Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

Predictably, moonbats blame Bush for VT shootings

The only surprise is that it took this long. Via Hot Air:

Keith Olbermann tried to blame President Bush and the Republican Congress for yesterday’s massacre because they “allowed” a ban on 9mm clips like the one used to murder 32 people to expire. Transcript:
At least one of the weapons used by the shooter is believed, as we said, to be in nine millimeter semi-automatic pistol, which would be like this one, with a clip designed to hold more than 10 shots. Clips like those were banned under the Assault Weapons Law of 1994, but Congress and President Bush allowed that law to expire more than two years ago.

Confederate Yankee points out one small problem with Blabberman’s observation:

High-capacity magazines have been around for more than half a century, and the sale of high-capacity magazines was not impacted whatsoever by the 1994 Crime Bill. These magazines were freely and commercially available, both in retail stores and online, without interruption, for the 10-year life of the ban, the decades preceding it, and afterward.

Blabberman, you may want to go ahead and issue that correction, so both of your viewers will be up to speed.

Geez, if it’s not American moonbats blaming Bush, it’s those idiot Euros blaming Charlton Heston. Exit question: did we export moonbattery to other countries, or did we import it from other countries?

"Religious" nutcase media whores getting in on VT shooting

In due time, these sunsabeeches will get theirs. From Moonbattery:

As if Virginia Tech doesn’t have enough to deal with, the obnoxious cult calling itself the Westboro Baptist Church is on its way to Blacksburg, in hopes of attracting attention. Moonbats will be pleased to note that they regard George Bush as a “bloody tyrant.” From their website, GodHatesAmerica.com:
WBC will preach at the funerals of the Virginia Tech students killed on campus during a shooting rampage April 16, 2007. You describe this as monumental horror, but you know nothing of horror — yet. Your bloody tyrant Bush says he is “horrified” by it all. You know nothing of horror — yet. Your true horror is coming. (WHAT?? A Hillary presidency?? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! – Ed.)

You see, God is going to come and wreak havoc in accordance with the WBC’s simple message:

God Hates Fags. God Hates You. (Seems contrary to the New Testament and the message of Christ. One would think that “people of God” might have read that thing. – Ed.) The World is Doomed.

According to WBC, “God sent a crazed madman” to Virginia Tech. More are on the way.

I’m going to use seemingly contrasting labels here: moonbats AND wingnuts. I’m using “wingnuts”, since they’re a purported “religious” group, though their paltry membership of under 200 indicates that they’re shunned by normal religious groups. I’m also using “moonbats”, since their leader, Fred Phelps, is a registered Democrat and has campaigned for Democrat politicians over the years (including Al Gore in 2000).

Either label, these are some sick freaks who are in desparate need of an #sskicking. I know, I know, that’s not very Christianlike of me. So sue me for being human. This crap angers me to no end.

Quote of the day

From Neal Boortz:

John Edwards spends $400 a month on his haircuts? Yup … here is a real man of the people. Now I see why so many low and middle income Americans admire this man so. When you’re struggling to put food on the table it really is easy to identify with someone who spends four bills on a haircut.

But hey, that Silky Pony hair sure looks good, doesn’t it?

NYT breathlessly runs hit piece targeting Second Amendment

Well now…that didn’t take long, now did it? From the Old Gray Hag:

Yesterday’s mass shooting at Virginia Tech — the worst in American history — is another horrifying reminder that some of the gravest dangers Americans face come from killers at home armed with guns that are frighteningly easy to obtain…
…Our hearts and the hearts of all Americans go out to the victims and their families. Sympathy was not enough at the time of Columbine, and eight years later it is not enough. What is needed, urgently, is stronger controls over the lethal weapons that cause such wasteful carnage and such unbearable loss.

As Bull Dog Pundit notes, “In one sentence they say is that it is ‘premature to draw too many lessons,’ yet they then go on to say that stronger laws are needed over ‘lethal weapons,’ even though nothing is known about how he got them.”

Does it even matter to these people that the VT shooter allegedly bought his guns illegally? Gun control would stop legal purchases of firearms by law-abiding citizens, but it would do nothing to stop illegal purchases by law-breakers. But hey, why worry about practicality, when we can feel good about ourselves by “doing something” (or appearing as though we are) about the problem?

Kos kooks tout neo-Nazi video

From LGF:

Now featured in a diary at Daily Kos, a video clip from the neo-Nazi site Vanguard News Network (vnnforum.com): Daily Kos: Portrait of a Great Taboo: The Power of the Israel Lobby in the United States. (Hat tip: Killgore Trout.)

LGF has the link to the Kos-tards’ site, as well as a screen capture of their anti-Semitic diary, so I shan’t link to them.

As one commenter at Hot Air notes: “So I guess if you go far enough crazy left (Kos) you end up on the crazy right (Nazi)? They’ve come full circle!” Good point, except I would argue that despite stereotypes that reflexively categorize Nazis as extreme right-wing, I consider them extreme left-wing since they were National Socialists. If socialism is right wing, then Bill Clinton is president of the Promise Keepers.
