Top Washington Times Editor's Wife Confirms Racism Allegations

http://www.netscape.com/viewstory/2006/09/30/top-washington-times-editors-wife-confirms-racism-allegations/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.com%2Fgeorge-archibald%2Ftop-washington-times_b_30565.html&frame=true


The second most powerful editor at The Washington Times is a white supremacist racist who says blacks are "born genetically 15 to 20 IQ points lower than a white person" and that abortion is necessary "to keep the black and minority population down in this country." His wife, Marian, confirmed this, on the record, in an interview with reporter Max Blumenthal for the Oct. 9 issue of The Nation magazine.

Francis B. Coombs Jr., the managing editor of The Washington Times, a major media ally of the Bush administration, is described by multiple newsroom sources in Blumenthal's piece as an unreconstructed "racial nationalist" and a hater of blacks and Jews.

The serious problem with Coombs' line of defense is that his wife, Marian Kester Coombs, confirmed his racist white supremacist worldview in her own on-the-record interview with Blumenthal.

-snip-

Marian Coombs is a close friend of Jared Taylor, notorious white supremacist and founder of the neo-eugenicist group, American Renaissance. She admitted in her Nation interview that she attended American Renaissance conferences to meet with her old friend, Nick Griffin, leader of the neo-fascist whites-only British National Party (BNP).

Marian Coombs has written frequently for Occidental Quarterly, an openly white supremacist and anti-Semitic publication. In one article, she wrote the United States had become a "den of iniquity" because it allowed too many minority immigrants. In another piece, she criticized interracial marriage, stating: "white men should 'run, not walk' to wed 'racially conscious' white women and avoid being outbred by non-whites."

3. "Major media ally of the Bush administration" - will the scandals about
Bush, his administration, and his friends ever stop. I don't think so. Of course, nothing happens, so I guess it doesn't really matter.

6. Wasn't Prescott bush an advocate of eugenics?
I believe he was.

A powerful man, a powerful family, the sons learn from their fathers. Not always, as sometimes the sons do the right thing. But the bushes? Nahhh.

Yes, the bushes and the WT are joined at the hip.
