Video: Randall Terry Meets 'Richard Cranium'
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyOperation Rescue founder Randall Terry is all over the news now because of his heinous statement on the murder of Dr. George Tiller:George Tiller was a mass-murderer.

Caleb Howe and I spent most of the day being lost, late, or looking for parking.We went to the media party at Elitch Gardens, an amusement park, but didn't see anyone we recognized. I don't like rollercoasters or other barf-inducers, so aside from hanging out with AOL people, it was kind of a disappointment.But then, on our way to the car, we saw this guy yelling into a megaphone, asking us to do a story about surviving fetuses. See, he knew that we were journalists trying to have a nice time, and thought he'd play editor.I ...
