On with the theme of anti-choicers off their rockers, Randall Terry has reared his ugly head again, this time premiering two bizarre and yes, racist, YouTube videos aimed President Obama.

As a reminder, Randall Terry is the original founder of the anti-abortion organization Operation Rescue. His tactics, for which he's racked up over 40 arrests, can best be described as...crazy. A 2004 Washington Post article described some of his early activities:

In 1988, Terry and his legions started standing in front of local abortion clinics, screaming and pleading with pregnant women to turn away. They tossed their bodies against car doors to keep abortion patients from getting out. They waved crucifixes and screamed "Mommy, Mommy" at the women. When Terry commanded, hundreds went jellyfish-limp and blockaded the "death clinics."

As of late, Terry's been riled up about Obama's health care plan. The first video is a protest, staged on 7/26/09, involving baby dolls being dragged and whipped in front of the White House.




The second video is so strange I won't even try to describe it. At some point, it ties Obama and Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the KKK. Nuff said.

    Wow!! Bat Shit Crazy for sure! It is amazing how if someone can say something that has no merit or grounding in reality with enough "authority" in their voice--they can have a following. I am pretty damn sure that black women are not the majority of women who get abortions. I know from my Human Sexuality class at Texas Tech that Asian women have the highest percentage because of the culture view on sex. I know that White women are more likely then black women to have an abortion. It really pisses me off that they will raise hell when it comes to a fetus but when it comes to fighting for the rights of children, where are they? Do they care about our children's education? Do they care if our children our being abuse by a parent/or parents? Do they care about our children's future? safety? health?
    why aren't they rallying about the air we breath, water we drink, the food we put in our mouths?
    What about our growing numbers of children who have Autism or ADD? Thank you Shelby for pointing our the absurdity.
