The Left-Wing Lie Machine Takes A Mortal Blow
The Market Ticker ^ | 2013-04-24 | Karl Denninger

Oh the irony!

U.S. authorities were on their way to a mountainous region in southern Russia to interview the parents of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects, as more details emerged about the brothers' recent activities in the U.S., including word of where the deadly explosives may have been purchased and that the family relied on welfare for at least some of their time here.

The brothers hated America.

They loved, however, "transitional assistance benefits" -- in other words, welfare.

That's right folks -- we paid these clowns to live while they were radicalizing themselves and declaring that America was "the great Satan" and worthy of bombing.

How's it feel in those liberal bastions this morning? You now have hard proof that your political policies and "redistribution" factually funded these clowns while they made their plans to blow up runners at the Marathon.

Take a bow, liberals, to the fruits of your policy.

It gets better.

The elder brother bought fireworks -- a lot of them too ($400 worth) -- in February. That's not exactly a time when most people shoot off fireworks, is it? Even better, he bought fireworks that are full of both lift and bursting charges which are typically black-powder compounds -- exactly the sort of explosive that was identified in the bombs.

The Fibbies have said that he didn't buy enough to make the bombs, but that's just one sale they know of. This particular fireworks dealer scanned the guy's driver license, but unless something has changed recently this is pretty uncommon. I've bought plenty of fireworks and the only thing most of the places I've gone to have wanted is my money. How many more fireworks stores did these two visit?

There goes the "mad bomber uses GUN SUPPLIES" argument too!

It gets even better -- a majority of Bostonians apparently figured out that the cops would be happy to come by and sweep up the mess after the terrorists got done with them. See, the majority seem to have responded that they'd have preferred to have a gun during such an event.

Naw, go figure -- you have a couple of madmen on the loose who have proved they'll walk up to cops and shoot them, and the people would like to have a fighting chance at self-defense?

One by one this incident is taking the bogus arguments used for years by the lying left and demolishing them. The terrorists were not "Jesus-loving, bible-banging right-wing freaks" -- they were Muslims. The terrorists were not native-born Americans, they were immigrants that we coddled and allowed to remain in the country despite one of them committing a disqualifying crime. We not only ignored the older brother's domestic violence we funded them with welfare, literally paying them to live while they hated us and ultimately decided to try to kill us all. The guns the terrorists bought were not purchased through some "loophole" since there wasn't one that was possible given the state's laws on firearms, proving that a criminal doesn't give a damn about laws whether they pertain to guns or anything else. Massachusetts has factually had a near-doubling of murders since passing its "strict" gun control, about 60 a year, while the mad bombers managed to kill four, meaning that the bombers did less damage than one month's butcher bill from Massachusetts liberal gun-banning law, drawing a clear picture on exactly how destructive said laws have been to the life and liberty of Massachusetts residents.

Those on the left have run out of both arguments and excuses and this incident runs the flag all the way up the pole on that account.

“Those on the left have run out of both arguments and excuses and this incident runs the flag all the way up the pole on that account.”

Karl underestimates the left. Just last night, Colbert was stressing the bombers were from the Caucasus mountain region, and were therefore... Caucasians! With the inference that the lib media was fundamentally right in the angry white person meme.

The left doesn’t need any affirmation of their agenda by anyone other than the small group of liberal elitists. Reality, or the will of the people means nothing to them.

Doesn’t matter one bit, the media has their collective heads so far up Obamas ass that they see daylight when he reads anything off his teleprompter.

I hate to be Realistic (formerly cynical)

It takes a minimum of ten syllables for a leftist to feel good about failure.

“transitional assistance benefits” = welfare.

“Overseas contrigentcy operation” = war.

Statement: "The Left-Wing Lie Machine Takes A Mortal Blow"

Response: I disagree, it took a blow but not a mortal blow.

But white citizens of South Africa are not permitted under the PC Rules of the Left to call themselves Africans.

The new liberal response now is: “...what difference does it make he was on welfare?!?...”

And their mother was a convicted shoplifter.

Lovely family. At least they liked Obama.

OK, so based on that, what part of his post do you take issue with?

I disagree as well. It's a bit of hyperbole....BUT: here is a situation that smacks the trifecta of liberal lies all in one, and everybody saw it, people died and were horribly maimed from it and the beloved MSM spent 3+ days on it exclusively. 0bama never spends 3 days doing anything except playing golf and throwing Beyonce concerts in the WH. This potentially has all the argument power of Sandy Hook.

It was a blow to the MSM. However, the MSM and its masters are in total control of American public opinion and have been since the mid 1930’s.

What you say is true....but if we are to defeat them, or at least expose their gross bias...we have to accept small victories as today’s gruel. I’ll take it.

From Wikipedia.

Caucasian race (also Caucasoid)[1] is the general physical type of some or all of the populations of Europe, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Western Asia/Middle East, Asia Minor, Central Asia and South Asia.[2] Historically, the term was used for many people from these regions, without regard necessarily to skin tone.[3]
