I am doing a report and it will accumulate over time, it's on mu special focus. I would appreciate your feedback. Do you like it? How's the format and is it believable? This is from my website.
Anti-CNP (groups.yahoo.com/group/anti_cnp)
Although the CNP itself is not associated with any of these acts, their friends are, and that should give us an idea of what the CNP is truly like. I will be measuring all acts of Horrible, Evil, Intolerant, Atrocious, Racist, and Illegal deeds by these people.
1.A - Christian Coalition (founder a CNP member)
1.B - Pat Robertson (CNP member)
2 - Jerry Falwell (CNP member)
3.A - Free Congress Foundation (founder a CNP member)
3.B - Paul Weyrich (CNP member)
3.C - Bill Lind (Director of Cultural Conservatism, affiliated with FCF)
3.D - Heritage Foundation - Founded by Weyrich
4 - Oliver North (CNP member)
5 - Tom DeLay
1.A - Christian Coalition
Racism - In February of 2001, ten black employees filed a racial discrimination suit against the organization. Alleging that they were treated with Jim
Crow-style segregationist rules, the black employees also stated in their lawsuit that the Christian Coalition’s director was “uncomfortable” when the black employees
joined company-sponsored prayer sessions and eventually stopped inviting them. In March, two more black employees and a white employee filed discrimination charges against
the organization. The white employee claims he was fired by the evangelical organization when he refused the director’s request to spy on the black employees who
had filed the lawsuit.

"they are talkative and waste too much time in the kitchen." - Roberta Combs, referring to African Americans.
Intolerance - After the Army of God bombed bars, it took 5 days for the Christian Coalition to denounce the acts of terrorism, however during this time they were still
selling'Legislating Immorality' a book which calls for the death penalty for people who live Alternative Lifestyles
(www.religioustolerance.org/hom_0027.htm)
Illegal Activities - The Christian Coalition's principal "contribution" to electoral politics is the distribution of election-eve voters guides. Nominally nonpartisan but
plainly directive, the guides outline the candidates' positions on a variety of issues. The Coalition's descriptions, however, are often manipulative. They describe a supporter of
the National Endowment for the Arts, for example, as an proponent of "tax-funded obscene art." Many candidates refuse to respond to the questionnaires for fear of distortion,
however the group filled it in for them by reviewing voting records. These “non-partisan” voter guides eventually led to the group losing its tax-exempt status. The
Federal Election Commission's charged that the Christian Coalition endorsed Republican candidates with its voter guides in the 1990 and 1992 elections and illegally coordinated
its activities with
the Bush reelection campaign.

Anthony Verdugo, local chairman of the conservative religious group(Christian Coaltion) and a board member of Take Back Miami-Dade, was charged with one count
of falsely swearing that he had witnessed someone sign a petition in favor of the referendum. Verdugo, arrested in Miami-Dade by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, could
face up to five years in prison if convicted of the third-degree felony charge. A 76-year-old notary and petition-drive volunteer was also arrested Friday. Ralph Patterson, who lives in Southwest Miami-Dade, is charged with unlawful use of a notary commission.
1.B - Pat Robertson
Atrocities - Pat Robertson supported Charles Taylor, built diamond mines in Liberia, defended him from accusations, and said the Mass Murderer should not have to step down.
Robertson was also allied with Rios Montt, a dictator who killed 60,000 Mayans and he was also friends with Frederick Chiluba who killed Political Opponents amd established a Christian Theocracy in Zambia.
P.S. - It is now known that al Qaeda received plenty of money from diamonds mined from Liberia (Robertson's involvement in this is not known)
Racism - Defense of Apartheid "I think 'one man, one vote,' just unrestricted democracy, would not be wise. There needs to be some kind of protection for the minority which the white people represent now, a minority, and they need and have a right to demand a protection of their rights." -Pat Robertson, "The 700 Club," 3/18/92 (One should note however, that Indians which were an even smaller minority than whites were also the victims of Apartheid)
Robertson defended Bush for speaking at Bob Jones University. (The same university which banned interracial dating, one should also note that Bob Jones III is a CNP member too)
Anti-Female (and incorrect) - "The key in terms of mental ability is chess. There's never been a woman Grand Master chess player. Once you get one, then I'll buy some of the feminism..." (According to the Chess Federation of the U.S. there were already two women Grand Masters at that time, both from Georgia. Since Robertson's gaffe, three more women became Grand Masters)
Intolerance - "Adolf Hitler was bad, but what the Muslims want to do to the Jews is worse." (Robertson has no right to speak for all Muslims, I personally know a Muslim who has a Jewish relative she loves very much)
Illegal Activities - Robertson received illegal gifts in his campaign in 1984.

Robertson has also been connected to soft money scandals 'Chinagate'
Oppression Award - "When I said during my presidential bid that I would only bring Christians and Jews into the government, I hit a firestorm." - from Pat Robertson's "The New World Order," page 218 (He hit a well deserved firestorm because if he were elected and he would only bring Christians and Jews into the government he would be in breach of the Constitution)
Paranoia Award - "Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It is the same thing." - Pat Robertson, 1993 interview with Molly Ivins (do you see any Christians having to wear stars on their sleeves? Do you see any Christians being forced into boxcars?)
Looking at Pat Robertson's record of helping Charles Taylor, who helped terrorists, his record with illegal gifts and soft money scandals, why does it seem as though Pat Robertson has the ability to avoid Criminal investigations?
2 - Jerry Falwell
Intolerance Award - "If you're not a born-again Christian, you're a failure as a human being."
(A possible translation: "If you're not a born-again Christian in my Church giving me money, you're a failure as a human being")
3.A - Free Congress Foundation
(For all info check
http://www.politicalamazon.com/fcf.html, too much to list here) Actions are but not limited to Intolerance, Racism, and Illegal Activities and like Robertson connections to Mass Murderers but this time it is Pinochet and SS member Laszlo Pasztor
3.B - Paul Weyrich
Racism - Weyrich and Richard Viguerie (another CNP member) are tied with the AIP, a party which has KKK elements
Weyrich himself, in his book, 'The New Right Papers', opposed government efforts to end segregation
Heritage Foundation (Weyrich founded it) and FCF Racists:
Roger Pearson - Heritage Foundation - Avid Racist
Ben Blackburn - Heritage Foundation - Advocate of literacy tests for voting
James McClellan - FCF conferences - Associate of Pearson and sought to dismantle civil rights protections
Intolerance - Since the tragedy of 9/11, FCF has published many anti-Islamic papers and essays, “This hard-hitting new paper dissects and devastates the notion that Islam is a ‘peaceful, tolerant’ religion. It isn't and it never has been. Learn why and how Islam is making war on Christians everywhere- and what the West needs to do in response.”
(

(Islam is NOT a monolith, I am greatly concerned about the FCF becuase of their strategies.Why am I concerned? Muslims for the most part think issue-wise just like Christians. Causing a rift in the voter base would seem suicidal for elections. This is evidence that the FCF is either a Hate group or has a Psychotic agenda. The FCF are showing that they are actually quite malevolent. I just hope when Muslims vote they remember that the FCF supports Bush.)
3.C - Bill Lind (Director of Center for Cultural Conservatism in the FCF)
Anti-Semitism - Lind appeared at a Washington conference of Holocaust deniers and neo-Nazis, blaming Jewish people of the Frankfurt School for the Crime of... Political Correctness
Intolerance - Lind helped Weyrich write the Anti-Islamic papers (Apparently because Weyrich was unable to write a Hate paper by himself so he got Lind to help him because he was an expert in the field of hatred. My mistake, Weyrich's field is the hatred of Racial minorities)
While many average Americans recognize American Muslims as a dangerous fifth column, the multiculturalist elite demands a ‘tolerance of diversity’ that Islam itself does not know. - “Multiculturalism Reigns Over the West,” by William Lind, Insight Magazine, 12/31/01
3.D - Heritage Foundation
Anti-Earth - The Heritage Foundation opposes Earth Day
4 - Oliver North
Convict - North was convicted in 1989 of three federal crimes: aiding in the obstruction of Congress, accepting illegal gratuities and destroying documents related to arms sales to Iran to finance the contra war. He was fined $150,000 and sentenced to 1,200 hours of community service.
(North however took the fall for the entire administration, believe it or not, Paul Weyrich and even Pat Robertson can be implicated in the Contra scandal. Perhaps it should have been those two convicted and instead of community service, they would have been cell mates)
5 - Tom DeLay
Illegal Activities - Prosecutors are examining, in part, whether corporate contributions made to Texans for a Republican Majority, a political action committee formed in 2001 by DeLay, ultimately went to GOP state House candidates. That would be a violation of Texas campaign finance laws.
