Not only that, he left a note that ranted about liberals and gays ruining this country. 

According to the Knoxnews.com (insert ironic comment here on the similarity to Foxnews.com): Inside the house, officers found "Liberalism is a Mental Health Disorder" by radio talk show host Michael Savage, "Let Freedom Ring" by talk show host Sean Hannity, and "The O'Reilly Factor," by television talk show host Bill O'Reilly.

Savage is a nasty piece of work all around.  Hannity and O'Reilly aren't too far behind.  It is not surprising that some desperate and borderline personality would find an outlet in the kind of mean spirited stuff that they use to attract an audience. 

What was even more fascinating is that man was a Vietnam veteran, out of work, and his food stamp benefits were about to run out.

If ever there was a case of misplaced anger, this case fits the bill.   

Sadly, a bunch of kids will live with this trauma for the rest of their lives and 2 people are dead.

If there is a silver lining on this, I'm hard pressed to find one.

I wonder if his conservative values include support of the death penalty. Tennessee has the death penalty but they don't appear to use it very frequently. He sounds like a great candidate.

I'm sure this guy listened to those rants (savage, hannity, o'reilly) 24/7.   So much so, that they just took over every rational, independent thought the guy ever had. 

It doesn't matter if you hear this sh#t from the left or from the right.  Either way, you're going to self-destruct.

My stomach turned on this news, as it does whenever I hear about some one/group/org/etc that is so threatened by a viewpoint that they need to resort to physical violence.
