British Fascist Leader Echoes Rush Limbaugh
There’s a huge row going on in Britain over the leader of the fascist, white supremacist British National Party, Nick Griffin, appearing on the BBC’s venerable “Question Time” political analysis show. Now Griffin is gloating that his appearance has enabled the BNP to set a record in telephone donations: BNP: Thank you Auntie for giving us such a boost.
Here’s Griffin’s view of President Barack Obama:
Mr Griffin accused President Obama of being an “Afrocentric racist bigot” whose comments about the legacy of slavery would encourage black youths to attack white children.
And that, of course, is strikingly similar to the view of the patron saint of the right wing, Rush Limbaugh:
“Obama’s America: white kids getting beat up on school buses. You put your kids on a school bus, you expect safety, but in Obama’s America, white kids now get beat up, with the black kids cheering, ‘Yeah! Right on! Right on!’”
When it’s difficult to tell the difference between the statements of the leader of the BNP and the statements of Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh …
Houston, we have a problem.
