“Media Morons”, proving again why they earned the title.

To be fair, it seems that it was Ross, not George, who was responsible for the slimy accusation.

Hope Tea Party Holmes has a good lawyer. He is due a big settlement from ABC News.

Strange how the timing of this tragedy is so close to the UN firearms treaty signing date that is designed to confiscate US citizen's firearms.

I am wondering whether the elder James Homes would have a case of malice to sue those bastards at ABC, inferring that someone who is a Tea Party member is a violent extremist?

Might be worth a shot...

The whole point here, I’m confident, was to invent the Tea Party association regardless of its validity. For they hope the effect might be nearly as desirable as if it were true. We know this will be overtly politicized for personal gain somehow by gun-grabbing political operatives at all levels. They will coordinate their messages with the MM soon enuff, just give them time.

I’ve enjoyed reporting by Brian Ross in the past. Today it’s clear he’s a leftist prick and unreliable.

The MSM’s rush to judgment is pathetic and despicable. But in this particular situation, how is Ross and Sniffanolpoulos any different then many of us? I know my first thought was that the perp was either Amish or an OWS activist even though I had absolutely no evidence whatsoever to support my theory. And even after LEO released the perps name, many of my fellow Freepers continued to insinuate that he’s Amish because LEO did not release his middle name.

Before you flame me, yes, I realize that unlike Ross and Sniffanolpoulos, we at FR are not broadcasting to an national audience with the intent to influence (as opposed to simply reporting facts) the weak and stupid and yes, I recognize that statistically, the chances of this being an Amish or OWS attack are far greater than the likelihood of this being a Tea Party attack, but still, the fact is that many of us — me included — assumed this was terrorist attack by the usual suspects before we even heard any of the details.

Liberal elites are so predictable in their evil.

Can you imagine the outcry if every time there was a mass murder ‘the press’ would blame a black person? Or a gay person? Liberal hate and ignorance - - bottomless...

The left is having an orgy over this. They are absolutely delighted those people were killed because they can now make some political hay about it. The lefties are claiming the NRA, Rush Limbaugh, the Tea Party, and anyone who owns a gun are guilty of these killings.

Different topic, same principle. I was flipping through cable channels and came across a show on E! (I think it is called Talk Soup?). Anyway, the host showed a reporter on FOX mentioning “Three letter word - J O B S.” We all know it was Biden who said it back when. However, the host mocked FOX and the reporter. Sure, it is E! but right now, there are sponges who won't associate the truth with the bias; then again, perhaps the host is unaware of the original remark.

It's Obama's fault. It happened on his watch and he is responsible.
Obama and the marxists are the ones creating the polarization of the country for their benefit.
This will give in Obama the needed excuse to crack down on known terrorist groups such as the Tea Party.

First the marxists divide the people, then they incite them, then they crush them.

Name spelled different. 30 years different in age? Sounds like a good slander suit to me and there actually are not very many of those. CNN has a deep pocket. Could be fun to watch.

That’s what they said about the Kathy Gifford shooter, however when it turned out he was a BHO supporter, they stopped talking about it.

Stephanolpoulos shot his wad of credibility when he championed the contraception fiasco. He’s a rabid, full-time obamapoligist, and propaganda minister.

Insofar as the “Tea Party” movement is not a political party, per se, but a LARGE group of people who believe in freedom - most, individualists at heart - trying to stereotype them is like saying that laying one brick makes you a professional bricklayer.

Whoever this guy is, he’s a cuckoo bird, probably way more brainwashed by government schools and Hollywood slash movies than Limbsugh, Hannity, or Palin. This incident just gives the leftards an excuse to try (again) to “hush Rush).

You can bet your bippie that if Stephanolpoulos and his ilk could blame them, it would be in court by Monday.

All of this crap was tried after the Fort Hood shootings, but the guy turned out to be an Obama-loving Muslim, and the MSM got eerily quiet, and the perp hasn’t even been in court yet.

I’ve listened to Rush for over 20 years, and I have never heard him advocate any kind of violence or rebellion. In fact, he discourages it because he knows it plays right into the liberals game plan.

He more or less only exposes liberal lies, and encourages people to do their “rebellion” at this ballot box.

Stephanolpoulos and the MSM are seizing this opportunity to play one-upmanship for the Ft. Hood massacre embarrassment to their dear leader.

We knew all this was coming, and it’s no surprise. The media is “one-note-Johnny”, or “one-note-Barry”, as it were. All hoping for a ride on Air Force One, and a mint under their pillow, they’re getting their asses whipped in the ratings by Rus, Hannity, and FOX News, and it Gauls the to the core.

A media who can make a three-day story out of snow flurries in Florida will most certainly drone on about this for weeks to come. But the best way to handle it, is as little reaction as possible from the right. Their accusations are theirs to prove, the burden is on them. Reaction is only throwing wood on the fire.

Anyone knows that if a person can be driven to this kind of heinous act by listening to a radio talk show, was highly unstable to begin with.

The Tea Party? The Tea Party is quite possibly the last hope for this great country. Killing a bunch if innocent people in a dark theatre would do nothing to further the cause of freedom, and conservatives know that very well. It ain’t gonna happen.

How do we know that the guns that Holmes used weren’t from “Fast and Furious”? “Ridiculous”, you say? But it is just as plausible as any thing the left wing media saying.

Fight fire, with fire.
