It is alarming that in the wake of the recent jewish center murders the media is on a tear to ban rightwing websites. Where was this outcry following the Boston bombings or Fort Hood? Where is the outcry over the origins of Planned Parenthood's mission? Why not point out the KKK was founded by democrats and originally as the bloody arm of the democratic party up through and including Senator Byrd?

    Interesting. Tell me, what do you make of these statements from her?

    “What hangs over the South is that the Negro has been in servitude. The white southerner is slow to forget this. His attitude is the archaic of this age. Supremacist thinking belongs in a museum.”
    “The big answer, as I see it, is the education of the white man. The white man is the problem. It is the same as with the Nazis. We must change the white attitudes. That is where it lies.”

    The KKK was FOUNDED by Democrats, that is true. However, the political affiliation of the group (though not its ideologies) changed after the Civil Rights movement. They became Republicans. Originally, the Democrats were the party of the Confederacy (deep south), while the Republicans were the party of the north. But that is no longer the case today. The parties have flipped their ideologies.

    Ask yourself this: between Republicans and Democrats, which of the two parties do CURRENT supporters of Confederate ideologies align themselves with TODAY? If you were to go to the deep south today, and you saw someone flying a Confederate flag, is that person more likely to be a Democrat or a Republican? You shouldn't need more than one guess...

    Here's the message from the front page of one of the main KKK websites. Does this sound like something a modern liberal would say?

    From the official KKK website:
    –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
    America, Our Nation is Under Judgement from God!
    "There is a race war against whites. But our people - my white brothers and sisters - will stay committed to a non-violent resolution. That resolution must consist of solidarity in white communities around the world. The hatred for our children and their future is growing and is being fueled every single day. Stay firm in your convictions. Keep loving your heritage and keep witnessing to others that there is a better way than a war torn, violent, wicked, socialist, new world order. That way is the Christian way - law and order - love of family - love of nation. These are the principles of western Christian civilization. There is a war to destroy these things. Pray that our people see the error of their ways and regain a sense of loyalty. Repent America! Be faithful my fellow believers."
    –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
    ~ National Director of The Knights, Pastor Thomas Robb

    Right, but between all the things people have to do, like having babies, inventing a new way to sequence DNA, having a new health problem, death in the family, etc, we can't count on most people to be on top of public policy issues.We have to except some of what you call "laziness" or "willful ignorance".

    It's not unreasonable to expect people to stay on top of current events. It's part of having a rational self interest. What happens in Washington sooner or later WILL affect everyone of us... being lazy or willfully ignorant will not change the consequences of choosing to ignore it.

    I'm glad someone's staying on top of it. I wish we had a better system b/c it's unreasonable to expect the majority to stay on top of it most the time.

    you are of course right with your conclusion. However, the manufactured outrage, if left to useless news organizations, we could all blow off by turning off. Problem is- when you have government administrations pushing agendas claiming the same outrage (Euda's post on education) now policy can be decided. and all those people out there ignoring the news pursuing their own happiness will look up one day and find out a law has passed. Once something is law it is almost impossible-to get rid of it. For example, in the other big news story of last week, because of manufactured outraged environmentalists pushed an agenda, the federal government has so many truly machivellian restrictions on private and public property as to run people off their land, destroy their businesses. but it all started with that manufactured outrage over a turtle here, a smelt there...in Colorado, because of the manufactured outrage over pesticides, whole beautiful conifer forests have died and lay in wait for massive forest fires which destroy lives and homes-let alone the natural beauty of an area. All because a noxious beetle is "natural" and pesticide is not. You like to hang out in the philosophy part of the debate and I appreciate that, but I also appreciate those who are vigilant on the day to day news seeing the trends and yes, sometimes getting caught up in drama that goes away in a week or two-but there's so much happening right under our noses. it's why I LOVE this site so much

    The bad thing about me not following the news is I don't know what's going on in the world. The good thing is I'm spared this manufactured outrage about rightwing websites.

    This sounds to me like a debate about murders motivated by inheritance/insurance money, by lovers issues, by political motivations, and by murders in the course of a robbery. This specifically takes political motivations and breaks it down by left, right, or religious extremism.

    IMHO this is pointless. It doesn't much matter if someone murders in a robbery or for political reasons, they need to be in jail with all the other murders.

    Michelle Malkin has covered these stories extensively over the years. Its sick that these folks would use the deaths of innocent people to try and further their agenda. Sick but not surprising.

    Mine is five: Margaret sanger
    "We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social services backgrounds, and engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the negro is through
    religious appeal. We don 't want the word to get out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten that idea out if it occurs to any of their more rebellious members."
