- hawkeye17, on 10/29/2007, -28/+271More proof that there are about 20% of all Americans that are Right Wing idiots who have totally lost their minds since 9/11. Now "colleges and universities" are "dangerous" to this nation??! I mean....what the *****??!
- Insightful, on 11/06/2007, -24/+181I am proud to say I a a member of more than one of those dangerous organizations. We should tried to get Digg on this list too!
- inactive, on 10/27/2007, -14/+118Isn't it ironic (and painfully obvious) how real hate groups are the first to scream 'haters!'? It's a typical tactic of these right wing loons... just like O'Rally, Hannity and Limpdick all telling their flocks how these same organizations on this list (except for FRC) are "communists", Nazis, hate mongers, un-American, etc, when in fact that's exactly what they are and it's exactly the type of country they want YOU to live in. It's their way or the highway and if your don't agree, you're not a real American. That's also the 25% who still support the idiot in chief btw. THEY are the minority.

- Marc39, on 10/26/2007, -8/+862) Universities and Colleges
That's quite the broad brush they paint with, huh. - yakimushi, on 10/27/2007, -12/+90Don't you know that independant though is bad for your health? Now go read your Bible and be a good little American.
/sarcasm (though I would hope that was evident) - inactive, on 10/26/2007, -12/+88Wow they claim a website that reports on what is happening in the world as dangerous. Very telling of our times.
- nblsavage, on 10/27/2007, -9/+82the uneducated are more easily swayed by religion.
- postingbh, on 10/26/2007, -14/+83These people label any non-neocon as part of the "far left". Of course, with +70% of Americans wanting out of Iraq, I guess that makes most of us far left liberal anti-patriotic defeatists. Or just reasonable people. As Dennis Kucinich says, left is the new middle.
- kleric, on 10/26/2007, -4/+66This is the one that stuck out to me too.
God forbid we have an educated populace. - SheilaNoya, on 10/27/2007, -6/+5870% of American citizens are "anti-American? Our schools are our enemies because they won't teach our children that the earth is only 6,000 years old and that Jesus was a blonde haired white guy from Oklahoma who loves America, but wants us to bomb everyone else?
WOW - Awl uv that homeskooling shur maid sum peepul stoopid. - shellacked, on 10/29/2007, -3/+49I love how Universities and Colleges made #2 in their list of "most dangerous organizations."
Their contempt for higher education speaks volumes about the value of them and their list. - themouth, on 10/26/2007, -3/+49Thanks for providing hawkeye17 with an example
- DavidYeah, on 10/27/2007, -4/+49Better yet, the #1 entry, MediaMatters.org simply reports conservative comments in the media. Apparently nothing is more shameful than having to read your own comments with the lies, spin, and bigotry taken to task on a daily basis.
- nblsavage, on 10/26/2007, -3/+48I said the uneducated were more easily swayed...that isn't the same thing as saying that the educated can't be religious.
- MasterThief117, on 11/12/2007, -1/+44The only reason why universities and colleges are on the list is because they are intimidated by intelligence.
- natural_smurf, on 10/28/2007, -4/+44LOL "Universities and Colleges"
i guess if you're a fascist, an educated electorate is pretty dangerous. - JoeVet, on 10/27/2007, -2/+41Knowledge is very dangerous to groups like Family Security Matters.
- BizzaroRob, on 10/27/2007, -1/+37When Universities and Colleges are your enemy, I don't even want to know who your friends are.
- nblsavage, on 11/11/2007, -1/+33"If President Bush copied Julius Caesar by ordering his army to empty Iraq of Arabs and repopulate the country with Americans, he would achieve immediate results: popularity with his military; enrichment of America by converting an Arabian Iraq into an American Iraq (therefore turning it from a liability to an asset); and boost American prestiege while terrifying American enemies."
Good lord....this is some scary, scary thinking. - saifatlast, on 10/29/2007, -5/+35You haven't been to college, have you?
- NoUse, on 10/26/2007, -1/+30The religious right didn't go nuts when the ACLU filed suit fighting for their right to have baptisms on public land:
http://www.aclu.org/religion/discrim/16230prs20040 ... - vroom101, on 10/26/2007, -4/+32Family Security Matters is the group that published "Conquering the Drawbacks of Democracy", an eye-opening article by Contributing Editor Philip Atkinson: http://google.com/search?q=cache:cnnnSRimWmcJ:www. ...
Via: http://www.digg.com/politics/Conquering_the_Drawba ... - howdareyou, on 10/26/2007, -3/+29I take great offense that "Family Security Matters" shares an acronym with my Lord the Flying Spaghetti Monster. How dare they use my Lords name in vain!
- markp93, on 10/26/2007, -2/+24I love #2. Are they against education or something?
- Mononuclear, on 10/26/2007, -5/+26Lets ban all universities and colleges that promote throught!!!
- CannedMango, on 10/26/2007, -1/+22Don't you get it man? People who "think for themselves" hate America.
- facereplacer, on 10/27/2007, -1/+222) Universities and Colleges
I would think they'd be number one... done correctly, education is the number one threat to whatever it takes to care about what Family Security Matters has to say. - Zreitan, on 10/27/2007, -1/+22RAmen, FSM is the Cult of the Flying Spaghetti Monster
- minorthreat, on 11/12/2007, -7/+27Universities and colleges are places where you learn rational and logical thinking skills. They whine they are to liberal. The rational thinking liberals who understand logic seems to upset the neocons. I used to not think this way, but the older I have gotten, I honestly believe the US would be a much better place if we got rid of all the neo-cons. Then we could debate solutions for our problems rather than having to debate the problem itself.
- RollFizzlebeef, on 10/27/2007, -3/+23Media Matters is #1 because they quote what the right-wing noise machine says exactly and in context.
We just can't have that sort of thing in America. - TheHydrogens, on 10/28/2007, -4/+23I can't seem to look at an organization called FSM and not think of the Flying Spaghetti Monster....
- hedgeland, on 11/12/2007, -4/+22And the ACLU, of which I am a card carrying member, will defend their right to say that the ACLU is one of the 10 most dangerous organizations in America. God I hate Republicans. And God hates Republicans too.
- VoteForDummies, on 10/26/2007, -1/+19Welp, time to drop out of college. And here I was, thinking an education would be BENEFICIAL. Stupid me and my stupid free thinking.
- therealrico, on 10/26/2007, -5/+23I highly suggest you click the link and go read the entire article. At least they attack some conservaitve groups as well, instead of just focusing on the liberal side.
My personal favorite, was what was said about CODEpink. We gotta stop those dangerous feminists who want to end war, and give everyone healthcare!!! - dvdrtrgn, on 10/26/2007, -9/+27Religion requires less thought.
- inactive, on 10/26/2007, -2/+20Well, I'm on FMS's website trying to open the "contact us" page and it displays an error message. Apparently I'm not the only one trying to send a note.
- ndavisAA, on 10/26/2007, -1/+19This list reminded me i wanted to join the ACLU.
- nblsavage, on 10/26/2007, -4/+21Valid point masterm1nd. I agree that everyone should examine where they get their information from. So that would include Fox News, LittleGreenFootballs and Family Security Matters as well.
- mrjit, on 10/26/2007, -2/+19That wasn't a spelling correction, since you're "correcting" people.
- nblsavage, on 10/27/2007, -0/+16Actually, yes. What we did to the native americans was an atrocity. Who's to say their culture wouldn't have been as good as or better than ours? But that is history and we can't do anything about that.
- sdigroup, on 10/26/2007, -0/+16American fore-fathers are rolling in their grave....
- rendereduseless, on 10/26/2007, -2/+16ignorance is bliss
- 10lbhammer, on 11/04/2007, -3/+17twinky: I call *****, man. maybe you've never been past high school, but when I was at university it was all *about* teaching differing viewpoints. example: if you want to learn about how good christianityjudaism/islam is for your soul, go to church/temple/mosque. if you want to learn the objective truth about how religion works in our society, go take a comparative religion course...
- rangermatt, on 10/27/2007, -0/+14The funny thing about this list is that it actually helps all these organizations. I went and took a look at some of these sites, and actually bookmarked a couple. If these organizations are powerful and influential enough to piss off FSM, they just might be worth visiting regularly.
Thanks, FSM! - DavidYeah, on 10/26/2007, -1/+15I wonder if they know that Center for American Progress and ThinkProgress are parts of the same organization.
- gropo, on 10/26/2007, -5/+18Forums for reasoned arguments with egalitarian treatment of opposing viewpoints is just askin' fer trouble.
You're either with our official right-wing marching orders or you're against us. America, ***** yeah. - Elranzer, on 10/26/2007, -3/+16According to Christian Conservatives™ both the Muslims and liberals are all terrorists.
- 5urr3al5am, on 11/02/2007, -7/+20They are listed because they represent some of the most liberal and secular progressive groups out there...
- Trocisp, on 11/12/2007, -1/+14Really? Are they anti american because they're communists, or are they communists and anti american separately of each other?
By the way, it was founded by someone who... wanted to ensure everyone has civil rights, not by an "anti american communist" -
