				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/austin.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51528" title="austin" src="http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/austin.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Remember &#8220;Not Me&#8221;? He was the famous invisible cartoon gremlin in the newspaper comic strip &#8220;The Family Circus.&#8221; Whenever toys were left on the floor or other school-age disasters struck, the kids in the comic pointed their fingers at &#8220;Not Me.&#8221; Today, &#8220;Tea Party&#8221; is the juvenile left&#8217;s new &#8220;Not Me&#8221; — an all-purpose scapegoat for every crime and disaster.</p>
<p>Last Thursday, a disturbed pilot flew a small plane into an Austin, Texas, office complex that contained an Internal Revenue Service office. Several workers in the building were injured, and Joseph Andrew Stack, the pilot, was killed in the crash. Local authorities suspect he set his house on fire — from which his wife and daughter escaped — before taking off on his deadly journey. Investigators found a Web posting, identified as Stack&#8217;s &#8220;suicide manifesto,&#8221; in which he railed against tax laws, inequity, government and crony capitalism. He also targeted &#8220;puppet&#8221; George W. Bush, murderous health care insurers and the pharmaceutical industry.</p>
<p>The &#8220;manifesto&#8221; ended:</p>
<p><em> The communist creed: From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.</em></p>
<p><em>The capitalist creed: From each according to his gullibility, to each according to his greed. </em></p>
<p>This nutball had deadly grudges that transcended partisan lines. But within minutes of the story breaking, a furious left-wing blogger at the popular Daily Kos website — where countless Democratic leaders have guest-posted — fumed: &#8220;Teabagger terrorist attack on IRS building.&#8221; The article immediately cast blame on the anti-tax Tea Party movement: &#8220;After months of threats on the United States government, and government institutions, the Anti-Government forces known as the teabaggers have struck with their first 911 (sic) inspired terrorist attack.&#8221;</p>
<p>At the eponymous mega-website of Arianna Huffington, a 2,000-plus comment thread was filled with allusions to &#8220;teabaggers&#8221;:</p>
<p><em> I would bet he has a membership card to teabag nation and the Glenn Beck fan club!</em></p>
<p><em>Tea bag bomb.</em></p>
<p><em>Good to see natural selection still works! Tea party Unite!</em></p>
<p><em>This guy sounds just like a teabagger.</em></p>
<p><em>Oh please. This has tea bags dripping all over it.</em></p>
<p><em>I hope teabaggers are proud!! &#8230;</em></p>
<p><em>Great opening day for CPAC (the Conservative Political Action Conference) isn&#8217;t it?? </em></p>
<p><em>This guy sounds like a Tea Partier first class! Maybe that movement is more DANGEROUS to our freedoms than they let on! Be afraid America, BE VERY AFRAID!</em></p>
<p><em>He was a Tea Party Terrorist. </em></p>
<p>In the early aftermath of the suicidal pilot&#8217;s attack, there was no evidence that Stack belonged to a Tea Party organization. In any case, no law-abiding Tea Party group would ever condone what he did. But it didn&#8217;t stop the haters from immediately smearing advocates of limited government. And it&#8217;s just the latest in a long line of calculated attempts to paint the vast majority of peaceful Tea Party activists as terrorist threats to civil society.</p>
<p>This week, absurd liberal pundits and bloggers also tried to connect the tragic University of Alabama-Huntsville murders to the Tea Party movement. No matter that the alleged killer, Amy Bishop, was an Obama-worshiping academic who repeatedly got a soft-on-crime pass. Or that Democratic Rep. William Delahunt of Massachusetts was the former prosecutor involved in dropping charges against Bishop in the deadly shooting of her teenage brother. Or that liberal-dominated campus officials apparently looked the other way in response to Bishop&#8217;s several red-flag flashes of violence leading up to the U of A shootings.</p>
<p>Tea Party-bashers claimed that the murders were a manifestation of racist conservative influence on the American landscape. Reuters Foundation Fellow Jonathan Curiel picked up the theme: &#8220;The &#8216;results&#8217; that the Tea Party movement envisions include less government — and less of Obama.&#8221;</p>
<p>Curiel bemoaned the rejection of a post-racial society by tying together the Alabama massacre and the rise of the Tea Party movement more explicitly. Proof of anti-Obama bigotry, he wrote, could be found in &#8220;last week&#8217;s shooting in Alabama, where a disgruntled white professor murdered three minority professors; and the growing success of the Tea Party movement, which is overwhelmingly white and increasing (sic) vocal in its violent dislike of the nation&#8217;s first black president.&#8221;</p>
<p>The same warped worldview blamed Tea Party conservatives for Kentucky census worker Bill Sparkman&#8217;s insurance-scam-inspired suicide and for Holocaust Museum shooter James Von Brunn&#8217;s rampage (despite his published rants against Fox News).</p>
<p>The smear merchants, of course, are simply following Rahm Emanuel&#8217;s advice to exploit every crisis. Pointing fingers at the Tea Party gremlin demonizes the left&#8217;s most potent political opponents. This is the blame-gamers&#8217; ultimate agenda: criminalizing dissent.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[What the Grey Lady won't tell you about professor Amy Bishop.]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bishop1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51443" title="bishop" src="http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bishop1.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="347" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Visit <a href="http://www.newsrealblog.com/">Newsreal</a></strong><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/21/us/21bishop.html" target="_blank"><em></em></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/21/us/21bishop.html" target="_blank"><em>The New York Times</em>’ front page profile</a> on Saturday of professor Amy Bishop, who allegedly executed three University of Alabama Biology Department colleagues after being denied tenure, appears to be an exhaustively reported piece based on “numerous interviews with colleagues and others who knew her.” It portrays Bishop as violent and unpredictable, rejected by Harvard because of mediocre work and shunned by a series of neighbors and co-workers scared off by the suppressed rage that kept bubbling up to the surfaces of her social life, and also someone who may already have gotten away with the murder of her brother years earlier possibly because of her mother’s political connections in her home town of Braintree, Mass.</p>
<div>
<p>“Between brilliance and rage” is the caption of the photo of Bishop used by the<em> Times</em> for the story, although the piece makes no case for the former.  But is this all the news that is fit to print about the perpetrator of this murder spree in academe?  What about the “family source” who told the Boston Herald that Bishop was,</p>
<blockquote><p>“<a href="http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/guideDesc.asp?catid=144&amp;type=issue" target="_blank">a far left</a> political activist who was ‘obsessed’ with <a href="http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individualProfile.asp?indid=1511" target="_blank">President Obama</a> to the point of being off putting”?</p></blockquote>
<p>What about the student who called her a <a href="http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/guideDesc.asp?catid=115&amp;type=issue" target="_blank">“socialist”</a>? What about one report that Bishop complained about a rule issued by University  of Alabama administrators regarding underclassmen living on campus because she believed it was destructive of “diversity.”  And what about the crowning irony of this case, whether or not she made this complaint: that two of the colleagues she allegedly killed were black and one was South Asian, and that Bishop thus wiped out the 14 person Biology department’s entire diversity in one burst of gunfire?</p>
<p>Considering the politics of Bishop’s <em>ressentiment</em> might have helped fill out the Times’ portrait of a psychopathic time bomb who had already gone off several times in her disordered life on her way to the Big Explosion on February 12 in Huntsville. There is no doubt, as the blogosphere has already noted, that the paper would have pursued even the vaguest hint that Bishop had been a fan of Glenn Beck or was a Tea Party fellow traveler as a major story line. For the Grey Lady, only the politics of the Right is personal.</p>
