Thank you, Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck — and I’m not being sarcastic. This is such a common refrain from white folks that I’m surprised there hasn’t been some intelligent feedback. I know, it’s hard to bring intelligence to such lameness, but that’s what it will take, right? And at least this introduces the cousin of “one/some of my best friends are black.” (Their aunt is “Magic Johnson is my favorite basketball player,” grandfather is “I believe in the words of Dr. King…”).

I went to montgomery Gentry concert and these neo-nazi punks actually tried to block concert goers from entering the arena. they were to protest the song “some people change” becouse part of the song is about a young white racist who after going to christian revival became so ashamed of himself that he renounced his ways and became an active christian. They actually said country music was “anti-white”. Um it’s mostly white people who listen to country music. Almost all of the artists are white. (Yes I’m a huge country music fan, Big & Rich, Tobey Kieth, Kenny Chesney, Dolly Parton and of course the great one himself GARTH BROOKS!) sorry got a little off topic there. But I guess country music is “not white enough for them” HAHAHAHA!!! LMAO. I just figured since white racist groups were a topic I would throw in my two cents.

That article on antisemitism is really horrid. Could you imagine a piece about any other form of racism that always put “racism” in quotes? Or one that ends by saying, “Sure, there’s plenty of racism, but it’s too complicated to address”?
Sure, the Israeli/Palestinian conflict can get complicated. That’s no excuse to ignore or minimize antisemitism or anti-Arab racism.
