I think Ann Coulter screwed up

In her new book, does Ann Coulter actually defend a white supremacist hate group, claiming they’ve been unfairly branded as “racist?”

Republican politicians who had given speeches to a conservative group, the Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC), were branded sympathizers of white supremacists because some of the directors of the CC had, decades earlier, been leaders of a segregationist group, the Citizen Councils of America, which were founded in 1954. There is no evidence on its web page that the modern incarnation of the CCC supports segregation, though its “Statement of Principles” offers that the organization opposes “forced integration” and “efforts to mix the races of mankind.” But mostly the principles refer to subjects such as a strong national defense, the right to keep and bear arms, the traditional family, and an “America First” trade policy. (LMAO @ "But mostly.")

Apart from some aggressive reporting on black-on-white crimes — the very crimes that are aggressively hidden by the establishment media — there is little on the CCC website suggesting that the group is a “thinly veiled white supremacist” organization, as the New York Times calls it in one of its more charitable descriptions.

Found it at Little Green Footballs:

The Klown went to the website. The Klown has to agree with the NYT ... "Full Blown Thinly veiled racist organization." Here's their "Statement of Principles." I also "perusaled" a few issues of their quarterly magazine and, to be fair, they are concerned about many of the same things as I but they're very heavy on race stuff ... decide for yourself. Thoughts?
