No comment on the horrific Norwegian tragedy?

I missed Rush's show today, but in looking at the headlines of the transcript of today's show, it doesn't look like he mentioned it at all.

That's quite an omission.

Well, the thing of it is, is, that Rush - and others - have been ridiculing "Big Sis" aka Janet Napolitano for some time. I believe she said that the US has more to fear from home grown, far right wing terrrism than from Muslims, and everyone scoffed at this.

And indeed, 90% of all terrorism in the US and the world is from Islamic terrorists, and only 10% (as for example Oklahoma City) is from far-right folk.

But with the massacre from this blond-haired Norwegian, of over 90 innocent people, it just goes to show that these days, we must be afraid of everyone, because it seems they all believe in violence as the first resort. (Apparently this guy was against Muslims, so instead of killing Muslims he kills young people who are attending a camp put on by a Labor Party that is encouraging Muslim immigration. Still makes no sense, and I dare say people will now bend over backward to accept Muslims just to spite this lunatic, so he will accomplish precisely the reverse of what he wanted to accomplish.

Meantime, Glen Beck is under fire for supposedly carrying the Norwegian youth camp to Hitler Youth, because it was sponsored by a political party, in this case the Labor Party. This is a case of past actions coming back to bite you, because he apparently hosted his own camp for kids last year, in which he taught political literacy.

But perhaps he's thinking, it's okay for private citizens to indoctrinate people into their political beliefs, it's not okay for political parties to do so?

While I don't think Beck seriously thought of the Norwegian kids as anything close to Hitler Youth, it was a bit thoughtless to say that about massacred innocents.
