It would be nice if everyone could just agree that James Jay Lee, the hostage taker killed today in a standoff at the offices of the Discovery Channel, was deranged. And leave it at that. But of course, we’re already seeing some extremely partisan bloggers trying to put him in the “left wing” category, simply because his weird views sprang out of a kind of extreme environmentalism ....Right.
Last year King Charles was all over the James Von Brunn story, playing up the "white supremacy" angle like there was no tomorrow: "Shooting at Holocaust Museum in Washington DC" (cached version).
And then there's Think Progress, where the folks are just as desperate to paint the Discovery gunman as some wild right-wing anti-immigration stormtrooper, "Purported Eco-Terrorist Angered Over ‘Immigration Pollution And Anchor Baby Filth’":
This afternoon, a gunman entered the Discovery Communications building in Silver Spring, MD and appears to have taken at least one person hostage. Among his various bizarre, eco-related demands, one relates directly to immigration. The alleged hostage-taker, James Jay Lee, calls for the elimination of “anchor baby filth” and “immigration pollution”...Look. I'm just glad that the hostages are safe. And God rest his soul, but James Lee was mentally disturbed. Almost as disturbing is the far-left's hopeless efforts to rewrite the storyline to fit their warped partisan agenda. The bottom line is that the gunman was motivated by radical environmentalism, and he even claimed Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" as inspiration. It's mostly just sad, either way. See Left Coast Rebel, "Following James Jay Lee's Trail on the Net: The Discovery Channel Ecoterrorist's second website 'World Guardian Voices'."

Thanks for the link - did the same for you too. CJ and Think Progress are nearly as insane as the gunman (pre hostage taking).
Bolshevik, useful idiot fools they are....
THE MSM KEEPS WRITING ABOUT RIGHT WING ANGER MEANWHILE IT'S THE LEFT THAT'S DANGEROUSLY UNHINGED.
The complete ABSENCE of violence on the part of Tea Party people really has the leftists' knickers in a knot.
CJ is something else. At that same time he is saying, "hey, this guy is just a nut job who acted on his own," he's also saying that those against the Islamic community center near the WTC are responsible for any attack that might occur against a Muslim.
Can't be bothered with what CJ says/thinks/breathes-on anymore. Besides, my firewall at work blocks his blog -- meh.
