There's an enormous amount of attention focused on Sarah Palin's targeting of Giffords last year.

Last March 25th, Giffords was on MSNBC after her office was vandalized. The Congresswoman talked about being on that targeted list of Sarah Palin, noting "the way that she has it depicted has the crosshairs of a gun sight over our district.
