In last Thursday’s column, Paul Krugman admitted
to having fun watching “right-wingers go wild.” One of the things that
apparently delighted him was this map which Sarah Palin posted on her
Facebook page:
...
Each of the cross-hairs represents a Democrat from a conservative
district who voted in favor of health reform. Immediately after
highlighting the map, Krugman wrote:
All of this goes far beyond politics as usual…you’ll
search in vain for anything comparably menacing, anything that even
hinted at an appeal to violence, from members of Congress, let alone
senior party officials….to find anything like what we’re seeing now you
have to go back to the last time a Democrat was president.
Really, Paul? I’ll search in vain?
The map appears on this page
of the Democratic Leadership Committee website (dated 2004 during the
Bush years). I guess we could argue over whether the DLC counts as
“senior party officials” but they’re certainly as much a part of the
party as Palin who, after all, currently holds no elected office.
