If anything bad happens, they blame the Republicans.
It's how they view the world.
They blame anyway.
1. The smear on Rush is very well known and unique in that 41 Democrat Senators signed a letter to pressure Rush's network and repeated the smear.
2. O'Reilly was attacked on a bogus racism charge.
3. Randi Rhodes and friends falsely accused the Right of mugging her.
4. George Washington University lefties put together a hate poster and accused the Young America Foundation of putting out the poster.
And this list is by no means complete. I cannot think of a comparable smear by the right.
