Hyatt Hotels embraces racist white supremacist group

UPDATE: Correct link to article.

Hyatt says it doesn't "discriminate" against guests.

Cool.

I hope we'll be seeing the Klan holding its annual conference at the Hyatt next.

More importantly, this is a theme far-right religious extremists have grabbed on to, and it's been repeated by different factions on the right: You must tolerate our intolerance.

The way it goes is this: If you have a problem with the Klan, then YOU'RE the one who's intolerant. If you find the American Family Association's history of anti-Semitism unsavory, then YOU'RE intolerant of their intolerance. And if the homophobes at the Concerned (wo)Men of America and the Family Research Council make you sick, then you're intolerant of their homophobia.

You see, the way to show your civil rights stripes in George Bush's America is to embrace hate and show how diverse you really are.

Seig Hyatt!
