Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was on Sarah Palin's infamous "crosshairs map," listing all the Representatives the former VP candidate wanted defeated in the midterm elections, RadarOnline.com can report.

The map created a firestorm because it had what appeared to be targets placed over the Congressional districts involved, and a list of the Representatives, including Giffords.
The map was initially posted by Palin's political action committee (PAC) which has since taken it down. It is still active on Palin's Facebook page.

At the time of its creation, the "target map" caused a huge uproar.
"Sarah Palin has now placed gun sights on 20 members of Congress who supported reform," Democratic National Committee chairman Tim Kaine said at the time.
On Saturday Palin put out a brief statement sending her condolences to the families of all those injured in the shooting that critically injured Giffords. She sustained a gunshot wound to the head.
One of Giffords' Congressional aides was also shot.

I love the intelligent ones claiming innocence and he was a leftie. Sarah would throw all of these devoted freaks
under the bus for 50 cents

Palin's just as guilty as if she pulled the trigger herself. I've been to two rallies of hers just to see the crowd reactions to her. She INCITES hatred & did nothing to stop the crowd when they called Obama a terrorist or that he should die.

FAIL. Loughner is a lefty. See twitter.com/caitieparker for details. She went to school with the perp and played in a band with him. She's a lefty herself - one more sober and competent than the boobs on this thread - and she knew him as a lefty too.

Face the Nation just ran a clip where the Congresswoman Giffords was concerned about Palin's cross hair mpa and said that may fuel fire to the tone on politics. I found it so eerie that she may have foreseen the future.

Sarah Palin had the map w/crosshairs up since March 2010. Why did she wait until yesterday to take it down?

Exactly!

There's more animosity toward Palin, than the man who pulled the trigger? Loughner threatened Giffords in 2007, before Palin was in the national spotlight. Liberals are using a tragedy involving one of their own to, well, play politics.

Palin is as much responsible for the tragic killings in AZ as is the man who pulled the trigger. She is dangerous to our country. She's a quitter who gave up on her state, a liar, and the biggest sin of all, she's stupid & boring.

IMO - Palin is a sociopath. The only thing that upsets her about this entire matter is that she got caught with the map, and couldn't get it down fast enough.

Yes, now her "spokesperson/former-she says" said that they were not meant to be gun sights but tweeted that bullseyes worked in the mid-terms. Palin is such a liar she cannot keep her s*** straight.
