Kentucky GOP Gov. Matt Bevin Speaks Out on Covington Catholic Controversy

"'There Are None So Intolerant as Those Who Preach Tolerance'"

From Fox News:

The governor of Kentucky, where the Catholic school students seen in the now-viral video are from, blasted the media and the left for their handling of the situation.

Gov. Matt Bevin (R) said he's tried not to weigh in to what he called the "drama" unfolding on television involving Trump-supporting pro-life students from Covington.

"The level of bigotry that was evident throughout this came from one side entirely," Bevin said, adding that prior to the shorter, edited clip that was first aired, the students were subjected to "incredibly vile and racist things."
