Well there are Christians, and there are Christian Identists. The Identists don’t advertise the Identity part, some Christians get fooled.

townhall.com was founded and, until recently, operated by the Heritage Foundation (hardly a hate group, outside the fever swamps of the looney left). They were recently bought by an evangelical publishing outfit called Salem Communications (not exactly a fly-by-night operation either).

I used to go there quite regularly for people like Dennis Prager, Thomas Sowell, Charles Krauthammer,… these and Dinesh D’Souza would all be very surprised to be “white Christian Identity” ;-) I essentially stopped going there because of two things: (a) their unwillingness to give Pat Pukecannon the boot; (b) finding alternative places to read everybody I was interested in.

Actually, Pukecannon is carried by Creators Syndicate, which (besides eminently readworthy people like Michael Barone) also carries looney-LEFT nutjob Robert Scheer.

As much as I despise Pukecannon, playing indiscriminate “six degrees” with him would net you not just most of the conservative blogosphere (Pukecannon is not a conservative by muy definition but a reactionary populist) but much of the mainstream media (via MSNBC —- and he also was on CNN for years).
