Left's outrage aims to bolster its agenda

I get tired reading Walt Zlotow's opinions that are nothing more than party line hypocrisy. Talk about a one-trick pony. Doesn't he realize that politics has been riddled, no pun intended, with military jargon since forever?

It is nothing new, and both parties and the media use it all the time. Also, doesn't he realize that the Democrats have used bull's-eyes previously themselves? (Check out the 2004 campaign and the targeting strategy map with targets that the Dems put together).

The outrage from the left is nothing more than vitriolic rhetoric, and has less to do with promoting civility, and more to do with bolstering their own agenda. Think about it, there is an entire political party working to blame others, rather then the actual perpetrator, and people like Walt are in perfect lock step with them.

As the timeline has been pieced together, it becomes obvious that not only did the sheriff, numerous politicians and the liberal media rush to judgment, but also that Jared Loughner had been plotting long before anything that Sarah Palin said or did.

Be honest, Walt, if you really care about civility, you would have written your opinion differently.
