Exactly what I was thinking:
The Southern Poverty Law Center is a far-Left legal and activist organization created in 1971 in Montgomery, Alabama. It was founded by trial lawyers Morris Dees and Joe Levin, and its first president was civil rights leader Julian Bond, who would later take control of the NAACP. SPLC supports a wide variety of liberal positions; it is pro-immigration (both legal and illegal), advocates multiculturalism and the homosexual agenda, supports Muslims and racial preferences and defendants’ rights, and advocates against what it considers “hate groups”. In 2012, Black pastors confronted the Southern Poverty Law Center for smearing as “hate groups” pro-family organizations opposed to homosexual agenda.[1] Reverend Dr. Patrick Wooden declared that it is wrong to compare “my beautiful blackness” with homosexual perversion.[2]
The SPLC’s op-ed writings have appeared in the Communist Party USA’s newspaper People's World.[3] This “controversial, liberal organization” [4] has been criticized in mainstream press for being extravagant in its spending, and using charges of racism to stifle conservatives.[5]
Ol' Mo' is a Grade A prick. As soon as the non-profit SPLC was throwing off cash, Dees built himself a lavish new home. He walked out on his wife and two sons and moved in with his secretary/mistress. So far, he's gone thru five wives.
His first ex-wife and his sons hate his guts. With reason.
Dees specializes in shaking the Jewish moneytree. Whenever the cash flow at SPLC slows, he'll expose a new anti-Semitic threat -- the Klan, neo-Nazis, conservative Christians, radical kitties, etc. --and charter a jet to Fort Lauderdale and New York. Two weeks later, the SPLC coffers are over-flowing.
Morris Dees is a despicable man.
