SUMMARY: Jim Quinn defended his referring to the National Organization for Women as the "National Organization for Whores" by claiming, "The reason is that's just what they are. They're political whores. They are whores for liberalism in general," later adding that "they were whores for Bill Clinton in particular." Quinn also addressed his comment that Philadelphia Daily News columnist Fatimah Ali should "get an American name, will you, if you want to be an American," by saying, "The point is that African-Americans -- excuse me, black Americans, after their indoctrination into Marxism, adopting clearly non-American, Third World-type names, is an act of separation."

On the September 5 broadcast of The War Room with Quinn & Rose, co-host Jim Quinn, addressing the fact that he had referred to the National Organization for Women as the "National Organization for Whores" on September 3, stated: "Now, there's the question of referring to the National Organization for Women as the National Organization for Whores. There is a reason for that. The reason is that's just what they are. They're political whores. They are whores for liberalism in general. You can see -- I mean, just take a look at how they dealt with [Gov.] Sarah Palin for the past couple of days."

Quinn later added, "The National Organization for Whores -- they're whores for liberal politics in general, and they were whores for Bill Clinton in particular, which is where that phrase originated."

Quinn also addressed why he had played Elton John's "The Bitch Is Back" after stating, "By the way, that brings us to our Hillary Heads-Up" during the August 27 broadcast of his show, which was highlighted by Media Matters for America. Quinn said, "Oh yeah, the bitch is back ... the Hillary theme song. Apparently this intern that they've [Media Matters] got listening to our show every day, Greg Johnson, just started listening because we've been using that theme song for, oh, upwards of 13 years."

Additionally, addressing his September 3 comment that Philadelphia Daily News columnist Fatimah Ali should "get an American name, will you, if you want to be an American," Quinn called his remark "political hyperbole," adding: "The point is that African-Americans -- excuse me, black Americans, after their indoctrination into Marxism, adopting clearly non-American, Third World-type names, is an act of separation. And that act of separation is fostered by the very Marxist philosophies that are conveyed to them through black liberation theology and also the Nation of Islam." He later added, "And one of the results of that is that there's a lot of black people in this country who want nothing to do with anything American, anything that looks American, or sounds American, as opposed to the original American experiment, which was to bring everybody on board."

From the September 5 broadcast of Clear Channel's The War Room With Quinn & Rose:

QUINN: And it's not up to a bureaucracy to pick winners and losers and decide which person to loot and give their money to somebody else. It's -- this has been a growing issue in this country over the past 100 years, and it's a cancer on America. And we have the cancer party, which, of course, is -- well, you know, I shouldn't say that. I shouldn't say "the cancer party" because, you know, it might end up in Media Matters for America, which brings us, ladies and gentlemen, to our Media Heads-Up.

Oh, no. Oh, no, fear and loathing in the morning. Yes, I've been busted again, ladies and gentlemen, by the geniuses at Media Matters for America. Now, you may remember the first time we ended up on Media Matters' radar screen was when we broke the story that Kathleen Sebelius, the governor of Kansas, conspired with [Democratic National Committee chairman] Howard Dean and [Sen.] Dick Durbin [D-IL] to withhold federal help from the Greensburg, Kansas, victims of the tornado while Gulag Dick Durbin and Howard Dean figured out a way to tie it to Bush's Iraq war, and the way they finally did it was they said, "Well, we didn't have enough first responders. National Guard wasn't there because they were in Iraq." Well, of course, we found out later that was ridiculous. It wasn't true. There was like 1,400 National Guard guys there, the whole thing was a scam. And if you remember after we broke the story and then broke it on Hannity and also broke it on Roger Hedgecock's show on KOGO out in Los Angeles, Media Matters printed this big, long article about what a bunch of liars we were. Now, see, if Media Matters really was a watchdog group that was concerned with the truth, they would have called us and asked us who our sources were. We wouldn't have told them. But they would have called and asked for some justification. They never called.

Last week -- what did I get busted for last week? Oh yeah, "The Bitch Is Back," the Hillary theme song. Apparently this intern that they've got listening to our show every day, Greg Johnson, just started listening because we've been using that theme song for, oh, upwards of 13 years. Well, the other day, I referred to the National Organization for Women as the National Organization for Whores, and I never say anything on this show that I can't defend, folks. And also I mentioned -- I played that [Fox News' Special Report host] Brit Hume "Grapevine" piece where he talked about the columnist Fatimah Ali, and -- she's the one that said, you know, "if Barack isn't elected here, we're going to have all-out race wars, it's just going to be awful, it'll be famine and pestilence, it'll be the Great Depression" and all that. And I came back in and said, "Well, you know, first of all, get an American name, OK?"

Now, I'm sorry, but that is political hyperbole. Apparently, Mr. Johnson either is too dumb to get the point or just doesn't want to get the point. The point is that African-Americans -- excuse me, black Americans, after their indoctrination into Marxism, adopting clearly non-American, Third World-type names, is an act of separation. And that act of separation is fostered by the very Marxist philosophies that are conveyed to them through black liberation theology and also the Nation of Islam. They're both conveyor belts for Marxism. I am commenting -- using political hyperbole -- to comment on an effect of what happens when multiculturalism or group politics is used as a wedge to separate one American from another. And one of the results of that is that there's a lot of black people in this country who want nothing to do with anything American, anything that looks American, or sounds American, as opposed to the original American experiment, which was to bring everybody on board. That's what I was referring to, Greg. I'm happy to help you out with that.

Now, there's the question of referring to the National Organization for Women as the National Organization for Whores. There is a reason for that. The reason is that's just what they are. They're political whores. They are whores for liberalism in general. You can see -- I mean, just take a look at how they dealt with Sarah Palin for the past couple of days. All of a sudden, women need to stay home and raise their babies and stay barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen. Oh, wait a minute, oh, hold on a second, [Washington Post columnist] Sally Quinn had an explanation for that. In her world, women don't do that, but in the world of evangelicals, everybody knows evangelical women must be subservient to their husbands. It's amazing to me how somebody inside the Beltway like Sally Quinn can be so conversant with the nuts and bolts and day-in and day-out life of those evangelicals. The National Organization for Whores -- they're whores for liberal politics in general, and they were whores for Bill Clinton in particular, which is where that phrase originated.

Well, I mean -- if you remember, Monica Lewinsky, not a peep. Oh, every once in a while they would drag [former NOW president] Patricia Ireland on Fox and get her to grudgingly say, "Well, I don't really approve it [unintellilgible]." But that's about it. And then there was Kathleen Willey and the intimidation, the nails in the tires, the killed cat, the jogger out in the front of her house telling her that she doesn't know what she's dealing with. Look what they did to Linda Tripp. Holy -- they turned Linda Tripp into a national villain, simply because she blew somebody in who was trying to get her to commit a federal felony. The National Organization for Whores, they're political whores for liberalism, and they were whores for Bill Clinton in particular. Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp -- oh, and let's not forget Juanita Broaddrick. Juanita Broaddrick even went on CBS and told her story of rape. Remember? "Put some ice on that"? Rape at the hands of Bill Clinton. She went on TV with that. Now, let me tell you something. If a credible woman like that went on TV and made that allegation about a Republican president, he would have been hounded and driven from office. Every day, the National Organization for Woman would be outside of the White House. Every day, The Washington Post, The New York Times, NBC, CBS, ABC would have another person on there, another feminist weighing, every pundit, every columnist, every one of them would weigh in day after day after day until they drove them out of office, the way they drove [former Sen.] Bob Packwood [R-OR], the kissing bandit, out of office.

No, the National Organization for Whores are political whores for liberalism in general, and they were whores for Bill Clinton in particular. Bill Clinton could do anything he wanted to to women, and those girls would roll over and say, "Sock it to me, honey. It's all for a greater cause." Feminism, which is nothing more than a conveyor belt for liberalism. If it was about women, they'd be celebrating Sarah Palin. They're not. And by the way, speaking of Juanita Broaddrick and Bill Clinton and the National Organization for Whores who defended him or at least didn't come out and condemn him, which they should have -- speaking of that, do you remember David Schippers? He was the Chicago Democratic prosecutor who worked with some rape crisis people to investigate this, and he did, and Juanita Broaddrick said that she was raped. What was your conclusion, David?

SCHIPPERS [audio clip]: Absolutely, the woman was raped twice, and the rape counselor he's talking about was a member of my staff who came back to me after talking to Juanita Broaddrick for hours and hours and hours and said to me, "Dave, that woman is a classic rape victim. She's telling the God's truth."

QUINN: Hey, Greg Johnson, Media Matters, print that.

        I never heard of Quinn, but it doesn't surprise me that after 8 years of Bush rule we have an FCC that has turned a large part of our broadcasting system over to the party of prevaricators.  Perhaps it's a competition for ratings.   Unable to outwit each other, they resort to vulgarity, vying for the "shock-jock" title.  For a while, Limbaugh was in the lead having coined the term"feminazi" for any woman with whom he disagreed. Surprisingly, college-age women were enamored of this turdblossom and his ilk.  Sadly, there are too many American women who are turned on by the kind of vulgarity that Limbaugh and Quinn spew.  Is it the implied testosterone?  Then there are the women competing with them: Coulter and now Palin, the self-described lipsticked pit bull.  (Why would anyone be amused by a woman who compares herself to a bitch?)  Yet men--admittedly most of them Republicans, many sincere Christians, quite a few of them identifying themselves as fundamentalists and evangelicals--are turned on by such women!  It's an odd culture we're living in!

        Tommy, I've got to agree. I don't know how anyone would argue that's not a reasonable assessment.

        And referring to folks involved in politics that willingly turn a blind eye on certain situations/behavior if it means that it furthers their political agenda, are indeed political whores.

          Oh yes. Remember, Jeter is supposed to be one of the *moderates* on this board, but he thinks it is okay to call a group of women "whores," simply because he doesn't agree with their position. I have no idea what you mean by "turn a blind eye," but I'm sure if you had a point, you would have explained it rather than defending an inflamatory (and sexist) label.

        Well, thanks for clearing that up, genius.  All the issues that NOW fights for have now officially been declared liberal causes by Professor Tommy.

        And since you want to paint all those issues with one political color, I guess we can then confirm that conservatives fight for the exact opposite of everything NOW fights for.
         
        Therefore, not only are conservatives in favor of hindering reproductive rights, but that they are also in favor of:

        Hindering diversity.
        Promoting racism.
        Promoting violence against women.
        Hindering equal rights for lesbians.
        Hindering constitutional equality for women.
        Hindering economic justice for women.

          rockwithsomenumbers,

          Here's what conservatives are for:

          Inclusion   It is the opposite of Diversity, it's that which divides use usually according to leftist groupings.  We would rather people identify with country not race, gender, lifestyle, etc.

          Ending racism. by recognizing the power of the individual as is best available resource we have and removing the 'labeled' kind of American.  Allowing individuals to rise and fall on their own merits instead of telling them they should be beholdin' to how the left has defined their racial behavior.

          Protecting women from violence. we should be on the same page but NOW has given that away because they allowed it in bill clinton.  No outrage at how he demeaned his wife and daughter, womanized and treated women as objects, used his position to intimidate and foist himself on women.  Conservatives don't tolerate abusive treatment of women.

          Lesbians and homosexuals have always made up about 2% of any population.  They have equal rights but not acceptance.  I don't think you can ever effect acceptance of a lifestyle that is not 'normal'.  But we should protect all citizens in the law both to live their lives safely and understand that equal rights doesn't mean that others have to accept it.

          Again, women have equal protection but NOW would say this lays mostly in the bounds of the right to abort a baby.  Women are equal enough to now have served as governors and now even vice presidents. something NOW seems unable to celebrate.

          As far as economic justice....  http://www.crosswalk.com/news/11574535/

          Hope this clears things up.

            Your desire to clear things up is best served on Tommy, since he's the one who basically labeled these causes as exclusively liberal, and my post was clearly marked as sarcasm because he surprisingly walked right into it.

            I let the actions of conservatives, not the words of an anonymous poster, dictate my view of the prevailing conservative stance on such issues, so there's no need for clarification here. 

            Since McCain values working women as much your link says he does, why is he completely unwilling to make such declarations for all women when he legislates?   My guess is it's only when it comes in handy politically and makes for good PR.

            I must have missed the news when Bill Clinton was charged and convicted of violent acts toward women.  It's probably because I choose to get such news from reputable sources, instead of professional right-wing liars.  I do recall Clinton getting impeached over lying about a consensual affair that he had with a woman while he was president, but there were no allegations of violent conduct in that instance.

            Since when are you so concerned about Hillary and Chelsea?  You think I'm stupid enough to believe that crap after seeing both of them get dragged through the mud for years by conservatives?  Get real.

              Woman? How about a subordinate? NOW was all over Thomas during the Thomas/Hill proceedings...totally backed Hill's story even though Brock himself claimed she was "a bit nutty and a bit slutty". NOW loved Clinton, hated Thomas, believed he would be a threat to abortion, and so turned a blind eye on Monica, one who they claim they want to protect in the workplace against sexual harassment, because it was Bill, and I suppose she really enjoyed the cigar. Both were women, both were subordinates, both claimed sexual relations with their boss....one with a cigar, one with an unsubstantiated claim.  NOLW fits. Ideology above all else.

              Walked into it? Everyone knows NOW is a liberal organization whose ideological interests outweigh any gender based interests, otherwise their primary focus, liberal activism, would be irrelevant, and it certainly is not.

              You are free to trumpet their accolades as championing the right fight for all women, and they are free to advertise themselves as such, but we all know better.

            PrideGoethBeforeAFall,

            Diversity actually implies an encompassing of difference within a whole, so no, inclusion is not the opposite of diversity.  As for whether or not conservatives are for inclusion, why don't you ask your gay friends if they feel included in basic social institutions when denied marriage to the one they love?

            As for ending racism by recognizing the power of individuals... great idea!  Funny, though... I seem to remember that Martin Luther King wasn't talking to himself when he gave his 'I Have A Dream' speech.  It looked to me like there were a whole lot of people in front of him.  I'm probably mistaken.  The film was pretty old, after all, but it sure looked to me like some kind of social movement, which would make sense since institutional racism's target isn't the individual but an entire category of individuals.

            Protecting women from violence: great idea as well! Obviously the best way to do that is to impeach the president!  OK, no more sarcasm -- when did Bill Clinton demean his wife and daughter?  He cheated on his wife, and that reflects badly on him alone. 

            On homosexuality: 2%? Please. I'd like to know your source for that statistic. (And guess what: when people feel that their lifestyles aren't accepted they tend not to admit to their lifestyles in surveys.) Even if your 2% statistic were 'true' -- and I would argue that it's impossible to objectively measure sexuality -- the rest of your argument is absurd. 

             "I don't think you can ever effect acceptance of a lifestyle that is not 'normal'."

            Well, I guess black people are just plain screwed then, huh?  They're not the norm. Nor are women.  Any sociologist can tell you that the most unmarked and normative social position in America is the Christian white male.  Tough luck, ladies -- ProudConservative thinks you'll never be accepted in society.

            With respect to equal protection: yeah, I know, NOW is so silly for trying to ensure that women's wombs don't become state property at the moment of conception.  I mean, seriously -- who do these ladies think they are by presuming to argue that a woman should be free to use Plan B if she wants in order to prevent implantation of a blastocyst?  That blastocyst has rights!  And how dare they suggest that a woman should be able to decide whether or not to have an abortion?  Isn't it awful that Bristol Palin had to decide not to have an abortion?  The decision not to have one should have been forced on her!

            Inclusion   It is the opposite of Diversity, it's that which divides use usually according to leftist groupings.  We would rather people identify with country not race, gender, lifestyle, etc. - which is why we only cater to white folks. If you've got color in your skin you can serve our tea, wash our car or shine our shoes, but to assume you are gonna be treated like an equal? Well, that ain't happening...

            Ending racism. by recognizing the power of the individual as is best available resource we have and removing the 'labeled' kind of American.  Allowing individuals to rise and fall on their own merits instead of telling them they should be beholdin' to how the left has defined their racial behavior. - We end racism by only running white people for office. Our motto is if you can't wipe 'em out, breed 'em out. We'll do everything in our power to end immigration of colored folks too. You'll never find a person of color in any meaningful capacity in the republican party.

            Protecting women from violence. we should be on the same page but NOW has given that away because they allowed it in bill clinton.  No outrage at how he demeaned his wife and daughter, womanized and treated women as objects, used his position to intimidate and foist himself on women.  Conservatives don't tolerate abusive treatment of women. - We practice that by cutting funding to women's shelters and have found that white conservative domestic abuse has been on the rise since the republican takeover. We will never put down a woman which is why we are running a VP who has a pregnant daughter that isn't held accountable for her poor choice, is vindictive and lies. She really is a beacon of conservative family values.

            Lesbians and homosexuals have always made up about 2% of any population.  They have equal rights but not acceptance.  I don't think you can ever effect acceptance of a lifestyle that is not 'normal'.  But we should protect all citizens in the law both to live their lives safely and understand that equal rights doesn't mean that others have to accept it. - That's why we deny equal rights to them. As long as we live and breathe we will never allow them to serve our country in the military (and then call them america haters because they don't like the military), we will never openly vote for them, but if one gets exposed for being a hipocrite (larry craig) our christianity says turn the other cheek and let him continue serving. Now if he was a democrat...

            Practicing what conservatives preach is just a saying. Conservatives really mean "do as I say and not as I do".

          Many of the local GOP hate merchants have been around a long time.  They can have a more personal connection to their audience.  And they can tailor the GOP talking points to the particular nature of their local audience and make them more effective.

          In aggregate I think the locals may have more effect than all the syndicated shows.  It's at the least a largely unexploited treasure trove for Media Matters.

            Blah, blah, blah. Abortion.

            Zealot psychopath, Palin would force women to have a baby even of they were raped. And if you don't live by the faith that tells us life begins at conception, even forced conception under Palin's rapist bill of rights, get a back alley abortion maybe survive that; Mrs. Palin has the electric chair waiting for you.

            So go shove your abortion views straight up your ass, I'm sick of you zealots using government to tell the rest of us how to live.

        True, but I thought NOW was also for equality and protection for women in the workplace, defending women against things like unequal pay or perhaps a male boss who stuffs them full of Macanudos. I guess it all depends on who the abuser is.

      Keep it up Greg Johnson..you have this jagoff back on his heels. He has been the same jerk since his sexual harrassment(wiki it if you must) case which probably has something to do with his contempt for women.

      He has spouted nonsense or should I say has read news reports and blogs as if it was his own writing for many years. Notice his defense about the NG in Missouri. His source, son of deep throat, told him but it has never been proven true. He also had info about Obama and some jerk in a limo. He also knows about Mrs. Obamas' invisible tape etc.etc.etc. His nonsense works well in the Alabama sections of Pa and Ohio, his fan base.

      Quinn knows it all..just ask him. Then, call him out to debate an issue and this twit is as ignorant as can be. I sincerely hope that the NOW finally challenges him and his comments by informing his advertisers and management that they will make it known what kind of hateful jerk this bum really is.  And imagine, the good Christian woman Rose, sits at his side and allows this to happen. Rose, you should be better than that.

      …QUINN: Hey, Greg Johnson, Media Matters, print that.

      ---------------------------------------

       

      QUINN: And it's not up to a bureaucracy to pick winners and losers and decide which person to loot and give their money to somebody else.

      >>>That’s just what privatization of appropriately governmental functions has been all about under the GOP rule

      QUINN: It's -- this has been a growing issue in this country over the past 100 years, and it's a cancer on AmericaAnd we have the cancer party, which, of course, is -- well, you know…

      >>>Yes we do know, the modern day GOP is like a cancer, brainwashing more and more people to act against the good of the larger organism (country) to the eventual detriment or demise of all the cells---cancerous and normal alike.  Hate radio is a primary carcinogen.

      QUINN: Oh, no. Oh, no, fear and loathing in the morning. Yes, I've been busted again, ladies and gentlemen, by the geniuses at Media Matters for America.

      >>>Yes he has.  But it doesn’t take genius to see through this rhetoric.

      QUINN: Now, you may remember the first time we ended up on Media Matters' radar screen was when we broke the story that Kathleen Sebelius, the governor of Kansas, conspired with [Democratic National Committee chairman] Howard Dean and [Sen.] Dick Durbin [D-IL] to withhold federal help from the Greensburg, Kansas, victims of the tornado while Gulag Dick Durbin and Howard Dean figured out a way to tie it to Bush's Iraq war,…

      >>>Blatant political propagandists are not believable generally, but especially so when their story is based on an unnamed source.  Credibility has to be earned and reputation must be at stake to take someone’s word on a story like this.  He has neither the credibility nor reputation to lose to make this worthy of consideration.

      QUINN: Now, see, if Media Matters really was a watchdog group that was concerned with the truth, they would have called us and asked us who our sources were. We wouldn't have told them. But they would have called and asked for some justification. They never called.

      >>>Perhaps they knew he wouldn’t have given a name to them because then the story could be disproved and backfire on the GOP politically and legally?     

      Quinn: Last week -- what did I get busted for last week? Oh yeah, "The Bitch Is Back," the Hillary theme song. Apparently this intern that they've got listening to our show every day, Greg Johnson,…

      >>>He must have drawn the short straw.

      Quinn: …and I never say anything on this show that I can't defend, folks.

      >>>more properly should be “…that I can’t TRY to defend…”

       QUINN: "Well, you know, first of all, get an American name, OK?"

      >>>Implicit is this statement is that HE has an American name.  Quinn is not a real American name.  It is Gaelic in origin but not even known primarily as Scottish in America.  It’s considered, correctly, an Irish name here, held mostly by those of Celtic/non-British origin and also non-Protestant originally. 

      Quinn: Now, I'm sorry, but that is political hyperbole. Apparently, Mr. Johnson either is too dumb to get the point or just doesn't want to get the point. The point is that African-Americans -- excuse me, black Americans, after their indoctrination into Marxism, adopting clearly non-American, Third World-type names, is an act of separation.

      >>>The name doesn’t make someone a real American.  It provides only a clue in some cases.  The more obvious one in this case is the mostly non-Caucasian and non Anglo-Saxon appearance of American Blacks.  And further, African-Americans who wish to do so have a very easily understandable reason as their original American names are those of their ancestors’ masters.

      Quinn: I am commenting -- using political hyperbole -- to comment on an effect of what happens when multiculturalism or group politics is used as a wedge to separate one American from another.

      >>>He has this backwards.  The primary separatist group is the real Americans.  The Democratic Party is partly a reaction to that historically.

      Quinn: And one of the results of that is that there's a lot of black people in this country who want nothing to do with anything American, anything that looks American, or sounds American, as opposed to the original American experiment, which was to bring everybody on board.

      >>>It was never an experiment, that is to say a conscious decision by the American people or their leaders to bring in non real Americans for the possible good of America or the world.  Immigration was fought hammer and tong but because big business wanted cheap labor, the politicians of the day were bought off.  The labor/people required for Westward expansion is just the window dressing put on after the fact to fool today’s’ Americans into believing that the bluebloods were selfless, noble humanists.

      Quinn: Now, there's the question of referring to the National Organization for Women as the National Organization for Whores. There is a reason for that. The reason is that's just what they are. They're political whores. They are whores for liberalism in general.

      >>>Liberalism is friendly to feminism, hence the attraction.  The D party is friendlier to both than the R party.  Not complicated.

      Quinn: …they were whores for Bill Clinton in particular, which is where that phrase originated….Well, I mean -- if you remember, Monica Lewinsky, not a peep.

      >>>NOW is an interest group for women as a group, not individual women affected by particular politicians.  Their interests are better served by the Democratic Party than the Republican Party.  This is very basic.

      Quinn: If a credible woman like that went on TV and made that allegation about a Republican president, he would have been hounded and driven from office. Every day, the National Organization for Woman would be outside of the White House. Every day, The Washington Post, The New York Times, NBC, CBS, ABC would have another person on there, another feminist weighing, every pundit, every columnist, every one of them would weigh in day after day after day until they drove them out of office, the way they drove [former Sen.] Bob Packwood [R-OR], the kissing bandit, out of office.

      >>>I would think it would be in NOW’s interests to try.  Quinn’s agenda is help the GOP turn America into a banana republic.  Women don’t do so well in banana republics.

        Why?  What has Sarah Palin done to further women's social equality?  She is accomplished and successful, but that alone does not a feminist make.  Take a look at NOW's mission statement and priorities.  Why should they support Palin?

              "Women's" issues?  It a ruse for the left and leftists in the guise of speaking for women.  Women's issues go beyond the opportunity to kill a baby in the womb. 

              Maybe they will look at this fact and complain about McCain's treatment of women on his Senate staff.

      it seems most of the posts against quinn are pretty infantile as best.  what he says is, while bombastic and jarring in it's bluntness, is absolutely true.  usually when someone doesn't have the capacity to debate, they resort to personal attacks.  that seems to be what is going on here.  NOW doesn't support women who have different political/cultural viewpoints.  simple as that.  as far as the NOI and Black Liberation BS, same story.  i see it many times a week.  black americans who ingest this ill-formed philosophy definitely tend to move away from cooporation within the society as a whole.  very un-american.  very diverse.  i think the best rule of thumb would to strive to be INTELLECTUALLY HONEST about things - let's stop the knee-jerk crap like "RACIST, FASCIST (that's a good one coming from the left of all places)...", etc.  i would think the country could come together on a lot of things.  we should start with the facts (not BUSH IS HITLER, blah, blah, blah...).
