... graphic containing something former FAIR employee Joseph Turner allegedly said [2]: I consider accusation of bigotry and racism to be complementary Now, think about that: does it really make sense that someone would say that? How do Maddow and Brave New Films want you to interpret that, and is that the correct interpretation? While Turner appears to have said some questionable things, let's try...

... resemblance to the groups she lists (FAIR, Center for Immigration Studies, and others) is that they discuss the same general topics, and do so in English. Those groups do not, for instance, refer to babies as "filth", do not oppose all procreation, and don't even oppose immigration. There's nothing that they've written that would be in the alleged hostage-taker's lexicon, in fact he'd probably...

... the outcome is "discouraging"; FAIR was involved on the pro-American side, as described here. No doubt that's part of the "discouraging".

Newt Gingrich has launched a new Spanish-English bilingual website called "The Americano" (theamericano.com). His motivation isn't known; he might be trying to make money, or he might be trying to help himself and the GOP outreach to Hispanics, or both. Whatever the motivation, he's not doing a good turn for the U.S. and he's not working against how the Democrats are able to gain and maintain...

From a FAIR press release (link): The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has launched its most irresponsible attack to date against the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). The SPLC claims that Shawna Forde, the alleged killer of a little girl and her father during an Arizona home invasion, had ties to FAIR. Although no association exists -- or ever has -- between Ms. Forde and FAIR...

... old warmed-over smears about FAIR and the Center for Immigration Studies, including this: FAIR, which regularly praised Sessions, has been designated an anti-immigrant hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. That might make some members of Congress think twice about developing a relationship with the group, but clearly not Jeff Sessions. As detailed at the last link, the SPLC is not in...

... American Immigration Reform (FAIR)-- an anti-immigrant organization designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center -- decided that he is better qualified than Latino civil rights leaders to speak to Latino views. What's next, David Duke writing about African American views on affirmative action? See their name's link for more on the SPLC. See the ethnic conformity for the "better...

... American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is currently conducting the "Hold Their Feet to the Fire" rally in Washington DC where radio hosts from across the country and their listeners lobby their representatives to support pro-borders causes. Needless to say, the other side doesn't like that too much, and four such groups have joined together to place a scurrilous advertisement in the Politico and...

... American Immigration Reform (FAIR) offered this press release: When examined responsibly, the FBI hate crime data show a dramatically different story than the one the SPLC portrays. First, in order to suggest an artificially large increase in the raw number of hate crimes, the SPLC selects 2003 as its base year, one of lowest years on record for hate crimes against Hispanics. If one compares the...

... of John Tanton, originator of FAIR, CIS, and other groups. Including, of course, this perennial favorite: FAIR, took $1.3 million from the Pioneer Fund, a group that advanced Nazi propaganda in the 1930s and which exists to fund the science of Hitlerian eugenics. Henry Ford had some interesting thoughts as well, yet the Ford Foundation tends to fund a large variety of far-left groups. Both have...

Nick Miroff of the Washington Post offers "Immigrants' Jobs Vanish With Housing Slowdown", about the situation in the DC/Maryland/NoVa suburbs area. Seems some illegal aliens can't find jobs in construction and are leaving mostly for other states, but some are even - gasp - returning to the countries of which they're citizens. Note that just over a year ago, the Washington Post promoted illegal...

... organizations say Vietnamese for Fair Immigration may be one of an increasing number of groups that appear to be nonwhites gathering to ask for greater immigration controls, but are actually groups started with help from whites or from major, mostly white anti-immigrant groups that are seeking greater legitimacy for their views. One wonders why they would be seeking "legitimacy" for views that...
