Maddow Worries McVeigh's 'Voice from the Grave' Echoes, as She Plays His Old Interviews
Newsbusters ^ | April 20, 2010 | Jeff Poor

For weeks, MSNBC has advertised Rachel Maddow's two-hour special broadcast about the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah building. This special, aired on the 15-year anniversary of that bombing, was billed as a way for viewers to see what can happen if anti-government sentiment gets out of control.

"So tonight, exactly 15 years later, this special edition of ‘The Rachel Maddow Show' brings you the inside story of the Oklahoma City bombing," Maddow said on her April 19 broadcast. "MSNBC obtained 45 hours of audio tape interviews in which Timothy McVeigh describes the planning and the executions and the motivations behind his horrific attack. This is a detailed account as it has never before been heard, told to us by the terrorist himself."

Funny how nobody will show "a way for viewers to see what can happen if pro-government sentiment gets out of control."

Make no mistake about this.

The left is wanting, wishing, hoping for another OKC.

That is the only reason they are talking non-stop about OKC, Mcveigh et al...

For them, nothing would be sweeter than to have some kook come out and do something like OKC.

Its what they want and they are trying as best they can to stoke the fire in hope of provoking some nut to do something.

Its disgusting!

Seems like Rachel is wistfully hoping that McVeigh’s voice will inspire follow on violence

Next week, more nostalgia for the past as we listen to Hitler’s “ Mein Kamp” in his own voice

It can be counter productive. I’d almost forgotten they did a false flag operation and blew up their own building 15 years ago.

It’d figure that Rachel would have Adolf’s audiobook. ;-)

Memo to Ms. Maddow: Dachau was originally built in 1932-33 to house political prisoners. Those who don't remember the past are doomed to repeat it. In general, Tea Partiers know their history more than any other group.

Thank you! Seriously! Ever since I heard Clinton’s comments, I’ve been thinking, “What’s wrong in this picture? Demonizing citizens is good; questioning our employees is bad.”

They say “The peasants are revolting” with a sneer, while the peasants are starting to scowl...

They are cranking the volume up to 11 on this right wing violence thing. Things must look far worse for the democrats than even we realize.

Quite the coincidence that the journalists in all the MSM outlets, and even CAIR, got the same idea for something to report and talk about at the same time.

The liberal state controlled media has received its orders from the White House to play up the Oklahoma City bombing as “domestic terrorism” and then make connections with the Tea Party movement. It is sickening how the MSM all march in lockstep with a single point of view and seem to be working from the same set of talking points. No wonder most Americans choose get their news from Fox and the Internet.

I agree.

It reminds me of Pelosi with her gavel leading the Black Caucus past the teapartiers in D.C.--fishing for trouble and when none happened, lied by charging that one congressman had been spit on and another called the "n-word."

Libs lie!

We’ll find out in November. They might just have voter fraud perfected by then.

What ever happened to the idea of not politicizing a tragedy.

That's all the left whined about Sept. 11.

Now they are more than happy to try to use Oklahoma City as a political club. The reality is Clinton bears the blame for it as well as it was a response to the Waco massacre (not saying it was justified - just pointing out who is actually to blame for it)

Would LOVE to see the internal polling of the dems.

They must be atrocious!

This POS was Maddow’s way of praying to Alinsky for another OKC so that the cadres can finally move on their blacklists and deliver swift justice to the enemies of the class struggle for once and for all.

The only way you get your ratings up is to piss off the conservatives.
