David Duke Calls The Republican Party"The Last Major Party Of White Redoubt"!
David Duke is the perfect example of why human beings are classified as animals!He has been profiled on the Anti-Defamation League's website as an extreme racist!So,isn't it ironic & ridiculous for him to brand Michael Steele a black racist? I am so glad that Keith Olbermann tells it like it is! David Duke is one of the worst "beings" that I have ever heard of! I can't attach human to being in his case.There really isn't anything human about him but his appearance. Let's just call him sub-human.Here's an excerpt of his profile:
"Yet his reversion to overt, as opposed to veiled, racism did not douse his political hopes. In December 1998, Duke announced that he would run for the Congressional seat being vacated by Robert L. Livingston, in Louisiana’s First Congressional District. Achieving this goal was not wholly implausible; Duke had carried this district in his campaigns for United States Senate and governor in 1990 and 1991. Once again, he positioned himself as an anti-government conservative who stood up for the little man against programs such as affirmative action, minority set-asides and welfare. And once again, Duke’s message seemed to hit a nerve among some frustrated white voters who were willing to overlook his past. He received one out of every five ballots cast in the district and placed third in the election. These results apparently validated his assertion that he would fly under the radar of public opinion research, which projected him winning a far smaller percentage of the vote. Indeed, despite the pre-election polling numbers, both mainstream G.O.P. and local business leaders feared a potential Duke victory. “We were sweating bullets,” said Ken Johnson, an aide to Representative W.J. Tauzin, the Republican dean of Louisiana’s Congressional delegation. On the other hand, Duke’s showing seemed to indicate that, while he could still stir contention and anxiety and had a reliable constituency, this constituency was modest and unlikely ever to expand. Moreover, Duke had increasingly come to be seen as both enamored with the publicity and money of campaigns and disinclined actually to win and serve.
Following his defeat, Duke stated that while he had no immediate plans to stage another political candidacy, he was “absolutely committed to spending the rest of my life as a spokesman for the rights of European Americans.” He turned to a strategy that several other racist organizations have also adopted, focusing on ethnic themes designed to appeal to alienated whites, especially minority crime rates, immigration and so-called “Confederate heritage” issues such as flying the Confederate flag on state property.
Now a self-styled “civil rights activist,” in January 2000, Duke announced the formation of a new organization, the National Organization for European American Rights. Aping contemporary civil rights groups, NOFEAR addressed “European American” concerns. “Just as African Americans have the NAACP and Mexican Americans have La Raza,” Duke said, “European-Americans now have the National Organization for European American Rights, to actively defend their rights and heritage in the United States.”
NOFEAR was intended to be an antidote to the alleged “massive discrimination” faced by whites from the nation’s growing population of minorities. According to Duke, “European Americans face a situation where we’re going to be outnumbered and outvoted in our own country.” Low birthrates, interracial marriages and immigration rates were cited by Duke as key factors reducing the white share of the population. The NOFEAR home pages on the davidduke.com Web site maintain that “the civil rights of European Americans are being violated by affirmative action, forced integration and anti-European immigration policies.…We face cultural discrimination in the media and education.…An example is the media hate crime hysteria that highlights and publicizes any white crime against minorities.”
At the launching of NOFEAR, Duke told reporters at the National Press Club that the alleged ongoing destruction of white people was a “genocide.” In a January 26, 2000, letter to the Shreveport Times rebutting a critical editorial, Duke described European Americans as “internally displaced people” entitled to the same consideration as refugees. In June 2001, threatened by a trademark lawsuit, Duke renamed his group the European-American Rights Organization.
Duke repeatedly stresses the need for white Southerners and European Americans generally to organize to preserve their rights and heritage. “These minority activists are not only after Southern heritage,” he warns, “Eventually they plan to erase the heritage and history of European Americans in the United States and ... [we plan] to stop them.” As evidence, Duke has cited black school board members in New Orleans who called George Washington an “immoral example” for children and voted to remove his name from a public school, as well as the Richmond, Virginia, City Council that removed a mural of General Robert E. Lee from a flood wall in 1999."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the whole profile here:http://www.adl.org/Learn/Ext_US/duke.asp
