Interesting how much credence the left is giving the hate organization SPLC. Over at the leftwing blog, TPM Muckracker (would be nice if they got my name right, but why split hairs?):
Pam Geller On 'Hate Group' Label: 'A Badge of Honor'
Pamela Geller is pretty worked up about the Southern Poverty Law Center's says "a slam from the SPLC is a badge of honor."
Story continues below advertisementStop Islamization of America was included as a hate group in the SPLC's Spring 2011 "Intelligence Report." The 9/11 Christian Center at Ground Zero group also made the list. The SPLC considers both groups "anti-Muslim."
On her blog last Friday, Geller wrote that the SPLC had "slandered our human rights organization," and called the SPLC a "subversive organization." On Saturday, in a post titled "Southern Poverty Law Fraud Center," Geller posted pictures of what she said is SPLC founder Morris Dees' posh Montgomery home, as well as what she said are his divorce papers.
In a press release reacting to the news, Geller defended her group and further bashed the SPLC.
"It's outrageous that the SPLC designates a group dedicated to protecting the freedom of speech, the freedom of conscience, and legal equality for all Americans as a 'hate group,'" she said. "The SPLC, instead of standing for those freedoms, is carrying water for the real haters, the real neo-Nazi Jew-haters: the forces of Islamic supremacism and jihad. The SPLC doesn't even have a category for Islamic jihadi groups. The greatest threat facing our nation, our people, our world, and they are shilling for them."
Geller told TPM in an email that Stop Islamization of America's parent group, the American Freedom Defense Initiative, has decided to create a kind of counter to the SPLC's list: an annual list of groups that are "Threats to Freedom."
"The SPLC and CAIR [Council on American-Islamic Relations] will almost certainly make the initial listing, but not because they have demonized our human rights organization," Geller wrote. "This is by no means the first time that these organizations have set themselves up in opposition to individuals and groups like ours that are dedicated only to defending the freedom of speech and legal equality for all citizens. They need to be exposed, and we are going to expose them."
Geller said she found out about the hate group designation in a press release sent out by CAIR, "which was crowing over the aid the useful idiots of the SPLC were giving to the Islamic supremacist cause."
When asked about her writing in 2009 that the SPLC "has outlived its usefulness," Geller granted that the SPLC's past efforts against the KKK were "noble." But she dismissed the group's current activities.
"Certainly to fight against the KKK was a noble cause," she said. "But now the SPLC is just a cash cow for the clueless and/or complicit tools of Islamic supremacism on the Left. The SPLC is reviled in civil rights circles for its notorious reputation. It does little to no work, while its officials enriching themselves by raising huge amounts from unsuspecting donors."
Since the SPLC announced the designation, Geller says she and her group have received an "outpouring of support from lovers of freedom."
"And SIOA on Facebook has received a hundred new requests to join," Geller added.

Let’s see if I can get this straight. SPLC writes about Geller, Geller writes about SPLC; TPM writes about Geller, Geller writes about TPM.
What’s next? How about TPM writing about SPLC? No way, José. Can not happen.

If SPLC quotes you and links your website they do what you do. I guess it’s OK to hate hate?
I’d like to know what SPLC thinks of Quaradawi’s recent statements made about the Jews and Hitler. Here you have an actual person who respects Hitler (not someone who criticizes a lot of leftists, Islamists, and fellow travellers from a blog) and leads millions of people around the world (though he also has a blog).
I said years ago that quoting Muslims quoting the Quran would soon be a hate crime. I hate being right all the time.

Right. What idiot decided for us all that hatred, in and of itself, is wrong? Was it the same idiot who decided that anger is never the correct emotional response?

Message to hate group SPLC:
Comments allowed by Ms. Geller in no way imply approval.
Inclusion does NOT imply approval.
Exclusion DOES NOT imply disapproval.
The accursed Jew Lover (half pig/half ape), thinks SPLC picked the wrong “fight” this time.

Whenever an American loves, they also hates its enemy.
My children are endangered by poor or worse teachers.
I love my children and hate poor or worse teachers.
Everyone makes mistakes. But, I hate those who make a living
and a career out of being a leech. Thieves, liars, killers,
intruders. Oppressors. Do not deserve respect. All cannibals of
their fellow-man.
Judgement is coming…
No apologies.
