Ex-president Bill Clinton is endorsing Nation of Islam chief Minister Louis Farrakahan's "Million More March" over the objections of the Anti-Defamation League, which is urging top politicians to avoid the October event because they say that both Farrakhan and march organizer Malik Zulu Shabazz are anti-Semitic.
"I think this is a very positive idea,” Clinton told the Amsterdam News this week in an interview from his Harlem office.
"I like the idea of a march," he continued. "It’s fine to be concerned about [homeland] security, but we also have to keep trying to make America strong and better here at home." In recent statements, Minister Farrakhan has blamed Jews for both slavery and the Iraq war, the ADL said. Mr. Shabazz said last summer that "the Zionist has no right to open his mouth anywhere on the planet."
Clinton's endorsement came despite the ADL's call for top political figures to distance themselves from the march.
The group sharply chastised Washington, D.C. Mayor Anthony Williams for his decision to participate in the Farrakhan event, saying it was "incompatible with your efforts to eradicate anti-Semitism, racism, homophobia and all forms of bigotry from this city."
But Clinton sounded unfazed by the ADL's objections, saying he remembered the 1995 Million Man March as a very positive event.
"They were basically standing up for the dignity of family and asking African American men and fathers to be more responsible,” he told the Amsterdam News. "It was totally non-violent and got a big participation and it also showed . . . .[that] there’s all these people and they are advocating a responsible agenda and not just asking for something."
Ping!
The other night I was watching public TV in a hotel in Iowa and Farrakhan was on giving an interview saying the US is the fountain of all evil in the world and that Bush was the vessel that delivered it...Clinton is a traitor to the United States and Christendom.
No big surprise since he was the first black Muslim president.
Will bet a years supply of Menthos that Hillary will come out against this. It will make it a bit easier in her Senate run.
It doesn't matter who they are or how much oppression their ancestors suffered, the fact is Farrakhan and Shabazz are bigots, with a capital B. Call them what they are, by their true name, and forget about all the "progressive" crap that gets rammed down our throats by the media.
"I think things like this will further demonstrate to the Jewish voters just how the 'Rats really feel about them."
Excellent point! Let them keep this up. Offend Catholics, African Americans with same sex marriage and the Jewish populus with Farakan(sp), see where their 'base' runs.
I doubt that President Clinton (Hillary) will come out against the march. She'll keep a low profile, while letting the other Clinton endorse it. That way she can appear to endorse the march while not endorsing it.
Considering their attitudes toward sex and the treatment of women, I'd think the Bent One would find Islam very appealing.
That's Bushes buddy Bill Clinton, right?
Anti-Semitic, sure. But they're also anti-American, anti-whitey, anti-capitalism, and anti-civilization.
Clinton should be ashame .........ah, forget it.
Since Beelzebubba was declared to be our first black president, perhaps the Ayatollah Farrakhan can now crown him as the new "Pope Bent-a-dick XIX' of the black Dhimmicrat church.
FMCDH(BITS)
Will they follow Farrakhan's advice and wear a suicide bomb vest to protest their victimization?
Willie's illegtimate son is probably old enough to lead that march by now.. eh?
bubba associating himself with Farrakhan the Fraud. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that bubba is related to him since both display their illegal attributes so well.
Bubba would endorse marital fidelity, if it got his name in the papers.
"he told the Amsterdam News." Oh really. Before he didn't inhale or after?
Guess what fellas and fellettes, we are paying for this guy to trollop around...Still!
Remember when Presidents would just STFU when the retired? Who broke that one in recent history. I will tell you in 2 words: Jimmah Cattah!
Wow, another big suprise there. (Why do I think of Trent Lott every time I hear the name Farrakhan and think double standard?).
Dreamer.... most are like moon-moths to a Moonbat.. FOOD..
They fly toward the DARK...
...Clinton is a traitor to the United States and Christendom.
Clinton once again proving he's a weak, corrupt, ignorant, diseased, bent tiny dick, white trash, impeached, rapist, 1st black president a$$hole.
Semper Fi
He's also anti-intellectual.....a fool's fool.
The Democrat anti-Jewish bigotry should have already been apparent to the US Jews. I can't believe that the secular Jews are not speaking out about what is happening on the campuses of the US universities and colleges.
I was listening to Michael Medved this week when a caller from Irvine, CA, called it to complain about the prevalence of Arabs and Asians in his community. The caller was not the erudite person and his complaints did sound bigotted and offensive, but I didn't completely agree with Medved's answer either. (Medved is Jewish)
Medved replied with an anecdote about a rational Muslim doctor that he had met this week and how this is a country of immigrants and that we shouldn't paint all Muslims with the same brush. Good fine, if you actually meet these educated, rational Muslims, but most of the listeners seldom come in contact with these more educated, wealthier, moderate Muslims. The Muslims that we meet are more likely the hatefilled, in-your-face, blame America first, Muslim converts or radical college students. The Muslims that I came in contact with in Orange County did not mix with anyone. The women walked a few steps behind the men and spoke only when spoken to, and even rode in the back seat of the car, while the young son rode in the front seat. The Middle Easteners also dominate the campus of UC Irvine and even named their soccer team, the Jihadists.
Hillary will still get an overwhelming percentage of the black and Jewish vote, just like any other Dem.
Yeah, right. It has nothing to do about race or religion. It has to do with party affiliation. Jews vote predominantly Democratic/Socialist. Historically, that has been the case for 90 years. Jewish Vote In Presidential Elections Things are not going to change any time soon. We just have to deal with that.
THEN CONSIDER THIS...
The Michael Jackson Complex is a social psychosis and a constant fixation by the media on mutilation of and deviancy with human anatomy.
Morality and all of its associated concepts are from the belief that some higher power defines what is correct in human behavior. Today, "morals" are a pagan religious philosophy based on esoteric hobgoblins where a pantheon of fantasies are the medium of infinitization. Others are derided for having an unwavering Judaic belief in Yahweh or Yeshua, while their critics and enemies wil advocate phantasmagoric fetishisms into secular law.
Perhaps the advocates of homosexual marriage, civil unions, et al, could conclave to enshrine their own phantasmal state religion and consecrate Michael Jackson as their first pope!
Should we really be granting special social benefits based on idolatrous fetishes as a matter of secular law?
see post #30...
"It’s fine to be concerned about [homeland] security, but we also have to keep trying to make America strong and better here at...

That blase` attitude about security is why we got whacked on 9/11.
LOL! That name sounds like some sort of carnival act, not a real name at all!!!
The [ADL] sharply chastised Washington, D.C. Mayor Anthony Williams for his decision to participate in the Farrakhan event, saying it was "incompatible with your efforts to eradicate anti-Semitism, racism, homophobia and all forms of bigotry from this city."
They always have to bring the "gays" into everything, don't they? The ADL stopped being a force to combat antisemitism a long time ago, and now is just another "human rightser" pressure group that supports the fascist New World Order.
The ADL and the other fascists--clinton and Farrakahn--deserve each other!! Jews should desert it in droves, and join with Christians and others who support REAL human rights, not NWO "human rightsers" who bash America, Serbia, Russia, and Israel and force "gays" and islamists down our throats!!!!
Can only hope that those who did not get it after the first 'Million-Not' March', will have, by the next one.
"I like the idea of a march," he continued. "It’s fine to be concerned about [homeland] security, but we also have to keep trying to make America strong and better here at home" (Clinton Wisdomspeak)
. . .and the question is. . .how did our Country become so vulnerable to terror threats. . .nuclear threats. . .security threats. . .
.. .from a man; whose only enemy, was Kenneth Starr.
