Why I left the Far-Right: Exhibit R for Racism

This popped into my Inbox from a friend…

I politely informed him that I did not think that it was funny.

Check out the racism imagery and how it is said that Joe Biden will become President.

But the Far-right says, “Oh, we’re not racist!”

Right……………….. 🙄

Watch:

Again, let me be clear. I DID NOT CREATE THIS, IT CAME FROM MY E-MAIL INBOX AND I WANTED TO EXPOSE IT!

I believe that Conservatives should STAND UP and condemn this sort of idiotic nonsense.

Why I left the Far-Right: Exhibit R for Racism and L for Lies

Here is another reason why I basically decided to part ways with the Neo-Conservative, Far-Right in the Blogosphere — Which included me leaving the Conservative Hive on BlogAds.

It seems that some writer over at John Hawkings’s Right Wing News Blog, which is a strict Neo-Conservative Blog, has posted a entry rife full of lies and outright racism towards Arabs in Detroit.

First, the racism:

Just as no good deed goes unpunished, no act of evil remains unrewarded for long — much less a whole career of evil that reached its crescendo with a denunciation of Jews so tasteless that not even the liberal establishment media could stomach it. This is why the Muslim colonists populating Dearbornistan are erecting a statue of Helen Thomas.

Did you get that? “Dearbornistan.” That is what your Far-Right in this Country is come to; outright racism and bigotry towards Arabs. Dearbornistan is a racist play on words for the city of Dearborn, Michigan. Which is populated by Arabs. The good majority of which are peace-loving Muslims and yes, some Christian Arabs as well. But, that is no matter to those on the far-right; they are ate up with bigotry and hatred towards the Arabs in this Country. Mainly because of 9/11. My question to them is this; do two wrongs make a right? I think not. Could you imagine if someone referred to an area of America, that was heavily populated by Jews in the same manner as this? The outrage would be absolutely deafening.

Not being satisfied with just being a racist bigot, this guy is also a liar as well, check out this little nugget of B.S.:

I’d be surprised if taxes aren’t making up most of the difference. No problem, Michigan is flush with cash these days.

Nowhere at all in this story, which is about Helen Thomas getting statue of her likeness in a Arab Museum; does it say a thing about Helen Thomas’s statue being paid for by U.S. Tax dollars, nowhere. But that does not stop these far-right, Neo-Conservative bigots from spreading lies like this. Because, you see, it is all about their bigoted little narrative, that ALL Arabs are terrorists, and that they are out to kill all Americans and so forth.

Do not misunderstand me here, I do not not, nor will I ever side with the socialist left in this Country. But I will be damned if I ever side with a bunch of far-right bigots either! This is the reason why I personally believe that the Republican Party is going to get it’s ASS handed to it in the primaries and in 2012. The American people, like me, just do not have any tolerance for bigotry and racism —– towards ANY race at all. This is why I voted libertarian in the 2008 election. One because I thought Sarah Palin was an idiot, and still do; two because of this sort of idiotic racist bigotry that exists in the Conservative circles. It is wrong, it should be flushed out and exposed for what it really is.

I mean, these guys are acting like the Jim Crow racist Democrats of the south prior to 1964. It is truly unreal.

Let me also say this; this sort of crap right here, is why I basically parted ways with the more Paleo-Conservative circles in the past. Because I just do not have any tolerance for this sort of nuanced bigotry and racism, and now here it is being found in the more main-stream, Neo-Conservative circles. If William F. Buckley was alive he would be fit to be tied for idiotic nonsense like this. Using 9/11 as a license to act like Klan members; it is truly unbelievable.

Sickening: Video shows local deputy ranting against Christians

The Video:

Greg Hengler over at Townhall says:

Substitute these Christians with Mexican protesters and replace the anti-Christian opinions from the Sheriff’s Deputy with anti-Mexican ones. Would you not see this clip run for the umpteenth time on MSNBC and CNN today? I repeat the sentiments of our Commander in Chief: “The police acted stupidly.

The Story via KRQE-TV:

ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) – A Bernalillo County Sheriff’s deputy was caught on video erupting with personal comments while escorting a religious group away from a recent concert.

BCSO Deputy Jim Goff is a veteran of the department and years away from retirement.

The religious group was protesting outside a Rob Zombie concert on July 17th at the Pavilion. Deputies were called to escort them out. Goff was among them.

The religious group recorded the entire ordeal and put it on YouTube. It started with Goff asking the protestors to leave the property but the group was not taking the orders well.

“This is private property, leave you can go or you can go to jail,” Goff said.

“It’s against my constitutional right, these people are free right here are fee to be out here? Why cant we,” said one protestor.

That’s when Goff got the crowd involved and asked what they wanted the group to do.

“You guys, do you want them to stay or go,” Goff said.

The protestors eventually started to leave as they continued preaching to the crowd and the deputies. Goff responded.

“There is only one way to heaven and that’s through Jesus Christ the Lord,” said a protestor.

“I am a non-believer, there is no God, there is no Jesus, there is no Satan,” Goff said.

Through all the shouting, arguing and antagonizing the other deputies kept their cool. Goff, however, had one more questionable comment.

“You must have a crush on me, man are you like a gay homosexual, you keep filming me,” Goff said.

The attacks against Christians and on the first amendment in the United States of America continue under the Obama Administration. Further proof that we are truly in the last days. Remember that folks. Remember that also come 2010 and 2012 and vote accordingly.

But, of course:

Sheriff Manny Gonzales called the deputy’s comments very inappropriate.

“I watched the video and it’s an edited version. We’re going to make a request from our internal affairs unit to get a full, a full copy so we can make the right responses,” Gonzales said.

The video is on at least three different websites including YouTube, where more than 7,000 viewers have already seen it.

Gonzales said he will not comment on if Goff will be reprimanded until they conduct a complete investigation.

The sheriff also said he did not know about the concert confrontation until News 13 called and asked about it.

In other words, he will be back to work today and nothing will happen. 😡

The Psychotic ramblings of Andrew Sullivan about Sarah Palin

The man is just plain crazy. Now why do I say this? This is why:

Because the people that were on that thing called the Journalist, decided that they would show some morals and NOT touch the Palin Trig false rumor:

Ezra Klein:

Seriously, folks? Best case scenario, what’s your outcome here: Her daughter, hounded by the tabloids, breaks down that it was her child, and her mother heroically took on the burden and welcomed the disabled boy as one of her own? Palin’s relationship with her children — however they may have come to her — strikes me as pretty far out of bounds. By all accounts she’s a wonderful mother, and devoted to her fifth son. Leave this be.

Katha Pollitt:

I like what you said about this possibly being a dirty trick, intended to blow up in our faces. so let’s just leave it alone…

Unlike Andrew Sullivan; these liberals actually had some morals, once again our favorite Faux Conservative  descends into madness:

Remember all those liberals and lefties huffily denouncing this blog’s attempts to make sense of Sarah Palin’s bizarre stories about the pregnancy and birth of her alleged fifth child? I was nuts, crazy, vile, disgusting, etc etc to indulge in what Dave Weigel, with no working knowledge of the story, calls “nonsense.” You may also recall that the liberal media didn’t touch this with a barge-pole  – and still hasn’t (apart from a NYT puff-piece that I found utterly credulous at the time). Newsweek has even put its entire reputation behind the details of the story as outlined in Going Rogue, without doing any independent reporting on the subject.

Well, we now know, that, for some at least, I wasn’t crazy. I was just not disciplined enough to curtail what this blog airs in order to conform with what many Journo-listers believed were the interests of the Obama campaign. Any delusions that Journo-List was not, in part, a collusory venture to shape the media narrative in ways to benefit Obama, above and beyond ferreting out the truth about any and all candidates, must now be abandoned. Ezra Klein has already been caught in a bald-faced lie about his discretion in picking members; and the notion that this was simply a water-cooler collection of journalistic thoughts is also belied by the emails now published by the Daily Caller.

One should say this, however: I have no way of knowing what the DC has omitted, and how it has shaped this information. The thread stops rather abruptly. Maybe there is context that adds to what we know. I do not trust in any way the ethics of the Daily Caller. Nonetheless, I was obviously not alone in those August days, when I was pilloried for saying out loud what the entire chattering class was saying in private.

[..]

If you want to know why the allegedly liberal media didn’t touch – and still won’t touch – this story, look no further. It has nothing to do with the facts, and everything to do with their politics. Notice the core modus operandi of the political operative, not the journalist. When dealing with a story: first ask yourself not if it is true but whether the outcome benefits your side. Second, write things in defense of this that you cannot possibly know. Palin a “wonderful mother”? How on earth did Klein know that?

[…]

This is your liberal media, ladies and gentlemen: totally partisan, interested in the truth only if it advances their agenda, and devoid of any balls whatsoever. And people wonder how this farce of a candidate now controls one major political party and could well be our next president. One reason is that we do not have a functioning adversarial media uncorrupted by partisan loyalty and tactics.

The man is totally insane. That is correct; I happen to believe that Andrew Sullivan is mentally unstable, should be considered a security risk and deported from the United States of American immediately back to Great Britain; where he can get the care he needs from the British nationalized heath-care system —– If that is even possible.

The reason why the Liberal media did not run with this story, is because there was not an ounce of truth to it. Because the is such a thing as journalistic standards. You simply do not report something that you cannot prove. You would think that Sullivan and his years of college education would have taught him that. However, I believe that this is a sign of something more deep. I believe it is sign that the man has an inbred hatred of Conservative Christians and more specifically women in general. I really wonder if the man was sexually abused as a child by a female family member of his or something. (His Mom?) Because this man’s unrelenting stalking and obsessing of Sarah Palin has been quite a disturbing things to watch, especially this long after the election.

Of course, we all know that Andrew Sullivan was already busted on drug charges for trying to buy pot, and should have been deported then. But because the man has connections, he was able to beat the deportation charge and is still in the Country. That, in itself, is a story there. However,  because Sullivan is well-connected within the liberal media, they would not touch the story. I believe this would be a good time for the liberal media to do its job, when it comes to Andrew Sullivan. However, Because I know that Andrew Sullivan is among the liberal elite, he will, as always, avoid the scrutiny that was placed upon Sarah Palin and the John McCain campaign.

Such a twisted world we live in.

Jeffery Lord should not be allowed to write for anyone ever again

For writing absolutely asinine crap like this here. I agree with Charles Johnson, this story is just outright racist, wrong, and should be pulled.

Hell even Reason doesn’t like it, and when Reason says, “Whoa, wait a minute!”, then something is horribly wrong.

Not to mention AmSpec’s own people:

John Tobin writes in The American Spectator:

What on Earth is Jeffrey Lord talking about on the mainpage? He says that the sentence “Claude Screws lynched a black man” is untrue. Lynching is defined as an extrajudicial killing by a mob (which can be as few as two people). The fatal beating of Bobby Hall most certainly qualifies.

Philip Klein writes in The American Spectator:

I am rendered speechless by a 4,000-word article that is based around the suggestion that somebody is a liar for saying that a black man was lynched, when he was merely beaten to death by a white sheriff who evidence suggests had previously threatened to “get him.”

Here is hoping that AmSpec does the right thing and yanks this, now….

Hablando de pendejos!

There’s this guy:

Hablando de pendejos!

Director Oliver Stone belittled the Holocaust during a shocking interview with the Sunday Times today, claiming that America’s focus on the Jewish massacre was a product of the “Jewish domination of the media.”

The director also defended Hitler and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and railed against the “powerful lobby” of Jews in America.

Stone said that his upcoming Showtime documentary series “Secret History of America,” seeks to put Hitler and Communist dictator Joseph Stalin “in context.”

“Hitler was a Frankenstein but there was also a Dr Frankenstein. German industrialists, the Americans and the British. He had a lot of support,” Stone told reporter Camilla Long during the interview, which can be found behind the paywall on the Sunday Times’ website.

Hitler in context. I just….wow. I have no words on this one. I really don’t. I’m just gobsmacked. I was not aware that Pat Buchanan was hard up for help. 😯

Now this here is the nonsense that I will not side with at all

As you all know, I did have a bit of fit over what I thought was the internet lynching of a black woman by a far-right wing propagandist.  I did also walk my statement back, as I did not want people believing that I had become a liberal. I haven’t. I just will not side with racism and stupidity; and I will never, ever, condone hate at all.

I was over reading a blog, that has become the scourge of the far-right; mainly because he saw things for what they were on the right. Please, keep in mind. I do not agree with with everything that this guy writes. But there are just times when the man makes sense and when he does, I tend to agree with him. (Is that even allowed?!?! :shock:)

Anyhow, here is is three examples of some of the stupidity and utter crap on the far right, that you will not catch this blogger writing about or even supporting:

First up, posting half truths:

Seems that Blogger Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs caught one of the all-stars of the far right fudging the truth a bit, I will let Charles pick it up from here:

What I was wondering as I read this clumsy opening: why First Things hired such a witless hack as a “writer,” and what kind of ludicrous, easily debunked “link” he was going to dredge up from his feverish imagination. So I read on, got to the end, and … where the hell was the “link?”

Hoft never gets around to covering that little detail. Instead, he links to a couple of far right blogs (ranting about “reparations,” of course) that mention in passing that in the 1960s, Sherrod’s husband was a member of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. So I read on through the muck, looking for the link to Ayers.

I should have known better than to think there would be an actual “link” in there somewhere.

It turns out that in Hoft’s bizarre world of blind hatred, Sherrod’s husband’s membership in the SNCC is the link, because Bill Ayers was also in the SNCC. Yes, that’s it. That’s the link. I hope you were sitting down for that bombshell revelation.

Earlier the same day, Hoft was claiming that NAACP CEO Ben Jealous was at the meeting where Shirley Sherrod gave her now-famous speech. It’s completely untrue, but Hoft never posted a correction, of course.

Which is, of course, the entire guilt by association thing. Which Mr. Johnson did himself with Pamela Geller; he also retracted it later. I find it very interesting that those who ballyhooed Johnson for that whole incident with Pamela Geller; do the same very thing themselves. It is, of course, a form of collectivism.  Which, I thought, liberals were known to do; not Conservatives. Hmmm.. Maybe the Paleo-Conservatives are right. That Neo-Conservatives are just Democrat lite people. As they do seem to employ the same tactics as the left.

Another example is the ever increasing rise in Anti-Muslim Bigotry in this Country. Charles Johnson notes:

Anti-Muslim bloggers Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller used to frequently cite stories about radical Islamists forwarded to them by Jeffrey Imm; you’ll find hundreds of posts at their sites that refer to Mr. Imm.

Well, their increasingly open bigotry and their outrageously paranoid, un-American group “Stop the Islamization of America” have caused Jeffrey Imm to reevaluate what Spencer and Geller stand for — and he doesn’t like what he sees.

From the Website RealCourage.org:

While the American SIOA movement seeks to be portrayed in the media as merely “conservative,” the SIOA supporters have recently called for the “criminalization of Islam,” as well as promoting the “Burn A Koran Day.” The SIOA Facebook website is replete with vulgar and obscene images and cartoons of calls for nuclear bombs on Mecca, urination on the Qur’an, and most vulgar images possible of Muhammad. SIOA supporters have called for violence and promote hatred. SIOA supporters have made vulgar and obscene comments against specific Muslims, which the SIOA supporters defend tolerating as their defense of “free expression.”

On Sunday, July 18, 2010, SIOA Executive Director Pamela Geller made yet another appeal for support for the violent extremist group “English Defence League” (EDL) which has been involved in multiple riots, and whose members were recently arrested after throwing bricks at riot police officers during their protest of a potential mosque in Dudley (that had already been canceled.) One of the SIOA supporters has darkly claimed that a group like the violent “English Defence League” is being created in America today!

The transatlantic effort of “Islamophobia united” is only bringing an organized effort to channel and fan the flames of hate and violence that Europe has been seeing against mosques and Muslims here now to America.

Islamophobia United: Stop Islamization of Europe (SIOE) – right and Stop Islamization of America – left – Unite in Protest against Park Place Mosque in NYC

A Voice of Reason from a Muslim for Freedom and Democracy

Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, leader of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, is a conservative activist that seeks to challenge the extreme views of “political Islam.”   Dr. Jasser believes that a patriotic, pro-America approach to challenging religious extremism is essential.

Dr. Jasser disagreed with Imam Rauf over the style and the form of the planned Park Place mosque in Manhattan, and wrote an article on this for the New York Post.   Sadly and ironically, some of the web readers of the NY Post column used the “reader comments” part of the column to call for bombing the mosque and killing Muslims.

While I have nothing but contempt for those who would want to commit acts of terrorism in this Country. I have even more contempt for those who would use terrorism, performed in the name of Allah; as a platform to promote Hatred against Muslims and Arabs. That is what these people are doing. Essentially these two are basically committing collectivism;  as in stirring up hatred and fear of ALL Muslims and Arabs and convincing Americans that ALL Arabs and Muslims are terrorists, and that my friends, I am afraid, is just morally wrong. Not to mention, it is not even remotely a Conservative trait. But rather a liberal one; and the real sick part is, it is the same collectivist mindset of the Jim Crow racists of the South, prior to 1964.

The last and final one, is just straight up racism. This is a statement from a James Edwards, who hosts a White Nationalist Radio program called the “Political Cesspool”, he  writes the following: (H/T LGF)

Of course the Tea Party is racist, crowed a blog post on the Council of Conservative Citizens website yesterday — and it would be proud of its racism if it weren’t wussy.

The post was written by James Edwards, a radio show host and author of Racism Schmacism. His website, the Political Cesspool, declares as its motto: “Conservatism is dead. Liberalism has no answers. What comes next? The rise of ethnopolitics.”

After the NAACP passed a recent resolution condemning the Tea Party as a bunch of bigots, the ragtag band of would-be American revolutionaries launched into denials. That’s because they’re week-kneed, lily-livered racists whose instinct is to “bend over and grab their ankles”, wrote Edwards, who suggested they connect with their inner-cackling villains:

“Instead of replying with a loud BWAHAHAHA! or a ‘Yeah? What’s your point?’ or ‘So what?’ or ‘Of course we’re racists – we’re white people. That’s what “racist” means’ or ‘Can any of you race hustlers even spell “racist”?’ The Tea Party predictably went into their usual bend over and grab their ankles mode. They protested that oh no, we’re not racists at all, we don’t tolerate racists at our rallies which are really huge rainbow coalitions.”

Edwards is right. The Tea Party is hiding the truth about itself: Racist groups are quietly welcomed at its starchy street fairs, even right here in Florida.

Last January, a state chapter of the Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC) set up shop at a Tea Party rally in Invernness, Citrus County. Senate candidate and Tea-Party darling Marco Rubio headlined the event, while the CCC handed out pamphlets and swag.

They wrote a proud blog entry about it: “Florida CofCC works crowd at TEA party.” The Anti-Defamation League warned of the group’s attendance a day ahead of time.

Here’s Edward’s Entire posting:

Oh, man…if only they had read my book! Racism, Schmacism. All of this unpleasantness could’ve been avoided. This thing is such a mess I don’t even know where to start, and it’s pathetic and hilarious at the same time. I wanted to write about it last week, but I was just swamped, and now things have gotten even crazier with the whole NAACP/Tea Party brouhaha, so I might as well go for it.

Well, let’s just start at the beginning. Last week, the NAACP passed a resolution condemning the “racism” of the Tea Party movement, and demanding that the movement purge itself of those hideous “racists” in their grass roots movement. Yes, the very same mental midgets who just a few weeks ago were condemning a Hallmark greeting card with an outer space theme because they think “black holes” means “black hos”, an organization which is explicitly organized for the exclusive benefit of one race of people, and whose name contains the words “Colored People”, actually had the gall to pass this resolution.

This was a great opportunity for the Tea Party movement to show some backbone by laughing in the face of the imbeciles at the NAACP. But did they? Of course not. Predictably, they responded in the same tired, pusillanimous manner with which they always respond to these never ending accusations. Instead of replying with a loud BWAHAHAHA! or a “Yeah? What’s your point?” or “So what?” or “Of course we’re racists -we’re white people.

That’s what “racist” means or “Can any of you race hustlers even spell “racist”?”, they predictably went into their usual bend over and grab their ankles mode. They protested that oh no, we’re not racists at all, we don’t tolerate racists at our rallies which are really huge rainbow coalitions, and it’s the NAACP and the liberals who are the real racists, etc., etc. You know, the lame “Bull Connor was a Democrat!” defense. It never works, but they just keep trotting it out like some lucky charm in the vain hope that this time it will work.

Racist means white person. Period. Until the Tea Partiers get that through their heads, nothing’s going to change, and they’re never going to be an effective political force. They really, really need to read Racism, Schmacism.

The reason why I mention this, is because Jim Hoft, whom I mentioned above, has linked to the Council of Conservative Citizens website. This group, for what it is worth, was called at one point, “The White Council” and was believed to be responsible for the murder of four civil rights workers in Mississippi.  Anyhow, when I brought this up, Hoft moved the link to the posting previous to that one. I noticed it and brought it up; he choose to do nothing. So, that tells me, that Hoft just does not care, because with him, it is all about “the cause…”

Now, let me end this by saying this: I am all for being against Socialism. I am all for being against big Government, I am all for being against Identity Politics, I am all for being against Terrorism and Islamic fascism and Muslim Intolerance; which really is just another form of hate. But, what I am NOT for, is combating Hate…with Hate. That my friends, is what these people are doing. Quite honestly, if these is all what there is,to being a Republican or someone of the right. Then, by all means, count me the hell out. I really am not one to hate, based upon race, color, creed and yes, even religion.

If the right does not change that image, which I just described above; they are going to have an image problem for a LONG time to come.

UPDATED: Another Facebook Hate Page Discovered Hatemonger who made graphics ID’ed.

It appears that another hate group is using facebook to promote hatred.

This time it is of Jews.

The group is deceptively called “Christians Against the New World Order

The reason I call it a hate group, is because of pictures like this:

Actually, it was the Romans. But I digress. 😛

and this:

and even more disgusting:

===

My friends, that is not Conservatism, that not even Christian. This above is nothing more than straight up hatred.

If you would go to the page and scroll down to the “Report Page” link and click on it; and select hate speech.

That stuff is just flat out wrong; just I would feel that branding ALL Arabs as terrorists, I feel that making hateful statements or using imagery of this sort is just flat out wrong. Besides, Israel did 9/11?!?!? Now that is totally insane.  I would call this far-right wing stupidity. But, I tend to this these crazies are beyond right wing.

Update: The person that made those awful graphics is none other than Jennifer Grey. She strikes me as your a-typical Ron Paul type or Paleo-Conservative. If you like, go to her profile and report her and select Hate Speech. The last photo was made by someone calling themselves Christian Chivalry. I would report that person as well.
