FOX News and all other news networks have been covering the breaking story of the alleged assassin [Jared Loughner] who murdered Judge John M. Roll and at least four others at a Safeway store in Tucson, AZ. Rep. Giffords was shot in the head and is still fighting for her life. Her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, rushed to Arizona to be at his wife's side.
UPDATE1: Jack Cashill in American Thinker echoes what many conservative blogs and news sites have been expressing, that this mass shooting will be used as a club to beat the Tea Party with, regardless of the facts in this case. Meanwhile, the search continues for a second suspect who may have served as an accomplice to the shooter.
UPDATE2: Erick Erickson of Redstate.com comments on the politicization of this mass shooting.
UPDATE3: The Associated Press reports that the "person of interest" is no longer considered a suspect in the assassination attempt on Rep. Giffords. He is a taxi driver who just happened to take Loughner to the shopping center and knew nothing of his intentions once he got there. Breitbart's Big Government reveals yet another instance where Democrats are anxious not to let this crisis go to waste by blaming the Tea Party, Sarah Palin, etc.
