The "Toxic Political Tone" has had light shined on it by the Arizona shooting tragedy Saturday...

...according to the Associated Press.  But the question many of us have is, will
the Obama Administration finally take note that it was a WHITE RIGHT-
WINGER who caused this tragedy, goaded on by the day-in-day out gun-
toting, hate spewing right-wingers, (including some politicians and media
talking heads), whose ultimate solution to silencing those individuals, groups,
or countries that they refuse to co-exist with them, is to kill them.  Will the
Administration finally see that many within its own "justice" and  "security"
agencies have wrongly harassed people of peace and social concern because
of their own right-wing mindset, and have deliberately turned a blind eye to
the hatemongers on the right because of their own political sympathies? 

By reversing course and PROTECTING the First Amendment Rights of
American citizens and residents FROM those who violently want to take
those rights away, the Administration will be FINALLY doing something
towards bringing REAL security and REAL democracy.  And by
FINALLY taking steps to make it harder to obtain and possess
weapons, and by FINALLY taking steps to end U.S. military intervention
in Afghanistan, Iraq, and throughout the world, the U.S. WOULD
FINALLY be listening to, ironically, the words of a Republican President
and General of more than a half century ago, Dwight D. Eisenhower, who
said:

"EVERY GUN THAT IS MADE, EVERY WARSHIP LAUNCHED, EVERY
ROCKET FIXED SIGNIFIES, IN THE FINAL SENSE, A THEFT FROM
THOSE WHO HUNGER AND ARE NOT FED, THOSE WHO ARE COLD,
AND ARE NOT CLOTHED."
