"Al Qaeda really hurt us, but not as much as Rupert Murdoch has hurt us, particularly in the case of Fox News. Fox News is worse than Al Qaeda — worse for our society. It’s as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan ever was."

^ Skinhead Ku Klux Klan cracker.

Don't get mad, that'd be racist too.

Nyah nyah.

This meme of accusing the people offended by racially charged phrases of being racist themselves is getting really fucking old.

I blame the right wing moron-squad, but they didn't invent it, I'm sure the racist Dixicrats did the same thing, back before they all became Republicans.

We're all humans, and we all know that words can hurt and offend and anger people. Nader knows what kind of a minefield he was walking into using the phrase "Uncle Tom" within 40 miles of Obama's name, and Fox gave him just what he was hoping to get: attention from someone.

We all have a skin color, and we're all part of a history that includes horrible, hateful acts committed by one race against another. It's not racism to wince when someone jabs at that still-healing wound, it's human.

Good humans don't jab at painful wounds like that. Bad humans defend the people who do.

"Hey man, it's your birthday. What do you want to do?"

"I know! Let's go hang out at that Ku Klux Klan rally!"

Racists - those who judge solely based on race - are also Obam's strength. Black Democrats are voting for him because he's Black. It can't be anything else, since Clinton's husband Bill during his 8 LONG years pumped billions into the Black community. Some thanks.

White Democrats are voting for BHO because he's not-White/same old.

Racism? What about opposing Obama's RED socialism, and then there's that politicized, Farrakhan-honoring "church" of his, which has been a delightful embarrassment.

Racism? Why, Obama has the support of Robert "KKK" Byrd D-WV, the longest "serving" member in Congress. Wouldn’t you expect the endorsement of a (half) Black man by a former Grand Kleagle and Exalted Cyclops of the Ku Klux Klan to be headline news?

And yet the the Associated Press buried this historic event.

Why is that, do you think?

Do you think if a former Klansman endorsed a Republican Presidential candidate it would be similarly soft pedaled?

Wait until the Ku Klux Klan see this!

Wow that's some pretty pathetic attacks there qualm. No I deplore the Ku Klux Klan. Attempts at pulling the race card is your best response. You obviously just care about attacking the character of the messenger of an important issue rather than actually discussing the issue. To be honest you're not even worthy of responding to anymore.

Ah, I see. You're also "no fan of" the Ku Klux Klan, but you "agree with their message" too, quite often, I'm sure. You're beneath contempt.

Grow a fucking brain.

Aww, he's messing up that bigoted man's nice little club.


For anyone who finds this video especially compelling, they may want to learn about Stetson Kennedy and how he infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan in the 1940's and managed to seriously undermine their recruiting efforts. It involves the Superman radio program. Really.

Stetson briefly recounts the story in an interview here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4663544

Oh Bill O'Reilly ... You never cease to amaze me... Like the Ku Klux Klan? Nazi Party?
