What we need is statesmen, not politicians.

The Giffords shooting makes me ashamed for my country.

Stateswomen don't mark their opponents with cross-hairs, as if they should be shot. Sarah Palin does.
Statesmen don't advocate shooting their opponents. Jessy Kelly does. http://azstarnet.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/elections/article_349e18b8-ec64-5fd7-b347-afe7f1778a47.html

If we believe patriotism is going around shooting everyone who holds a different opinion, then we are no better than the terrorists we are fighting around the world. If this is the Tea Party way, then the terrorists have won, and already taken down what makes America great.
