Bringing their inferior cultures. These loony, hateful views would be just more babble in the grand American conversation were it not for the legitimacy conferred on them by political leaders such as Lott, US Representative Bob Barr of Georgia, Republican National Committee member Buddy Witherspoon, and Senator Jesse Helms, all of whom have endorsed the council or spoken at its meetings. Witherspoon is a member. Lott, a Mississippian, is distancing himself from the group now that its views have become widely known, but as recently as 1997 he was pictured grinning with members in its newsletter. The Republican National Committee chairman, Jim Nicholson, does his party a great service by calling on all Republicans to resign from the council.

Black politicans who are found flirting with Louis Farrakhan's separatist Nation of Islam are properly hammered for it. It is time for white politicans to consider what it means to be one nation indivisible and renounce these uncivil armies.
