KKK supports McCain


It was mentioned on another thread that saying that Hamas supports Obama is like saying the KKK supports McCain...which this website suggests:

Since David Duke isn't running, I can't say I'm surprised they endorse McCain. Hopefully, we can now avoid the further lunacy that some extend over the Obama/Hamas nonsense...

I didn't post on that Hamas / Obama thread cause I thought it was far-fetched to suggest their was a connection between the two but I had to in this one cause I find it hard to believe this video is real. It first came out in Youtube...redflag!

I went to the always credible DailyKos to see what they had to say...sure enough, there was a blog about it. The blogger did his research and it seems he isn't sure if it is authentic but he is trying too hard to sway the reader in believing it is indeed real. Here it is:

Quote:
Then yesterday, a video popped up on YouTube which purports to show a Ku Klux Klan spokesman endorsing John McCain for President. Is it a fake? A fraud? A hoax?
Surprisingly, this might not be a hoax at all. There are a number of lines of evidence that suggest that this video could be the real deal.

* Keith Pickering's diary :: ::
*

First of all, note the secrecy. The spokesman in the video keeps his face in the shadows, and does not tell us his name, position, location, or title. The only thing that suggests that this really is a KKK spokesman is the title of the video itself, which is provided by the person posting the video, someone who calls himself "DIRECTIVE51". Usually, secrecy is a red-flag for fraud or forgery. But the KKK has such a bad reputation that some parts of it are obsessively secretive.

Note that DIRECTIVE51 uses the KKK logo as his avatar. Also note that after a year of membership, this is the very first vid posted by DIRECTIVE51. So if this was a one-shot hoax job, it was at least a year in the making. The poster's name probably refers to to National Security Presidential Directive 51, which has been diaried here on Kos already. It's a big-government power grab that only a neocon could love.

The KKK is not a single organization. It's a multi-headed hydra, each with its own quirks and emphases. Some, like The Knights Party, are fairly open about who they are. But one branch in particular is quite secretive about their names and membership: that's the Imperial Klans of America, or IKA.

For example, the organization's Virginia Grand Dragon, and perhaps its membership director, is listed only as "Jim B." And if you go down the list of state chapters, you will not find a single name in any email or post-office box address. (In fact, out of 15 state chapters you will find only three actual post office box addresses: one in Kentucky, one in Tennessee, and one in Texas. Could this entire "organization" be made up of just three people? Or maybe four, since Jim B. of the Virginia chapter apparently does not have a chapter which he is Grand Dragon of.)

In fact, there is only one single name of a real person currently in the oganization that you will find on the entire site: Ronald Edwards, Imperial Wizard, who took over in 1996.

So let's compare the (slightly enhanced) shadowy person in the McCain endorsement video to the real Ronald Edwards:


Both of these guys are white, heavyset but not obese, with short-cropped hair, wearing rectangular plastic-rimmed sunglasses, and with heads shaped about the same. Hmmmmm.

Other interesting things to note: the guy in the video owns, or has access to, KKK robes with three (maybe four?) stripes on the sleeve. I'm no expert on KKK iconography, but note that the video itself has several clips from KKK rallies of the past, and the most highly decorated uniforms have three or four stripes on the sleeve.

And finally, the guy in the video owns, or has access to, a flag with the KKK logo on it. Not something the average joe has hanging around the garage.
I am sure we will find out in a couple of days if this is real or not. I bet it is a fake.
Look at the guy in the pic, his face looks bandaged up and wearing glasses. Something fishy about this.

If I posted everything I got off the web or in an email these past 6 months, I'd be banned for life. You can't believe some of the crap out there. One guy is even saying he had a homosexual affair with Obama. And now the big thing going around is that when Obama slipped up and said he had campaigned in 57 states, it was a Fruedian slip. There are 57 Islamic states.

I think we all need to vett our sources somewhat before posting some of this far-fetched stuff.

This belongs in the "No Ship Sherlock" file. Did anyone expect them to endorse a (semi) black man?

I'm sure this is made up, but technically... who do you think the KKK would endorse between the two? I think it's a safe bet it ain't Obama, don't you?

Seriously. It isn't like he requested their endorsement, either.

Who else are they going to endorse? Not Barack. I'm kind of surprised they even endorsed McCain though, given he's such good friends with Lieberman.

This thread was posted as a dig at those that pumped up the "Barack Obama is supported by Hamas" thread.

Sorry, the guy who pumped up this story was an Obama supporter (Liac). He brought this story to everyone's attention.
By the way, one is an actual story and the other isn't. Not saying Obama was seeking the endorsement but that was a legit story.
