At the annual Nation of Islams Saviours' Day conference in Chicago Sunday, Farrakhan told an audience of thousands, your country has been taken from you by the synagogue of Satan. [Saviours Day, Chicago, Illinois, 2/26/2006]
He added, "These false Jews promote the filth of Hollywood that is seeding the American people and the people of the world and bringing you down in moral strength. . . Its the wicked Jews the false Jews that are promoting Lesbianism, homosexuality. Its wicked Jews, false Jews that make it a crime for you to preach the word of God, then they call you homophobic! [Saviours Day, Chicago, Illinois, 2/26/2006]
And Farrakhan blamed American Jews and Israel for the war in Iraq. These neocons and Zionists have manipulated Bush and the American government, Farrakhan exclaimed, and our boys and girls are dying in Iraq and in Afghanistan for the cause of Israel, not for the cause of America! Israel is the tail waggin the dog, which is America. [Saviours Day, Chicago, Illinois, 2/26/2006]
Yet despite these vile statements, Illinois Governor Blagojevich has been silent about his appointment of Farrakhans minister of protocol to the Governor's Commission on Discrimination and Hate Crimes.
Louis Farrakhan has been spewing hate and intolerance for years, and based on his Saviours' Day speech on Sunday, it is apparent that he has not changed his ways said RJC Chicago Chapter Chairman Michael Menis. It is just inconceivable and unacceptable that Governor Blagojevich would allow anyone associated with this man to continue to serve on his Commission on Discrimination and Hate Crimes.
The Governors commission has been formed to help eliminate hate crimes and discrimination wherever it exists, a spokeswoman for the Governor said. "If Governor Blagojevich is truly interested in eradicating racism, hate and bigotry, he should start by appointing people who believe in tolerance and diversity and not pander to those from organizations who espouse hate," Menis said.

Blagojevich says he didn't know about controversial appointment

When I first started reading this I was sure it was a parody. Who in their right mind would put this Hater on such a commission.
C'mon, this is a parody isn't it?
Strange, sounds like a direct attack on the Democratic party.
Sometimes, if you don't laugh, you'll cry.
The word "Democrat" comes to mind.
