Does this sound like a liberal to you?


Posted: Jan 9, 2011

Jared Lee Loughner, the alleged shooter of Representative Gabrielle Giffords and others on Saturday, may have ties to anti-Semitic, anti-immigration hate group American Renaissance, according to a leaked memo from the Department of Homeland Security.

It's unclear whether Loughner maintains a direct connection to the group, however, "strong suspicion is being directed" at American Renaissance in the wake of the group being referenced in Loughner's Myspace and YouTube videos, according to the memo, which was obtained by Fox News.

American Renaissance is a white nationalist group that operates under a pseudo think tank called the New Century Foundation. The group runs a magazine and conferences based on eugenics and the superiority of whites, according to Southern Poverty Law Center.

The group considers its members to be "racial-realists," according to an "About Us" section on the American Renaissance magazine website. "Attempts to gloss over the significance of race or even to deny its reality only make problems worse," the group writes. "Progress requires the study of all aspects of race, whether historical, cultural, or biological. This approach is known as race realism."

The pseudo-science in the magazine refers to biological superiority of whites, with titles such as "Swine Flu: Is There a Racial Link?" and "Ignoring Biological Reality Means Social and Economic Catastrophe." After President Barack Obama was elected in 2008, the magazine ran a feature called "Transition to Black Rule?"

American Renaissance is opposed to the entry of non-whites into the United States and supports Arizona's SB 1070 immigration law, which was criticized as racist and challenged by the Obama Justice Department. In an introduction to readers when the magazine was started in 1990, the publication wrote that "blacks and Hispanics are, compared to whites, far more likely to be poor, illiterate, on welfare, or in jail; they are far more likely to have illegitimate children, be addicted to drugs, or have AIDS. By no definition of international competitiveness can the presence of these populations be anything but a disadvantage."

Everything you have posted here is the anthesis... - of what I have read about

the tea party. Secondly, there was a followup to this. Fox contacted the man who established the website...a Yale graduate by the way...who said that the shooter is not on any of their subscription lists and has been to none of their gatherings.

So, now is the hate speech going to focus on American Renaissance and off the tea party?

All this does is prove that all this nonsense below IS baseless and it really needs to stop. This was a deranged nutcase, as I said, who did not shoot these people because he was liberal or conservative...he shot them because he is DERANGED.

Hate speech against a group for the actions of an individual is NOT the way to unite the country. There are always going to be nutjobs on both sides...can we unite against the nutjobs and not use their actions to further divide the country?

Why can't we DO that???

It is about what I thought they would find out - about the guy. Seriously

people, you think the guy is a tea partier? Come on, the tea party is not totally antigovernment. They believe there is a need for government, just not a total control of government.

It has really cracked me up that people have thought the guy was a part of the tea party. Look at his pictures on the the news. They guy is 22 and lives at home with mom and dad. I would dare to say that he is very unconcerned about how much we are taxed, the healthcare reform, etc. He doesn't really fit the part of a tea partier.

All people are doing is making a big to do about the tea party, and then it will come out he really wasn't a member. Then, what excatly do the left look like falsely accusing a group of people of encouraging murder. The sad thing is, is that they will still focus on the tea party and not these absolute crazy anarchists.

Out of all three political parties, to which one does this - most compare?nm

The New Republicans Go By Bumper Sticker And 10-sec Sound Bites But No FactsOct 27, 2015
These new extremist Republicans don't use facts. They shout, turn red in the face, get angry, and avoid facts, because the facts don't agree with their agenda. If it can't fit on a bumper sticker, the new Republican party can't understand it. If it doesn't fit in a 10-second sound byte on TV, the new Republican party can't deal with it, because they don't deal with thoughtful understanding of the issues. I seriously long for the old Republican statesmen who ...

Some Liberal Thoughts Oct 25, 2009
If a conservative doesn’t like a news organization or a talk show host, he goes on multiple chat boards and blogs and does everything he can to discredit them. Liberals just don't invite them in.  If a conservative decides he needs health care coverage, it is after he has taken advantage of the system by not carrying it; making payments to healthcare providers who are not in the business of lending money, and sometimes he has filed bankruptcy.  A liberal recognizes that eve ...

1.  It's not all about Trump per se.  Trump is the "face" of liberal rage and bewilderment over something much larger - namely, the nearly nationwide rejection of radical liberalism that they've experienced over the last several election cycles (Obama's reelection notwithstanding). In state after state, the radical left has lost ground. 2.  In the context of #1, one critical consequence of this rejection is that they have lost the opportunity to tilt the Supreme Co ...
