Media Matters CEO David Brock

Has this idiot ever listened to Glenn Beck?

Obviously not.

Yesterday Beck asked everyone from both sides and the middle of the political spectrum to join him in rejecting violence.

Same message given my Ghandi and Martin Luther King.

This is why we need to be careful with the Westboro case. It has to be about the church intruding on people's personal grief and not about free speech. Liberals would like to use it as an angle to legislate against talk radio and internet bloggers among others.

Clyburn and Kerry make asses of themselves:

That's BOB Kerry - guess he doesn't want that doofus in MA getting all the attention.


.... In a rambling interview on the radio with Ed Schultz, Clyburn complains about people attempting to “delegitimize the President” and suggested that the reading of the Constitution in Congress last week had something to do with the shooting. Real Clear Politics has the audio [see update II]:
“All [of] this stuff taking place in the Chambers the other day, when the Constitution was being read — all that stuff is uncalled for,” Rep. Clyburn (D-SC) told the Ed Schultz radio program.
Clyburn says there may be a “direct link” between Sharron Angle’s “Second Amendment remedies” comment and the reading of the Constitution with the attempted murder of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords over the weekend.
Of course, no one has ever heard the Constitution without committing a murder spree, so obviously Clyburn is on the right track here.

Kerrey says that the perp was “mentally ill and deeply troubled,” and therefore Kerrey said he would demur from making too much of his political beliefs — right after Kerrey announces that the attack was motivated by the upcoming vote to repeal ObamaCare. Click the image to watch the clip from today’s Imus show:

"Tomorrow they were going to vote to repeal this health care bill — and it’s not going to go anywhere in the Senate — it’s one of the reasons that this guy was angry and pretty obvious that he is, at least from me, where I sit that he’s mentally ill and deeply troubled."
