somehow he finds a way to blame any situation all on the Dems. The talkshow host who I can't stand and can't remember his name when on to name chris matthews and others for hate speech against the right taking everything they said out of context..

4. Howie Kurtz has always been lying sack of shit

He has a long history of carrying water for the right wing and especially right wing media. In fact, Kurtz is merely an errand boy for the right wing media establishment.

6. It's bizarre. Is there an unwritten media rule that RW threats should be elevated and protected?

This relentlessly hostile rhetoric has become standard issue on the right. (On the left it appears in anonymous comment threads, not congressional speeches and national T.V. programs.) And it has gone almost entirely uncriticized by Republican leaders. Partisan media encourages it, while the mainstream media finds it titillating and airs it, often without comment, so that the gradual effect is to desensitize even people to whom the rhetoric is repellent. We’ve all grown so used to it over the past couple of years that it took the shock of an assassination attempt to show us the ugliness to which our politics has sunk.

He didn't waste any time last night spreading this meme. They know it's all they can try to use to hide behind.

But it won't hold up even n the short run. It's always been obvious who was spreading the violent rhetoric week in and week out.
