Rush Limbaugh: Liberals Accept Men as Women, But Not Terrorists as Muslims

Liberals are perfectly happy to accept a man who "presents" as female as a woman and vice versa, but they won't admit a terrorist who "presents" as Muslim is indeed a Muslim, says talk radio host Rush Limbaugh.

Limbaugh was referring to liberals in government and media saying the attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend was because of Republican opposition to same-sex marriage and other issues rather than inspired by radical Islamists. Omar Mateen, whose shooting rampage left 49 dead and 53 injured, pledged allegiance to ISIS during the shooting.

The Obama administration has focused on calls to strengthen gun control laws in light of the shooting, while Republicans have said that would only prevent innocent people from defending themselves in such attacks.

"Men and women who want to present as opposite can tell Democrats that that's who they are, and there's no doubt whatsoever," Limbaugh said. "Somebody comes along and says, 'I'm a Muslim! I don't like you! I don't like the fact you're an infidel. I'm gonna blow up every institution of yours I can,' and, 'I'm not sure that we're dealing with Muslims,' the Democrats say. Isn't it amazing?"

Not only that, Limbaugh said, but when religion is blamed it is Christians who come under fire.

"Yes, Christians, whether they know it or not, threaten homosexuals," Limbaugh said. "Threaten! Heck, Christians threaten everybody, and that's why people are not themselves.  Christians are to blame for every aberration taking place in this country."
