HuffPo Attacks Family Research Council As 'Hate Group' Less Than Three Hours After Shooting

Even after the shooting of a security guard at the Family Research Council, the Huffington Post can’t stop slamming the pro-family organization as a “hate group.” The Huffington Post waited less than three hours before publishing an article which complained about “the Family Research Council, which the Southern Poverty Law Center deems a hate group.”

Contributor Waymon Hudson, in an August 15 article titled “Paul Ryan: Poster Boy of Today’s Extreme GOP,” posted an attack on Republican Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan which slammed the Family Research Council on 1:36 PM – less than three hours after the shooting, which took place around 10:45 AM. Attacking Ryan as an extremist, Hudson complained that Ryan “has agreed to address the Family Research Council, which the Southern Poverty Law Center deems a hate group, at the organizations annual Voters Value Summit in September.”

The Huffington Post’s job is to spin the news for all kinds of left-wing causes – attacks on the Family Research Council are normal for them. But couldn’t they at least have waited a day before repeating the charge of the left-wing hacks at the Southern Poverty Law Center and attacking a group whose members were targeted by a gunman less than three hours earlier?

At the Huffington Post, the campaign against conservative hate groups doesn’t stop even less than three hours after conservative “hate groups” are physically attacked.

I have it from a reliable and trusted anonymous source that the TLI Research Group has uncovered irrefutable proof that the SPLC is actually a underground child porn ring that distributes through hidden files in it’s “reports.”

Send a “donation” to SPLC and they mail you a DVD with some “reports” on it.

To date the HufPo has not denied such “donations.”

That could make them felons you know...

Everyone’s out of step except them. What a farce.

Liberalism truly is a mental disorder

"Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center are the WORST of the WORST who PREY on STUPID PEOPLE!!"

There is a sad irony here: the SPLC, with its constant demonization of the FRC as a vicious "hate group" (largely because the FRC opposes gay marriage- something that SPLC's uber-wealthy, paranoid donors support) did more to inspire this political shooting than anything that Palin, the Tea Party, etc. ever could be remotely dreamed of inspiring...
