There will be a day when everyone will wonder "how this happened" |

It's only a matter of time until another Tim McVeigh lashes out and blows up a building, shoots up a market, attacks some group of people, or even goes after Obama himself. And when this happens everyone will ask "how did we allow this to happen?." Of course the answer is hiding in plain site. The Limbaugh's, Hannity's, Becks, and freepervilles of the world are out there for all of us to see. Their culture of hatred is plainly obvious, but it's not condemned. The lies and the hatred are not only allowed to fester, but they're encouraged. We will likely pay for this down the line, but those creating it probably won't.

2. There's no question of how it will have happened. But the MSM will no longer address the question. |
|
Except for a few lonely voices like Keith and Rachel, they carefully look the other way when hatemongers are routinely spewing their rabble-rousing venom. So they can't and won't address something they have too long pretended didn't exist.
One more reason we are all screwed.
