Rush: 'The effort is on to politicize' Boston Marathon bombing

Limbaugh's take on the Boston Marathon bombing this morning...
"The Left politicizes everything...within moments of this happening, the Left began to politicize it, and began drooling in some cases...over the possibility that a right-wing extremist in the same vein as Timothy McVeigh did this. You see, it'd be very bad, bad, bad for the regime if it turned out that that Saudi national was responsible. Very, very bad for Obama and the regime... I'm telling you that the effort is on to politicize this. You may have heard many of the efforts that some in the drive-by media, what is called the mainstream media, have already begun speculating...and hoping..."

"Throwing out a possibility here, since everybody else is, I don't think you can rule out...we're in an economic disaster in this country. There are people who are at their wits end over what to do, economically. Can't find a job, can't find work, no apparent hope of it. This leads to all kinds of anger and chaos. I wouldn't rule out the fact that there's just the sociology of a depressed and in-ruins economy is leading to all kinds of frustration in all kinds of people all over this country. Now, nobody knows what happened."
Rush goes on to ask what are we gonna do whatever we find out?



Other appropriate observations, considering the media's stance...
"Has anybody blamed a video for this? What? Is that too impolitic to say? The president didn't blame a video for this? Really? Like he did in Benghazi? There wasn't a video that worked somebody up into a frenzy that caused this?"

"How about this? You know this is how Bill Ayers got his start... Could we say that whoever did this, has just helped their effort to get hired by a major university? Couldn't we? I mean, that's how Bill Ayers got his start. That's how Kathy Boudin got her start."

"If the Left politicizes everything... Is it reasonable to ask how might the Left be calculating this incident to be of the greatest use to them? Because everything to them is politics. And the evidence of that is how quickly they launched into trying to blame people like us, folks, who I'm simply showing up here and defending. A bunch of people are being maligned, impugned, character assassinated or assaulted today who had nothing to do with this. We don't know who did it."
Rush summarizes that in the mainstream media's collective mind, "It is just not possible that any left-wing Occupy Wall Street radicals or environmental radicals or people unhappy with the economy did this. Not even possible." And that's precisely my reasoning behind writing the previous few posts.

Rush goes further in a following segment, asking, "If you are a Muslim, and it turns out that a Muslim did bomb the Boston Marathon, how do you feel?" He says if that turns out to be the case, you can guarantee that the media will circle the wagons and say it's not because of Islam. However, if you're a conservative, and it turns out that there's any remote connection to conservatives, everybody in the media will unite to tar and feather anyone and everyone associated with that group.

Ahhh, our media...
