I returned home to Maine and found this story in my local Belfast paper - never heard a word on national media - have you? Are the obaminites and their MSM lackys going to put a lid on any such stories to perpetuate a "all is well under the One"? (This Cummings had recently moved to Maine from down south...)

[romanesq]

Even if they could slander the guy as a right wing nut, they would probably choose not to do so.

The threat being so real in other quarters would predicate they not do so.

[Islander7]

Are you kidding! 0bama spoke tonight. Nothing else matters.

[maine-iac7]

BTW, the wife has now been formerly charged with murder - sounds more like she should given a medal.

[GeronL]

the only reason to cover it up would be that if this idiot could do it. So could any Islamic terrorist in the US.

[smokingfrog]

Sounds like angry wife did us all a big favor.

[therut]

There is nothing racist about right wing Americian political thought. Right wing political thought in the USA is not related the European right wing thought. Risht wing in the USA in classical liberalism. Do not buy the MSM and liberal talking points.

[DB]

Ditto.

[maine-iac7]

It's reported this guy was living on a trust fund - of 10 million a year! Can you imagine the good someone could do with that - as apposed to what he was attempting to do. (He moved here from Texas.)
‘
A bit unnerving to think he was in my backyard - so to speak...only 7 miles away.

[muawiyah]

And, if he's a member of a traditional fascist group as the FBI suggested, he could well be in cohoots with a more moder Islamofascist group.

The fact this guy assembled the parts means others could do the same.

Must be why the helicopters with the monitor hanging from a cable regularly fly around this area.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Just doing what local jihadists cannot do.

If this guy were still alive, his defense would be:
“I’m just an amateur chemist” and the jury would buy it.

Maine - getting to be like Vermont.

Maine - where the lobsters are smarter than their senators.

[romanesq]

Who said anything about race? I’m talking about extremists of the Timothy McVeigh variety.

Let’s keep it square and straight forward and no, there is an American variety that does in fact have some similarities to Europe. That’s pretty inescapable.

Or where do you think skinheads derive?

[maine-iac7]

if he's a member of a traditional fascist group as the FBI suggested, he could well be in cohoots with a more moder Islamofascist group.

There was a connection between the two in the Oklahoma bombing - squelched by the gov't - according to reports

[GeronL]

must be

[anniegetyourgun]

It’s frightening to watch our media select for their own agenda....and their guy. Meanwhile, the American people don’t get any legitimate information.

[muawiyah]

There's a lot of speculation about McVeigh having connections with a right wing survivalist group in the OK City vicinity. At the same time, his little friend had a Philipina wife from an area with Islamofascist revolutionaries.

Since she wasn't involved in the crime very little material has been published about what other relationship she might have had.

Again, there's lots of speculation, and little of it squealched. There are always going to be people who think they've not been heard.

[familyop]

Neo-Nazi groups were in cahoots with Islamists during the ‘90s, too.

[muawiyah]

Just a reminder, we are Americans, not Europeans. Whatever European-isms you had should have been shed when you arrived.

The United States had its constitution, Bill of Rights and a number of other serious philosophical and political developments well underway before anyone thought to organize the French General Assembly accoring to "Left and Right".

That's basically why European Left/Right material doesn't really fit our system or politics.

The term "Islamofascist" does, however, fit our opponents in the Middle East.

[Richard Kimball]

They’ve been putting a lid on things like this for years. It’s not a Muslim terrorist attack unless there is NO WAY to avoid admitting it.

[therut]

The skinheads are not from the right wing political thought in the USA. They are from the NAZI left from Germany. There are racists of every political stripe. But racism is NOT a part of right wing political ldeology in the USA.
