1. You can't find logic from crazy. Crazy doesn't work that way.

I saw this promo too and my jaw dropped. Hopefully there will be more coverage of the damage done and the innocent people who were harmed than there will be of McVeigh's ridiculous rants to show people that nothing good will ever come from domestic terrorism.

Personally, I think it is a bad idea and just makes him seem more glorified in the eyes of the freaks.
and those of us who find it disgusting may watch it just for the morbid curiosity factor...
Some seem to think that it isn't healthy to sweep it under the rug, and that Rachel Maddow (the host) will bring her usual clarity to the story...

But I still think it is a bad idea and the DATE is the worst...the wingnuts already have an "open carry" thing happening on that day in DC... why should we immortalize THAT date in ANY way? If anything, they should air it on the anniversary of his excution IMO...

(here's my thread form last night, didn't get much support http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x8079095)

4. Exactly!

These freaks have ALREADY taken up too much time in our National debate, taken too many lives, and caused too much drama to DESERVE any more attention. I am actually SICK of hearing about them on all fronts.

My grandma used to say that if you ignore the bullies, they will eventually give up and go back home...
