Lunatic Fringe
Lead anti-immigration group has ties to extremist group formed by Nazi sympathizers
From the Southern Poverty Law Center:During the heated debate leading up to the 1994 vote on California’s Proposition 187, a punishing anti-immigrant ordinance that would have denied social services to undocumented immigrants had it not been rejected by the courts, an embarrassing truth about the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) was revealed. Press reports disclosed that FAIR, a major backer of Prop 187, was also a major grant recipient of the Pioneer Fund, a racist organization established by Nazi sympathizers in the 1930s to pursue “race betterment.”
As of that year, FAIR had received a total about $1.2 million from Pioneer, which primarily funds race and IQ studies intended to reveal the inferiority of minorities and to this day describes its grant recipients, generally, as “race realists.” Perhaps the press furor would have died down if FAIR had decided to sever its relationship with Pioneer after the fund’s nature was exposed. But it chose not to.
FAIR ended its financial relationship with Pioneer, which as a foundation must publicly disclose recipients of its grants, in 1994. But it did not end the private relationship of top FAIR officials with leaders of the fund. An SPLC review of John Tanton’s private papers, which are stored at the Bentley Historical Library at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor, shows how close the relationship between the leaders of Pioneer and FAIR principals has been for three decades, even in the wake of the 1994 scandal. Not only did Tanton carry on a close correspondence with Weyher and his partner at Pioneer, John Trevor Jr., he also visited both at their homes. (In one instance, he took his staffer Roy Beck, who now runs NumbersUSA, to visit Trevor in Florida.) And at a 1997 gathering organized by Tanton at the New York Racquet & Tennis Club — three years after FAIR had stopped taking Pioneer Fund money — Tanton brought FAIR board members Henry Buhl, Sharon Barnes and Alan Weeden to a meeting with Weyher. Held expressly to discuss fundraising efforts to benefit FAIR, the meeting was memorialized in a Feb. 17, 1997, memo that Tanton wrote for his “FAIR Fund-Raising File.” A year later, on Jan. 5, 1998, Tanton wrote to Trevor to thank him for his personal “handsome contribution” to FAIR.
Liars and Fools
Faux's Glen Brick asks "Why are we headed towards socialism" when world is "collapsing"?.
We aren't and it isn't ... just take you shot and got to sleep, asshole.
Lush Dimbulb lies that Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan is a "budding communist," "the first amendment is something she doesn't like".
Having another syphilitic moment I see there Lush ol'boy.
Michael Savage says Kagan is a "radical leftist red-diaper doper baby".
This idiot needs to stay under his rock ... can't you smell the charring of rotten fetid flesh in the sunlight - that's what happens when the dead try to be among the living.
Faux's Shyawn Handjob, Glen Brick, and many on the wingnuts seize on false claim that Kagan's thesis shows she's a socialist.
Just proves they cannot read or comprehend.
Michael Savage lies: Kagan is "part of the New York City communist front".
Get back under your rock you slime there are decent human beings here.
Lush Dimbulb falsely claims Kagan "has written mostly on the dangers of the collapse of socialism and how we need to revive it".
Boy, the syphilis is bad today isn't it Lush.
