<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>The list is as long as my arm. Ever heard
of the quota system in college admissions, affirmative racism (action), hate
crime laws only available to minorities or deviants? I would argue that
colored's perpetrate more hate crimes on whites than vice versa--(John Perazzo
wrote an excellent book on this--something about the myths of race relations).
Liberals want a redistribution of wealth because the oppressed (a group) can
never succeed. Minorities and other groups are encouraged to start/join
clubs supporting their diversity (the racists clubs or La Raza and
MECHA are prime examples)... Imagine me starting a American Heritage club on WSU
campus? I'd venture to say that funding would not be forthcoming. How about
Students of Color hogwash at the University? How abouts the other students (not
of color?).. I'm flat sick of it. Groups are being granted special status on the
mere merit of skin color or disgusting perversions.. Sorry, my pidgin is
kickin' in--it seems to help the "others" get special treatment. Special
treatmet for groups is pervasive..</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>I'm glad to see you're reading
material from quality web sites. Horowitz is not my hero, but a great
visionary and thinker. He makes some valid points in the article; but, in my
estimation, he fails to stress the importance of our
Constitutionally-grounded individual rights in a society that is
increasingly demanding group rights. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>True conservatives advocate equal
rights for all; liberals want special privileges for every diversity or
enclave in the States. In my estimation, he (Horowitz) was a bit over
the line in his dismissal of the KKK analogy. The KKK is somebody--even
though their intentions/actions are racially-driven. However, one could
categorize both these groups' agendas as harmful, detrimental to society.
(Note, I don't advocate violence towards any person or any group--or kicking
someone in the groin for that matter. )</FONT></DIV>

BUNNY IN THEIR SIGHTS<BR><BR>Thank you, Ed. In the spirit of

Horowitz. Actually, I think everyone<BR>should read this
article. I found it informative, and Horowitz is<BR>definitely not

Before a Fall<BR><BR>In four Gospels - including the Sermon on the Mount
- Jesus neglected<BR>to mention the subject of homosexuality. But
that hasn't stopped a<BR>handful of self-appointed leaders of the
so-called Religious Right<BR>from deciding that it is an issue worth the
presidency of the United<BR>States. In what the Washington Times described
as a "stormy session"<BR>last week, the Rev. Lou Sheldon, Paul Weyrich,
Gary Bauer and eight<BR>other "social conservatives" read the riot act to
RNC chairman Marc<BR>Racicot for meeting with the "Human Rights Campaign,"
a group<BR>promoting legal protections for homosexuals. This indiscretion,
they<BR>said, "could put Bush's entire re-election campaign in
jeopardy."<BR><BR>According to the Times' report by Ralph Hallow, the RNC
chairman<BR>defended himself by saying, "You people don't want me to meet
with<BR>other folks, but I meet with anybody and everybody." To this
Gary<BR>Bauer retorted, "That can't be true because you surely would not
meet<BR>with the leaders of the Ku Klux Klan."<BR><BR>Nice analogy Gary.
Way to love thy neighbor.<BR><BR>This demand to quarantine a political
enemy might have had more<BR>credibility if the target the Campaign for
Human Rights -- were<BR>busily burning crosses on social conservatives'
lawns. But they<BR>aren't. Moreover, the fact that it is, after all,
crosses the Ku Klux<BR>Klan burns, might suggest a little more humility on
the part of<BR>Christians addressing these issues. Just before the
launching of the<BR>2000 presidential campaign, George Bush himself was
asked about<BR>similarly mean-spirited Republican attacks. His response
was that<BR>politicians like him weren't elected to pontificate about
other<BR>people's morals and that his own faith admonished him to take the
beam<BR>out of his own eye before obsessing over the mote in someone
else's.<BR><BR>The real issue here is tolerance of differences in a
pluralistic<BR>society. Tolerance is different from approval, but it is
also<BR>different from stigmatizing and shunning those with whom we
disagree.<BR><BR>I say this as someone who is well aware that Christians
are themselves<BR>a persecuted community in liberal America, and as one
who has stood up<BR>for the rights of Christians like Paul Weyrich and
Gary Bauer to have<BR>their views, even when I have not agreed with some
of their agendas.<BR>Not long ago, I went out on a public limb to defend
Paul Weyrich when<BR>he was under attack by the Washington Post and other
predictable<BR>sources for a remark he had made that was (reasonably)
construed as<BR>anti-Semitic. I defended Weyrich because I have known him
to be a<BR>decent man without malice towards Jews and I did not want to
see him<BR>condemned for a careless remark. I defended him in order to
protest<BR>the way in which we have become a less tolerant and more
mean-spirited<BR>culture than we were.<BR><BR>I have this to say to Paul:
A delegation to the chairman of the RNC to<BR>demand that he have no
dialogue with the members of an organization<BR>for human rights is itself
intolerant, and serves neither your ends<BR>nor ours. You told Racicot,
"if the perception is out there that the<BR>party has accepted the
homosexual agenda, the leaders of the<BR>pro-family community will be
unable to help turn out the pro-family<BR>voters. It won't matter what we
say; people will leave in droves."<BR><BR>This is disingenuous, since you
are a community leader and share the<BR>attitude you describe. In other
words, what you are really saying is<BR>that if the mere perception is
that the Republican Party has accepted<BR>the "homosexual agenda," you
will tell your followers to defect with<BR>the disastrous consequences
that may follow. As a fellow conservative,<BR>I do not understand how in
good conscience you can do this. Are you<BR>prepared to have President
Howard Dean or President John Kerry preside<BR>over our nation's security?
Do you think a liberal in the White House<BR>is going to advance the
agendas of social conservatives? What can you<BR>be thinking?<BR><BR>In
the second place, the very term "homosexual agenda," is an<BR>expression
of intolerance as well. Since when do all homosexuals think<BR>alike? In
fact, thirty percent of the gay population voted Republican<BR>in the last
presidential election. This is a greater percentage than<BR>blacks,
Hispanics or Jews. Were these homosexuals simply deluded into<BR>thinking
that George Bush shared their agendas? Or do they perhaps<BR>have agendas
that are as complex, diverse and separable from their<BR>sexuality as
women, gun owners or Christians, for that matter?<BR><BR>In your confusion
on these matters, you have fallen into the trap set<BR>for you by your
enemies on the left. It is the left that insists its<BR>radical agendas
are the agendas of blacks and women and gays. Are you<BR>ready to make
this concession -- that the left speaks for these<BR>groups, for
minorities and "the oppressed?" Isn't it the heart of the<BR>conservative
argument that liberalism (or, as I would call it,<BR>leftism) is bad
doctrine for all humanity, not just white Christian<BR>males?<BR><BR>If
the President's party or conservatism itself -- is to prevail in<BR>the
political wars, it must address the concerns of all Americans and<BR>seek
to win their hearts and minds. It is conservative values that<BR>forge our
community and create our coalition, and neither you nor<BR>anyone else has
- or should have - a monopoly in determining what<BR>those values
are.</BLOCKQUOTE>_____________________________________________________<BR>List
