And yet, another reason for the nitwits in the Grand Old Party to blame Obama. This time, they’re accusing the president of inciting a right-winger into killing Jews.
Erik Rush, another favorite of the far right Republicans and a competing voice of Republican reasoning, has figured out the real reason for the shooting at two separate Jewish facilities where three people were killed last weekend. As far as he is concerned, it’s all Obama’s doing.
On his radio show Tuesday, Rush accused the Obama administration and the media of promoting “anti-Israel sentiment” and “fomenting racial discord between various races.”
“The anti-Semitic tone that is being tolerated, in my view, by so many in this country and as a result of the tone I believe that the administration and the press have set, they’ve chosen to capitalize on every racist incident that has happened when it is in the interests of their agenda or their ratings, fomenting racial discord between various races, between blacks and whites and the anti-Israel sentiment has become pretty much epidemic,” Rush said. “I’m kind of surprised that we haven’t seen more in the way of anti-Semitic violence.”
