Never let a tragedy go to waste. New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof on Monday quickly used the explosions in Boston for political gain, linking the Republican Party to the horrific act. At 4:10pm, Kristof tweeted, "explosion is a reminder that ATF needs a director. Shame on Senate Republicans for blocking apptment."
[SECOND UPDATE: More journalists are politicizing the tragedy. See below.]

Government by Reichstag fire. A lunatic Communist named Van De Lubbe — not the organized Communist party — set that 1934 fire.

Hey libiots, how about sealing our borders, to protect us from Mohammedan terrorists?

The Nazis themselves set that fire, and used Van der Lubbe as the patsy.

I have no brief for the Nazis, but John Toland says crazy Van de Lubbe did it. The Nazis just exploited in a principle later enunciated by Rahm Emmanuel of never letting a crises go to waste.

Nicholas Kristof paid good money, him and others, to organize this one. Newtown was just a hint of what they intend to do.
