MSNBC Host Has No Response to Claim that Congress ‘Endorses’ ‘Mass Murder’

[See NewsBusters for more.] MSNBC anchor Peter Alexander on Monday didn’t bother challenging an assertion by a Democratic Representative that Congress is “endorsing” “mass murder” with a failure to pursue gun control. Talking to Senator Chris Murphy, Alexander began by pushing the politician from the left: “Do you think that President Obama could do more?”  Murphy bluntly blamed, “I think that Congress is effectively, quietly endorsing these mass murders because people who are having their minds unhinged note that there is no one here in the elected legislative branch of Congress who is getting together to do something about it in a practical way.”
