“Is there such a thing as white nationalism? Do they have any web sites?”

Uh, no, not that I’m aware of.

My point was that young whites need to know, for example, that when they go off to the likely communist university of their choice they are likely to learn that whites are mostly evil and inherently racist (racism, anyone?).

Young white’s need to know that there are anti-white influences that mean them harm.

This is a far cry from telling them that they are superior.

They were born as innocent as any child of any race - unless, of course you believe they are genetically predisposed to racial prejudice and bigotry (racism, anyone?).

I abhor racism in ALL forms. White people take it on the chin constantly and they need to wake up and protect their young from the idiotic, self-loathing racists on the left.

“People who claim pride in the color of their skin are pathetic..”

How about:

Black people who claim pride in the color of their skin are pathetic.

Take your logic to the public square and see where it gets you.

I wish your sentiments were true and reflected in real life.

I am a minority and I see what is happening in my community and other minority communities.

If we do not vote for Obama we are racist.....that is what my community people are telling.

So I am just giving you a great advice.

Do a search on ‘White Supremists’.

McCain is losing the Hispanic vote because the GOP has failed to remove the anti-immigrant, anti-Hispanic fringe element from the party. Even with McCain’s credentials for support of comprehensive immigration reform, he could not overcome the image the Republican party has developed thanks to the far right extremists within the party. I warned this would happen, but most blew me off. Now, it will be extremely difficult to win back Hispanic voters in future elections. Without them, we’re done as a legitimate party.

in all fairness, the GOP has not done a good job of reaching out to the average Hispanic voter... i say this every election cycle... we can't wait until there is an election to reach out the Hispanics... it's got to be ongoing and deliberate... i was hoping Bush or the RNC would put something into place while he was in office... however, four years ago, when he and Kerry were running, i realized that the GOP had made no such strides in reaching out to the Hispanic voter...

Unfortunately, reaching out means pandering which is not something the GOP is very good at. What would it take to reach out to Hispanics? Promising open borders and mandating that school lessons and government conducts its business in Spanish. No Thank You.

Yikes, no I didn’t mean to imply any “superiority” white web sites at all.

I was just curious if any groups or orgs had formed to battle discrimination and racism towards whites.

I wanted to ck out their forums.

He shouldn’t be losing Latinos. McCain and Kennedy lost a battle to give them all a free pass to American Citizenship.

there are Latinos that are here legally... and even some who were born here... those are the ones the GOP should be trying to get... i have many relatives, including my parents and grandparents, who were born in the US but are not Republicans... i am one of a handful of Republicans in my extended family... we work and pay our taxes... so free hand outs aren't even part of the equation as to why they do not vote GOP...

Why single out black people? I'll stick by the statement and expand it a bit: people who take pride in physical features like skin color - whether that color is black, white, brown or any other color - instead of actual accomplishments are pathetic.

You are a prime example of the extremist type I mentioned. You not so subtly compared illegal immigrants to Islamic terrorists. Disgusting. If anyone needs to be purged, it's your lot.

You’re right, it’s not a fair comparison. Illegal Aliens kill more of us every year than we lost to “islamic terrorists’ on 9/11. And remember, those terrorists were mostly here ILLEGALLY! It’s because of whining by people like you that we haven’t solved this problem. Be proud.

Obama’s speech to La Raza:

(La Raza (The Race), Largest Hispanic organization in the U.S.
Lobbies for racial preferences, bilingual education, stricter hate crimes laws, mass immigration, and amnesty for illegal aliens )
Obama pimps illegal aliens. Shameful, considering the additional violent crime, third word diseases they bring into this country and the billions of dollars it cost us to take care of them.
SHAMEFUL!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEITOQfKVmo
“I walked the walk. I talked the talk. I marched with you for “civil rights” of “immigrants”. (!!)
SHAMEFUL!

Obama said the recent Senate immigration debate “was both ugly and racist in a way we haven’t seen since the struggle for civil rights.”
SHAMEFUL!

.

How can McCain be losing the Latinos?
Obama shamelessly panders to them:

Obama told La Raza that the mass protests lately of for immigration rights of Mexicans is equal in greatness to the civil rights protest of the past!
SHAMEFUL!

Omama supports La Raza’s, the “DREAM Act,” which would mandate states to offer in-state tuition rates to illegal aliens — thus providing them with benefits not available to U.S. citizens from other states.
SHAMEFUL!

The Heritage Foundation ^ | 10/25/06 | Robert Rector
The National Academy of Sciences has estimated that each immigrant without a high school degree will cost U.S. taxpayers, on average, $89,000 over the course of his or her lifetime.[3] This is a net cost above the value of any taxes the immi*grant will pay and does not include the cost of educating the immigrant’s children, which U.S. taxpayers would also heavily subsidize. In this way, the roughly six million legal immigrants without a high school diploma will impose a net cost of around a half-trillion dollars on U.S. taxpayers over their lifetimes

I think it will become more necessary in the future to defend ourselves as white people.

Do you realize this statement sounds like it came from the hood-obscured lips of David Duke, right?

racist post

liberal post.  

I do realize that I am not afraid of words, and will weigh them accordingly, and judge a man a prophet or a fool.  I do realize that I am troubled by liberals who preach tolerance so that they can really achieve the squashing of dissent.  I realize it saddens me when I see an awesome conservative forum littered with pseudo-conservatives who embrace the exact same methods of liberals.

I know that when these people use words such as "hate," "racist," and the like, it makes me uneasy, roughly in proportion to the degree of alleged conservatism that person believes for which they speak.

Finally, from Christ downward, I know exactly how the people I admire felt about such people, and how they would respond.

So, to coin a phrase:

"Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men."

>>>How Can McCain Be Losing Latinos?

Maybe they read FR and see how when posters want to be nasty to McCain they call him “Juan”.
