POPSSettler defends West Bank murders Typical of the nutters that Israel prefers in the settlements and annoying the Palestinians, rather than living next door to "decent" Jews. Very easy to reverse the invasion reasons used by the Jews to allow the Palestinians to invade Israel. Harassment by missiles/rocks and bullets, a few killed or injured,

POPSStep it up Hannity Kevin's publicist contacted the Hannity producers for quid pro quo, and she submitted his latest blog regarding the reverse racism that he believes occurred in “Gates Gate.” The response from Hannity’s team was essentially that Kevin was fishing for racial controversy. Really?!

POPSFox Nation's Big, Big, BIG, Bigoted Article
DIGG COMMENTS: "wow they'll say anything" "Every time I read crazy bullshit like this, the phrase "grasping at straws" comes to mind." "It's downright scary how dumb these people are." --- I live in my own little sphere where such stupidity does not reign supreme. I stay away from Fox news, (if my remote button lands on it even for a second, I quickly push next to get the hell out of there, FAST). I don't view the backwardness of Fox viewers as scary (unless, they start donning white sheets and pointed hoods). But I do get angry that there is a media outlet that fuels ignorance and makes money doing so, to boot. The FoxTV/Right-wing talk charlatans use their follower’s shallowness to control this audience and what a sad lot they are. Always in a state of anger, believing some group is to blame for their hardships; when in reality it's the very right-wing political and religious belief system they’ve bought into that keeps them bound by their own ignorance. It's sad. thinkingblue

POPSAmerican Right-Wing a Bit Confused? This story was picked out of the International edition of the Jerusalem Post. It was spray panted and not burned - as per usual with folks in Georgia who used to use burning crosses. I guess they are not really that confused - the KKK always did have more in common with nazi's than anyone else. The most recent trend among righties is to use nazi language to attack those they think are marxists and reverse racists. I take it back - they are still confusing. One easy thing to understand is that they are hateful and driven by fear and hate of what they see in the mirror in the morning.

POPSThanks for ruining this day for me, Barack Many Hispanics have achieved greatness by simply being great in their fields. Race had nothing to do with their greatness. In the case of nominating Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, race and gender have almost everything to do with her appointment. I have no ill will towards Ms. Sotomayor, I just think it would have been in the country’s interest to appoint someone more deserving.

POPSMatthew Yglesias: Conservatives Against Being Against Racism And it’s not just a quirk of Beck’s. This attitude goes deep in the DNA of the modern conservative movement. National Review’s position on Civil Rights was that segregation was bad, but the cure of the civil rights movement was worse than the disease of white supremacy. Barry Goldwater campaigned for president on the proposition that Jim Crow might be bad, but not nearly so bad as the Civil Rights Act. As the policy status quo shifted, the precise nature of the conservative position changed with it so that now affirmative action is worse than discrimination against minorities and “political correctness” is worse than racism, but the basic spirit is the same.

POPSWeisburg's Racist Comments on Election
Author's propaganda tries to turn tables on realities. Despicable barely describes this hateful diatribe. Not in criticizing Reps.,McCain,etc. That's part of the game. I refer to his conclusions. Hopefully we can see through this kind of distortion no matter where we stand politically. If he felt confident in Obama's record he wouldn't need to even go where he does here. It seems that the concept, the equation, coming clear in this time, as we hopefully progress past true racism and the hurt it does to good people, is that, as blatant, actual racism lessens and becomes ever less an immediately impacting harm , less of a component of thought and feeling in our society, there seems to be, hopefully only temporarily, a corresponding yet negatively driven counter-trend of some sort. which insists that, there be a reverse racism taken for granted in order to prove the non-existence of the old, shameful racism.. Speaking for myself, I had, earlier this year, felt most favorable about
