Well that certainly didn’t take to long did it. Members of our stellar state controlled media, those who are determined to never let a good tragedy go to waste, especially if there are guns involved and if they can somehow finagle a way to pin it all on those crazy Bible clinging conservatives. They thought for sure that the nut who shot Gabrielle 'Gabby' Giffords was some guy who got that way by listening to either Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh or perhaps Sean Hannity, but as it turned out, the guy was a flaming lib. But that hasn't stopped them from suggesting that James Holmes, the suspect in today's shooting in Aurora, Colorado, may actually have a connection to the Tea Party. Actually, this type of behavior would be much closer to something that could have been thought up and executed by any of the miscreants who are part of that union sponsored crowd referred to Occupy Wall Street.
Anyway, it was ABC News resident moron, Brian Ross who reported this morning that there is "a Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado, page on the Colorado Tea party site... talking about him joining the Tea Party last year." Thinking that he may, although he was probably y pretty sure he wasn't, be jumping to conclusions, he went on to say, "Now, we don't know if this is the same Jim Holmes," Ross cautioned "but it's Jim Holmes of Aurora, Colorado." What moron. That's same idiotic crap we saw from Spike Lee when he put the address of the wrong George Zimmerman on his Twitter page. And funny thing, ABC News is the only network or cable news channel to suggest a possible Tea Party connection, according to a survey of the TV Eyes database at 9:30 a.m. ET, though they did not verify that the two individuals were one and the same.
The report has already set off alarm bells on the right. At Brietbart.com, the conservative news site, Joel Pollak has accused ABC News of "scapegoating." "How interesting that Ross and ABC News should think to look to the Tea Party website first--and to broadcast politically volatile information without verifying if that 'Jim Holmes' is the same as the suspect," Pollak writes. "Look for more scapegoating from the mainstream media and the Democrats in the hours and days to follow." But hey, that's how this scum works. They use the grief of those who lost a loved one to advance their sick and twisted political agenda. ABC did backtrack a bit, later and issued a rather lame apology for 'jumping the gun in it's eagerness to place blame for this horrific event on the Tea Party. ABC News and Brian Ross are apologizing for an "incorrect" report that James Holmes, the suspect in the Colorado theater shooting, may have had connections to the Tea Party.
And on that same topic here, even though he didn't rush to place blame on the Tea Party or imply any connection, we also of course had adding his voice to the call for gun control, Democrat/Republican/Independent Michael Bloomberg, who happens to be one of the nation’s highest-profile supporters of gun control, hopping onboard the old crazy gun control train, saying on Friday that “soothing words are nice ” but demanded that the presidential candidates “stand up and tell us what they’re going to do about” preventing mass shootings. Asked about the shootings at an Aurora, Colo., movie theater showing “The Dark Knight Rises” that killed at least 12 people, Bloomberg said that Barry "Almighty" and Mitt Romney need to offer specific policy proposals, in addition to prayers and sympathy. Now I think we know what Barry's plan would be, we're already seeing that play out through his stealth attempt of using the United Nations. Romney needs to make clear his support for the 2nd Amendment.
Bloomberg said during, what I guess was an episode of his regularly scheduled appearance on WOR 710 AM in New York, that, “But maybe it’s time the two people who want to be president of the United States stand up and tell us what they’re going to do about it, because this is obviously a problem across the country. And everybody always says, ‘Isn’t it tragic?’” “I mean, there’s so many murders with guns every day,” Bloomberg continued. “It’s just gotta stop. And instead of these two people, President [Barack] Obama and Governor [Mitt] Romney talking in broad things about, they want to make the world a better place. OK, tell us how. And this is a problem. No matter where you stand on the Second Amendment, no matter where you stand on guns, we have a right to hear from both of them, concretely, not just in generalities, specifically, what are they going to do about guns?” Barry's been mum on the whole issue of gun control, and this close to the election he's gonna stay that way.
Bloomberg went on to suggest most of the nation’s governors should also make their stances clear, and said the problem wasn’t limited to major cities like New York. “This is killing people every day,” he said. “And it’s growing. And it’s not just an inner city, East Coast, West Coast, big city phenomenon. Aurora is not a big city, it’s a suburb of Denver. … The murder rate in the rural areas is as just as bad, if not worse than the murder rate in the urban areas.” But while the problem is nation-wide, he also said it was uniquely American. “I don’t think there’s any other developed country in the world that has remotely the problem we have,” Bloomberg said. “There’s no other place that allows — we have more guns than people in this country. Every place else, if there are murders, they’re generally not done with guns.” And that's the argument these people always us. But look at the crime rates and murder rates in the majority of countries that he compares us to.
You would think that Mikey would be much better off if he were to spend a bit more of his time on his city's 10 percent unemployment rate and his desire to prevent folks from having access to their Big Gulps. Mr. "Nanny State" himself really doesn't have all that much credibility on any issue unless, of course, you happen to be of a like political mind. In which case I feel sorry for you. Mike, like every other liberal, would just love to have a completely unarmed citizenry. It's another one of their wet dreams that ranked right up there with being able to control our healthcare. And now that they've managed to seize total control of that their most logical next step is to try to seize our guns. That we must not allow to happen. And stoked by their success Democrats are nearly salivating in the hopes of they're being able to yank our guns from our hands. When faced with a government that has become so out of control, the very last thing we need to be doing is giving up our guns.
