Backpedal-palooza: Left no longer wants to speculate about bombers’ motives
Twitchy ^

Posted on 04/20/2013 5:31:06 AM PDT by chessplayer

It feels like only yesterday when lefties were falling all over themselves to determine the motivations of those responsible for the Boston Marathon bombing.

Oh, wait. It was only yesterday. Strange, then, how the tides have turned. Since learning that the suspected bombers are Chechen Muslims and not white Tea Partyers (sorry, Michael Moore), suddenly the Left is no longer interested in focusing on motive:

Our reaction to terrorism shouldnt be predicated on the demography of the terrorists. Sad that bigotry apparently obscures this simple truth

Someone should make a flow chart of how the LSM determines how they approach a story.

The fact that the man who discovered terrorist #2 was only outside to smoke a disgusting cigarette is pretty sad for the liberal loons as well...

Bears repeating.

We now have a valid description of an enemy should America declare a Second Amendment Revolutionary War.

Too descriptive, too niche?

watching the police presser last night before they caught the guy, some stupid reporterette actually asked the cop spokesman if they were concerned about vigilantes.

What amazes me is how they can be wrong about this again and again without being cautious next time.

They got kicked in the teeth by the truth twice this week and you just know they’ll immediately suspect conservatives next time.

Funny how the MSM is no longer speculating on why the terrorists bombed the Boston Marathon.

They just can’t seem to speak the words “For the Greater Glory of allah” that the infidels had to be killed.

We are going to learn that the muslims terrorists and terrorist mosque were well know to police but due to the current administration (both in Boston and Washington) were left alone.

That the muslim terrorists and all around them were big obama supporters.

That the failure to enforce CURRENT immigration law contributed to the bombings.

I wonder if the Republicans will use bombing victims as props as a rebuttal to an obama speech to achieve their political ends? Or would they have more class than that?

Obviously he was tricked into doing what he had done. It must have been his older brother that did it to him!!

In a week, it'll be anti-immigrant bullying that pushed the younger brother into following along with the older brother's plan. A double victim, and obviously a sure sign that we need to address even more bullying and racist opinions in schools.

This from the guy who TWICE said he hoped the bombers were white.

My liberal friends are already putting up on their Facebook pages that we shouldn’t judge Muslims by the actions of two people. We must love everybody!

Prior to this terrorism the FBI under Obama would be putting the callers on a watch list for daring to call Muslims terrorists. But now that I think of it the FBI has I assume done exactly that now in this instance by keeping the list of those callers for future hate crime and Civil Rights violations prosecutions.

AP Bans Word “Islamist”
April 5, 2013
By Sara Noble

free speech limitations

CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the unindicted co-conspriators in a terror finance trial (Holy Land Foundation) and a Hamas/Brotherhood front organization, has been lobbying the Associated Pravda to drop the term, “Islamist.”

The AP did it! They have discontinued use of the term “Islamist,” as “a synonym for Islamic fighters, militants, extremists or radicals.”

They banned “illegal immigrant” last week.

Once the press starts banning words, there will be no end. Are book burnings next?

Pretty soon, no one will know what anyone is talking about. There just won’t be the words, literally, to adequately describe a thing.

If PC isn’t an infringement on free speech, I don’t know what is.
