There are 2 issues: One
Joe Stack's daughter calls him a Hero. Well the apple does not fall far from the tree and she later retracted that statement via ABC. She lives in Norway and her quote is below:
AUSTIN, Texas - The daughter of a man who crashed his small plane into an IRS building in Texas is calling her father a hero.
Joe Stack's adult daughter, Samantha Bell, tells ABC's "Good Morning America" the plane attack was "inappropriate." But she praised his anti-government and anti-tax views.
Seems to me she has some problems and she also thinks that now people
will listen-well, someone is dead and he had his blog-where anyone could listen to his anti government views. He did not need to take another's life to make that statement.

TWO
Joe Stack's anti-tax IRS plane attack down in Texas was to me domestic terrorism. Oddly enough in his blog manifesto he said something noteworthy about why the Congress has not passed healthcare.
I actually heard this on the same day on NBC’s Nightly News with Brian Williams.
Here is the quote that I have not heard the MSM pick up and report on.
Why-because it is a positive for the Obama Administration and the Dems that are trying to pass healthcare.
"Yet at the same time, the joke we call the American medical system, including the drug and insurance companies, are murdering tens of thousands of people a year and stealing from the corpses and victims they cripple, and this country’s leaders don’t see this as important as bailing out a few of their vile, rich cronies. Yet, the political "representatives" (thieves, liars, and self-serving scumbags is far more accurate) have endless time to sit around for year after year and debate the state of the "terrible health care problem". It’s clear they see no crisis as long as the dead people don’t get in the way of their corporate profits rolling in."

I in no way condone what this man has done or his beliefs, but I do think it is odd that this has not been mentioned as everything else has been analyzed. And that to me is the missing question:
Aren’t there other Republican citizens that feel the same way about healthcare? Why don’t we hear more from them?
Hear is one such link (mind you- the comments afterward are crazy).

The media is not focusing on anything positive to us, Dems, but on the GOP and anything negative to boost their own ratings.
