Think you know the whole story about what’s been going on in Ferguson, Mo.? Maybe — but only if you’ve been listening to talk radio this week. Michael Savage placed the blame for the violence in Ferguson directly at President Barack Obama’s feet. “Obama and [Attorney General Eric] Holder laid the groundwork from the get-go,” Savage said. “They’re Al Sharpton with a smoother act.” Rush Limbaugh agreed that someone high in the federal government orchestrated the violence on the ground in Missouri. “Somebody wanted this to happen,” Rush said. “The ongoing theory is that the White House or Washington – the DOJ, Eric Holder – called the governor of Missouri, Jay Nixon, and told him not to deploy the Guard. Because it looks like they were ready to go. They had been called up and they were placed on ready status. And then they were not used. And the feeling is that the order came from some high authority in Washington not to deploy them.” Laura Ingraham asked Missouri Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder about the lack of a national guard presence in Ferguson, and he, too, conjectured that the order not to deploy them on the first night of violence came from the highest levels of the federal government. But Mark Levin said there’s plenty of blame to spread, and more than Obama and Holder can rightly take for themselves.
