		<description>Adam,  

His main thrust is tribalism.  Iraq is the main example, but ethnonationalism is increasing all over the world.  Except for one group:  whites.  I wish people of European descent would also act in their own self interest.  We are losing out.  Every 10-20 years, a typical white family packs up and moves further out from a city to escape multiculturalism and crime.  We are marginalized by all of this pandering to non-white minorities in all of our institutions via affirmative action, non-stop diversity and sensitivity training and promoting every month as a month dedicated to some ethnic group, as my company does.  If immigration isn&#039;t slowed down, we will soon be in the minority. And when we are, none of these programs for non-whites will go away, but will probably become permanent.   With democracy, we won&#039;t be able to resist peacefully.</description>

		<description>Planes may not have been provided to Sean, but report shows that either Sean&#039;s family members or Freedom Alliance staff used planes. Regardless, it seems criminal that less than 4% of revenues go the stated purpose of the charity.</description>

		<description>I think there is credence in what she says since, at the very least she may be biting the hand that feeds her (she is on Fox News pretty regularly), and that does take some courage.
That being said, her remarks about the Paul&#039;s are completely out of place and without merit. It is though she felt she needed some kind of cover (&quot;Hannity&#039;s a fraud, but that doesn&#039;t mean I&#039;m a fan of that wingnut Ron Paul!&quot;)
What is also unfortunate is that she fails to recognize one of the ironies of her remarks: If we had just listened to Dr. Paul 7 years ago, we wouldn&#039;t have to read tragic descriptions of soldiers in Basra losing limbs and eyes, and Insannity wouldn&#039;t have a cover for this (allegedly) bogus charity.
Peace be with you.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Freedom Alliance’s press release today stated categorically that they have “never provided planes, hotels, cars, limos, or anything else to Sean [Hannity] … to be clear Sean pays for all his own transportation, hotels, and all related expenses for himself and his family and friends and staff.” &lt;b&gt;We are satisfied that this is true.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

That&#039;s some damn fine investimigating.</description>

		<description>This is almost as much fun as midget wrestling was before taken off TV, and just as edifying.  Debbie Schlussel vs Sean Hannity, a match of equals.  From the little analysis I&#039;ve done, the most that can be said is that Freedom Alliance is top heavy with administrative costs.  This is an old story with non-profits.  My guess is that if you are raising money through concerts, your costs are going to be a lot higher than would be the case for a pure direct mail outfit.

Sean, you have a real point about Conservatives Inc., but Schlussel is a weak reed to hang an argument on.  If the Freedom Alliance is truly a scam it will come out via a painstaking analysis of the records.  All movements become rackets eventually.  I&#039;m more interested in how little the conservative base ever got out of our ours.

It would also be interesting to understand what motivates Schlussel.  Her usual obsession is finding Muslims and anti-semites under the bed.  Hannity and FOX are about as pro-Israel as it is possible to be.  So what brings the claws out?

In the mean time it will be amusing to watch these two titans of conservative communications battle it out like true champions.  Too bad they don&#039;t wear costumes like the midgets of old.</description>
