"A family source said Bishop, a mother of four children - the youngest a third-grade boy - was a far-left political extremist who was "obsessed" with President Obama to the point of being off-putting."--Boston Herald, February 15, 2010

'Oddball' portrait of Amy Bishop emerges:

"The woman accused of killing three colleagues at the University of Alabama in Huntsville was a suspect in a 1993 attempted mail bombing, according to a report by The Boston Globe.

The report broke the day after it was learned that Bishop fatally shot her brother in Braintree in 1986.

More than fifteen years ago, Bishop worked with Sylvia Fluckiger at Children's Hospital in Boston.

"I thought she was an odd-ball. Maybe socially a little awkward," Fluckiger said.  "I felt she was a little bit sloppy working in the lab. But we were not friends. She came to do her experiments in our lab. I had my stuff to be done. We didn't hang out."

In 1993, Bishop and her husband, James Anderson, were reportedly questioned about a mail bomb that was sent to the Newton home of Harvard Medical School professor Dr. Paul Rosenberg.

Colleagues at Children's Hospital were suspicious at the time, because Bishop was apparently angry at Dr. Rosenberg, although no one knew why.

There are a couple of things I’d like to see in print. There was a reference quoted (but not explained) that she met her husband (another odd ball) “playing Dungeons and Dragons when they were both at Northeastern University.” Does anyone know if this is true? There is a sordid side of that game with some players.

Secondly: I’d like to know more about Amy’s mother and father. There has been reference that their home was a dark, unfriendly place.

I agree. I’d like to see more on that, too.

Figures. We all know that Liberalism is a Mental Disorder.

Amy Bishop is a poster-child of how 0bama-worship ends up.

The part of this whole mess that gets me is that the mother saw her daughter shoot her son. Perhaps she didn't want to lose both her children, or perhaps the story of the troubled home is very real.

From her father-in-law:

“Anderson describe Bishop as a “pacifist” who was active on campus in President Barack Obama’s campaign, adding she is a member of MoveOn.Org. “She picked that stuff up at Harvard,” he said.”

Accidental-—riiiiight. She shot three times. Then she raced to a nearby garage, pointed the gun at a mechanic there, and attempted a carjacking.

We’ll never hear the rest of the story from MSM, because they worship feminazis like Amy Bishop.

It's a special gift liberals have: they can repeat the same mistakes time, after time, after time and they're still surprised at how it turned out. Liberalism is one “accident” after another.

Harvard used to be synonymous with Conservative. Wonder what happened.
