You have to be in denial to be a Leftist in the first place.

We're talking liberals here... remember they talk in circles. Thus, no matter the plethora of factual data put in front of their faces, there must be a Stage 6:
Anger: Whoever did this was obviously a right wing, Tea Party-affiliated, patriot, militant, white, religious, Republican, tax-protesting, NRA-loving gun nut.

Jim Quinn likes to say: "Liberalism is the act of standing on your head and telling the rest of the world that its upside down."

Something else also-
How many times after the attack do you hear in the media something like this:
“Sources are telling us”
“An FBI official who spoke on condition af annonymity has said -—— because they are not allowed to speak about it.”
Are all of the sources and the info checked for accuracy or are these things that are being spewed out as fact not even true?
Also, If people within the FBI, State Department etc... are not supposed to talk about these things, then why are they doing so? Shouldn’t they be searched out and fired?

This was an isolated incident of lone wolf terrorism unconnected to anything that could possibly imply that the Obama administration had let down its guard or overlooked obvious signs of imminent attack by an international terrorist conspiracy.I would like to point out the Boston attack was the first successful bombing on American soil since 9/11.
I don't know if anybody else remembers 9/12, but the universal assumption at the time was that we would have to accustom ourselves to an ongoing wave of attacks, even if less spectacular. As in multiple bombings per year, and possibly per month.
In actual fact, of course, we went more than 11.5 years before the next successful bombing.
Given that there are at minimum some tens of millions out there who want to blow us up, I think that's a pretty damn good record. And I am offended at those who slander those fighting off our attackers by claiming the only possible way an attack could have gotten through was because those defenders were incompetent or complicity.
A good chunk of the world wants us dead. It is unreasonable to expect that none of their attempts will get through.

The night of the bombing, I knew that the perpetrators were Muslim based upon the fact that the media and the Obama administration were not leaking that it was by a Timothy McVeigh type.
It was reinforced by the fact that when suspects were identified, their religion was not identified prominently if at all.
If the bombing was perpetrated by a TEA Party activist as was speculated because it happened on April 15, this would have been trumpeted by the media ad nauseum continuously ever since.
Bear in mind also that the media started going into the life-stories of the bombers right away.
Compare this to how the mass-murders in Newtown CT and Aurora CO were treated in the media. The difference being is that these were shootings, so the issue was gun-control rather than what sort of people were pulling the triggers.
In these cases, the shooters were victims, according to the Left, because they were forced to perpetrate these atrocities by the availability of firearms to the general public.
The bombers, on the otherhand, were motivated by justifiable outrage perpetrated by the United States’ unfair treatment of Muslims — according to the Left.

It was a series of man-caused sports-related injuries
Notice how they drop the gender neutrality when it comes to anything bad. MAN-made tragedy, MAN-made climate change, mad MAN, hit MAN, etc. instead of something more PC like HUMAN-made tragedy. A Freudian slip? Or they assume we're too stooped and ignernt to notice the transparent attempt at subliminal MANipulation, no pun intended?

Yes, I knew the OKC bombing was not the work of muzzie terrorists the moment then AG Janet Reno said in an impromptu press conference just 1 hr later they will seek the death penalty. Until that point Reno was a staunch opponent of capital punishment, but quickly changed her tune the moment it was clear they were dealing with what they could manipulate as domestic right wing extremism. Morris Dees and the SPLC must've had multiple orgasms over the propaganda potential.

I think #5 should be “Rename the Act to obfuscate”.

My liberal Mass. acquaintance went through roughly three phases:
1. Not a muslim because the Saudi was absolutely innocent
2. Hope it's a foreign terrorist because homegrown terrorists are much worse (?),
3. Complete silence.
