Nativism at NewsBusters

Class-A first-grade WAH-WAH whiner!

Is Rupert Murdoch a US citizen?

So, someone who isn't a citizen shouldn't be commenting/influencing USA politics? We should fear their involvement?

The right doesn't have double standards; they have no standards at all.

I wonder how many times Newsbusters has quoted non-citizen and convicted felon Sun Myung Moon's propaganda organ, the Washington Times. The paper's editors claim the paper has always had "independence" from Moon and his "messianic" agenda,

which is a lie. One former follower, Craig Maxim, who entertained Moon around the world, said he personally witnessed Moon giving orders on what he wanted done with the paper to Josette Shiner Sheeran, a long time Moon follower who some believe actually ran the paper. Several editors quit the paper over editorial independence but that is not the point, which is that Moon wanted to move American right and empower the theocrats as part of his "messianic" agenda – those who read, work for, or quote approvingly the WT are helping him do just that. Moon doesn't have to tell someone like Wes Pruden what to write; he just hires them and turns them loose on our nation's body politic. I would argue that the government's failure to make Moon's organization register under the Foreign Agents Registrations Act has been the primary reason for the radicalization of the conservative movement and the making of the reality free right we see today. Moon outspent anyone propping up, funding and molding the conservative movement we see today.

The first editor of the WT, the every conservative James Whelan, said point blank that it was a "moonie newspaper."

Whelan also said this:

"They (the Moonies) are subverting our political system. They're doing it through front organizations--most of them disguised--and through their funding of independent organizations--through the placement of volunteers in the inner sanctums of hard-pressed organizations. In every instance--in every instance--those who attend their conferences, those who accept their money or their volunteers, delude themselves that there is no loss of virtue because the Moonies have not proselytized. That misses the central, crucial point: the Moonies are a political movement in religious clothing. Moon seeks power, not the salvation of souls. To achieve that, he needs religious fanatics as his palace guard and shock troops. But more importantly, he needs secular conscripts--seduced by money, free trips, free services, seemingly endless bounty and booty--in order to give him respectability and, with it, that image of influence which translates as power."

Subverting our political system...indeed.

Now spend some time searching right wing blogs and sites as many of them fall all over themselves to quote Nile Gardiner, who is a fellow at the Heritage Foundation and has written for many right wing publications including the National Review. Gardiner, is now blogging from across the pond but is still widely quoted by the right. Gardiner is a Brit and an excessively rabid right wing Obama hater who also regularly writes about the huge successes of Bush and Cheney.

The right loves him because he is a foreigner and it makes them feel validated to see him agree with them. They don’t have clue who Gardiner is.

One would think that when Gardiner was writing a front page article for the National Review about how horrible the UN is, he would mention that as second generation follower of Moons, Gardiner's "religion" and "messiah" ordered that the "U.N. must be annihilated" so the Moon organization “remake” it into Moon's vision. (Moon's front groups are working to get the UN to add a theocratic body/mechanism to its structure as part of his plan to theocratize the planet.)

Oh, did I mention that Brent Bozell served on the board of the American Freedom Coalition, non-citizen Moon's front group designed, according to it president, to gather the not Christians, but the Christian "right" for political power?

The AFC is the same group, William Cheshire, another conservative editor who had the principles to quit the WT when he realized the Moon organization used it, mentioned in this talk.

Cheshire: (Moon) is backing the American Freedom Coalition, this strange mixture of moonies and fundamentalist Christians, who hope to organize at the grass roots and skew the American political system to the far right.

According to Doug Wead, the AFC was one of the two most powerful conservative "grassroots" organizations in the country at the time Bozell was helping non-citizen and the self proclaimed "Messiah" with his "mission."

It is the collapse of the Right centered on the Messianic destiny of one man from Korea: who did not listen.

Moon and Busg will see more of North Korea: not less.
