“I look like a dude” – Rachel Maddow

Sean Hannity recently referred to a group of Tea Party activists as “Tim McVeigh wannabes.”
I’ve seen a few on DU claim Hannity was being sarcastic because Tea Party activists are being
referred by the left as “Teahadists.” If indeed it was an inside joke among the right wing,
why didn’t the crowd laugh at such an absurd comparison, and instead applauded with approval?

Authorities were trying to determine Friday how an 8-year-old boy obtained a loaded handgun that was found in his backpack by school police after he made threats toward a classmate.

The third-grader at Sharp-Leadenhall Elementary School, a small Baltimore City school for special-needs children, was arrested Thursday afternoon and charged as a juvenile with handgun possession. School officials said the boy was “acting suspiciously” and staff began closely monitoring his behavior, which led to a search of his backpack and the discovery of a .380-caliber handgun.
