Usual Suspects?

What with all the shenanigans surrounding the assassination of Dr. George Tiller last spring, somebody has seen fit to maintain a blog devoted to the murder. It's called RoederWatch, for the prime suspect in what amounted to an act of domestic terrorism.

Among its posts, this, about how Roeder's anti-choice supporters attempted to raise fund for his defence by auctioning off some offensive material on eBay. Stuff like a prison cookbook by a woman in jail for shooting Dr. Tiller in a previous assassination attempt -- ie. a domestic terrorist.

Here's MSNBC's Rachel Maddow on the proposed auction -- complete with a lacerating look on the anti-choice terrorists.

Today comes word that Richard Shroeder, the US marshal charged with guarding Dr. Tiller after previous threats to his life, was found dead in his driveway with "very suspicious'' head injuries.

Related? Maybe, maybe not.

But you have to figure that Shroeder was very familiar with who was stalking Tiller over the years.

UPPITY WOMAN DATE: Apologies if you couldn't see the original Maddow video, which YouTube took down since i posted this. I have now tracked down the original MSNBC clip, which comes with an ad.

Also, I see that RoederWatch is now reporting that the terrorists are complaining that eBay has discriminated against them on religious grounds.

Her career ambition as an opinionator dates back to Grade 9 when a cartoon commentary on a teacher resulted in her suspension from high school. The principal sent her home with a note calling her "rude, obstreperous and bold." Her parents were neither amused, nor surprised. Once she was punished for being that way. Now she makes it pay. And, because she can take it as well as dish it out, she wants to hear what you have to say. Fire away!
