If it wasn’t already apparent from the fact that he allegedly tried to assassinate the president, this video confirms Oscar Ortega-Hernandez has been an unhinged lunatic for quite some time now:

It was fair for conservatives to question whether Ortega-Hernandez was involved with Occupy DC, after there were reports he may have been hiding out at the demonstration. The problem with the Occupy movement is that it attracts nutcases and criminals to its protests, which is a safety hazard – and a good reason for shutting down its campsites. But to say Ortega-Hernandez was motivated by the politics of the Occupy movement is just as baseless as when the left (and mainstream media) tried to link Jared Loughner to conservative politics.

That said, it probably won’t be long before the left and the media start hinting Ortega-Hernandez was influenced by the (manufactured) right-wing, Obama-is-the-antichrist movement. And there are likely going to be conservatives who will claim Ortega-Hernandez’s ravings about the U.S.’s “wars for oil” show he’s a product of the left-wing anti-war movement. But in the end, I think we can all agree that sending a video to Oprah Winfrey telling her you’re Jesus and need to deliver an urgent message to the nation is simply crazy. No ideological motive necessary.
