In an email to members today, Tea Party Nation head Judson Phillips claimed that the Boston marathon bombing occurred because “we have a government that is not committed to protecting America” since it isn’t willing to “destroy radical Islam.” Phillips said that “Radical Islam and perhaps even non-radical Islam” is a danger to western civilization, arguing that Muslims believe that “non-Islamic nations may be conquered or otherwise taken over.”

Unfortunately the sad truth is we will be hit again. It will happen sooner or later. It will probably be sooner than later.

There are two reasons why we will be hit again. First, we have a determined enemy who hates us. Second, we have a government that is not committed to protecting America.

It is a pretty safe bet right now that this attack was carried out by an Islamist. It was a well-coordinated attack. In its publication, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula called for just this kind of attack.

3. Is this Free Republcan? I must have been misdirected by my browser...

Or did The President Now Switch political parties? Do you dislike ALL Democrats in Washington DC? Sorry your hero Romney lost because he is a super-wealthy, lying, criminal?

4. You know, there's a really credible witness who smelled cordite:

McGinty, who was running in his 14th Boston Marathon, said in an interview this evening that he may have heard the first blast, but he definitely heard the second one, which he thought might have been a construction crane falling. Then he smelled cordite and knew a bomb had gone off.

Cordite is the propellant inside modern bullets, gunpowder. Guns don't work without it. Its available to everyone over the age of 18 everywhere in America, in bullets. Right now.

Point is, maybe the Tea Party should think twice about complaining that Obama isn't committed to doing EVERYTHING he can to protect America, when the most rational thing he can do is ban the bomb making material, and with it all their bullets.

5. You know this right wingers have no respect for the office at all. At least in the days

after 9/11 no matter how we felt about W we did him and the office of President support.

6. And it begins...

The politicization of this event couldn't wait 24 hours. Hell, Steve Stockman started even earlier than that.

8. They have no facts...

Until they do, they should keep their mouths shut. For all they know, it could have been one of their own, and then.. if proven so, they will have to eat crow.

9. Very clever. If the bomber was a teabagger he was

still motivated by frustration with our "failure to destroy radical Islam"

Easy-peasy.

12. I wasn't aware that there was a viable suspect in custody, of any persuasion.

oh, and note to teajadists--a good many people assume this horrendous crime was the work of one of you lot.
