Terrible…
I sure hope this isn’t the opening salvo.
Apparently secondary devices are being found around Boston at the moment …
It’s either Al Qaeda, another fringe radical Liberal group, or another democrat on psychotropic drugs again.
Obama said the war on terrorism is over …
Well at least the killer didn’t have an 80 year old .25 auto pistol, or someone really could have been hurt.
Bloomberg forms new group: Mayors against bombs.
Not on your life.
The Obama administration is probably looking for Tea Party members to pin this on as we speak.
Tea Party member? This time they will probably harass a rent-a-cop like in Atlanta.
I wonder how long it will take before the politically correct
realize Muslims set off the bombs. I am just assuming it’s Muslims again.
Gee, maybe I should not be so judgemental and hasty in my guess.

“It took Esquire Magazine just a matter of minutes to blame “Patriots Day” supporters for the bomb blasts today in Boston that killed twelve people and injured several others.”
Patriots = TEA Party supporters

Wheres Bill Ayers and wife?
CBC says “two dead” in Boston.
No comment on who may have done it.
Reportedly Wolf Blitzer has also pointed his finger toward the right-leaning anti-tax crowd.
Premature to assert that it’s any particular group at this point, but his comments seem especially poorly reasoned, unless there are government offices at the location. It being Patriots Day isn’t much in the way of support for his innuendo.
My sister was there watching her husband run. Both OK thank God. Needless to say my heart sank at the news at first. Took her 4 minutes to respond to my text. Needless to say my heart was in my throat. Please all say prayers for the victims.
Oh dear Lord, from The New York Post via Hot Air:
“A federal law-enforcement source confirmed to The Post there are at least 12 dead and nearly 50 injured. Fox News reported that Massachusetts General Hospital was treating 10 people with amputated limbs and all operating rooms were on hold.”
Reports that an injured suspect has been IDed and is in hospital.
Glad to hear that your loved ones are safe!
Where the hell were the TSA and DHS? Or were they out with the Chimp in Chief,golfing again?
497947???
At the top of the recent military list is the terrifying group
the US Army might have to tackle one day: the evangelical Christians. Think Catholics were second on the list.
Bombs need to be banned, or at the very least registered.
Did this guy have a licence? Probably not.
We should ban urban bombs entirely and only allow the “duck hunters” to carry conventional bombs with a 100 yard blast radius.
Leftist NYT’s Op Ed Nick Kristof can’t help himself, blames Republicans for Boston Marathon Bombing… Kristoff is completely and utterly shameless.
Thanks KVB. My sister’s husband had finished already and was with one of his running buddies watching near the finish line. It took here a while before she found him.
Apparently the JFK library was also bombed. Confirmed by the boston police…
Well, the article cited makes mention that the finish line was dedicated to the victims of the Newtown CT shootings. I assume that this point was included to suggest that the perpetrators were NRA Second Amendment supporters
Brief reports from the New York Post reporting Saudi suspect with shrapnel injuries has been arrested.

NY Post is claiming a Saudi national is under guard as a suspect in hospital…
Correction: I should have typed “under guard” and not, literally, “arrested” yet.
abc running vid of explosion now with sound. very powerful.
The “lets do the things the SMART way president” will soon tell us that this was not an act of terrorism. It was merely sports venue violence. Whew! It is a relief to know that it was sports venue violence and not those pesky Icelanders again.
Cellphone service is now shutdown in boston to stop further detonations.
NY Post link here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68toCAiPIjo
I just watched the statement and q/a from the media.
Not one intelligent question.
The coverage was just fine with video feeds … then the “reporters” got involved and it all went to shit.
Saudi National???
Oh gawd no!
Now Obamba will need to fly to Saudi to bow and ass kiss a prince or two again. The rest of us get more cultural sensitivity training, whoopie.
Revolting…apparently 12 dead, 50 injured now.
http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/two_explosions_at_boston_marathon_iMR0LCkcwASg0RQfVsH1yI
12 dead, at least more 50 injured after 2 explosions rock Boston Marathon, suspect identified and being guarded in hospital
Another act of war, perpetrated on the American people, because marathon runners are threatening to whom exactly?
Cheers

Army Group “True North”
Poor Saudi bugger was probably just an innocent bystander. Mind you, an Arab at a sporting event seems counter-intuitive – not many jocks. With bombers, the dumb ones blow themselves up and the smart ones use remote detonation.
NY Post story now being called into question…
Am I the only one who thinks that pointing fingers at “suspects” be they purported Muslims or some “right” wing (why not left?) nutters is totally idiotic & inflammatory since we apparently know nothing at all?
I thought so.
So why are those moral & intellectual midgets of the press doing it? Shame on them.
Grok: “Obama said the war on terrorism is over …”
Did he happen to say who won?
Fred2
they just gotsta be first!!!!
Then there is this pic …https://twitter.com/Eric_Twardzik/status/323910549895262210/photo/1
This is awful. My heart goes out to the victims and their families. And pointing fingers at this point is completely premature and irresponsible. Hopefully, sound police work will identify the perps. This seems a bit much for a lone operative, though not impossible.
I hear they’re looking for Catholics, Evangelicals and Jewish Defence League members as the most likely suspects.
April 15 marks the 65th anniversary of the founding of the modern State of Israel. Shep didn’t come up with that one, nor Wolf?
Boston officials are now calling it a terrorist attack.
“FLASH” At Obama news conference, Obama to put Benghazi investigators in charge under the leadership of Eric Holder!
Here are some good pictures of the aftermath. The one that you have to click on to see is very graphic. It shows a man missing the lower part of one leg. Don’t look if you are squeamish.

So minutes after Obama has his press conference where he of course once again refuses to say it’s terrorism, he sends out “administration officials” to the press to call it terrorism for him. Just remember, this guy is NOT A MUSLIM.
If nothing else, this story has knocked off Justin’s first appearance in the HOC as lead item.
Just heard, one of the dead is an 8 year old kid. DISGUSTING!
