How bad has the hysteria in the MSM and among liberals gotten over tea party "violence" against Democrats for voting in Obamacare?
Jim Hoft:
The Seattle Times reported today on another horrible political attack. The Times claimed that liberal democrat Rep. Steve Driehaus had a rock thrown though his office window: Protesters have been demonstrating at Driehaus' Ohio home, said Tim Mulvey, a spokesman for the anti-abortion Democrat who joined Stupak in voting for the health bill. A rock was thrown through the window of Driehaus' Cincinnati office Sunday, and a death threat was phoned in to his Washington office a day later, Mulvey said.
"It's getting out of hand," Mulvey said.
Yes, it certainly is getting out of hand. The Seattle Times reported that someone threw a rock that hit a window 30 stories above the ground in Cincinnati.
Well, of course they didn't actually report that salient fact. All they said was that the Congressman's office was hit. Apparently, the fact that his office was 30 stories above the ground was just too good to check.
Whoever that guy was who bullseyed the congressman's 30th floor office, the Cincinnati Reds need pitching help desperately. Sign him up!
Update: The Seattle Time has corrected its story:
"This story, published Wednesday, March 24, 2010, was corrected Friday, March 26, 2010. The prior version said a rock was thrown through the window of Ohio Democratic Rep. Steve Driehaus' Cincinnati office Sunday. Bloomberg News attributed the statement to Driehaus' spokesman Tim Mulvey. Mulvey said Friday that he was misquoted. A rock was thrown through the window of Hamilton County Democratic Party headquarters in Cincinnati, Mulvey said."
