Isn't FAIR one of the racist organizations? They say they're just against immigration but have funding, etc ties to leftist and racist groups?

Yes, FAIR has been called racist by the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the same people who call Bush a Nazi, 9/2/04 America's Krystallnacht, and Ashcroft Adolf Hitler. Thank you for spreading the lies of the radical left-wingers.

Maybe now you can wonder whether Dan Stein is a neo-con out to drink the blood of Arabs, just because he is Jewish.

IIRC, FAIR is run by a radical pro-abortion eugenicist and has taken donations from eugenics groups.

No, they're not racist. However, one of their principle opponents, the "National Council of The Race (aka. La Raza)" IS racist to the core. They are a leftist group funded by larger leftist groups.

I don't know if FAIR is a racist organization. But I know that groups like La Raza, LULAC, MALDEF, and MEChA, who are continually pushing for amnesty and more rights for illegal alien lawbreakers, are racist organizations.

The answer is no -- and one would be well advised to tread lightly in asking questions like that. Not a criticism, just an observation. FAIR is above Board. Now, whether one agrees with their approach and policies, that's a bit different.
