SPLC Included The Anti-Muslim Organizations On Its List Of "Hate Groups" Active In 2015. On February 17, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) published its list of active hate groups in the United States in 2015 and announced that the "Center for Security Policy is one of two anti-Muslim groups listed as hate groups for the first time in this year's report. The other is ACT! for America." (Southern Poverty Law Center, 2/17/16)...

ACT! For America's Brigitte Gabriel Appeared Seven Times On Hannity. According to a Media Matters search of Nexis transcripts and internal databases, Brigitte Gabriel, founder of ACT! for America, appeared seven times on Fox's Hannity in the past six months. Many of these appearances occurred in December after Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump called for a ban on Muslims, which she supported. (Right Wing Watch, 12/10/15)

Center For Security Policy's Jim Hanson Was A Repeat Guest On The O'Reilly Factor. According to a Media Matters search of Nexis transcripts and internal databases, Jim Hanson, executive vice president of the Center for Security Policy, appeared at least eight times on Fox News in the past six months. Five of these appearances were on The O'Reilly Factor in December to comment on Trump's Muslim ban and the San Bernardino attack, one appearance was on the February 17 edition of the Factor, during which he praised Ted Cruz, and two more appearances were on different editions of Fox's morning show Fox & Friends. (Center for Security Policy, accessed 2/17/16)

Hate Group Representatives Made One Appearance On CNN, No Appearances On MSNBC. According to a Media Matters search of Nexis transcripts, Center for Security Policy's Gaffney made one appearance on CNN in December after Trump cited his organization's poll in his call to ban Muslims from America. Gabriel, Gaffney, and Hanson did not appear on MSNBC in the past six months, according to the transcripts available on Nexis.

The death of Scalia is huge.

Even though the GOP will show just how much patriotism they dont have by not allowing the Black guy to have a justice, a justice will ultimately be confirmed by a Democrat and this is the end, at that point, of the rightwing hate machine as in national power.

I wish I could appeal to them, myself.

All they have to do is stop hating Blacks, Gays, Asians, Muslims, you know the list, and all of a sudden they will be liberals and also be much happier.

I will never give up on them, no matter how much THEY hate ME.
