The Saudi connection to Boston

Quote from Ricter:
Yes, though that still doesn't necessarily explain their motives.

Unless proven otherwise, their motives are obvious, just as CaptainObvious.

Quote from Ricter:

There might be something to it, but Beck's involvement gives it "first stink" imo.

Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, ‘person of interest’ in Boston bombing, still set to be deported on Tuesday.
So how do you explain a guy that is a "person of interest" in a teorrist bombing last week, get's deported this week back to the motherland? Nice safe place for him to be, wouldn't you think? Oh, would the CT'ers have a field day with this if Bush was in office.

Quote from Ricter:

He's not acting as journalist in his opinion piece.

So you're saying a journalist is exempt from practicing good journalism in an editorial? Really?

Yeah, Hannity does it on the regular.

Quote from Ricter:

Not "my" journalist, nor even a journalist.

When the so called, "legitimate journalists" won't cover a story, who will?

What would happen if a Tea Party member was found at the site of a terrorist attack, and his Facebook page included a like for a well-known politician and poet who once said the “gates of heaven” would open for Timothy McVeigh? Would MSNBC cover it? Would Chris Matthews cover it? Objective observers know the answer is “yes.”

Ah, so you're saying Hannity is a journalist, or that he is exempt? And what does this have to do with saying the terrorist was a right wing extremist before any facts were there to support that claim?

If he actually said it, they'd cover it. The point is that opinionators and bloggers are free to claim he said it whether he did or not. Don't call them journalists.

Hannity, and Faux News consider him journalist. And
FoX routinely gets things horribly wrong, which well documented, of course.

Hannity claims he's a conservative.

Useful idiots like Chris Matthews, George Stephanopoulos, Candy Crowley, etc, claim they're unbiased journalists. They're frauds.

Show me where I said Beck is a journalist. He's a professional opinionater, just like the entire team at MSNBC.
