Needs to Grow Up and Wake Up
President Obama made a thoughtful appeal to say words that heal and words that unite rather than steam up divisiveness or hate. Palin -the Anti-President, did the opposite.

The Party part that is promoting and backing her, hypocritic to its core, stands by her because she is Pro-Life and says nice things about Israel and
bore a child willingly with Down's. Very nice for her and her family.
The Republican Party has to look at more than this sort of character attribute in picking leadership. Pro Life Nice. Good --whatever she thinks that means for policy reasons and hopefully it does not just mean prosecute women. Leadership means something wholly different than making home movies by your fireplace insulting Journalists and Jews everywhere.
The Party is stubbornly invested in its bad decisions. It keeps doing this to itself.
The House flipped over health care- the Presidential Race is something completely different.
Obama is not tough enough on people who should be called to task. He is the great appeaser.
He needs to start calling out people who deserve to be called out and shutting up people who should know better. He is seen as a sell out to those who elected him. John Kerry is waiting in the wings to throw down a gauntlet and there are a few other Democrats who want to throw their hat in the ring. You cannot be the suck-up in chief when your Congresspeople are fighting for their life for too long. You have to come out and make some statements about how serious measures need to be taken to prevent this sort of thing from happening ever again.
It's not a 'whoopsie' 'we have psychos here and there whatdya gonna do' - it's lets get serious gun control and lets stop letting irresponsible reckless people call for the assassination of political figures.
