Who is Randall Terry

[FrankieBud]

Christian activist Randall Terry has reappeared in the news in recent days as the spokesman for the parents of Terri Schiavo. Terry, founder of the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue and the Society for Truth and Justice, appeared on Fox News at least four times in the past four days -- on the March 18 edition of Hannity & Colmes, and during live coverage of the Schiavo case on March 20 and March 21. But Terry has a controversial past that was not fully disclosed in any of his Fox News appearances or on the March 19 edition of National Public Radio's Weekend Edition, which aired a brief clip from Terry. In all but one of those instances, Terry was identified only as the Schindler family spokesman.

Karl Castle used the exact same phrase on a weekday morning edition of NPR's "Morning Edition".

6. Randall Terry is founder of

Operation Rescue, an anti-abortion group that is responsible for the deaths of several abortion providers.

He is divorced from his first wife, estranged from his gay son, and collecting donations from followers to pay the bill on his new mansion.

He is a terrorist, if you are into reproductive rights.

10. So, CNN = supports terrorists (AND terrorism)

When's the raid on Atlanta?

7. He's mugging for all it's worth!

And it's shameful that the family via MSM is giving this domestic terrorist any hint of credibility.

Then again, the MSN puts Jerry Falwell on as Crossfire host and invites him for comment on political issues, so I'm not surprised.
