Live Show Rebroadcast 04: Guest, Mark Potok, Southern Poverty Law Center, Premier Anti-Hate Group Organization

Greetings!

I'm Jack Clark, host of the Blast the Right podcast, two years old and going strong.

If this is the first time you're listening to Blast The Right, you can check out last week's podcast if you want to know what the regular, prerecorded show is like. That's the show which is the most listened to grass roots progressive podcast in the country.

What you're about to hear right now, is a sample of the recently started, live call-in version of the show. (Audio quality is not as good as the prerecorded show.)

The guest is Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center, which is probably the world's leading organization fighting right-wing hate groups. The SPLC is most famous for shutting down Klan and other hate groups through civil lawsuits.

First let me tell you that I am a Social Democrat. I tend to agree with most of the stuff you say, but when you talk about ILLEGAL immigration we split ways.

You should have someone that is living in my situation poor to lower middle-class, working and living in the ghetto or in the poor south to discuss this this topic. I can hear that you don't understand the subject because of these arguments;

1.Don't live in the poor neighborhoods, trying to compete with ILLEGAL immigrants.
2.One is a lawyer, and another a Blogger with education and most likely working a job that is not affected by immigration.
3.You can't understand the subject, you might try....but you can't. That sounds harsh, but that's the truth.....we people of minority decent, and poor whites, have to fight for the scraps that is given to us as low income workers. You are giving them a unfair advantage, LEGAL immigrants can't compete with that, poor Americans can't compete with that.
4.If your going to let Central Americans in (I am also Belizian, mostly Mayan and African) why not the Haitians, what kind of double standards is that!
5.I don't blame Central Americans, I blame the rich and the uninformed Social Democrat (you) that fall into there trap. For a change why don't you look through the eyes of a LEGAL immigrant or a poor American worker, that can't live off those depressed wages that are given out now because of ILLEGAL immigration.

Please don't just discuss a one sided view, look at all sides in the poor community.
Maybe on the show you can interview poor people of different races and not just the Latino voice. It might open your eyes a bit.

Great podcast - a must listen to
Jack Clark documents the right's wars on the poor, civil liberties, the right of workers to organize at work and obtain a decent working wage and work conditions, and against other countries who refuse to accept American domination. Jack provides all the sources so that you can see for yourself how the right is out to enrich itself at the expense of everyone else. Great job, Jack!

awesome show
Clark always backs up his statements against the right wing with fact and data, which gives him all the more credibility. As conglomerate media controlled by politics clouds the mainstream news media, Jack Clark, along with NPR and Democracy Now! have become my primary news source. Awesome podcast!

In-Depth, Meaty, Hardcore Knowledge
This podcast is not just entertainment, humor, chimp-bashing, or gee-whiz recap of the weeks events. Instead, it hits hard and in-depth on the world economic situation and how right-wing policies impact the poor and less advantaged all over the world. He examines Americas support of the World Bank, IMF,multinational corporations, etc., and connects the dots. This is a podcast for grown-ups. He gives good reasons why the right wing is NOT living up to its precious Bible, without putting down the Bible. As a Jesus-loving Christian and moderate Democrat, I respect this podcast for its subject matter. The grown-up manner of the speaker is just icing on the cake. He IS funny, but hes not trying to be, he just has a deadpan delivery but doesnt have to make jokes to make it interesting. The facts make it interesting and devastating.

A Breath of Fresh Air
Jack Clarks Blast the Right podcast is truly a breath of fresh air when it comes to political commentary. Jack is not like some commentators who simply climb on their soap box and state their own opinions as fact. Instead, Jack welcomes competent challenges to his way of thinking, and with logical analysis and sound research, debunks the lies, distortions, and self-deceptions of the right wing. I strongly recommend Blast the Right for people who seek the truth and care more about the long term health and well-being of the whole citizenry than the short term personal gain advocated by modern conservatives. Listen as Jack carefully shows how the high-sounding "God and country" rhetoric of the right wing is really just a smokescreen for policies that ultimately lead only to the increased misery, suffering, and death of the less fortunate for the particular benefit of the wealthy and the well-connected. And, if you find yourself in agreement, return to Podcast Alley to place your vote! Thanks!
