Politics: Racist, Bigot, Blah Blah Blah
Not that anyone thought it would, but pressure from people (myself included) who think Daniel Pipes is a racist didn't stop Bush from idiotically naming him to the board of the US Institute for Peace.
Pretty cold thing to reward racism on the week of the 40th anniversary of Dr. King's March on Washington, though.
Dr. King said, "I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality." In the same speech, accepting the Nobel Prize for peace, he said, "I believe that even amid today's mortar bursts and whining bullets, there is still hope for a brighter tomorrow."
Daniel Pipes said, "I worry very much from the Jewish point of view that the presence, and increased stature, and affluence, and enfranchisement of American Muslims...will present true dangers to American Jews."
