GOOD SUPREMACIST BAD SUPREMACIST
As I mentioned in my previous post about Kevin McCullough of Townhall, at least these people are starting to “Get it” about what is going on in the world. Since that time, evidently Pat Buchanan has finally ‘stepped in it’ with his American Conservative hit on Rudy Giuliani.
Little Green Footballs is so far behind the curve on this story, and now begs for us to ‘take it with a grain of salt’. They still can’t believe it evidently. One of these days they are going to wake up and discover that their beloved Washington Times editor Francis Combs is a white supremacist with ties to that same neo-Nazi leader, Bill Wright. They’re also going to be forced to admit that they’ve been conned by Sun Myung Moon who owns the WTimes and is manipulating the whole conservative movement in the US.
Flopping Aces has been fairly up on things and is now calling a spade a spade (sorry for the pun).
Let’s also face the fact that I think these people (not Flopping Aces) are nuts with selective approval. We are linked to a 5 year old Horowitz Front Page piece about Buchanan’s little associates. WAIT A MINUTE so these people – our dear conservatives, have known all along who they were dealing with and obviously didn’t give a damn until people started noticing just who they were. Kudos to Curt at Flopping Aces for finally getting it!
David Horowitz wrote (2002) in Front Page:
“…The more recent article about the Wichita events originally appeared on the website of American Renaissance, a white racialist group founded by Jared Taylor. Reposting it from this site seemed to require some explanation. In the commentary I wrote to accompany our feature, I described Taylor as “a man who has surrendered to the multicultural miasma that has overtaken this nation and is busily building a movement devoted to white identity and community,” agendas we “did not share.” I further explained:
What I mean by "surrendering" is that Taylor has accepted the idea that the multiculturalists have won. We are all prisoners of identity politics now. If there is going to be Black History Month and Chicano Studies then there should be White History Month and White Studies. If blacks and Mexicans are going to regard each other as brothers and the rest of us as "Anglos," then whites should regard each other as brothers and others as-well, ... others.
Within the multicultural framework set by the dominant liberalism in our civic culture, Taylor's claim to a white place at the diversity table certainly makes sense. But there is another option and that is getting rid of the table altogether and going back to the good old American ideal of E Pluribus Unum-"out of many one." Not just blacks and whites and Chicanos, but Americans.
In the current issue of American Renaissance Jared Taylor replies to these comments and raises the fundamental question of whether America is or should be a multi-ethnic, multi-racial society, or whether it was conceived and should be preserved “as a self-consciously European, majority-white Nation.” Among literate conservatives, Jared Taylor is the most blunt in expressing this vision, but it is a theme of others who might be called “Euro-racialists.” (This is a bastardized and somewhat incoherent coinage, but one that adequately describes a bastardized and somewhat incoherent perspective).
Prominent among the articulators of Euro-racialism are Peter Brimelow who writes for the website Vdare, and Pat Buchanan whose best-selling book The Death of the West articulates its most familiar version. If Buchanan’s last electoral run is any indication, Euro-racialism is a still a fringe prejudice among conservatives. But if it were to emerge as the view of conservatives themselves, it would in my view mean the death of the conservative movement. Since I consider the conservative movement the last bulwark in the defense of America and the West, it would ironically also fulfill the prophecy in the title of Buchanan’s book….”

My question: Why has the right allowed Michelle Malkin to get away with her association with Vdare associates? Why does Malkin get a pass? Why do conservatives still accept the Washington Times? Why is it as long as the issue is about immigration the Right accepts Hate? Want to know more? Dave at Oricus has been dealing with these people for years. Also, get to know the SPLC. Yes, they are liberal, but they are more HONEST THAN ANY CONSERVATIVE I've found to date!
THE CRACK-UP OF THE RIGHT CONTINUES
Let’s face it, this has reached the point where it is just plain old, down right laughable. I’ve been waiting for the far right to marginalize themselves, but now it looks like two of the top mavens in far right conservative whoredom (sorry, it was just too good) are doing it themselves. First comes Ann Coulter. This week she pans “Christian” Mike Huckabee. Guess he doesn’t go around telling us he’s “born again” the way she does.
“…Despite the overwhelming popular demand for another column on Ron Radosh's review of Stan Evans' book, this week's column will address the urgent matter of evangelical Christians getting blamed for Mike Huckabee. To paraphrase the Jews, this is "bad for the evangelicals."…”
No Ann, he’s not bad for evangelicals, he bad for far right extreme non REPUBLICAN conservatives like you who are now completely marginalized. Next comes Peggy Noonan. Someone needs to put this woman out of our misery! Today in the WSJ she writes of Huckabee: “…Mr. Huckabee reminds me of two governors who became president, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. Like Mr. Clinton, he is a natural, charming, bright and friendly. Yet one senses something unsavory there, something not so nice. Like Mr. Bush, his approach to politics seems, at bottom, highly emotional, marked by great spurts of feeling and mighty declarations as to what the Lord wants. The problem with this, and with Bushian compassionate conservatism, which seems to have an echo in Mr. Huckabee's Christianism, is that to the extent it is a philosophy, it is not a philosophy that allows debate. Because it comes down to "This is what God wants." This is not an opener of discussion but a squelcher of it. It doesn't expand the process, it frustrates it.
Mr. Huckabee is clever. He puts forth his policies, such as they are, based on a faith-based understanding of public policy, and if you disagree with his policies, or take a hard shot at them, or at him, he suggests the reason is that you look down on evangelicals. This creates a new fissure in a party already riven by fissures. He has been accused by some in the conservative press of tearing the party apart, but it was being torn apart before he got on the scene. His rise is not a cause of collapse but an expression of it.
He plays the victim well. Others want to "trip him up," but he'll "get my message out there." His foes are "Wall Street-Washington" insiders, elitists. On the "Today" show he said his critics are the type who never liked evangelical Christians. When one of them runs, these establishment types say " 'Oh my gosh, now they're serious, they don't want to just show up and vote, they actually would want to be part of the discussion and really talk about issues that include hunger and poverty and things.' "
This is a form of populist manipulation. Evangelical Christians have been strong in the Republican Party since the 1970s. President Bush and Karl Rove helped them become more important. The suggestion that they are a small and abused group within the GOP is strange. It is as if the Reagan Democrats, largely Catholic and suburban, who buoyed the Republican Party from the late '70s through 2004, and who were very much part of the GOP coalition, decided to announce that Catholics have been abused within the party, and it's time for Christmas commercials with floating Miraculous Medals….”
Don’t worry, she gets back to comparing Huckabee to GWB. What’s with this woman. I swear she’s like the woman scorned. Let’s ask some serious questions here. Does Peggy Noonan have a ‘thing’ on George W. Bush? She’s obviously the woman scorned. And speaking as a woman, we all know hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!Mr. Huckabee is clever.

FYI
All that trash talk about Huckabee not being able to win the general election? Evidently it is coming from the Romney people. If you look at the latest Zogby pairings, Huck would beat Hillary but not Edwards or Obama. But – Romney would be creamed by everyone! Scary thing is look how well Obama is doing.
