Sarah Palin Accuses Critics of ‘Blood Libel’ (Video)

Sarah Palin responds to critics -- regarding her map with cross hairs targeting Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) -- with a video statement accusing critics of employing 'blood libel,' a term that invites yet more criticism. Meanwhile Congressman James Clyburn (S.C.) takes the debate to a new low by claiming that he is Sarah Palin's intellectual superior.



Palin Goes Nuclear With 'Blood Libel' Speech: "Blood libel, for those who are not familiar, describes a false accusation that minorities—usually Jews—murder children to use their blood in religious rituals, and has been a historical theme in the persecution of the Jewish people. Had Palin scoured a thesaurus, she could not have come up with a more inflammatory phrase."
