Yes, that's pretty much it -- unless the conduct/event is so severely egregious, then the so-called 'liberals' will disown the perp, and/or try to blame others (including opponents).... Keep in mnd Roseanne Barr IS a LIBERAL (she ran for Prez nomination, under the Green Party (but lost)), yet anyone who didn't know better would believe 'Media' who are trying to paint her as 'far right-wing' (That's one reason why I have some tiny wonder whether it's a setup at some level) *** It's also extremely important to understand that TIME is a factor: the longer time that passes from a liberal perp's 'misconduct', the more likely that they will have a 'come-back' (where they will then be described as 'rehabilitated').... Really what happens is that the general Public has a memory span of about 3 weeks -- unless they are reminded periodically by 'Media' (to test that principle, research back in 'Media' stories over the last couple years regarding events, people, etc., and see how much of that stuff has been completley forgotten about, or deliberately dropped -- and about how much of it contradicts what is being discussed currently).
