The main target was Gifford which is not to say the others were not also victims and are not in our thoughts. This was a political assassination and that is what this discussion is about.

I wasn't aware I was evil. Thanks for pointing that out. I do believe we should be polite to each other, speak in full sentences and not call people names which isn't the same as being politically correct.

I will be the first to admit that I am not sure why the oil prices are so dramatically increasing. I heard in passing that oil speculators are betting on China increasing their demand for oil. I am not aware of which of Obama's policies would have caused this. Maybe you could state which ones. You did pretty well asking that question however it is too bad that you had to stoop to using "hussein" "parasites" "twinkles and malt liquor".

Well said. Perhaps more people should try organizing their thoughts, speaking in complete sentences and learning where the shift key is.

Thank you.

It is hard not to drop to the level of some of the posters here but maybe we should try to stay above the name calling.

I have no problems with anyone's thoughts. I do have problems when people post things that make no sense, are not backed up with proof and turn into name calling when they get caught. There seems to be an awful lot of that on all these political web sites, HuffPo included.

What has the National Debt have to do with your previous comment about the shooter being from the left? Or with this thread for that matter? The way you present yourself in public and they way you communicate is important if you want others to take you seriously. Why would anyone take you seriously if you just call people silly names and type haphazardly?

This comment is completely out of line and if you don't know that you should get some help.

It shouldn't be up to the person who did not make the comment to prove that the comment was accurate. But feel free to keep calling people names, that will help raise the level of conversation.
