Looks like Minister Nutjob is Bloviating Again.

Guess he got bored whining about the conspiracy of the government blowing up the levees in New Orleans, so he's on to something else.

America's very own Islamic Fundamentalist.....how nice

Psycho Farrakhan, samo samo. Hates Jews, hates gays, hates Black people who don't agree with him...he was saying this same crapola back in 1976, in 1986, in 1996...so what is new about his hateful, anti-Semitic, anti-gay nonsense and why are you even giving him the time of day?

What about the anti-gay psycho fanatics like James Dobson to whom our newest Supreme Court justice Samuel Alito is writing valentines and pledges? Farrakhan doesn't have an ounce of power, thank God (or Allah or whomever) and won't anytime soon. (EVER, I hope.) But you were defending Alito's love letter to anti-gay fanatic Dobson, weren't you?

I'm surprised, no seriously, this is my surprised face I swear.

Ah, ft, always trying to go off on some unrelated tangent. I already corrected your usual falsehoods in the Alito thread. Really now, you had no leg on which to stand and looked rather foolish now that your comments about Alito's thank-you notes were shot to hell by a SCOTUS spokesman, the NYT, and the Wash. Post.

But I digress.

No love on this \"hate\" panel.

Just what the hell is a "hate" panel anyway? Stupid.

louis f. is one scary bastard. If you criticise him on the mainstream media you are called a racist. The nation of Islam is a cult. Not connected with real Islam. Have any of you people read the book ZEBRA about the nation of Islam serial killings in the sixties in the Bay area. They killed several white people and one Palestinian. Raped and killed. Cut one young 20 year old boy into little pieces and put him into a garbage bag. Louis F. is a racist and homophobe whose rhetoric could provoke hate crimes against glbt and white Jews. And for his information their are Jews of all colors. I know black Ethiopian and black native south African Jews. There are even Thai Jews who are just as authentic as Ashkenazy and Sephardi.

He isn't dead yet? I thought cancer would have caught up to Farrakhan by now.

One of my law school professors had a great saying: "Sometimes social change comes one funeral at a time."

It's a little crass, and I'm not sure if he originated the saying. But it's totally appropriate for people like Farrakhan.

Edited to add: for what its worth, the title of the thread is a little misleading. Farrakhan has at least softened his stance against gays and lesbians, as witnessed by his lip service inclusion of gays and lesbians in his recent Million Man March sequel.

Farrakhan may be an a**hole, but his power and influence are tiny compard to Dobson, Falwell et al who have access to the highest levels of government (and hate Jews, gays, lesbians, women and a few other groups).

Are you kidding? If he's anything like Pat Robertson, Falwell loves Jews, except when they make peace deals with Palestinians.

Seriously though, I don't understand the point of this thread--it just gives attention to a man with waning significance, and we all know Farrakhan's stance on these issues so there isn't any educational value here.

On the other hand, Dobson and Focus on the Family have me worried. I'm familiar enough with my inner bourgeois tendencies to know that I might want a partner, kids, and a white picket fence in the suburbs, but I don't think that's the kind of family Dobson will let me focus on. :confused:

Well, his comments about Jews and gays and lesbians came a few days ago, much more recent than the "Million" Man March. He only "softens" his stance when he gets criticized for it, which isn't that often it seems.
