His little tirade on illegal immigrants and anchor babies will get him labeled a right wing nut job even though he's an off-the hinges greenie.

Does being an "off-the hinges greenie" make him a left wing nut job? Or is he just a nut job with no particular political implications?

The left is spinning this as just an anti-immigration nut:

Or one could say that the right is spinning this as just an enviro-nut:

Are you trying to be funny or do you really not understand that it's possible for him to be neither a left wing nor right wing nut job?

I'll remember you wrote this the next time someone that is right leaning does anything remotely like this in the future.

If you want to make the argument that this guy heard some left wing commentator and decided to act on that commentator's ridiculous notions, I'd be more than happy to listen.

That said, this guy's overall philosophy seems unrelated to either political party, or even their most radical cheerleaders. His apparent motivation had nothing to do with his anti-immigrant views or his more mainstream environmental views, but instead his completely nutjob idea that we should all just go die in a hole somewhere so we stop screwing up the Earth. That's not really something that falls within the political spectrum.

Where were you with this inspired position after Tiller was gunned down or the guard that was killed at the Holocaust museum? Remember all the right wing domestic terrorist howling after those events (and the deafening silence when left wing connected violence took place). How about the Oakland shooter that was allegedly inspired by Glenn Beck? Still more crickets. On the subject of inspiration, Lee was inspired by Al Gore:

You are forgetting the knob who flew his Piper into the IRS building in Austin as well.  It was supposed he was another right winger anti-tax Tea Bagger at the time.  Turns out in his manifesto he raged against Pres. Bush and the GOP as well as most everything else.

I was probably sitting in my chair, where I am now. If not, I was probably in Fayetteville. Where were you?
