Similarly, Vegas guy, the Ayers book thing is mentioned by MONIQUE, not me. Your disinterest, while admirable, is not shared by Ms. Stuart.

And, obviously, the first and last paragraphs of a rhetorical construction…..look, here’s the point art guy, this is a comments sections of a blog. I am responding to the wit and wisdom of Monique and you should try to read her posting before commenting on my comment. Let’s hope your students don’t fail at basic comprehension the way you did here.

But, I’m generally a nice guy and I appreciate Monique’s rather strange politics and use of her bandwidth, so I’ll just conclude by noting you might to refrain from attempting to drain your pasta through my arguments, when your head would seem to make a better colander.

At the same time, these accusations about Stacy aren’t just coming out of thin air. Since you and vegas art guy and Adjoran all said there is no “evidence,” let me comment on two things I know about that trouble me the most.

1. Two people who worked with Stacy at The Washington Times went on the record to say he was a blatant racist who defended slavery and made bigoted comments about blacks, Hispanics, and interracial couples.

I can’t vouch for the truthfulness of their statements, but I also can’t ignore that professional people with first-hand knowledge of Stacy made these accusations in public.

2. Stacy publicly endorsed white-supremacist stuff that was published in American Renaissance magazine.

Here’s a link to the article, called “A Defense of the Faith”:

And here’s a link to a subsequent letter to the editor in which Stacy said he agreed with the article:

http://www.amren.com/ar/1997/11/

There’s no way I could read that article and react with anything other than condemnation. And Stacy’s letter isn’t the only evidence of his enthusiasm for American Renaissance, which is blatantly pro-white and anti-non-white in its focus. It’s a historical fact that Stacy repeatedly presented Jared Taylor and his American Renaissance organization in a favorable light in the Times, and that Stacy never even hinted to his readers that American Renaissance’s core mission is fomenting racial antagonisms until after the Anti-Defamation League complained about his unbalanced and uncritical coverage.

There’s more evidence — on both sides of the question. Based on what I’ve seen, I wouldn’t pigeon-hole Stacy as a “white supremacist.” But I’ve seen enough to know that the accusation isn’t “wild.”

The Left observes a different standard of “truth,” which bothers not even so far as to care if anyone “believes the lie” at all; it merely requires someone assert it. Given the Left’s “diverse” collection of miscreants, it’s fairly easy to get a false assertion from one of them. What is difficult is getting an honest or true statement from any of them.

My students can come up with better arguements than what you just wasted bandwidth and server capacity with.

We have “McCain’s not a racist, because I said so no matter what the evidence says.”

We have “Bill Ayers wrote Obama’s first book, errr helped, because someone else said so.”

And, [best of all] we have the full-throated defense of a likely contender for the 2012 nomination and boils down to “why would she matter, just because she’s a favorite for the nomination and that very same week Republican officials came out of the woodwork to denounce her dangerous”

Wow, Palin love and fallacies all wrapped together with a pretty bit of homophobia! After reading this dreck, at least the school children will understand why the Republican party evaporated in 2016.

They are afraid of her and the values she represents, they are the same values that the left has been quietly trying to wean Americans from for my entire life.

She is the “actual toothache” that can shake people from their slumber.

That is why she has to be destroyed.
