quote:

Sandy Rios on her radio show today was joined by her boss, American Family Association president Tim Wildmon, to discuss the bombing at the Boston marathon, and said the attack “reminds” her of when the Roman emperor Nero “burned Rome” and then “blamed Christians.”

“It’s that psychological process of blaming people that you hate so that they will take the blame for something and it solves two problems for you,” Rios claimed. “So this is nothing new.”

Rios accused the Obama administration of trying to stop security officials from referencing Islam while supposedly identifying conservatives, like gun owners and AFA radio listeners, as “enemies on equal footing with Islamists.”

She said that this alleged policy makes America “less safe” while WILDMON CRITICIZED THE MEDIA FOR SAYING THAT THE BOMBING COULD HAVE BEEN AN “ANTI-GOVERNMENT” ATTACK WHEN HE THINKS IT WAS ALMOST CERTAINLY AN ACT OF “ISLAMIC JIHADISM.”

Glenn k: Muslims Responsible for Boston Bombing Because American Terrorists Always Target the Government
quote:

Last night, Glenn Beck went on the air shortly after the bombing at the Boston Marathon happened and even though very little was known at the time, Beck understandably felt obligated to cover it.

It was fascinating to watch the reporters who actually work for The Blaze try to do their job of reporting what is actually known while answering questions from Beck, who is under no such constraints and feels free to just randomly speculate about how THIS COULDN'T HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT BY AN AMERICAN, BECAUSE AMERICANS WHO DO THINGS LIKE THIS ALWAYS TARGET THE GOVERNMENT, NOT STREETS FILLED WITH PEOPLE [tell that to Eric Rudolph, the pro-life Atlanta Olympics bomber.]

Beck also speculated that WE MIGHT NEVER KNOW THE "TRUE STORY" OF WHAT HAPPENED BECAUSE THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IS SOFT OF ISLAMIC TERRORISM AND DOESN'T THINK AL QAEDA EXISTS, SO THEY WILL HAVE TO "SPIN THIS" TO HIDE THE TRUTH IF IT WAS CARRIED OUT BY ISLAMIC EXTREMISTS.

Tea Party Nation: Boston Attack Occurred Because Obama Administration Is 'Not Committed to Protecting America'
quote:

In an email to members today, TEA PARTY NATION HEAD JUDSON PHILLIPS CLAIMED THAT THE BOSTON MARATHON BOMBING OCCURRED BECAUSE “WE HAVE A GOVERNMENT THAT IS NOT COMMITTED TO PROTECTING AMERICA” SINCE IT ISN’T WILLING TO “DESTROY RADICAL ISLAM.”

Fox-News Contributor Erik Rush: Kill All Muslims in Response to Boston Marathon Attack
quote:

Earlier today, there was an apparent bombing near the finish line of the Boston Marathon that, according to preliminary reports, has left two people dead and dozens more injured.

In response, and utterly without any evidence, frequent Fox News contributor Erik Rush tweeted out a message blaming the bombing on Muslim terrorists, saying
quote:

"Everybody do the National Security Ankle Grab! Let's bring more Saudis in without screening them! C'mon! #bostonmarathon."

That prompted another Twitter user to chastize Rush for making such unsupported accusations, which prompted Rush to respond with a call for all Muslims to be killed:
quote:

Bill Schmalfeldt @bloodonthemike:
@erikrush Sweet God. ARE YOU ALREADY BLAMING MUSLIMS?

quote:

Eric Rich @ericrush:
@bloodonthemike: YES. THEY’RE EVIL. LET’S KILL THEM ALL.

Last, but definitely not least, we have Alex Jones and his gang claiming that the bombs were placed and set off by the FBI as part of a "false flag operation"..

We won't know shit for days. It is irresponsible to speculate as to the who and why, and more irresponsible to place the blame. And FD, glazing over left wing nut jobs making ass assumptions to point out right wing nut jobs making ass assumptions is nothing more than making a tragedy serve your own political agenda.......

Thank you for the voice of reason. I won't even turn on the TV today because I can't stand the hyperbole being spewed by the right and the left. Let the authorities figure this one out. That's what they're paid to do, and they have the tools and experts to do it.

I worked for 8 hours, nobody was at the lodge for 3 of the hours and I didn't even open my email. I watched a rerun of Bones, learned how to use the online version of our reporting software and took an online training course (but didn't take the test yet). And then I emailed my boss to tell him that I was going home and taking vacation time and people started wandering in so I stayed for the rest of the shift.

Status: offline 		About the only thing I can say is that IMO this wasn't some big, organized terrorist group, given the kind of devices they were using, gunpowder in a pressure cooker with ball bearings and tacks can be (unfortunately) effective, but it is amateur hour , probably picked up from crap on the net. A real terrorist group would use more sophisticated explosives, much more bang for the buck.

Yeah, I heard the same thing, some pundit was going on about right wing groups in NPR, and of course, the right is immediately blaming Muslims (I am surprised they also aren't claiming God did this in response to Mass having same sex marriage). We don't know who did this, or why, it could also be someone disgruntled, someone who blames the country moving towards same sex marriage because Mass started it, someone wanted to run in the race and wouldn't let them, who the heck knows. It could be some muslim pissed off, it could be a right wing anti government type (I would love to remind Glenn Beck and the rest about Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, to cracker scum anti government right wing types who killed 173), we dont know and it is possible may never know. If it was Al Qaeda or some such they would have taken credit, which makes me further believe it was someone with a grudge. Could also be someone like George Metesky, the Mad Bomber of NY fame, who blew uo public places (but made sure not to hurt anyone), but who gained a little sympathy by bombing Con Ed, NY'ers public enemy number1..

Right now I try not to care, 3 people are dead, including a little boy, and his sister lost both her legs and his mom is in seriously fucked up shape. My only hope is they catch the garbage who did this, and either bury them in some cell 24 hours a day in solitary, or they make them eat white castle hamburgers until they explode....

The US left are pretty much quietly shitting their pants at the prospect that the responsible party will be a frustrated Occupier/ists, as we had in the attempted bridge bombing a few months back.

I think they are right to be.

I'm confused. I associate with both "left" and "occupy" and I just want whoever did this found. If their on "my team" then I doubly want them found because shit like that I don't need on my team.

Well, sure, Jeff, but you seem to be a thinking leftist, of consistent values. Unfortunately, the time to have kicked the anarchists off the team would have been during the shitting on a police car stage.

I'm guessing this was domestic, and most likely an individual. As I've noted elsewhere, we could be talking about a fat chainsmoker who reached his breaking point with health nuts.

Just because people want to ignore what could have happened with the bridge bombers doesn't mean it didn't happen. We've gotten very lucky with wanna-be bombers getting funneled into an FBI controlled path to failure and prison, but this guy (assuming a lone attacker) went crude, simple, and right off common retail shelves. Jihadist, or anarchist, if there is any sort of ideology that is within normal comprehension (and that's being generous to the anarchists).

I believe this is a first! I have never heard any one describe Fox as spewing 'leftish hyperbole'! I know that what passes for Right and Left in the USA is pretty different to everywhere else but even by American standards, Fox isn't known as a bastion of the Left .....

I suppose there's a first for everything!
