Media Matters claims that “right-wing hatred” killed JFK

Via AllahPundit, you have to read it to believe it. Eric Boehlert claims that:

A President was killed the last time right-wing hatred ran wild like this… That being John F. Kennedy, who was gunned down in Dallas, of course.

The radical right, aided by a GOP Noise Machine that positively dwarfs what existed in 1963, has turned demonizing Obama—making him into a vile object of disgust—into a crusade. It’s a demented national jihad, the likes of which this country has not seen in modern times.

But I’ve been thinking about Dallas in 1963 because I’ve been recalling the history and how that city stood as an outpost for the radical right, which never tried to hide its contempt for the New England Democrat.

Recalling the history? Hah! What “history” is that? The one Mr. Boehlert makes up in his fairyland mind? Notice that the name “Oswald” is not mentioned once in the article. What with Oswald being a Castro-lovin’, avowed communist who had a psychopathic obsession with the Soviet Union, it would ruin the whole “right-wingers are violent” narrative that him, Pelosi and the rest of their ilk are trying to push.

Un-freakin’-believable.
