The lastest far left smear attack on Senator Brown

They’ve thrown everything they can at him, from the kitchen sink to the fact that his wife and daughters wear bikinis (scandalous!), and nothing has stuck, but that doesn’t keep them from trying. The latest far left ‘scandal’ on Senator Brown is that, rather than being forcefully condemning, he is a sympathetic b*stard trying to make excuses for the so-called “Tea Party plane crasher (more here).” In essence, they’re saying he was “sympathetic” to a “far right domestic terrorist.”

William Jacobson takes down their bogus accusations here by doing something that is unique to sites like “Think Progress”: Actually watching and listening to the video of what he said on Neil Cavuto’s show yesterday in context, and posting the relevant part of the transcript. As a result, another far left Scott Brown smear attempt goes down in flames.

Bob Owens wonders if lefty sites like Think Progress are actually capable of publishing the truth:

I often disagree with how my peers on the left and right view things, but I can at least understand that their view—how ever much I disagree with it or view it to be distorted—is an honest one.

I can’t say the same, however, about Media Matters or Think Progress, who like their nutty contemporaries at World Net Daily, seem intent on twisting even the most innocuous, innocent statement into something approaching an outright misrepresentation or lie. For a pair of sites that revel in painting their opposition as monsters in love with waterboarding, they seem far too comfortable with torturing reality.

[…]

I almost feel sorry for them, individuals so wedded to an intellectually bankrupt ideology that they’ve given up all decency, integrity and honor in order to viciously cycle lies for a living. Anything to be relevant, I suppose. Even if that relevance is based upon habitual deception.

Yep. “By any means necessary” is the MO for this crowd. Pathetic.

BTW, is it just me, or has anyone else noticed how, for example, when an alleged right wing fringe lunatic who has leftist tendencies as well commits a horrific act of violence he is labeled a “right winger,” but if it’s a left wing fringe lunatic like Stack who only shares one or two things in common with the right wing (like not being a fan of the IRS) he’s a “mixed bag”? Gotta love it. There is no such thing as a “left wing domestic terrorist,” didntcha know?
