Latest Evidence Nothing has Changed in post-Tucson America:"Who is Going to Shoot President Obama?"

“Here’s the latest evidence that nothing has changed in post-Tucson America…” Writes Justin Elliott in Salon:

A person at a Tuesday town hall with Rep. Paul Broun, R-Ga., got up and asked, “Who is going to shoot President Obama?”The exact wording of the question is not clear because, the Athens Banner-Herald reports, there was a lot of noise at the event.

If you don’t know the “exact wording,” why do you have some words in quotes? This non-quote has gone viral in the leftosphere, the leftosphere where no one seems to mind all the violent and over-the-top language and imagery at the week-long Wisconsin protests.

If you don’t have that quote, why are you spewing it out there? Maybe what hasn’t changed post-Tucson is you?

Seriously. Why put out a quote that you don’t have? You’re trying to stir people up and create discord! You are the problem you are talking about? Do you have any self-awareness at all?The question prompted a “big laugh” from the crowd, in Oglethorpe County, Ga., according to the Banner-Herald.

Broun, for his part, did not object to the question. He said in response:”The thing is, I know there’s a lot of frustration with this president…”And now, you want to attribute incivility to Broun, but you don’t know what he heard.

He mentions the president, so presumably, he caught that it was something anti-Obama, but beyond that you are making stuff up.If the crowd was so big, and it was a planned event, where’s the digital video?

Don’t tell me the crowd was too noisy for anyone to record it AND that the crowd heard it.
