Jared Loughner almost certainly had never heard of Sarah Palin back in 2007 when he first developed the psychotic fixation on Gabrielle Giffords that climaxed in mass murder. He did not follow the news, and there is no evidence whatsoever that he was motivated in any way by any conservative. But that’s not going to stop MSNBC from exploiting the tragedy.

Spinning the news is behind this astonishingly vile network. Now they invent it out of whole cloth. Check out the graphic they’ve been running with Tucson stories:

That is to say, the words of those who don’t agree with MSNBC’s depraved political agenda caused Loughner to act. This isn’t lousy analysis or even wishful thinking. It is a bald-faced lie.

The lie is working on those who choose to drink the Kool-Aid:

Who else would be to blame? Sarah Palin of course. Evidence of any connection whatsoever is unnecessary. Like Bush 43 and Emmanuel Goldstein before her, Sarah Palin is responsible for all things bad.

Even among Americans at large, an alarming 32% have been duped into taking seriously the “mainstream” media’s surreal presentation of the killings as caused by conservatives being allowed to express their views.

Speaking of fostering political violence, death threats against Palin are through the roof since MSNBC and the rest of the liberal media establishment launched their grotesque campaign to pin the Tucson Massacre on her.

The liberal media isn’t just biased and irresponsible, it is poisonous. America has a choice between coughing it up and getting very sick.
