I couldn't find this article posted, since it mentions FR, I thought it should be, though it is a month old.

Lately SPLC talking points are being used by REPUBLICANS against most of us to pass amnesty!

[snip]At the heart of the attack is the accusation that the leading members of some groups critical of immigration policy were or still are environmentalists and liberals. This attack piggybacks on earlier work by the Southern Poverty Law Center that used some of the same information to accuse those groups of being tied to Neo-Nazi and White Supremacist groups. There’s something rather strange when “conservative sites” not only begin advocating for illegal alien amnesty, but begin repeating the claims that the Center for American Progress, Mother Jones and the Southern Poverty Law Center were making about anti-immigration groups 5-10 years ago. The same Norquist tactics being used to attack the anti-immigration movement can and will be used to attack the Counterjihadist camp. http://towncriernews.blogspot.com/search?q=Splc

So despite any corroborating evidence, patriotic, liberty-minded Americans who discuss politics on websites like FR are immediately suspect and should be investigated by DHS?

GFY SPLC!

Does this organization get government money or is it privately funded? If it DOES get government money, someone needs to shut it down...and NOW!

These guys crack me up. If anybody (like FR) calls them on their crapola, they put them on the "hate threat list."

They remind me of Psycho (Francis) in Stripes - "You just made the list!"

if an organization splinters in a faction fight that shows up as growth, but if two smaller groups join forces it looks like shrinkage

Especially if they meet in cold water.

the center is hyping a 7 percent increase in another category: what it calls "conspiracy-minded antigovernment 'Patriot' groups." The SPLC's definition of "Patriot" is pretty broad: The list ranges from the conservative websites WorldNetDaily and FreeRepublic.com

Holy crap. So now, presenting and/or discussing the news is a terrorist act?

The SPLC *IS* a terrorist organization.

The SPLC called the Center for Immigration Studies a “Hate Group” a year or two ago.

I believe it also called “Numbers USA” a hate group.

The best way to stop that kind of political libel and slander is a serious lawsuit with serious monetary damages.

Instead, CIS and Numbers just put out feckless denials that the average voter never hears about.

The ‘Southern Poverty Law Center’ is more a terrorist origination than most any of theses ‘groups’.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is an extremist organization. They should put themselves on the threat list. I mean, look how psychotic they make already unstable liberals act.

They are as dangerous as they come, especially that wack-job Mark Potok.

Eighteen years ago, the Southern Poverty Law Center wrote then-Attorney General Janet Reno to warn about extremists in the militia movement, saying that the "mixture of armed groups and those who hate" was "a recipe for disaster." Just six months later, the Oklahoma City federal building was bombed.

And every month for the following 18 years this jerk has issued the same warnings. And what's happened? NOTHING.

There were people who were right about 9/11 - made the call on radical Muslims. Would the left allow for those people to make THE SAME CALL for the next 18 years with NO ATTACKS? The hater stirs the pot paying some right winger will break. But we don't. We're just American citizen who happen to be conservative...

The closest the liberal haters have come to 'Victory' was Zimmerman - who turned out to be a Hispanic... and liberal... and related by blood to blacks.

But the MSM was primed and ready for the attack. NBC doctoring tapes, Matthews ready to call for 'right wingers' to be 're-educated'... If Zimmerman had be white white, they would have destroyed him...

Good afternoon.

As long as I have been here, we have been attacked by NGOs, the media, academia and the Executive branch.

Given the above list, I feel honored to be called a FReeper. [plus, as you all know, I use my real name].

You're right Jim, the Founders would have been shooting by now.

The SPLC is just one of the many left wing groups which orchestrates the news prior to the terrorist attacks then controls the spin of the news after the attack to piggy back on the orchestrated news before the attack.

The OKC bombing is a perfect example.

Southern Poverty Law Center revenues, 2011: just shy of 39 million samolians. Manufacturing hate is lucrative! Who’d a thunk it?

A fair description of the Founding Fathers.

No one on FreeRepublic is sending money to Al Qeada in Syria and Iraq.

DC is however. Millions.

I said on a website with leftist moonbats that the SPLC has as much credibility as the KKK. They predictably went nuts.

I have just gone through everything on the Southern Poverty Law Center and there is no mention of Free Republic anywhere. I think the person who wrote the article posted here, drew the name Free Republic out of the air and said they were in the Patriot group. Again, the name Free Republic is not on the Southern Poverty Law Center website and that is a good thing.
