Big Lie
The Obama camp will say pretty much anything to distract from three and a half years of 8% unemployment. A Romney aid defended Mitt against accusations of complicity in the cancer death of the wife a laid off former employee, by reminding us of Romney Care. Even Obama doesn’t mention Obama Care. Needless to say, conservatives aren’t happy.
Colorado Shooting Jokers
ABC news had to apologize for a Brian Ross report that James Holmes, the Colorado shooting suspect, might be a member of the Tea Party. (Read more about the ABC News Colorado shooting apology.)
Tea Partiers are mostly middle aged conservatives who believe in the constitution and clean up their own messes, but their fiendish foes continue to portray them as violent radicals.
Here’s a John Kass column from the Chicago Tribune about political bias and the Colorado Massacre.
Dark Knight Rises Shooting
James Holmes, the suspect in the “Dark Knight Rises” shooting in Aurora, Colorado wore a gas mask and bullet proof vest. The character, Bane, in the movie wore the same. Some witnesses initially thought the shooter was part of the show.
Here’s a review of “The Dark Knight Rises” by Jenny McCartney for the Daily Telegraph. McCartney complained in the piece, written before the attack, that the level of violence in films has become less cartoon like and more realistic and sadistic.
Meanwhile, ABC News has done it again. Brian Ross wrongly reported that Holmes may have Tea Party connections. An apology has been issued. Read ABC News coverage of the Dark Knight Rises Shooting.
Kill List
According to the NYT, it’s no more Mr. Nice Guy for the president. On Tuesdays President Obama personally selects, from a stack of cards, a terrorist to be killed. The way the news has been this week, I guess we should be thankful he doesn’t eat the condemned. Some are fine with the killing part, not so much the hypocrisy. Others, however, don’t believe the Commander in Chief job description includes judge, jury, and executioner.
