Just fucking no

Ted Cruz said yesterday, while campaigning in Iowa, that the Planned Parenthood shooter in Colorado Springs was a "...transgendered [sic] leftist activist."  His campaign later clarified his declaration as Cruz just making the point that there was a lot of information that hadn't been confirmed concerning the shooter.

No.  Just fucking no.

This has become a strategic m.o. for the republican party--they put out some completely bogus claim to deflect attention from the fact that their party is completely batshit insane knowing full well that there are plenty of gullible buffoons in their base who will wholeheartedly believe it and blame the "liberal media" bias for the reason the "real" story isn't gaining any credence.  It's manipulative, demagogic, and dishonest and we need to call them out on it in the loudest voice possible until they crawl back under the rock from which they came.

The promise that is America cannot be fulfilled when republicans are using sleight of hand to stoke hatred and fear in too many people over problems that really aren't the problems Americans need to be addressing.

Enough is enough.

Peace,
