On July 3 G. Gordon Liddy had a fascinating discussion on the “G. Gordon Liddy Show” with Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, founder of BOND (Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny). They discussed how the left uses race as an issue to augment its power regardless of the harm that so doing causes to the black community. The podcast is available here.
Excerpts:
Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson: When the House and the Senate apologized for slavery I was saddened by that because I know that white Americans who are living today had nothing to do with past history. All the slaves are dead, all the slaves’ owners are dead, and America has done more to repent or make up for the past history of this country than any other country in the world and when they apologized I knew then that it opened the door for reparations and I had thought once, Gordon, that we would never have reparations, that that would not come about, but now that we have the Messiah there, the prophet, the anointed one in the minds of many black people, Barack Obama, I believe now that reparations are going to happen and it’s just, it’s evil and it’s going to divide us like nothing else before in history but this apology has opened the door for that.
For example, Harvard professor, law professor Charles Ogletree helped put this resolution together, he worked with the Senate to put this apology together and he’s been fighting for restitution for a long time and he said that, OK an apology is nice but it’s not enough, it’s not going to satisfy black America until they give us money, and I’m sorry about that. I wish that white America would stand up to this racism that’s coming from black people but I don’t see that happening. I think it’s a sad day in America.

Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson: I’ve been saying to white Americans for years now that they need to start speaking up, they need to get over this fear of being called a racist, because they have allowed this to happen for 50 years and they have trained other young blacks that, you know, Jesse Jackson and others can get away with intimidating us and you can do the same thing and now we have a far-left liberal socialist black Democrat who believes in the redistribution of wealth, he wants to take it from the white man and give it to those who are not earning their way because they’re trying to destroy the white man and that’s what this is about and if white people don’t get over the fear of being called racist it’s over for America.
I don’t see the Republicans standing up to this guy. Because he’s a black liberal they’re afraid of racism and Obama has turned this country upside down and I believe in my heart that Obama will go down in history as the most hated and worst president that this country has ever experienced and all of these guys are connected together.
National Review’s John Derbyshire cited Capital Research Center in his July 10 “Radio Derb” podcast in a segment about ACORN and how it contributed to the election of Sen. Al Franken (D-Minnesota).
Blogger Nancy Armstrong (MsPlacedDemocrat.com) reports that St. Louis, Missouri, gave a $100,000 grant to ACORN and that $82,000 of it is unaccounted for.
The money was given to ACORN for loan modifications, that is, to help struggling homeowners refinance their mortgages. ACORN reportedly charges $750 for each loan modified and says it has completed 24 of them, which means it is entitled to $18,000 from the grant.
Capital Research Center’s Matthew Vadum crossed swords with host Thom Hartmann on the “Thom Hartmann Show” on June 11, 2009.
They had a vigorous discussion of Vadum’s blog post (crossposted with a different headline at the American Spectator) in which he argued that the left was using the June 10 shooting at the U.S. Holocaust Museum to score cheap political points.
Capital Research Center’s Matthew Vadum and ACORN whistleblower Anita MonCrief appeared on the “G. Gordon Liddy Show” for a full hour today to discuss the latest developments with ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now).
Capital Research Center’s Matthew Vadum will be on the “G. Gordon Liddy Show” today just after 12 Noon Eastern time to discuss the Department of Homeland Security’s odious report that labels all conservatives, libertarians, and returning veterans as potential terrorists.
Vadum wrote an article in the American Spectator on the Secretary of State Project, which backed Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie, who is now presiding over the recount.
Vadum and James Dellinger co-wrote a profile of George Soros’s Democracy Alliance, which is tied to the Secretary of State Project.
Vadum discussed these and related issues on “The G. Gordon Liddy Show” Dec. 19. Podcast (MP3 file) is available here.
Roger Hedgecock interviewed Capital Research Center’s Matthew Vadum on “The Roger Hedgecock Show” (San Diego, Calif.) on October 7, 2008. They discussed Barack Obama and his connection to unrepentant terrorist William Ayers and ACORN. They also discussed ACORN’s vote fraud and the subprime mortgage meltdown that helped caused the current turmoil on Wall Street. On the MP3 file Vadum’s segment runs from 17:39 to 31:42.
Capital Research Center’s Matthew Vadum will appear on “The G. Gordon Liddy Show” today starting at about 11:45 (Eastern) to discuss “Financial Affirmative Action,” an article appearing in the online edition of today’s American Spectator magazine. The segment is expected to last about 30 minutes. It will be Vadum’s seventh appearance on the show.
Online streaming is available from the Radio America website here.
POST SCRIPT next day: An MP3 audio file of the show is now available here.

On the September 23, 2008, edition of our show, “Organization Watch,” James Dellinger and Matthew Vadum interviewed the new editor of Labor Watch, Jeremy Lott. We talked about Lott’s books, The Warm Bucket Brigade and In Defense of Hypocrisy, former banker Henry Paulson’s proposed bank bailout, and about organized labor’s attempt to mess with union-certification rules.

On “The Roger Hedgecock Show” yesterday John Gizzi discussed California’s AB 624, a bill that would have forced foundations to publicly disclose the race, gender and ethnicity of their board trustees and the boards and staff of their grantees. The bill was withdrawn at the eleventh hour after California’s largest foundations promised to lavish millions of dollars on minority communities. The bill was pushed by the Greenlining Institute, a left-wing pressure group that threatens adverse public relations campaigns against lenders that refuse to bow to its agenda.
Gizzi wrote about the bill in the July Foundation Watch and his article on the Greenlining Institute will appear in the August Organization Trends.
To listen to the show, click here. The MP3 file covers about one full hour of the show, but Gizzi’s segment runs from 17:20 to 34:25.
