Speaking of Eliminationists…

Hey, remember last week when the Washington Post did a shockingly whitewashed profile on radical anti-choice domestic terrorist Randall Terry? Good times.

Yeah, two days later, he sent out a press release (over the "Christian News Wire") that warned of "horrific consequences" and "violent convulsions" if healthcare reform contains any federal funding for abortion counseling or services:

"Let all those in government be warned: They cannot order people to pay for the murder of babies, and betray God Himself, without horrific consequences." -- Randall Terry

Background: It is clear that many elements in the pro-abortion congress and White House want to force Americans to pay for the murder of the unborn in their "healthcare" program. If that happens, it is tantamount to the government putting a gun to taxpayers' heads to pay for the brutal murder of an innocent child. This is tyranny and evil of the highest order.

"Please understand: neither I, nor any thinking person wants the convulsions that would inevitably come from such a government policy -- the decision to force Americans to pay for the murder of their neighbor.

"Nevertheless, the sheer horror and frustration of such an evil policy will lead some people to absolutely refuse to pay their taxes. And I believe -- if my reading of history from America and around the world is correct -- that there are others who will be tempted to acts of violence.

"If the government of this country tramples the faith and values of its citizens, history will hold those in power responsible for the violent convulsions that follow." -- Randall Terry

Got that? If anti-choicers have to pay for something they don't like with their tax dollars, it's justification to wreak "horrific consequences" on the government—and, hey, he's not endorsing it or anything, but he totes thinks it could make some people turn to violence. He's just saying! Because he knows history and shit!

This is someone the resuscitation of whose career the Washington Post is evidently happily complicit.

And Christy Hardin Smith, who gets the hat tip, notes that the press release was announcing a press conference at the National Press Club, which means he "gets time at the National Press Club to spew his vile, violent venom," so they're obviously not alone.
