What continues to distress (though no longer surprise) me is that the Left keeps refusing to own them. There are much worse things than hippies out there, but for some reason the Left won't just come out and say, "Well, <i>what about</i> hippies??"

This was the eye of the storm. And the fact is, Palin not only published that crosshair poster, she left it posted till after the blood. Her inability to respond to this situation speaks volumes--some of which even some of her erstwhile supporters may be able to read.
