Arizona Congresswoman Shot

This afternoon Arizona Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was shot in the head
by a crazed mass murderer.  When asked if Gabrielle had any enemies her father replied "Only the tee party.".  The shooter has been identified as 22 year old Jared Lee Loughner.
Jared sure does NOT look like a Tee Party supporter to me.

What does a Tea Party member look like?

Whether he is or isn't has not been established. But to make an assumption either way is wrong

Also the father did not make the claim that the shooter- whos identity actually has not been confirmed as of right now- was a member of the Tea Party. He simply stated that his daughters enemies were Which was clearly true in that she was on Sarah Palins target this with the crosshairs with the claim to "reload". Not to mention the target practice ads her latest opponent used in the most recent election
If it is found ghat either of these issues played a factor in the shooting I personally think these women should be held legally accountable. If perchance this was just another random act of violence then that I'd just another sad state of affairs for us to deal with

That picture makes him look a bit goofy, there are probably others that make him look like mister wonderful.

I am frustrated that we do not know more about this event: 1) Did she have security? 2) Were they armed? 3) Who are those others that died? 4) What did he say when aprehended? 5) How many shots were fired? 6) Did he reload? 7) How many clips did he have? 8) Since this was an open area, why did the people not run away?

The most disturbing part of the father's response was the word "only".
