Potok: None of what I say is true, but I’ll say it anyway
In a CNN interview, Mark Potok tells CNN that even there’s no data to support his contention that violence against Islamic adherents is on the rise;
Surprisingly, he gives President Bush credit for tamping down anti-Islamic incidents in the years following the 9-11 attacks. But then he believes in Big Government solutions. Without saying President Obama’s name (that would be racist in Potok’s world), Potok blames the current administration for the few attacks he calls “antecdotal evidence” of widespread hate crimes committed against Muslims.
Yeah, one knifing by a liberal film student perpetrated on a cab driver is “evidence” of a rising hate crime incidents.
Meanwhile, the Daily Caller quotes Potok while he tries to blame the Tea Party groups for this “surge” in hate crimes;
“The ‘tea parties’ and similar groups that have sprung up in recent months cannot fairly be considered extremist groups, but they are shot through with rich veins of radical ideas, conspiracy theories and racism,” Mark Potok, director of the SPLC’s Intelligence Project, wrote in a piece titled “Rage On The Right: The Year In Hate And Extremism” from the group’s Spring 2010 edition of its Intelligence Report.
SPLC also sees a connection between the “paranoid” antigovernment ideas espoused by extremist militias, racist skinheads, and the ideas espoused by prominent Tea Partiers.
So the imagined hate crime surge is fueled by imagined connection to the Tea Parties. That’s some diligent research and unshakable evidence you have there, Markie.

He’s just seeding the weak minded with his tripe. When has the left ever needed proof? Gawdawfalo used the DHS report in several interviews, yet no one has retracted any of their claims after it was revealed that most all of the report came from SPLC’s “assessment”, which provided no proof and still never has. Potok is the worst source to go to for analysis.
What is that shit on his face? Has he been eating cotton balls and coughing up hairballs or something? It must cut down on his on hand oxygen given the off the wall stuff he keeps spewing. Another socialist.
I have no data to show that that man is a pedophile, but he sure looks like one.
SPLC is rife with racism within it’s own walls. I lived in Montgomery Alabama for 9 years and it is such an asinine backwards outfit that you cannot help but pity anyone associated with it. The local newspaper did a series of articles back when I lived there about how Morris Dees runs the place like his own personal plantation and how no minorities were in positions that held any serious authority. I do not know if things have changed all that much within the SPLC but Dees and company are nothing more than chicken littles who cry racism more often then Al Sharpton.
Dees and Potok…definitely two more on Spigot’s “10 Douche Nozzles I Will Sucker Punch If I Ever See Them In an Airport Bar” list.
I’ll take the Simple Assault rap…it would be worth it.
“how Morris Dees runs the place like his own personal plantation and how no minorities were in positions that held any serious authority”
