My latest Pajamas Media column is up and it's called, 'Right-Wing Rage' = Left-Wing Projection. Here's an excerpt from the column,
Since the election, the Left has alternately gloated, pleaded for conservatives and liberals to pull together to help Barack Obama in the name of unity, or shamelessly carped about "right wing rage."The gloating is expected and the unity pleas are naive, but let's talk about "right wing rage."
Among others, the LA Times has cited Rush Limbaugh & Sean Hannity, neither of whom are particularly angry guys, as right-wing rage-holics for not laying down and dying after the election. CNN's Campbell Brown has also hit this same meme which you can be certain will become more popular as time goes on.
This is actually nothing new for the Left. Back in the nineties, "Bill Clinton blamed the Oklahoma City bombing on the 'many loud and angry voices' in conservative talk radio that 'spread hate.'"
Of course, you don't have to be angry, loud, hateful, or advocate violence to be a "loud and angry voice" that "spreads hate" in the eyes of the Left. To the contrary, you merely have to disagree with them.
You can read it all here.
