MSM advertising Eric Rudolf's "philosophy" - Outrageous
In stories about Rudolf's confession, they quote sections of his views, strategies and message. Personally I find this absolutely outrageous.

He committed his acts of domestic terrorism to draw attention to his views and now the MSM is complicit in airing those views. In this article which AOL/Time Warner put up as their number one story, he is never referred to as a "terrorist" -- in fact they parrot his own definition of himself: "warrior."

http://aolsvc.news.aol.com/news/article.adp?id=20050413054109990019&ncid=NWS00010000000001

This kind of MSM coverage (and Rudolf's equally outrageous plea bargain) will only encourage more domestic terrorists.

How dare AOL reward this MF terrorist!

1. That is horrible.
It should be illegal.

I can't imagine them doing this with anyone. The Unabomber, TImothy McVeigh.

It's like giving them a manual.

2. The contents are disgusting because...
they fit DeLay and Santorum's 'culture of life' like a glove, except that this guy presents himself as a hero because he's actually willing to defy the rule of law and they're not. Not enough anyway. So he's pretty much saying they're false prophets and he's the real deal.

And by his standards, he's right!

3. It's an Associated Press article.
No one at AOL wrote it.

5. Censored: Gonzales signed-off on the "plea bargain"
Ashcroft had signed-off on the death penealty for Rudolph, when apprehended.

Gonzales had to sign-off on dropping the death penalty. Gee, does anyone in the MSM ask if Bush was consulted? No, of course not.

The "plea bargain" is a farce. How would these Feds know if Rudolph had more explosives hidden? What about his possible accomplices? What about those who may have helped or harbored him?

Well, No Questions Asked by the MSM. No Questions Asked by the Feds.

Now, every pro-life killer will bury a few pounds of explosives as a "Get Out of an Execution" card.

Sorry, no link. However, a search on Yahoo articles might turn up the story in the Macon newspaper, which mentioned Gonzales' involvement in the "plea bargain."
