TYT: Andrea Tantaros: Liberals Indicting Entire Religion… Christian White Republicans



In the wake of the Planned Parenthood terrorist attack, there was another sort of concern that Fox hosts raised. Some thought the left was too quick to jump to conclusions about the man shooting up a Planned Parenthood. Ana Kasparian (The Point) and John Iadarola (Think Tank), hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Fox News host Andrea Tantaros blasted liberals on Monday for “indicting an entire religion” of “Christian white Republicans” following last week’s domestic terror attacks on a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado.

“I think this was pretty predictable,” Tantaros said. “You saw on Twitter a lot of people rushing to judgement. The same people who hesitate using the phrase Islamic terrorism were very quick to use the term ‘Christian’.”..

Fox News contributor Rachel Campos-Duffy argued that liberals were trying to tie the attacks to the anti-abortion movement as a plot to derail upcoming congressional hearings on Planned Parenthood.

“They are deeply embarrassed about these videos,” she insisted. “It pulled the curtain on what really happens in the back rooms of those abortion clinics. And that’s what this is about, they want to muzzle us.”

Tantaros added that “the left” wanted to stop all talk about “the illegal harvesting of baby parts on the off chance that some lunatic out there might hear that rhetoric and decide to go shoot up a clinic.””*

People in "non-violent" movements DO NOT WALK INTO MEDICAL CLINICS WITH RIFLES AND SHOOT TWELVE PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY DON'T LIKE WHAT KIND OF CARE IS BEING DONE THERE!

....you would be hard-pressed to see a lunatic like this on any network. She is reminiscent of a time pre-WW2 when the crazy brought out the Mussolini's and the Hitler's. I guess since the wounds from that war were still fresh ('60s and '70s), the networks decided to tamp down this sickness. I think Ronnie Raygun's unleashed this Pandora's box and we can't seem to put these demons (idiots) back in the box.

There is a White Christian Republican denomination? If so, they MUST be stripped of their tax-exempt status.

What about White Christian Liberals?
