For the last few days the left-wing media has been losing its tiny collective mind over the death of Zimbabwe’s Cecil the lion. Well, today the liberal Washington-based political newspaper The Hill published a story breathlessly informing the world that the man who shot the lion donated to Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign. And then, in a perfect example of media bias, the left-wing newspaper Tweeted a photo of the dead lion next to an image of Romney!
This is little else but the yellowest of yellow journalism. What does Romney have to do with the death of Cecil the lion? Nothing. But for some reason The Hill wants to link the death of the beloved lion to Romney!
Here is the Tweet that the far left, non-journalists at The Hill sent out on Wednesday:
JUST IN: Cecil the lion killer #WalterPalmer donated to Romney: http://t.co/LTgN39sjbR pic.twitter.com/mBWrl4w2QP

In the story The Hill traced the political donations of the hunter who killed Cecil as if his giving money to a few Republicans was somehow consequential information that enhances the story driving the left to lament over the death of this lion.
So, where are the stories from The Hill and writer Kevin Cirilli about murderer Cecile Richards of Planned Parenthood donating to Obama and Hillary? I think if I were a politician I’d rather have a hunter’s donations than the donations of a woman who is personally responsible for the murders of millions of minority babies!
Still, the political donations of this hunter have no part in this story. It is a meaningless factoid that has no bearing on the tale.
But it does serve the far left’s narrative of “Democrats gooooooood” and “Republicans baaaaaad.”
This The Hill story is not news. It is little else but an attempt boost liberal politics. If liberals knew what the meaning of “shame” was, writer Kevin Cirilli and his newspaper would feel shame for this BS.
Now, as to the subject of the story, I really don’t much care. I suppose it is evident that the lion in question shouldn’t have been killed and that something went horribly wrong with the hunting arrangements.
But even as there are now three videos showing that Planned Parenthood is murdering babies in order to make millions selling the organs and tissues of these dead human beings yet the left-media is all wee-weed up over some damn dead lion, well that just shows how uncaring, inhuman, and immoral liberals really are.
If you are more upset about some lion in a far off African nation than you are about the death of millions of humans–and minorities at that–then you are an immoral reprobate.
