I don't want to dignify it with a response, but feel that I must say something about these disgusting allegations that I am not brown. If anything, I'd describe myself as being a luscious olive color.

Is The Blaze the Glenn Beck associated site?

They have some crazy, non-corroborated stuff on that site and are still obsessed with the Saudi guy..

^ yeah he founded it.

read the fucking comments on some of those stories. there are some serious wackos that frequent it (and breitbart).

I had a FB friend who pretty much read only those two sites. Said all of the other media is left wing biased, and those two sites represent un-biased news or some such nonsense. Made the defriend pretty easy.

I honestly don't get why the right wing kook sites are so obsessed with pinning this on a middle eastern terrorist?

I don't give a shit who did it as long as he caught and hopefully put to death.

I got it from The Blaze which later said it might not be true but left the story up. Further it's pathetic that a Congressman actually asked Napolitano this in a congressional briefing.

5pm presser from FBI.

Sadly a large chunk of the country have already made their minds up and won't believe what is reported.

I like The Blaze for the most part. I think they go over the top with trying to get you to click their stories, but I think they do a good job of reporting untold stories and attempting to reveal the truth.

This is The Blaze's view too.

I just clicked on their site and it looks like the national inquirer. "reporting" is not making-up stories out of unsubstantiated rumors. that's the stuff of tabloids (which sadly, most mainstream news organizations continue to move towards)

and I mean, come on, they have advertisements like this on their front page: http://thefoundersbible.com/the-founders-bible.html

I agree, it's sad that mainstream news looks and sounds like tabloids sometimes. It's mind-boggling to consider some of the things that get mentioned on the air.

From what I've read and heard on his radio show, they base their stories and opinion on what people actually say, or what the government publishes, not rumors.

Did the entire right collectively lose their mind after Obama won in 2008. I was pretty much moving towards being an out and out Republican and now I feel almost ashamed I ever voted that way in a national election.

I know there are plenty of loony liberals too but the rights covering of this event has confirmed every bias people have bee talking about.

It makes me

I may be a liberal by Deep South standards but I assure you I'm not even close by rational standards. Definitely right of center overall... more libertarian than anything on all social issues.

You have got to be fucking kidding/trolling me here.

I've seen some dumb shit posted in my 10+ years on this site, but this might take the cake.

If you truly believe this statement I feel sorry for you. I pity you. I wonder how things could have gone so wrong in your life to where you've arrived at this place.

Of course. Lets consult our handy checklist here.

1 - He's black
2 - He's liberal [in theory at least]
3 - He's black
4 - He was a "community organizer"
5 - His dad was a muslim
6 - He's black
7 - His middle name sounds really muslimey
8 - He's an intellectual
9 - He's black

I was listening to 'Here and Now" on NPR at lunch and Robin Young was talking with her guest about the role of the internet and social media in providing information to police during investigations and the future of 'crowdsourcing' of evidence. Great interview, but the dudes conclusion was not yet due to mob mentality and runaway inaccuracies

The right is afraid that if it turns out to be a white male, it will be fuel for things against their agenda. You've already seen some fringe left trying to conflate this issue with things like gun control.

The left is afraid that if it turns out to be a Middle Eastern terrorist, it'll lead to backlash against current immigration efforts and cause another wave of anti-Muslim sentiment, and more (ill-placed) fury against the President.

Personally, I think it's just both sides trying to score cheap points on national tragedy, but thankfully, it's mainly fringe elements on both sides at this point.
