Accuracy in Media, the rightwing webzine whose AIM is anything but, has the latest throbbing update from beyond the fringes of reason:

The Real Story of the Oklahoma City Bombing


While liberal news outlets such as MSNBC were cynically exploiting the April 19 anniversary of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing by attempting to tie the terrorist attack to the anti-government sentiments of the modern-day Tea Party movement, investigative reporter Jayna Davis was setting the record straight in an exclusive interview on the AIM radio show, Take AIM. The Oklahoma City bombing was an Arab/Muslim terrorist attack on the United States, she says.


[. . .]

Liberal media like MSNBC have peddled the false notion that McVeigh was motivated by domestic hatred of the government, and that the Tea Party movement is motivated by the same. Hence, by extension, the Tea Party movement will probably spawn anti-government fanatics who will kill people. This claim justifies government repression of anti-Obama political dissidents who may in fact be entirely peaceful and simply exercising their constitutional rights.

And there's lots more.

Aside from the obvious conspiracy-theory paranoia and xenophobic hatemongering, which together suggest Davis has not so much a screw loose as an entire Meccano set, there's one point in particular puzzles me. Could anyone direct me to a single example -- just one -- of this "government repression of anti-Obama political dissidents who may in fact be entirely peaceful and simply exercising their constitutional rights" that the wingnuts get so worked up about?

Answers on one side of the paper only, please.

That's it. I'm declaring the whole party mentally incompetent. (I am a doctor, after all...)
