Matthews' Southern Poverty Guest Associates Stack With 'Radical Right'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/18/2010 6:20:19 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Liberal TV show host? Eager to guarantee that the post-Stack finger will be pointed at conservatives? Choose as your sole guest on the subject someone from the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center. That's precisely what Chris Matthews did this evening, with utterly predictable results.

Right on script, SPLC director Mark Potok twice associated Austin plane-bomber Andrew Stack with "the radical right."

How fraudently did Matthews stack the deck? He described the SPLC as a group "which monitors extremists"—as if the SPLC looks for wackos on the left as well as the right.

Who monitors this renegade group ?
The SPLC is a renegade leftist group just like the ACLU.

They just lie. Instead of the year of the Tigers; it’s the year of the Liars.

Potok: "We did not have him in our files."

Speaks volumes, folks. This is what the left does...

It has always been thus...Lee Harvey Oswald was said to be associated with conservatives before the truth came out.

The left just keeps hoping the truth will not come out. It always does.

Remember when the MSM used to criticize the government? Now they criticize the people who criticize the government.

So this Stack guy didn't like paying taxes. You could say that about most of Obama's cabinet officers ~ and they're all Farleftwingtards of the worst sort.

I'd have to say that Stack is just another Obamista ~ or was, now he's a crispy critter.

The SPLC is an extremist group... The SPLC is the group that authored the original document sent to law enforcement groups in Missouri depicting Veterans, anti-abortionist, Tea Party type conservatives, gun ownership advocates and most any conservative Americans as potential terrorists...

This document made its way into the U.S. Department of Home Land Security and later was turned into an Obama Administration policy statement...

Stack was a proud proponent of several planks developed at the Third Internationale.

He was a trailblazer in a new “-ism” that will eventually take over large swathes of the activist left in the United States.

He takes the same anti-military position as the protesting nuns who sneak on to nuclear submarine bases and the protestors of the SAO base in the Carolinas.

He was a far leftist who had not been coopted by Wall Street. Which makes him an enemy of the state, the state owned by coopted leftists.

Should be interesting to see this intraparty warfare in the Democrat and Wall Street parties as they attempt to carve out the narrative on this attack.

Morris Dees, the head of the Southern Poverty Law Center is speaking at my in-laws Jewish Temple this week. I tried to tell them he’s nothing but a FEAR MONGER who had sex with his daughter inb law, but they think he’s Great because he spoke at another Temple they used to go to. SAPS.

Lies on behalf of the Communist Party.

The man was an anti-Catholic bigot who complained that the Catholic Church committed “tax fraud” with their protection under the guise of religious charity.

I suppose now Matthews thinks that the mark of being conservative is hating George Bush, and the Catholic Church.

I went to the Hardball site and watched the entire eight minute segment with Matthews, the lead in presented as news by Pete Williams, and this guy, Mark Potok.

If you didn't read the manifesto/suicide note left by this schmuck (which they said they had at MSNBC) you would have gotten the idea this guy was a militia nut.

Only by reading the full text here on FR and on the web would you have found the guy was a disturbed Marxist.

The segment was a lie. It cannot be shaded as anything else.

They said the same of Charles Bishop. Blamed it on “young conservatives” and his pimple cream, until his true last name came out along with his suicide note praising Osama Bin Laden
