Also, that a leading conservative site like 'Free Republic' has determined that VDARE is 'racist' or whatever the charge is an indictment of FRepublic.

It is the left that makes bogus charges of racism and bigotry and xenophobia agaisnt those who dare not tow PC, multicultural line on matters dealing with race/ethnicity. They do it for several reasons. One is to stifle debate. They know theirs is an unpopular position, so they seek prevent a real debate from happening. They try to demonize the messenger so as to taint the message. Another reason is because it fulfills their need for self-righteous indignation.

Why a conservative site like this does it is more of a mystery. I guess it eases some white guilt the moderators may have. But whatever the case, it is sad because it shows they have ceded the high ground to the left, that they are playing by their rules, that certain ideas and speech is verboten in polite society.

I mean, apparently FRepublic views VDARE no differently than that fraud of group called the Southern Poverty Law Center that goes aroud calling people racist for not echoing the leftwing platitudes that dominate discussion of racial/ethnic matters.
