Since we cats don't have hours of airtime to fill, we've refrained from joining the national conversation about our hate-filled political discourse until we learn more about the motives of yesterday's Arizona shooter.
On the other hand, we think that Sheriff Dupnik's eloquent comments at last night's press conference probably demonstrate that there is a link between Rush Limbaugh's Republican bombast and the murder and mayhem in Tucson.
And we've warned before that words have consequences and that sooner or later, somebody was going to get hurt.
Still, while we wait, we have two thoughts that we must share.
First, it might be a good idea for the Republicans to call their "future leaders of America" something else. And to stop asking their candidates at their RNC chairmanship debates how many guns they own.
And second, can Sarah Palin be arrested? The fact that she scrubbed her "target" map off her website is the surest admission of guilt we know.
UPDATE: So a Palin spokesperson has tried to claim that the target symbols on this map are non-gun-related? "It was simply cross-hairs like you'd see on maps," Rebecca Mansour told a right-wing radio show. Unbelievable. Let's arrest her, too.
