Fox Salutes....
Dorwan Stoddard and his wife, Mavanell, grew up together as friends in Tucson, and were high-school sweethearts in the 1950s. The two parted, moved away, and married others.

Redstate: Outspoken Sheriff Accused Of Dismissing Loughner Death Threats
Jared Loughner has been making death threats by phone to many people in Pima County including staff of Pima Community College, radio personalities and local Bloggers. When Pima County Sheriff's Office was informed, his deputies assured the Victims that he was being well managed by the Mental Health system. It was also suggested that further pressing of charges would be unnecessary and probably cause more problems than it solved as Jared Loughner has a family member that works for Pima County. Th...

Loughner Conviction Could Come Down To Why Judge Was At Giffords Event
Whether Jared Lee Loughner is convicted federally of killing Federal Judge John McCarthy Roll could come down simply to why he showed up to Saturday's event with Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ). In the Criminal Complaint filed against Jared Lee Loughner, the FBI is building the case that U.S District Court Judge John Roll attended Rep. Gabrielle Giffords "Congress on your Corner" not by chance or on a social visit, but for official government business. So why does Roll's reason for attending t...

An American Terrorist in Tucson Arizona
But soon after the murderous carnage and massacre by this Terrorist, too many American political figures and the American Media, have insistently badgered the American public with the fact that the terrorist is certifiably a lunatic! It leaves me again, wondering aloud about these permanent double standards and hypocrisies in America. First of all, this Terrorist, were he an Arab, or an African or an African American, he will be castigated as a monster, animal, bloodlust terrorist hoodlum. But f...

Tragedy in Arizona
Gabrielle Giffords was doing what members of Congress do every week: She was home in Tucson to meet with her constituents. Today, Giffords lies in critical condition in a Tucson Hospital after one of those constituents opened fire with a semiautomatic Handgun. Six people died in the attack; 14 were injured. The madness at the Tucson shopping center Saturday morning raises old and troubling questions about gun violence in America and threatens a treasured American tradition: the right of the pe...

Well, Well, Well. Jared Loughner Is A Registered Independent.
As pundits and politicians on both sides of the political spectrum call for everyone to “just get along!” while taking aim at one another, news has come out that Jared Loughner , the 22-year-old who opened fire on a crowd outside a Tucson, Arizona Safeway while Rep.

Paul Krugman's totalitarian temptation
Was President Obama encouraging Murder during his 2008 campaign when he said, "If they bring a knife ... we bring a gun"? Was he encouraging political violence when he said more recently of the new Republican House majority that "we are going to have just hand-to-hand combat up here on Capitol Hill"? Of course not. Similarly, former Pennsylvania Democratic Rep. Paul Kanjorski was speaking allegorically in October when he said Florida Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Rick Scott should "be lined...

This should ruffle some conservative, Extremist moose fur, and I don’t care at ...
