Blame Shield 

(v.)
1. To immediately blame the nearest, most blamable thing for something/a situation when the real thing to blame is yourself.

This is most common with parents and leaders/people in places of power in establishments/companies, sometimes in governments.

Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue?
