Here is an update from the New York Times,
Guide to the Bombing at the Boston Marathon

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: April 16, 2013 at 6:56 AM ET


(excerpts)

Three people were killed, including an 8-year-old boy, and more than 140 were injured ..

The FBI took charge of the investigation into the bombings, serving a warrant late Monday on an apartment in the suburban Boston town of Revere and appealing for any video, audio and still images taken by marathon spectators ...

No arrests had been made, and authorities weren't commenting about suspects ...

The president was careful not to use the words "terrorism" or "terrorist attack" in his remarks, but a White House official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding, said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism ...

Obama will be briefed Tuesday on the investigation and the ongoing response efforts from FBI Director Robert Mueller, homeland security ...

So you think that the New York Post is a tabloid for reporting that a Saudi national is under guard in hospital but CNN is a bastion of journalistic integrity for speculation about the NRA and right wing being responsible?

I'm seriously trying to work out the mindset of a reasonable democrat supporter compared to what resides on sites like the Democratic Underground that seem to reveal the extremism at the edges are actually more common place among the self described non-radicalised than most lefties care to admit...just like the Muslims.

Frankly, we should send all you radicalists that hate our society and capitalism to live together in one disgusting hell hole. You would be begging to come back to live in civilisation with promises of not to whine and not white ant what has been established for thousands of years simply because you have the right to whinge because you have no idea how good you have it.

If you want to whine about how others have it so bad, go live their life...instead of crying crocodile tears from your ivory towers.

I like my ivory tower.
It's shiny and I might give you a wave from it, but I'm not about to feel guilty about it either.

I did see a unit that housed the charity "People Who Care" and I though I could easily out beg them with a charity "People Who Don't Give A Shit"....put both together in a shopping mall and I know who would get the most.

Society is sick of whiners and they are sick of being made to feel guilty.

Why would he be careful about that?
Does Obama have to wait until he finds out the race or religion of the perp before he can label a civilian bombing as terrorism?

Is reminding many of Eric Rudolph at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. The FBI got that one all wrong.

Then there is FOX News and the NY Post engaging in Islamophobia, calling for retribution against the *sand niggers*

It could be anyone I'm sure, but no doubt that targeting innocent civilians outside a war zone with multiple IEDs is something that is a hallmark of

1. Radical Islamists with a political agenda
2. The mentally ill who have studied radical Islamists

In the end, it is all terrorism it is just that we have imported terrorist tactics via uncontrolled immigration

You are sounding a bit defensive there AiA? I didn't mention anything about Obamas failure to atop terrorist attacks on home soil...but now that you mention it...
