Please... Are you serious? Did you read the article? This is what it said... “There’s a Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado, page on the Colorado Tea Party site as well, talking about him joining the Tea Party last year,” said Ross. “Now, we don’t know if this is the same Jim Holmes. But it’s Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado.” --- "...we don't know..." That says it all. Only the leftist media would pull a name out of a hat and strongly suggest that it's the same guy.

The Tea Party and Jim Holmes (no relation to the Colorado shooter, James Holmes) should sue ABCNews out of business for libel, slander, character defamation, and associated damages. ABCNews issues retraction and apology for linking shooter to Tea Party. politico.com excerpt: ABC News and Brian Ross are apologizing for an "incorrect" report that James Holmes, the suspect in the Colorado theater shooting, may have had connections to the Tea Party. "An earlier ABC News broadcast report suggested that a Jim Holmes of a Colorado Tea Party organization might be the suspect, but that report was incorrect," ABC News said in a statement. "ABC News and Brian Ross apologize for the mistake, and for disseminating that information before it was properly vetted." In a similar statement released minutes earlier, ABC News said the report was "incorrect" but did not include the apology. "Several other local residents with similar names were also contacted via social media by members of the public who mistook them for the suspect," the initial statement read.
