Yet another one for the “They Say They’re Not Bigots, But…” file:
Following speeches from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Rep. Michele Bachmann, CPAC is hosting the panel “The Failure of Multiculturalism: How the pursuit of diversity is weakening the American Identity” with Peter Brimelow, the founder and head of VDARE.com.
VDARE is a White Nationalist website, run by Brimelow, which frequently publishes the works of anti-Semitic and racist writers and is named after Virginia Dare, who is believed to be the first child of English parents born in the Americas. Brimelow, an immigrant from Great Britain, expresses his fear of the loss of America’s white majority, blames non-white immigrants for social and economic problems and urges the Republican Party to give up on minority voters and focus on winning the white vote. He also said that a New York City subway is the same as an Immigration and Naturalization Service waiting room, “an underworld that is not just teeming but also almost entirely colored.”
Res ispa loquitor.
UPDATE: And guess what? Brimelow’s not the only white supremacist to be given an honored spot at CPAC. Robert Vandervoort, of ProEnglish and American Renaissance infamy, is there as well, cuddling up with the National Review‘s staff racist, John Derbyshire.

Sick is as sick does.
Fight them in the streets, ignore them in the media.
System’s gamed to frame them and ignore us.
The few are calling the shots, and that’s not how it should be.
Fight them in the streets, every day, every word, every horrid action. Object, call them out, in the work place, everywhere.
Be relentless.
This is how the masses win. IT’s gonna take a long time, if possible at all.
My sad take is that it all collapses of its own volition long before the masses rise up enough to force change upon it all.
Still, we either rail against the machine or we die with no dignity.
N we’re all gonna die. That’s beyond discussion.
Rccd PW, as always.
Spooky.
What gets me is that they banned Log Cabin Republicans and GOProud, the gay Republican groups, yet they’re OK with blatant racists.
Well, as I always say.
Most Republicans probably aren’t racists, but most racists are Republicans.
I have said it before, and I will say it again; the Republican party is the Klan without the sheets. Poverty makes people vulnerable. Due to vulnerability, poor racists have to wear sheets over their heads. If you are a rich racist, you are an upstanding Republican citizen. They are secure in their wealth to do and say as they wish. Actually, the KKK is bigger than it ever was. They are just called Republicans. For all the damage they do, the sub-group called the KKK are nice guys in comparison. They have the excuse of ignorance promoted by poverty, while Republicans are pure evil with no excuses for what they do.
Oh, yes. The Klan’s just the cannon fodder; the real powers were and are the persons in the Sovereignty Commissions and the White Citizens’ Councils (now collectively known as the Council of Conservative Citizens). The “Uptown Klan”, as Thurgood Marshall called them.
Oh, and get this — Google’s co-sponsoring this racism fest:
And just in case you thought that VDARE’s Brimelow’s CPAC appearance is a fluke, they’ve invited another one, Robert Vandervoort, to speak as well:
