"Nicholas Kristof account@NickKristof
explosion is a reminder that ATF needs a director. Shame on Senate Republicans for blocking apptment "
Next thing you know, they'll try and see how they can tie it to Newtown and guns. Despicable dirtbags. No matter the crisis, we have horrible human biengs that do this, and sure looks like they're usually from the Left.
Republicans want to cut, cut, cut. They don't want to cut the perks and tax advantages that the rich enjoy. Suddenly with President Obama at the helm, they are obsessed with spending. When Bush was in office, they sat quietly by picking their noses in warmongering spending bliss.
With obstructionists like Boehner and McConnell taking the low road, I think there is a connection between the cutting that Republicans are irrationally facilitating, and these explosions. Reduced resources because of spending cuts. Decreased security, decreased intelligence gathering and tracking, and so forth because of Republican cuts. This allows those who would typically be prevented from doing harm here in the States, easier access.
Ultimately, these explosions are a consequence of the drag that Republicans represent on this society. Shame on this society for allowing Republicans to continue to exist and have influence, especially in Congress.
We're spending more than ever and your only response is, waa, waa, waa, we're cutting.
Reports are that Tufts Medical Center has been evacuated of visitors and family members, (not patients), and a SWAT team has surrounded a man wearing a long, black jacket who was carrying a backpack.

They have a SAUDI NATIONAL in custody. So far this looks like a terrorist attack on innocent people running a road race on a beautiful spring day. Incidentally, it is a state holiday here in MA, Patriot's Day, the day of the shot heard 'round the world, the shot that started the American Revolution HERE in MASSACHUSETTS. WE still celebrate it. So they are trying to ruin it.
disgusting what this country has come to. Liberals are gonna somehow connect guns to this tragedy and conservatives are gonna respond by saying if someone there was armed it would have been stopped. This has nothing to do with politics
