Robert Stacy McCain takes on the Southern Poverty Law Center and how the left hypes hate

Posted by Conservative Generation for Left Coast Rebel

Need misleading, leftist propaganda for you next MSM article or news story? Then the Southern Poverty Law Center is your epicenter for feeding unfounded and inaccurate “facts” about the growing, crazy, rightwing organizations. Left Coast Rebel had an earlier piece on how SLPC spun the group Oathkeepers as a militia organization. The baseless claim found its way into both NY Times’ authors Frank Rich and David Barstow pieces on the Tea Party Movement.

Robert Stacy McCain at The Other McCain is breaking the latest news from SPLC, which has already started working its way through the MSM. I guarantee that you will hear much more about it.

From The Other McCain:

Dangerous extremist militias taking over America? The Southern Poverty Law Center reports “an astonishing 363 new Patriot groups appeared in 2009, with the totals going from 149 groups (including 42 militias) to 512 (127 of them militias) – a 244% jump” from 2008.

OK, so let’s ask a question: How does the SPLC get these numbers? Do a “find” search on the their list of “Patriot” groups and you discover:

• 37 listings of the John Birch Society;
• 48 listings of We the People;
• 49 listings of Oath Keepers; and
• 50 listings of the Constitution Party.
•
According to the SPLC’s math, then, state-by-state representation of these four organizations count as 184 “Patriot groups” — 36 percent of the SPLC’s total. Let’s ask a few more questions:

Read the rest here.

The SPLC is just leftist political noise to propagate the talking point that the political right is crazy, while trying to drown out the fact that the leftwing crazies are just as dangerous if not more. See the FBI’s Most Wanted Domestic Terrorist List and tell me where all the crazy right wingers are?
