When a Civil Rights Group Hires All Whites… What do You Have?
As we are sonorously and endlessly told, the Southern Poverty Law Center is all about exposing the “hate” and working for “civil rights” in America. But a new website, Watching the Watchdogs, has tracked down the salaries and identities of SPLC’s top officers and it is interesting to note that they are all white people. Not a “minority” in the bunch. And they are all making a pretty penny, too.
Airport Accommodates Muslims With Foot-Washing Basins
Some call this being tolerant, but others will see this as a growing intolerant trend to accommodate one group of persons over another.
This is from World Net Daily:
The Kansas City International Airport has added several foot-washing basins in restrooms to accommodate a growing number of Muslim taxicab drivers who requested the facilities to prepare for daily Islamic prayer, WND has learned.
The move concerns airport police who worry about Middle Eastern men loitering inside the building. After 9/11, the airport beefed up its police force to help prevent terrorist attacks.
"Why are we constructing places of worship for them inside our airports?" said an airport official who requested anonymity. "Why are we catering to their rituals? We don't do it for any other religion."
Other major airports also are dealing with increased demands from Muslim cabdrivers.

Islamists and Pushing the Common Sense Envelope
by Sher Zieve
Pushing the envelope in order to continue to check Americans’ political correctness and acceptance of terrorists’ "rights" has now become the order of the day for Islamists—that is for Muslims intent upon using American "tolerance" against us. Muslim cab drivers at Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) airport have decided they will no longer accept passengers who are ‘transporting alcohol’. Over 50% of the taxi drivers at MSP airport are now Muslims.
On 6 June 2006 the Islamic drivers issued a formal "Fatwa" to the Metropolitan Airports Commission, advising it that allowing passengers who carry alcoholic products is now prohibited; as it would involve "cooperating in sin according to Islam". Thus far, I have neither read nor heard of any response to the Muslim demands. Instead, MSP airport is considering the installation of a "Muslim prayer room"—at the request of Muslims—largely in response to the "flying imams" who recently overtly tested US Airways security and the flying public’s reactions to the imams’ terroristic-type behaviors. With respect to Muslim prayer rooms, airport in Nashville, TN, Columbus, OH and Fort Lauderdale, FL already advertise them! Of course, airports have not offered to install Christian prayer rooms—that would be "discrimination".
What Is Liberalism?
by Carl A. Patton, FreedomJournal
WHAT IS LIBERALISM? Liberalism during the height of the Civil Rights Movement identified White people who were not racist. Liberals in 2001 mean people Black and White who believe in the Anti-Christ. They believe that the homosexual life-style is normal behavior. They believe that women should have the right to terminate the existence of an unborn child.
Do Liberals uphold the First Amendment despite race, sex and religion? For example Liberals stand in line to Censor the writings of the FreedomJournal. I have published a book that is being censored and banned. The book Big Ralph: Reflections of a Black Police Chief is the biography of the late Ralph H. Cothran the first Black Police Chief in Chattanooga, TN. The book also renders a critique of the Civil Rights Movement. So are Liberals only interested in equality when you agree with their ungodly actions? For the record we are not advocating that so-called Conservatives have an exclusive lock on good sense and respect for the First Amendment.
However, many Conservatives seem to have more knowledge of God. Thus, they usually believe in the Laws of God as to the order of man and woman. Also, for the record Liberals nor so-called Conservatives have supported the First Amendment Rights of the FreedomJournal
It is not ordained by God that men should marry men and that women marry women. However the people that believe in same sex marriages are ungodly and the Anti-Christ. Also many even claim to be Christians and believe in God. However they distort the scriptures and commit Hell-Bound blasphemy when they preach and teach that God loves Sin. God loves all He created but he does not love Sin, He hates Sin. This behavior is Sin.
The Gay Rights Movement as well as Women's Liberation Movement has stifled the Civil Rights Struggle. Those that believe that respect for degenerates is responsible behavior are very confused. However the world is set in wickedness and those that have loose morals are running rampant throughout the world. Thus these people claim that God-Fearing people are in error and that to denounce ungodly behavior is discrimination. Sin is Sin and the people of God have a responsibility to note Sin. However, the acknowledgment of Sin is not Hate. Although to acknowledge the Sin of Homosexuality is noted as hate by the Homosexuals and their supporters.
Black Minister Calls for Prosecution of Cynthia McKinney
Some people will try to use the racism card to get away with breaking the law.
Rev. Peterson Says McKinney Using Claims of ‘Racism’ to Stop Charges
LOS ANGELES, April 4 /U.S. Newswire/ — On March 29 Rep. Cynthia McKinney D-GA) struck a police officer who attempted to stop her when she entered a House office building without proper identification. According to witnesses, McKinney three times ignored Capitol Police orders to stop at a security checkpoint. Rep. McKinney later held a press conference with her attorney and supporters where she accused the Capitol Police of "racism" and of "racially profiling" her. Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, founder and president of BOND (Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny) issued the following statement regarding this matter:
"This situation is an example of a black liberal Democrat using allegations of racism in order to get away with breaking the law. It’s disgraceful that Cynthia McKinney would charge the Capitol Police with racism for trying to do their jobs. Charges of ‘racism’ and ‘racial profiling’ by McKinney and her attorney are code words often used to intimidate white Americans and get black racists off the hook.
McKinney could have easily defused this situation by apologizing for not having proper identification and for attacking the officer; instead, she held a press conference flanked by known racists such as Harry Belafonte, Danny Glover, and members of the NAACP. The real racists here are Cynthia McKinney and her racially divisive supporters. The U.S. Attorney’s office must vigorously pursue this case regardless of the race, gender, or position of the person involved, in order to send a clear message that this type of racial demagoguery will not thwart justice."
The Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny (BOND) is a nationally respected nonprofit organization founded for the purpose of "rebuilding the family by rebuilding the man." BOND operates unique programs and services designed to help men and their families. Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson is the author of "SCAM: How the Black Leadership Exploits Black America."

Students Document Abuse of Black History Month on Campuses
Being polically correct on today’s campuses goes to far when elevating one group of people over another group through abuse.
Cross-posted from The National Ledger

Feb 25, 2006
Parents will be surprised — at times shocked — to learn that leading colleges and universities have used the February Black History Month to lash out angrily at whites, to spread socialist and Marxist ideas, and to honor the Black Panthers, according to a statement released by the Young America’s Foundation.
They claim that missing from many Black History Month campus activities were positive messages and discussions about the accomplishments that blacks have made in business, education, government, and science. They also complain that "too few black conservative speakers, such as Ward Connerly, Walter Williams, and Star Parker, were invited to provide a balanced and uplifting message of Black Americans."
Fewer even mention such African-American luminaries as Secretary of State Condi Rice and General Colin Powell.
Young America’s Foundation researched the Black History Month calendars of 83 leading colleges and universities in the United States. The 12 schools listed below highlight the most flagrant instances of left-wing activism’s hijacking of an entire month. Instead of applauding the accomplishments of blacks in history, students were fed a steady diet of "victim politics" and anti-white sentiment.
The list will shock some, but most conservatives and moderates have come to expect such politically-motivated shenanigans from the institutions of higher learning in America.
Black History is American History
"I don’t want a black history month. Black history is American history." – Morgan Freeman
In a recent interview on CBS ’60 Minutes’, Morgan Freeman stated says the concept of a month dedicated to black history is "ridiculous" and racist. He believes giving black history only one month is not right.
Freeman notes there is no "white history month," and says the only way to get rid of racism is to "stop talking about it."
The actor says he believes the labels "black" and "white" are an obstacle to beating racism.
"I am going to stop calling you a white man and I’m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man," Freeman says.

Affirmative Action In The Public Bathroom?
What is this world coming to?
For most people using a public restroom, it’s an easy choice: men’s room or women’s. But A Brazilian city is trying to create an alternative for those who don’t fit easily into either category.
Soon, in the Brazilian city, Nova Iguacu, transvestites may have there own restrooms if the city’s major approves the bill that was just passed by the city council. According to the bill’s sponsor:
Moreira said he got the idea when dozens of transvestites showed up recently for a samba show. "It was a real problem. The women didn’t feel comfortable having them in the ladies’ room, and the men didn’t want them in their bathroom either," he said.

Less than 2% of the city’s population is a transvestite. Most business owners said this new law could pose an unnecessary burden on them.
Affirmative Action In Naming Hurricanes?
The practice of naming hurricanes solely after women came to an end in 1978 when men’s and women’s names were included in the Eastern North Pacific storm lists. In 1979, male and female names were included in lists for the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. This may have been caused by some Women groups claiming why should women’s names be used.
The idea has been considered that there is discrimination against minorities because the naming convention of hurricanes. But, with one of the most destructive hurricane seasons over, why would anyone one minority group want to make claim via by a name, to any hurricane that kills and destroys billions of dollars of property?
Two years ago, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee did consider this change to the naming convention. WorldNetDaily.com reported:
The congressional newspaper the Hill reported that Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, feels that the current names are too "lily white," and is seeking to have better representation for names reflecting African-Americans and other ethnic groups.
"All racial groups should be represented," Lee said, according to the Hill. She hoped federal weather officials "would try to be inclusive of African-American names."
A sampling of popular names that could be used include Keisha, Jamal and Deshawn, according to the paper.
Suppose all hurricanes were given just African-Americans or other ethnic groups, someone could say that the naming convention reflects that African-Americans and other ethnic groups are violent.
Fortunately this idea melted away with the 2003 hurricane season.
