It is no secret that Religious Right groups do not particularly like the Southern Poverty Law Center, especially ever since it started keeping a list of "Active Anti-Gay Groups" that includes groups like the Family Research Institute, Watchmen on the Walls, and Traditional Values Coalition.
MassResistance is also featured on the list, and is now fighting back, claiming that the SPLC secretly wrote the Department of Homeland Security report on right-wing extremism that was released last year.
MassResistance links to an article by Tom DeWeese, president of the American Policy Center, who asserts that this is the case.
DeWeese provides no evidence or documentation for the allegation that the SPLC drafted the DHS report ... but that doesn't matter, as the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission is already accepting it as truth and is therefore demanding that Congress must "defund the Southern Poverty Law Center".
Where the CADC got the idea that the Federal Government subsidizes the SPLC is anybody's guess, since they cite absolutely nothing to support the claim.

Hey, religious right, if you want to destroy the Southern Poverty Law Center, you'll need to get in line... behind the KKK, Neo-Nazis, and other white supremacists.
Just a little bit telling, huh?
