Horowitz: There’s a ‘figurative’ noose ‘over my head.’

Speaking at Columbia University today for the culmination of Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, right winger David Horowitz compared the negative reception his campaign has received on campus to the recent incident of a noose being hung on the door of a black professor at Columbia. Horowitz claimed “nooses have been put figuratively on the doors of the College Republicans“:

We’ve had many distractions this semester, and I guess I’m one of them. A recent one was an unfortunate incident of a noose being put on a professor’s door. I think that the campus is right to be concerned about that. But I detect a somewhat of double standard at this university and other’s that I’ve been to, in that nooses have been put figuratively on the doors of the College Republicans here who have invited me. Of course, there’s always a noose over my head by a national hate campaign which has been organized by radical Muslim groups and radical leftist groups.

Watch it:

Apparently for Horowitz, being accused of racism is the equivalent of being the target of racism.

...poor thing..

Horowitz, David

9 institutional roles for $2,323,623

David Horowitz represents one of the right's favorite kinds of people: lapsed leftists (See Marvin Olasky).

He is the president and founder of the David Horowitz Freedom Center (formerly Center for the Study of Popular Culture - CSPC), which is a well-funded ($350,000 + from the Bradley foundation alone in 1998) launching pad for his and others attacks against supposed liberals, the supposedly liberal media, and public television in particular.

Horowitz was paid $330,000 in 2003 by the CSPC, according to their IRS 990

David Horowitz From his perch at the CSPC, Horowitz frequently appears on TV and radio to denounce the left and attack it for various "falsehoods."

Horowitz's holds a bachelor's degree from Columbia University (1959) and a Master's degree from the University of California, Berkeley (1961).

Shortly after graduating from Berkeley Horowitz became a leader of what was called the " New Left " movement, editing the influential left wing magazine Ramparts.

Horowitz's big career move came in the 1980s, when he and his partner Peter Collier reversed their ideological perspective, coalescing in their 1989 book, "Destructive Generation: Second Thoughts about the Sixties."

Collier and Horowitz also created a project of the CSPC called the Committee on Media Integrity (COMINT), designed specifically to attack Public Television. People for the American Way (PFAW) has reported that:

While Horowitz claims he does no direct lobbying, he takes credit for legislative attacks on PBS: "Probably Senator Dole and I are the two individuals that had the most to do with the present hold" [on reauthorization of PBS funding]. Buying a Movement, from People for the American Way.

PFAW has also reported that more than 50 percent of the CSPC's budget in 1992 came from three foundations: Olin, Bradley and Sarah Scaife (joint contributions totaling $482,500). COMINT itself was begun with $125,000 in start-up funds from the Sarah Scaife Foundation in 1988.

Grants to the CSPC.

Grants to the National Forum Foundation. Horowitz and Collier first received money (at least $825,000 -- money you wouldn't see as going to Collier and Horowitz were you to just search for grants to the CSPC) from the right wing movement through the NFF.
