Christian Science Monitor Falsely Labels John Patrick Bedel As Right-Wing Extremist
Topics: Political News and commentariesIt appears that Peter Grier, staff writer at the Christian Science Monitor, not only simply makes up his facts as he goes along but also has a reading comprehension problem juxtaposed with an obvious anti-right political bias. He has incorrectly labeled anti-Bush nutcase - 9/11 truther/Pentagon shooter John Patrick Bedel as a "right-wing extremist with virulent antigovernment feelings" when in fact, had he not selectively picked through and referenced Bedell's supposed Wikipedia posting, he would have clearly realized that Bedel is nothing less than a radical left-winger.
As Paterico points out, Internet research shows that the guy was a 9/11 Truther and an anti-Bush nut case:
Via Charles Johnson comes this link to some crazy ranting from the guy. It was recorded in November 2006 -- when Bush was president, to belabor the obvious.Paterico transcribed a part of the audio in which he is speaking of criminal organizations working within the U.S. Government:
This criminal organization would use its powers to convert military, intelligence, and law enforcement bureaucracies into instruments for political control, and the domination and subjection of society, while discrediting, destroying, and murdering honest individuals within those services, that work to root out corruption, and faithfully serve their fellow citizens. This organization, like so many murderous governments throughout history, would see the sacrifice of thousands of its citizens in an event such as the September 11 attacks, as a small cost in order to perpetuate its barbaric control. This collection of gangsters would find it in their interest to foment conflict and initiate wars throughout the world, in order to divert attention from their misconduct and criminality. The true nature of such a regime would find its clearest expression in the satanic violence currently ongoing in Iraq.Paterico goes on to note that there is also "plenty of creepily nerdy/calm ranting about government control of the economy," and as a correspondent wrote to him: "If he thought Bush was out to get private property, just imagine what he thought after Obama's first year."
Right winger? No way, Mr. Peter Grier, staff writer at the Christian Science Monitor; it's time for you to go back to school and brush up on your reading comprehension while clearing your head of your left-wing, anti-conservative, world view.
Update: Stop playing games, MSM. John Patrick Bedell was a registered Democrat
