    Bob! TheAtlantic’s politics page has your piece headlined under the “Zeitgist” section! :) http://theatlantic.com/politicsQT

    Argh! Apparently theatlantic.com/politics goes somewhere different from politics.theatlantic.com, which is where I saw Bob’s headline, and it’s not there anymore. :( QT

    Yeah, Keith & you aren’t the first to see the Beckian connection:http://jackrabbitcafe.blogspot.com/2009/04/i-lay-this-at-doorstep-parano.html

    Hey, good piece. I remember mentioning to a college professor during the early 1990s that Rush was inciting violence. My professor scoffed at me. Fast forward a year, I was sitting in the Oklahoma State Capitol complex when a bomb blew up half a mile away.Tim McVeigh was just taking things to their logical end. Right wingers amped up by Beck et al are a dangerous force.We can take your gun when we pry it from your cold dead hands? Okay, fair enough.

    Often times Hannity and Boortz will rant on a misguided, illogical, and self-made opinion on a verifiable topic that make callers go bonkers. All of these callers express sadness, then rage and want to know how they can make all of that they disagree with, get rid of their perceived offense[s]. Many have stated that more of them have guns and ammo that can be used to make the problems go away. The responses from Hannity and Boortz say MAYBE there is another approach such as voting, but neither state that this is NOT a solution. Like Beck these two must not be allowed to continue in this vein. Friends of the murderer of the policemen cited the very same verbiage spewed by Hannity…”Obama’s gonna take our guns”
