Right-wing conspiracy: Sherrod controversy "orchestrated" by the White House to "smear Breitbart"

As Andrew Breitbart's Shirley Sherrod smear dissolved, rather than blame Breitbart for posting the deceptive clip of her speech, Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, and Rush Limbaugh ludicrously began speculating that he and the conservative media could have been the victim of a "set-up" that had been "orchestrated" by the White House.

2. I almost spit soda all over the monitor on that one
I suppose if people aren't buying the fearless crusader bit, you might as well turn to martyrdom.

3. Planned 24 years ago, too!

She knew about the up-and-coming young Kenyan boy who was destined to be the Muslin infiltrator-president, and so began the long journey of assisting a white farmer, then carefully drafting a speech that would easily be spliced out of context by a conservative website. She knew how popular the internet would be, too!

:crazy:

4. They really think this administration is full of plotting and scheming
I'm sure Obama and his team sit around all day and night plotting against lowly conservatives bloggers.

7. Talk about reaching!
If this had been orchestrated by the White House, they wouldn't have fired her before revealing the rest of the tape.

11. Classic rovian move: accuse your victim of what you just did to him.
And the compliant media will lap it up and vomit it back out undigested.

14. They use it ALL the time. Everything Rush has said about this has been a
Projection of their evil onto the "left". Like we're just as hateful and underhanded as them. But of course, THEY would never be evil and underhanded, or racist, Heavens no! What bullshit salesman they all are. So frustrating.

15. That's when you know the shit has hit the fan
The RW cannot avoid that they messed up, so they can only try to blame someone else for their mistake.
