The SPLC

[Paslode]

Linguine, fettucine, martini, bikini! Speaking of the Ron Popeil of Hate Business Model, you could change some names and you would be talking about Infowars and a long list of special interest groups!

Thanks to the generosity of four decades’ worth of donors, many of whom—as SPLC president Richard Cohen himself noted in a telephone interview with me—are aging Northern-state “1960s liberals” who continue to associate “Southern” and “poverty” with lynchings, white-hooded Klansmen, and sitting at the back of the bus, and thanks also to what can only be described as the sheer genius at direct-mail marketing of Dees, the SPLC’s 76-year-old lawyer-founder, who was already a multimillionaire by the late 1960s from the direct-mail sales of everything from doormats to cookbooks, the SPLC is probably the richest poverty organization in the history of the world. From its very beginning the SPLC, thanks to Dees’s talent for crafting multi-page alarmist fundraising letters, has not only continuously operated in the black, but has steadily accumulated a mountain of surpluses augmented by a shrewdly managed investment portfolio.

Fear and hate mongering pays off. Ask the NAACP.

So is preying on the unintelligent masses.

They "steal" from the very "people" they attempt to protect. Nice occupation, no integrity issues there I'm sure, then again I've not yet met or even heard of a left-wing liberal with integrity in the first place.

I know of the possibility of one.
They say Liberace's boyfriend never cheated on him.

Lynchin don't happen in the Ozarks no mo?

I live in one of the oldest gold mining communities in NorCal. At the top of the hill about a quarter mile from my house stands an oak tree that's missing a limb. Rumor has it that the missing limb was cut off because it was the local lynching tree. I don't know if it's true or not but it's fascinating if it is.
