From The Radical Center

Former flunky to Rudy Giuliani John Avlon fills some space on the Daily Beast server w/ an excerpt from his now available from Beast Books book, tied in to the nabbing this wk. of another string-of-adjectives collection of American genetic drift, & their alleged guns & bomb-making gear. See: The Internet.

As that goofy Olbermann fellow has repeated several times as we've been typing this, "Where are all the Left-Wing Militias?" Speaking of Olbermann, why is his mug w/ two actual loons on Avlon's book?
Sure, he's what passes for left in these United Snakes today, but do they really mean to include him in the lunatic fringe? Olbermann's not nearly as far in the tank for Obama as Beck is out of said tank. At its worst (& we find it amusing) MSNBC does about what FOX News does during its news, not opinion segments, report everything bad about the opposition. FOX, at its worst, doesn't report a damn thing, but speculates wildly & presents paranoid fantasies as fact. There's where America gets hijacked.

We'll assume (We know what the results of assumption are, thank you.) Mr. Avlon gets at echo chambers, polarization, etc., & offers Olbermann & Rachel Maddow as examples of the left being worse than real Americans in his book, but we've no recollection of his presenting a long list of, again, all those left-wing militias since his contributions to The Daily Bleat began several mos. ago. Is "being objective" objectively pro-fascist?
