The murder of Doctor Tiller, as misguided as he was, can never be condoned. But neither can the hateful, dishonest tactics of the far left.

The liberal outcry over the murder of Kansas late-term abortion doctor George Tiller demonstrates exactly where American discourse is going. Shot dead in a church by an anti-government militant, Tiller did not deserve his fate. Even though the man destroyed an estimated 60,000 fetuses that could have lived outside the womb, he was an American citizen entitled to protection.

Child rapist sentenced to just one year in jail
Friday, May 29: "Earls has two felony convictions," said Geraldo Rivera. "He is a total creep, but the judge insisted that the [victim] had to go into open court to testify, so the prosecution negotiated a plea bargain instead." The Factor condemned Judge Thomas Bartheld as the villain in this case: "You don't put a five-year-old in the court with the person who raped them. This judge should be thrown off the bench immediately. Judge, you should resign right now!"
