Far Left website TPM Muckraker took the offical walk of shame today and admitted that one of their unhinged bloggers was arrested for firebombing Congressman Russ Carnahan’s office. The suspected firebomber blogs at TPM under the name “Ripper McCord.”

When Leftie Bloggers Attack…

Dem operative, Russ Carnahan staffer, TPM blogger and suspected firebomber Chris Powers is the sweaty one pictured here on right during a rally for nationalized health care. Powers reportedly is was a paid canvasser for Russ Carnahan.
TPM reported:

Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-MO) confirmed in a press conference yesterday that the suspect in an alleged arson at Carnahan’s campaign office is a former paid campaign worker named Chris Powers.

Powers has not been charged in the arson case. In a phone interview this morning with TPMmuckraker, Powers denied having any involvement with what local reports have described as a “fire bombing.”

    Hello,
    I am not surprised that a demo-"RAT" party member was at fault here. It is evident from all the things that we see they will do everything in there power to distort the truth, and to lie, and to deceive people into believing there garbage at any cost to everybody involved.

  2. Fine job of distortion once again, Caleb. Someone has to go to the jump to see the line, "Any TPM reader can create a blog and comment on the site, and Powers is not affiliated with TPM."

    So blaming TPM or Carnahan (who was the victim, remember?) would be like blaming the Western Journalism Center if one of the unhinged "by any means necessary" "new civil war" "string 'em up" "shoot him" wackjobs who anonymously posts here commits a crime. I guess that seems fair.

      James,
      Get your facts straight!
      Your post is totally in Error!
      Can you do no better than this?
      You seem to have become unhinged as of late!
      This is nothing more than a failed & blotched attempt which has gone array by Rep. Russ Carnahan & The Democratic Party to falsely accuse Conservatives of wrong doing in the fire bombing of his office. What they never planned on was Chris Powers( their own salaried employee
      campaign canvessor) ever being caught. Simply put as you would say! There is no other logical
      explanation or reason for Powers to have committed this act otherwise!
      Can you do no better than this?Just spin & lies as usual from you! Just no challenge to me at all!
      P.S.
      Once the investigation is finalized in the stabbing of Cabbie Ahmed Sharif who may i add was not in support of the Mmosque being built near Ground Zero. Michael Enriht the alledged stabber who is a far left liberal will admit that his motivation to have committed this pathetic crime was to have fostered support for the Mosque being built at Ground Zero..
