And: A White House Spokesman Assured ABC's The Note That Obama Would Not Sully This Solemn Occasion With Shabby Politics

Full Text of Speech

If, like me, you were just thinking, "Hey, he's keeping the focus on the victims, that's good" (and by good I mean awful, because they were real living people, once), brace yourself, he's about to turn bad.

He doesn't so much make accusations as continue to pander to deranged leftists who insist that Sarah Palin is an accomplice to murder. But who knows -- given that the left is now determined to avenge the shootings via some eliminationist rhetoric and possibly actions of their own, maybe it's helpful and will save lives.

If he wants to make the left understand I mean you too he has to say so though, because of course otherwise they assume they can do no wrong.

"We cannot use this occasion as one more reason to turn on each other." Nice thought, but I sure hope that at some point the word goes out I mean the left too.

No... I tried to give him a break, but it's the heavy implication this was a political attack (why else all the emphasis on disagreeing without being disagreeable?).

Yup, trying to run the Bill Clinton 1995 playbook.

Question: Why did he stage this yet again at a college? I know that's where he prefers to campaign, but, um, this wasn't supposed to be a campaign event.

Why was the audience filled with people entirely unconnected to the victims? Was it an accident these people were college students? I.e., Obama fans?

All the audience cheering? What?
