Contessa Brewer Is Frustrated That Times Square Bombing Suspect Is A Muslim UPDATE: Note Brewer's Double Standard For Islamic Terroists And Militia Members
Our favorite MSNBC News whore is back at it.
I mean the thing is that- and I get frustrated and there was part of me that was hoping this was not going to be anybody with ties to any kind of Islamic country because there are a lot of people who want to use this terrorist intent to justify writing off people who believe in a certain way or come from certain countries or whose skin color is a certain way. I mean they use it as justification for really outdated bigotry.
Yes, we need to get past the outdated bigotry of thinking, "My God, what have they (some Muslim) blown up now?" and move on to the new and approved bigotry of attacking people who have the temerity to not fall in line with Obama's political agenda.
Won't some racist teabager please step up and kill someone so Contessa won't be so frustrated?
Meanwhile, fresh from betting that the Times Square bomber was opposed to health care reform, Mike Bloomberg is warning people not take out their frustrations on Muslims.
Liberals have spent the last 8 years far more outraged about these mythical backlashes than the actual terrorist attacks.
Added: If you follow the link you'll see Brewer was very concerned about not prejudging the outcome of the Times Square case. Contrast that with her language abut the Michagan militia case.
And so there was part of me was really hoping this would not be the case that here would be somebody who is not the defined. I mean he’s accused, he’s arrested you know I don’t want to convict him before it’s time to do so. He’s the guy authorities say is involved. But that being said, I mean, we know even in recent history you have the Hutaree militia from Michigan who have plans to, let’s face it, create terror. That’s what they were planning to do and they were doing so from far different backgrounds than what this guy is coming from.
Notice, the militia suspects definitely had plans to "create terror". Shahzad? He's just a "guy authorities say is involved" and we have to be careful not to prejudge him.
Funny thing, Brewer the Whore apparently didn't realize the government case against the militia members took a bit of a hit.
Nine members of a Michigan militia will be released from jail pending trial after a federal judge on Monday harshly criticized the government's claim they had conspired to overthrow the U.S. government.
The decision is a significant defeat for federal authorities, who spoke in tough and triumphant terms after arresting members of a southern Michigan group called the Hutaree in March and charging them with conspiracy to commit sedition and attempted use of weapons of mass destruction.
..Observers cautioned that U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade and her team should be worried about Roberts' assessment of their case, rather than her decision to release the defendants pending trial.
"The feds are in big trouble," said Lloyd Meyer of Chicago, a former terrorism prosecutor who won decades-long prison sentences against violent militia members in western and northern Michigan. "If they can't persuade the judge by clear and convincing evidence that the defendants are dangerous, how can they convince 12 jurors beyond a reasonable doubt? Her ruling looks like the feds are prosecuting U.S. citizens for jibber-jabber."
Thanks to Gabe for the militia story.
