When will Republicans be held accountable for their rhetoric?
Stop the lies against Planned Parenthood (Opinion) - CNN.com
According to CNN, the man who allegedly launched an armed assault at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado reportedly talked about "baby parts" to police. This appears to be a direct reference to a series of heavily edited videos used by anti-abortion extremists to suggest that Planned Parenthood profits off fetal tissue donation. This is a lie.
But right wing ideologues have continued to spread this lie despite the fact that the man who presumably believed in this falsehood went so far as to kill three people at the clinic. Shockingly, in the wake of the shooting, several Republican presidential candidates repeated the smear against Planned Parenthood.
A crazy guy caused the killings.
Blaming some aspect of his ramblings on recent events is flawed reasoning. Was Jody Foster responsible for the guy who shot President Reagan? Of course not.
