What Josh Marshall Said

From Talkingpointsmemo:
Caution in the light of factual uncertainty is almost always a laudable stance for journalists and public officials. But from the beginning of yesterday's attack on the Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs there's been an odd reluctance to state what appears to be obvious: that the attacker, now identified as 57 year old Robert Lewis Dear, was motivated by extremist anti-abortion politics. The Denver Post headline states "Planned Parenthood shootings increasingly seem politically motivated" - and this after numerous accounts state that Dear was ranting about "no more baby parts" after his arrest, almost certainly a reference to the incitement earlier this fall over a doctored anti-Planned Parenthood sting video. Let's remember, false claims and incitement about selling "body parts" were a staple of Fox News segments and tirades from Republican presidential candidates all through the Fall.
And remember they were false claims about selling "baby parts" and anyone who spread them carries a little responsibility for any violence that occurred because of them.

Using TPM standard
And remember they were false claims about" 1% getting their money by swindling it from the 99%"" and anyone who spread them carries a little responsibility for any violence such as the Cheshire Connecticut home invasion murders that occurred because of them.

Hopefully the Obama Regime will put David Daleiden in jail for accessory to murder for his YouTube videos like they did for the filmmaker responsible for Benghazi and should have done to Sarah Palin for her role in the 2011 Tucson shooting.
