DescriptionThere is a disturbing nexus between Sunday’s news that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-AZ, is leaving Congress and Marianne Gingrich’s ABC interview last Thursday about her ex-husband’s character.

Just a year ago, conservatives were justifiably angered that they were, without any evidence, being blamed by many in the liberal media for Jared Loughner’s attempted assassination of Giffords and the deaths of six others in the same tragedy.

Newt Gingrich unleashed his fury at those making the accusation: “People who on the left have every possible incentive to never allow anyone to draw conclusions, suddenly say things that are just factually untrue…. This person was apparently by any reasonable standard deranged.”

Yet Gingrich himself has a long history of similarly abusing the political left, blaming liberals for the actions of mentally deranged killers.
