"So when an organization like the SPLC or NAACP called some conservative group a 'hate group' or 'racist', the SPLC and NAACP would in turn be called 'un-American' or “'nti-American'."
Don't conservatives already do that anyway? Everybody from the average conservative on the street to your talk show hosts to the highest ranks of government all pull this shit. Of course, that's after the politicians and the talk show hosts bitch and whine about it for a while to garner ratings and sympathy from other conservatives too stupid to see through the charade. Then you guys start doing the whole "anti-American" thing or, if you're not feeling particularly bright that day, you simply act like a five-year-old and do the whole, "Yeah, well so are you!" bit and resort to labeling whoever hurt your feelings this week a "hate group" too.

Un-American Activities Committee? Like McCarthy's people? Of course, Freepers probably admire McCarthy.

So calling someone a racist is un-American?
CUAC should also condemn government actions that are unconstitutional and oppressive
That's what the ACLU does.

What is needed is an equivalent organization, called, for example, the Citizens Un-American Activities Committee (CUAC, a play on words of HUAC)
I see what you did there. It's really not very clever.
So when an organization like the SPLC or NAACP called some conservative group a “hate group” or “racist”, the SPLC and NAACP would in turn be called “un-American” or “anti-American”.
I think most people would prefer to be 'anti-American' rather than racist.

@Filin De Blanc:
"Freepers probably admire McCarthy"?
I don't know why you're diluting this statement with "probably". Freepers absolutely admire McCarthy, except for those who think he doidn't go far enough.

Yeah that little idea would work. And unless there's something in there that I'm not seeing, this guy has a really stupid name. At least my handle has some zazz to it.

Do whatever you want. If you want to start an organization that is only there to label groups it doesn't agree with as anti-American and doesn't actually do anything worthwhile (SPLC and NAACP both contribute valuable services) go ahead. Just don't expect anyone to take that organization's labels seriously. By the way, groups like the Family Research Council are labeled as hate groups not because they're conservative, hell, not even because they hate gays but because they spread misinformation about gays and fund initiatives such as the death penalty for gays in Uganda. Financing someone's death just because they're gay is pretty damn hateful.

"So when an organization like the SPLC or NAACP called some conservative group a “hate group” or “racist”, the SPLC and NAACP would in turn be called “un-American” or “anti-American”. "
But then Americans could call that conservative group "Pro AL'Queda" or "has cooties" or "Nazicommunist".
To be serious for a moment, Pat Robertson already did that. He started the ACLJ (evil twin of ACLU) to assist christians in getting court approval to opress Americans.

So basically you want to start an organization that would basically say, "I know you are but what am I?"
And why is it I get the feeling that "un-American" means "not a god-fearing, white, conservative, heterosexual, Republican-voting, Christian male?"

Speaking of titles, I understand that they abbreviated Free Republic's original name: 'The People's Free Democratic Republic of Freedom'.

Harass conservatives? Last time I checked, conservatives were not driven to suicide by gay discriminating against them.

Every designation the SPLC has made in terms of "hate groups" has been spot on. The fact that you don't like being called out for the disgusting bigots that you are is too bad.

"Help! Help! We are being oppressed and harassed! We are no longer able to string uppity niggers from lampposts! We are put in jail when we beat up fags and leave them for dead! We are put in jail when we give lesbians a good old-fashioned corrective rape! Help! Help! Our human rights have been robbed from us!"
Yuch! My fingers and eyes feel dirty from just writing that stuff...
Don't you already have an organization which condemns actions that are unconstitutional and oppressive? I believe it's called the ACLU.
Isn't the Shrub mostly responsible for the ever increasing paranoid security apparatus?

We already have an organization that does that. It calls itself "Fox News"

Let me get this straight... someone who points out how groups that are actively attempting to violate the rights that people are GUARANTEED in the fucking Constitution are nothing less than "hate groups" is, to your mind, un-American??

Yeah, you label your new group after HUAC, which is vilified by history books and remembered with disgust by our senior citizens. That's a winning strategy.
