Not every event in the world is part of a lurid conspiracy
Partisan passions are such that it is human nature that some... let's say enthusiastic people will assume that anyone who ever died within 1000 yards of a political opponent must have been murdered.
Look, these Republicans are bad, bad people. But even bad people do sometimes have car crashes, or die in plane crashes, or have a baby with Down's syndrome in the normal course of life. Sometimes a teenager gets a little wild while driving around rural Texas and runs a stop sign and kills someone. Sometimes an employee has a seizure and hits her head on a desk.
And good people have problems too. sometimes a very good friend commits suicide with a rusty old gun in a local park. And sometimes you drive off a bridge and a girl drowns and you can't save her even though you're a good swimmer, because you're underwater in the dark and just had a car crash. And sometimes your father who you've only met once was a Kenyan communist.
Not everything is a hot tabloid story. Not every worst and most fanciful assumption is true, even about really awful people.
Here's a really shocking story.
Corporate profits are the highest they have ever been, during the worst economic downturn since the great depression.
See, now that is a story. It's as amazing and horrible as any story. It strains credulity as much as Bigfoot. And it happened in broad daylight.
