Rush to blame Glenn Beck

Of course they blamed the oil spill on Bush. On one hand, Bloomberg was blaming it on a right winger upset by the health care bill and last night this individual blamed it on Glenn Beck and then actually lamented the fact that she was wrong, hard as that might be to believe, calling us "wingnuts" because we think terrorists might be, gasp, Islamic.

This reminds me very much of the Left's rush to blame Glenn Beck in the Sparkman case in Kentucky. Neither Andrew Sullivan ("Southern populist terrorism") nor Rick Ungar ("Send the Body to Glenn Beck") has ever apologized for their misguided speculation in a case that ultimately proved to be a suicide, rather than a right-wing hate crime.
