Accused Arizona shooter Jared Loughner is seen smiling in a widely distributed photo of the head-shaven 22-year-old because “he knows he has the full support of a major political party in this country,” says top-ranked talker Rush Limbaugh.
Speaking to his radio audience on Tuesday, Limbaugh said about Loughner: "He knows what's going on. He knows that the Democrat Party is attempting to find anybody but him to blame.
“He knows if he plays his cards right, he's just a victim. He's the latest in a never-ending parade of victims brought about by the unfairness of America.”
Limbaugh also said in an audio
provided by The Huffington Post that Loughner “understands he's got a political party doing everything it can, plus a local sheriff doing everything that they can to make sure he's not convicted of murder — but something lesser."
