Identify instances where the Leftist media tried to pin something on the Tea Party where it ended up being Muslims or Leftists who committed those crimes

Full title.

Today, in the wake of the assassination attempt on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (which left 5 confirmed dead and over a dozen seriously injured, including the Congresswoman herself), the Leftist media tried desperately to pin this attack on the Tea Party movement and conservatives.

In reality, the would-be assassin was 22 year old Jared Lee Loughner, a confirmed Leftist who was upset Congresswoman Giffords opposed Nancy Pelosi and the Left’s open borders agenda.

What are other instances where the Leftist media attempted to pin some terrible event on the Tea Party or conservatives in general, where it turned out the atrocities were committed either by Leftist Democrats or Muslims?

We can think of a three others right off the top of our heads:

(1) NYC Times Square car bomb attempt: where Mayor Michael Bloomberg and the Leftist media attempted to blame the Tea Party, but it was a Muslim who was responsible for attempting to detonate a car filled with makeshift explosives bent on murdering scores of people in Times Square.

(2) February 2010 IRS plane attack: where the Leftist media tried to claim the Tea Party was involved in an attack on an Austin, Texas IRS facility; turns out the pilot was a Democrat.

(3) Ft. Hood attack: where the Leftist media tried to claim the Tea Party was responsible for murders on an Army base; turns out it was a Muslim who shouted “Admiral Akbar!” at the top of his lungs while opening fire on his fellow soldiers.

Can you cite other instances where the Leftist media has tried its best to pin something on Tea Party members when in the end it turns out Muslims or Leftists were actually responsible?

1995. Anti-government nutjob Timothy James McVeigh blows up the Murragh Federal Building in Oklahoma City. Bill Clinton blames it on El Rushbo fomenting a “climate of hatred”.

The left also tries to spin the OKC Bombing as an act of "Christian terrorism" even though Timothy McVeigh was an admitted agnostic.

MY GUY?

You'd better read the text again sport...I'm saying that if the TEA party, Palin, Beck, et al are supposed to be responsible for the Arizona shooting, the LOGIC HOLDS THAT OBAMA IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FORT HOOD SHOOTINGS BECAUSE HE PROMOTES ISLAM, AND PROGRESSIVEISM, JIHAD AND ALL THAT.

I don't get your anger, but if you think I'm siding with that muslim POS, you can kiss my ass...and learn to read.

How about the Kentucky census worker found hanging with "FED" scrawled on his chest?

The lefties went nuts blaming "crazy government-hating right-wingers" until it turns out the guy had cancer, had $600,000 insurance policy and a son deeply in debt.

Don’t forget that census worker that killed himself but tried to frame his suicide as a murder by an anti-government nutjob. The rabid media fell for it, hook, line, sinker—blaming it on some Tea Party member that was driven over the edge.

These people are the same ones who refuse to accept that a Castro living communist killed Kennedy, therefore it must have been some kind of major right wing/big business conspiracy. Also, they don’t want to admit radical muslims are out to destroy us so they insist 9/11/01 was all Bush’s doing.

The left is desperately scared of conservative thoughts and actions because they haven’t been able to infiltrate the structure like they have infiltrated just about everything else, the media, Hollywood, universities, unions (public and private). When they try we just laugh at them and that drives them up the wall. Their response is to blame every tragedy on any and every symbol of the Right and make all unfortunate members of society victims of some bad conservative ogre. Tell the lie often enough and people start believing it’s true.

The Goldberg’s book, LIBERAL FASCISM, it’s mentioned that young Dan Rather blamed southern conservatives for Kennedy’s death. It turned out to be a Communist.

"Fox News is becoming more left wing..I only watch them because its the only network I can stomach"

My DTV package recently added FBN (Fox Business News). I have watched it a couple of times, and this is the first time, outside of catastrophe, that I have willing watched anything on any news channel since Sept., 2001.
