Who Has Handled This Jared Lee Loughner Situation Well In The News And In Politics?


Not many people I can say have handled this well. From what info I have I have come up with a few decent people who have handled this situation better than others:
*Barack Obama(focused solely on the victims all weekend and didn’t politicize it)
*John Boehner(gave a nice speech Sunday morning also focusing only on the victims and nothing more)
*Elliot Spitzer(I never thought I would congratulate this guy for anything but he reported it fairly on his show last night) who pointed out on his show that the man’s favorite books ranged from Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto to Mein Kampf making it more difficult to actually affiliate him with a party
*Stephanie Condon, a journalist for CBS News, who reported the man was a registered independent and also didn’t polarize the situation( http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-2… )
*CNN in general for reporting this as fairly as they could and not just Eliot Spitzer(http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/201…
* Greg Gutfeld & Bill Schultz & Andy Levy for not pointing fingers and also reporting it fairly(and Gutfeld added on to the books Spitzer listed by adding an Ayn Rand book which really makes this confusing) and saying that the man’s attacks were not politically motivated from what info he has
I have seen a lot of disgusting rhetoric from both sides trying to capitalize on this tragedy. Now, I am not saying the people I listed have not done this, in fact I could be wrong in my judgments and I know there are people I am missing(hence why I asked this), but from what info I have I have drawn this conclusion and would like to add on to it.
Look what this guy posted on his myspace by the way:http://www.examiner.com/us-headlines-in-…
Anyways, who has handled this well?

Very Frustrating Situation For Employment And Tuition Fees?(uk Answers Please)?


ok, im sorry to be so self pitying here but I need some good advice. I recently graduated from uni with a bare pass degree.
It was disappointing considering I was ,in high school, an A grade student. I worked my socks off at school and felt when the results paid off and when I was done with the all-paid place in a prestigious uni I managed to be accepted into then the world would be at my finger tips.
But I took ill n I had to drop out in my final year and then i had to PAY about 1000 to sit my final year which meant I couldn’t save to go on any work placements abroad.
I then took ill again, (auto immune) had to study very late for exams and got a ok result considering, but despite this my lecturers told me in my second year that I would get a first class cert as I was showing very high grades from 1st year.
I cannot get employment just now as I keep getting informed that they want years of work experience or a higher degree award .
My catch 22 is that when applying for a post graduate place uni’s (so i can improve my grade) all refuse me on my final grade, so i cant improve it and cant get a job.
I have asked companies for work experience and they told me they can’t offer anything as I’m not studying or and undergraduate (this is for internships) . For work placements over seas you have to be affiliated to a uni so I cant do that and independant companies come at a high cost as do other paid qualifications. As competition is so high for both employment and education Im finding myself in between a rock and a hard place being told by the job centre to “try harder” .
I wasnt to emigrate but cant as i do have an illness (and the NHS is free) . My life is a stale mate just not. I see old high school folks who left school with nothing now in good jobs and I am questioning my life choices . I love learning and its killing me not being able to do aNYTHING with my qualities.
