The Boston Attack; Cavalcade of Fools

As we were following this week's events in Boston, I fortunately kept links on some of the press speculation about who carried out the attacks.

First, we have CNN's clueless Wolf Blitzer speculating on who he thought might be responsible (Hat tip Hot Air)

Then there is the ever-reliable Chris Matthews on MSNBC speculating about those people who don't like to pay their taxes. (Hat tip Daily Caller)

In the below link from Weasel Zippers, we have the usual Harvard professor on MSNBC speculating about the "far right".

NBC's Luke Russert thought he detected a link to Waco (Hat tip Daily Caller)

Next, we have the New York Times writer Nicholas Kristof blaming Senate Republicans. (Hat tip Daily Caller)

Barney Frank used the attack to argue for more government spending. (Hat tip Daily Caller)

And a writer for Salon.com named David Sirota fervently hoped that the bomber(s) would be white American.

Sorry, Dave.



Not tax protesters
Not Tea Party
Not right-wing militiamen
Not "Patriots"
Not white racists

EVERYONE who ventured a predictive opinion has egg on their face.

Always looking for the suspects from the last war, never ready for who's coming out of right field this time.
