The attack on the Pelosi family

[kairos12]

was an attempted assassination of the person 2nd in line to the Presidency. She just wasn’t home for the attempt.

1. Absolutely!

2. I wouldn't leap to the assumption that this nutcase knew anything about Presidential Succession...

4. People may not be as stupid as you think they are.

Or so it seems to me.

5. From this guy's rants, I'm not giving him a lot of intellectual credit at this point.

6. Well, we have very little reliable information on which to base

our opinions of the assailant, it seems to me. It appears likely that Nancy Pelosi was his target. I ask myself why that is the case, and the answer includes the possibility that the assailant was aware of her position as a successor to the presidency.

It's hardly a secret.

3. If she would have been home...

She woulda pounded that guy eight ways 'til Sunday...

7. I pointed that out when correcting a WaPo headline.

The media needs to stop calling this a "break in" or "attempted attack." It was a fucking assassination attempt!
