The NYT would not have allowed and editoral blaming Muslims to be printed right after the Ft Hood attack. The NYT has a well established bias that extends beyond the editoral board. The Washington Post is just as bad. Look at the politcal cartoon they ran after it was clear the Tea Party was not involved.

Without supporting that argument. He was fixated on 2012 and other conspiracy topics. I would say Above Top Secret may be more to blame then any mainstream political debate. There does not seem to be any evidence that he even followed mainstream politics. So no it isn't safe to assume the political climate was an issue when there is no evidence that he even followed the political climate. This guy was much more likely to get his information from crazy blogs then Fox News. Should we launch a campaign against crazy conspiracy theory blogs?

The only thing that it is safe to assume is this issue is being used by the left to try and silence critics. “Don’t criticize government or some crazy man might attack it”. I can see why they would want to try it but I can se why people would buy it.
