Yes….let’s go there.
I was going to write the title of this post in the form of a question; as in “Is The left Culpable…?”, but screw that…I’m pissed. I keep reading about how pro-lifers are somehow to blame for one nut job, (with a long, violent, track record). I’m noticing, like so many others, how the media is focusing on Tiller’s death, and ignoring the death of American Army recruitment officer, William Long :
At the time of this writing, there are nearly 7,000 references to “George Tiller” in Google News.
There are under 500 for “William Long.”
George Tiller, of course, was the Kansas abortion doctor murdered Sunday morning by a man who allegedly had political and religious motives.
William Long was the 23-year-old military recruiter murdered Monday morning by a man who allegedly had political and religious motives.
I see the Obama administration rush to condemn this shooting of the late term abortionist:
President Barack Obama:
“I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence.”U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder:
“The murder of Dr. George Tiller is an abhorrent act of violence, and his family is in our thoughts and prayers at this tragic moment. Federal law enforcement is coordinating with local law enforcement officials in Kansas on the investigation of this crime, and I have directed the United States Marshals Service to offer protection to other appropriate people and facilities around the nation. … As a precautionary measure, we will also take appropriate steps to help prevent any related acts of violence from occurring.”
Yet, thus far, not a word has been uttered in condemnation against the murder of William Long.
Yes, it’s time to turn the tables.
Mitchell Blatt did:
Salon, the Huffington Post, and the Daily Kos have already identified Bill O’Reilly as the culprit for abortionist George Tiller’s murder, so I now heap the blame on Keith Olbermann and all of the above mentioned websites and CNN for the shooting at a military recruiting center in Arkansas.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Police in Arkansas say a military recruiter has been killed in a shooting at an Army-Navy recruiting office in Little Rock and a second recruiter has been wounded.
-AP
Markos Moulitsas may have celebrated the deaths of Blackwater fighters and wished for a similar fate for Michelle Malkin, but nevermind that.
And Olbermann did call our troops fighting in Iraq “cold-blooded killers,” but that obviously had nothing to do with the hate some on the left feel against the military.
This is especially applicable to Markos Moulitsas, who has expressed his disdain for those fighting and dying in Iraq, quite explicitly: Screw them.
Mike Hendricks, writing for the Kansas City Star was quick to point a finger at the pro-life community for the death of Tiller:
“the motive for the crime we can all surmise, given the vitriolic rhetoric aimed at Tiller these past couple of decades by anti-abortion activists. And if we’re right about that, then we know the identities of his accomplices.”
“If anyone is in need of salvation now, it’s the anti-abortion movement in Kansas and across the nation. … the bullet that killed George Tiller also shattered the moral underpinnings of the movement that inspired its firing.”
Okay, Mike. Fair enough. By the way…Weren’t you against the war in Iraq, Mike? Was your anti-war rhetoric ever “vitriolic”? Did you ever engage in any anti-war activities? If the answer to any of those questions is yes, then I believe you are in need of salvation, too, my friend. It turns out that the killer, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad had “a disagreement with the wars in Iraq, and Afghanistan”. So, I guess the bullet that killed William Long also shattered the underpinnings of the movement that inspired its firing. Am I right? Or was what I just said there completely retarded?
How does it feel, lefties?

Awww maaan! John Gibson is playing this game, too. Only his main focus is of course, Bathtub Boy. I hadn’t Seen Keef’s unintentionally hysterical rant on MSNBC. Head over to Olbermann Watch to see Gibson’s punishing analysis.
Still More:
And now Bill O’Reilly, too:

A Kos kid fantasizes over the death of Michelle Malkin in the wake of the lefty accusations that pro life conservatives are somehow complicit in Dr. Tiller’s death.

It’s about time that the far left whackos are taken to task for their insane hatred of the military. And, the leader of this pack of mad dogs remains silent.

The left is devoid of feelings, save one … victimization.
I have been steaming about this admins reaction to this murder of one of Americas best. None of those bastards appear to have the least bit of feelings about it – to their great shame. Good to see you and so far as I’ve seen MM post anything about it. I would have, but my rage is so great I fear my response would be too profane to publish. I can’t get past that – to my shame.
I despise these people to the depths of my soul – there are no words I can think of to properly define them and the harm they are doing to our nation. There are no options for saving the country but to do whatever we can to defeat these bastards next election.

I read these camo wearing bastards were flushing Korans down the toilet in Newsweek. This’ll show ‘em.

[...] Nice Deb says that the anti-war left is to blame for the death of the military recruiters. Turnabout is fair play. She has a lot more at that link, [...]

here is another sick thought about this pathetic administration:
take every justification that Obama placates Muslim nations with this week in his statements and speeches, and replace the appropriate Muslim nation (they have legitimate reasons for hating on us doncha know!) with the name of this shitbag Muslim convert in Arkansas. if “justification appeasement” is proper for Obama to extend to Islam as a whole, then it is also proper and valid to extend the same “justification appeasement” to their individual jihadists as well. think long term effects: no more Gitmo trials of any kind, because Comrade Obama is about to absolve all the Muslim world of any blame whatsoever.
i will not laugh anymore at anybody who wishes to call Obama the antichrist. this sickens me.
PS: i just made up the term “justification appeasement” and it means appeasement based on the self-justification of evil deeds. ergo: justification appeasement will not and can not appease the evil doers, as they will only justify themselves more so.

The brilliance of this country is that an abortionist is worth equal to a military recruiter. We are all equal according to the founding fathers. As such, equal time should be given. Tiller, however, was more famous prior to death and thus receives more airtime. It is fairly simple really.

But a Muslim terrorist who after receiving training in Yemen, shoots two men at an army recruitment office with plans to do even more…..
that’s huge news. As big as the Tiller killing, if not bigger.
