Before Keith Olbermann accused Rep. Michelle Bachmann of fomenting a rebellion, MSNBC's David Shuster had already hiked the old hyperbole trail. Sitting in for Ed Schultz on The Ed Show, Shuster insisted the rally opposing President Obama's socialized medicine bill "had all the trappings of a proverbial orgy of bigotry, racism, anti-Semitism, and hate!" In fact, one sign alleged contained "a reference to right-wing claims that the president is secretly a Muslim terrorist!" (Emphasis Shuster's.)
As usual, he could not produce these references to racism, anti-Semitism, or Obama-secretly-got-Islamic-terrorist-training-ism. Even the Huffington Post with its "12 Most Offensive Signs from Bachmann's Tea Party" found only one sign (a reference to Dachau) that was over-the-top. Despite the underwhelming nature of his evidence, Shuster pumped up the hate.

And doesn’t Schuster keep getting time-outs from MSNBC for bring too stupid even for them?
Their constant sliming of Michelle Bachmann isn’t working any better than their sliming of Sarah Palin. If the nut-left hates you, you’re doing good work.
