Who is the Independent Women's Forum and Michelle Bernard...
Listening to her on C-SPAN she comes across as a moderate observer, but pushes the extreme right positions of the Bush* regime.

1. I think I just heard her on NPR
Tony Cox show (what happened to Tavis Smiley?!) - and as I listened I was wondering if she was from one of those phony Bushian Potemkin advocacy groups. She was talking about Bush meeting with the black religious leaders and the CBC.

2. Go to their website and poke around, pure RW frontgroup.
Sad to see a black woman doing their dirty work.

3. (disregard this post, it's all wrong. brainfart)

If that's possible...How a woman can support an ideology that will ultimately lead to everything being settled by brute force, meaning one in which she will lose every single battle, is beyond me.

Libertarians always seem to be sheltered rich white people, whereas poor whites of this bent become fascist. There really isn't that much difference, though...libertarianism is the path we would take NOW if we want to go totally fascist in the future, but the libertarians don't see it this way.

The fact that they are giving this woman air time on PBS show just how far right PBS has swung.

she's Black? Well, there's a surprise.

edit: I may have this group confused with another one, someone please post if they know the name of the group that is truly right wing, I think this one really is just right wing.

5. Legitimate question: Is the government paying her?
I wonder if she is on the payroll too. Now that the "cat is out of the bag," I think its fair to question all of these public figures when they present their opinions.
