagrees with them. Seems to me that the socialist whacko left just as screwy as the perp. After all his favorite tommes are the socialist left’s favorite tommes: The “Communist Manifesto” and Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” were among the favorite reading materials listed on his youtube channel.
Nice try lefties…Alinsky lives… truth be told, one of your own went off the deep end…again…
H/T: Gateway Pundit: The media and democrats want us to focus on the nation’s “caustic political climate” after the tragedy yesterday. Maybe they should start with President Obama. He may be the worst offender.
http://gatewaypundit.rightnetwork.com/2011/01/did-barack-obama-cause-the-shootings-yesterday-in-tucson
** Obama: “They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”
** Obama to His Followers: “Get in Their Faces!”
** Obama on ACORN Mobs: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”
** Obama to His Mercenary Army: “Hit Back Twice As Hard”
** Obama on the private sector: “We talk to these folks… so I know whose ass to kick.“
** Obama to voters: Republican victory would mean “hand to hand combat”
** Obama to lib supporters: “It’s time to Fight for it.”
** Obama to Latino supporters: “Punish your enemies.”
** Obama to democrats: “I’m itching for a fight.”
If Leftists really want to consider “the atmosphere of violent language”, they may want to start at the White House.
Note to Communist Party:
Please review videos of your protest marches and gatherings and see if you can pick out the signs inciting violence against politicians and corporations.
It is unfortunate but not unexpected that you would justify your own actions by seizing upon the actions of an individual who appears to share more in common with you than the people and organizations that you claim are responsible.

Thank you, K_D_E!
I am saving that info. I was thinking it would be great to have Zero’s inflammatory rhetoric in one place!
Isn’t this a transcript of bathtub boy’s special comments last night?
@Kaddafi_Delenda_Est
Beautiful post.
I point my finger at and rest all of the blame directly on Obama. Your list only proves it. Thank you.
not to mention communist Van Jones and Frances Fox Piven also calling for violence and all the democrats up to the POTUS calling for class and racial strife.
Well everyone we have learned one positive thing out of all this.
The Left is scared shitless of the Tea Party.
They know we can bet them and they can’t destroy us.
That should let everyone know that we are on the right track.
Keep up the Good Work.
We need to be on the TV and Radio talking back and sticking up for ourselves.
We not responsible for this kid or his actions.
It was his random act of violence and his alone.
We are in their heads 24/7 we can bring them down and they know it.
The progressive Communist of this Nation are scared and we did it.
Now to finish them off and get them the hell out of power.
Back to freedom, loving the Constitution and building America and Americans back up, get our economy started and
rebuild our futures again.
THIS IS AMERICA AND THEY CAN’T HAVE IT.
beat them,
We’re ….

If only the left showed that kind of initiative.

Two good articles from American Thinker:

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2011/01/and_the_winner_of_the_most_biz.html
Also if you went to hillbuzz and looked the post about DK there was screen shot of his fb page and guess who was on that. It was NOT Sarah.
One of Loughner’s favorite books was the Communist Manifesto.
Why no mentioning of this from the Communist Party?
We know why – because the Communist Manifesto is the guidebook the Communists are using to overthrow our country.
Sarah Palin doesn’t want to overthrow our country.
She wants to preserve it.
God bless you Sarah Palin.
You’re friends out here are wishing you prayers at this time as well as the victims.
The left who are pinning this deliberate act of violence on patriotic Americans are despicable beings and should be reminded of that in a verbal way on a constant basis.
I went to the original article but noticed there is not place for comments.
This from the Masters of the Lie.
Is it just mean or has there been more comments/articles/news coverage from more outlets than there was with the Ft. Hood shootings?
I don’t remember the CPUSA condemning that.
Figures that CPUSA would be on board in the blame game.
One thing that many conservatives have not yet learned is that when one speaks figuratively -metaphorically is that most liberals take it literally. When Sarah Palin uses the crosshairs or reload analogy they think that she means actual harm.
Notwithstanding, The largest segment of liberals are only looking out for the lefts view on what they want this country to become. May God help us, for he is our only hope, and has all under his control. Prayer is the best answer.
Disconnecting from the event for a moment,
How does the left reconcile the fact that Mein Kampf and the Communist Manifesto are on the same reading list?
How could someone find a common thread between the two works if as the left claims, ‘the two philosophies are diametrically opposed’?
.
As we pray and morn for the victims , don’t lose focus on what these progressive commies are about . Conservatives are steadfast in their values and beliefs . We will not cow tow down to the communist bastards , not now , not ever . Give them time and they will devour themselves , parasites that they are .
Hypocritical and typical that the post at Communist Party USA not only makes no mention of “Communist Manifesto” being a favorite book of Loughner’s (screw honesty and journalistic integrity) and that he may be a member of a Jewish hate group (Giffords is the first Jewish female to be a congresswoman), but no one can submit comments on the post to expose their obvious falsehoods in the post.
Cowardly punk liars – easier for this spineless, commie hack at CPUSA to blame all the world’s tragedies on the tea party movement, Sarah Palin, and Glenn Beck than to decry the horrific shooting massacre committed by ONE OF THEIR OWN.
Wasn’t the Liberal Left that was calling for armed and violent uprising after they lost the majority in House? If anyone’s rhetoric caused this violence the blame would have to rest on the shoulders of the Liberal Democrats.
The fact of the matter is is that Loughner was not of the presence of mind to be rationally affiliated with a political party!! His apparent psychosis takes him way out of the realm of rational thought pattern or participation in any way shape or form. Even his favorite books listed on his social media page adhere to no particularly consistent philosophy or basis.
Yes he mentioned the Constitution, but well the Communist Manifesto was one of this favorite books along with Alice in Wonderland. To me it is spinning and responsible for media outlets to be spouting he is a right winger out to get a Democrat when apparently he was nuts!
To take this tragedy and spin things to go after conservatives takes the focus off of the job that those in power should be doing for the American people . United we stand divided we fall, and that is what the communists have wanted all along. This nation is being divided, and left to fall.
Ah yes, the oh-s0-tolerant left…..and their co-horts in the MSM.
I guess it’s all the bong-hits and heavy regular doses of acid that results in their short term memory loss, including this doozie from a couple of years ago:

Where have I heard something similar……….?

Maybe this Loughran fellow was right about “mind control” by the government. Seems his mind was most assuredly controlled by Obongo himself, given the posting of K-D-E above detailing the vitriolic rhetoric of the “Magnificent One”.
This is what the great dictators do – they incite violence through words. Hitler was a master of it as evidenced by Krystallnacht, when the German people (aided by a few Brownshirts) broke windows of Jewish shopkeepers and ransacked their businesses.
More of this will follow as the Marxist beast fights for survival.
Wouldn’t expect anything less from them.
Msm remain mum…after-all the majority of them are in the same bandwagon.
This is interesting. This is a publication from Harper’s Magazine, dated August 1941, entitled ‘Who Goes Nazi?’ It attempts to identify who is susceptible to this particular ‘cult’ behavior.

Who goes Nazi?
http://harpers.org/archive/1941/08/0020122
“It is an interesting and somewhat macabre parlor game to play at a large gathering of one’s acquaintances: to speculate who in a showdown would go Nazi. By now, I think I know. I have gone through the experience many times–in Germany, in Austria, and in France. I have come to know the types: the born Nazis, the Nazis whom democracy itself has created, the certain-to-be fellow-travelers……..”

Fellow Travelers??? Where have i heard that expression before?
.
I am glad that I am not the only one who is seeing through all of the left’s hypocrisy. Thanks guys.
The shooter began stalking Giffords in 2007 – a full year before American knew Palin
uhhh Nazism is a rightwing philosphy
The Nazis were big fans of Communism:

then get lost asswipe.
If you wanna see hate bigotry and divisiveness go to every leftist website where they spew hatred against gays who vote republican.
But i thought you idiots compared Bush to Hitler and are still doing it?
Like i said fucktard go to CPUSA’s website you Stalin worshipper.
I don’t care what the Democratic Party has to say about this.
And no that’s not a typo.
I am TOTALLY against violence, but if it must be, bring it, you communist pussies and see what REAL PATRIOTS are like.
“In no uncertain terms, the Communist Party USA strongly and unequivocally condemns this outrageous act of violence.”
The IRONY! It just reeks!
Found the perfect picture to illustrate the Commu-Nazi point:
