Identifying the Enemy
Some nutjob just flew his plane into an office building in Austin Texas. There was an IRS office in that building. As of this minute, 10:50 a.m. mountain time there is precious little information about the pilot and his reasons for going kamikaze. BUT, right now, I guarandamn T you, some leftist fruitcakes are already writing their articles about the evil right wing militias and their blood brothers, those tea partiers. Rightwing extremist crazies clinging to their guns and religion. The same un-American zealots who caused Timothy McVey to go off the deep end.
Watch closely as this thing develops. The quickest lefties out of the box assigning blame to evil right wing tea party types are the enemy. I've got my money on the Southern Poverty Law Center. RADICAL leftist group who think that if we had open borders, confiscated all the guns, imprisoned militia members, outlawed conservatism, etc. ad nauseum, then this country would be just fine. Last night their spokesman/head idiot went after the Oathkeepers on O'Reilly.
Other likely hatemongers who will pop up. NY Times columnist Frank Rich, Matthews, Olberman, and Maddow on MSNBC, The Brady Bunch, Mayor of New York City Michael Bloomberg, Janet Napolitano, Eric stud/fail Holder, MoveOn.org, anti-defamation league (ADL), anything associated with George Soros, etc. etc. ad nauseum. But you get my point.
It will be a fringe person or organization like the ones I just mentioned, but watch how quickly the Mainstream Media will jump on their theory once it is floated. This is going to get ugly.
It will also be interesting to see how the White House plays this. When terrorist Hassan shot up Ft. Hood, Mr. Obama was quick out of the box to say, " we don't want to jump to any conclusions." When his far left allies trot out their hate filled linkage theories about the pilot and far right extremist gun toters, we'll see about jumping too soon.
Watch carefully for the word "terrorist" to be assigned to the pilot of the plane. The Obama administration resolutely avoided using the T word when the Ft. Hood terrorist attack occurred.
Because there was an IRS office in the building, another play for the far left will be the characterization of those opposed to higher taxes being "unpatriotic." Unpatriotic, militia Rambo, homophobic, xenophobic, and GASP..... Oh NO.....christians. They actually like Sarah Palin.
Get your club, and get ready to play whack a mole.
UPDATE: He's a loon. Big online diatribe against the government, taxes, even the Catholic Church. The moles are alllllllllmost ready to pop out of the ground. Get ready.
UPDATE: We have a WINNER. Whack! Plenty more to come.
UPDATE: From Daily Koss. Obviously Stack was not a mentally healthy person, and he was embittered at capitalism, including crony capitalism, and health insurance companies and the government. Reading larger political motives into this action would be preliminary, until more information emerges about whether he actually has been involved in any political movement like the teabaggers. But it should inject a bit of caution into the anti-government flame-throwers on the right. Well excuse me, but if it is too preliminary to be reading things into this, why do you read things into it in the same sentence, and the next one as well? That's a winner. Whack!
UPDATE: a TWOFER! We get both Chris Matthews from MSNBC and Mark Potok from the Southern Poverty Law Center making the evil linkage. The action starts at about 3:40 in the vid. WHACK!
UPDATE: Another Winner. Time Magazine. And another winner: From New York Magazine,,,,,,, He was mad at the IRS, and left what CNN reports was a suicide note on a local website, detailing his trials with the agency. In fact, a lot of his rhetoric could have been taken directly from a handwritten sign at a tea party rally. WHACK! WHACK!

Sigh, alas, you are doubtless correct. I'll have to listen to Mark Levin tonight, he'll be one of those blamed.
Amazing! Your prediction skills are amazing!
Anyone mention Palin, yet?
I'll bet Chris' leg is REALLY tingling for a chance to link this act to EEEVIL conservatives. And expected no less from the Kids.
Kos- the anti-capitalist, anti insurance company poster child is too obtuse to realise this was his blood brother?
No big surprise, really.
There's no sport in what you're doing, Stephen. They're just as predictable as Pavlov's dogs. Like the proverbial "shootin' fish in a barrel." Talk about a tgt-rich environment! Like hunting on baited fields... Shame on you!
