CNN's National Security Analyst on Anniversary of Boston Bombing: Rightwing Extremists Are More Deadly Than Jihadists, You Know

The media literally has the same storyline one year later.

Nothing is ever learned; nothing ever changes.

Are “right-wing” extremists more dangerous than Al-Qaeda terrorists? According to CNN’s National Security Analyst Peter Bergen, they are. In a CNN commentary posted yesterday Bergen wrote, “U.S. right wing extremists [are] more deadly than jihadists.” He also also happens to be a director for the George Soros-funded liberal New America Foundation. What a coincidence.

Must be great being a progressive, being able to collect two checks from your partisan/ideological group and the "straight media." *

Bergen claimed that “white supremacists, anti-abortion extremists and anti-government militants have killed more people in the United States than have extremists motivated by al Qaeda’s ideology.” He cited a New America study which counted 34 people killed by right-wing extremist acts and just 23 people killed by Al Qaeda-linked terrorism, after 9/11. Why start there? Wouldn’t the 2,977 people killed that day by jihadists skew those findings somewhat?

Nah bro.

Like Obama, Obama's progressive allies change the numbers to get the outcome they wish.

Meanwhile, Obama has declared that what worries him most is the prospect of a nuclear bomb detonating in a major American city. (Most likely this would be a Rightwing Nuke, I suppose.)

Here's what to do if a bomb goes off near you and you survive.

* Note that while CNN hires conservatives for commentary, they are in fact commentators.

This guy who works for a George Soros organization is an "analyst."
