		<description><![CDATA[Conservatives are seeking to evade culpability after their irresponsible speech has provoked the delusional to violence. It’s difficult to directly link violent political rhetoric like Sarah Palin’s illustration showing gun sight cross hairs on U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords’ Arizona district to Jared L. Loughner’s shooting spree last weekend that left six dead and Giffords and 13 others wounded.
