Is this guy a confused, sloppy writer? Or a master of the droll?
But no one was more adamant about their hatred for the NRA than MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell who last night accused the civil rights group of aiding and abetting the terrorist(s) responsible for the Boston Marathon bombings.
Wayne LaPierre stands tall at the Lincoln Memorial. "I have a dreeeeeem....". A misty image of Charlton Heston slowly descends behind him. A million snaggle-tooth rednecks wave their AR15s and chant in hypnotic rhythm,
"What do we want?"
"Thirty Rounds!"
"When do we want it?"
"Now!"

This guy takes a reasonably accurate shot at O'Donnell. I watched a bit of Larry's spit fest. I found new limits to my admiration for him, MSNBC, television "news" in general, and the entire spectrum of far-left opportunists.

Boston
Even with the aid of cable news, I'm not quite able to create a satisfactory analysis of what's going on out there.
I will venture only one point.
Having to rob a Seven-11 and steal a getaway car does not bespeak the work of a sophisticated internatonal terror cartel.
Much more like, "Brother, I am becoming bored. Let us go out and kill some people like Uncle Csgozch did back in the old country."

Why we're broke
We don't want to get too insular. Beyond the Second Amendment debate, the usual quota of federal idiocy continues, and Old NFO has a nice take plus a useful summary on Paul Ryan's suggestions for keeping America out of the Greek bath house.

A better gun bill?
Breaking news. This just in to WTMR News Central:
Sens. Grassley of Iowa and Cruz of Texas just popped a news release onto our desk. It announces their last-minute amendment to the Obama Administration's gun bill.
I've taken time to read only the contents section, but the money fact is that it appears to attack violence without a useless pretense of background checks.
It needs to fit into the already-set machinery, and I haven't the vaguest guess about its prospects.

I never write much about Grassley, though I like him personally and consider him -- at worst -- one of the better men serving in Congress. A lot of us wish we could we could pry him away from his love affair with mandated ethanol and other welfare schemes for the ag industry. (He has a down-home awww-shucks demeanor which occasionally moves the literati to write him off as a hick. Usually they do it only once, chastened by the embarrassment of wondering what to do with that bundle he hands them. "Will my detached Ivy League ass fit in my attache case?")
Don't know much about Cruz except that he sometimes has an impolitic mouth. To be expected, I suppose. After all, he's elected from the same state that once hired Ann Richardson's to govern the place.
