Why doesn't Rep. King hold a hearing on radical Christianity?

[jenmito]

What about those who try to kill or DO kill doctors who perform abortions in the name of the Christian bible? Aren't there Christian terrorists just as there are Islamic terrorists?

1. Kick to see why someone unrec'ed this. n/t

[alsame]

2. Because they're part of his base. Imagine the hysteria if a

Dem wanted to hold hearings on domestic terrorism - remember the outrage when Napolitano released the report about right wing terrorism?

[jenmito]

3. I think you're right...

and yes, I CAN imagine the hysteria. The person suggesting it would have a recall petition against them immediately. Aren't there RWers who want to EXCUSE people who kill doctors who perform abortions in the name of "defending the unborn"? :eyes:

4. The right wing hate speech riles up the crazies and then

defends them when they kill someone.

"Dr Tiller the baby killer" was a Fox mantra.

[jenmito]

6. Exactly.

Once someone gets killed, the RWers who gave out all the info. about the "baby killers" had nothing to do with it.

5. Or KKK...

aryan nations,etc...these are terrorist groups.

[jenmito]

7. AKA...

teabaggers who "want their country back."

8. Don't forget, it was the late (fortunately) Jerry Falwell

whose solution to the problems in the Middle East was "mow 'em all down in the name of Jayzus!"

9. People like King feel the same way...

they just don't say it out loud. But they come close.

10. He'd have to investigate himself (given his past IRA connections).

[jenmito]

11. I know-what a hypocrite! n/t

[rury]

12. He should hold hearings on the Tea Party, the Ku Klux Klan

the Aryan nation, the state militias and Stormfront....whole host of white hate groups out there we need to be looking at!

[jenmito]

13. But he won't, because he

wants their votes.
