I don't get why supposedly liberal members are using racist, right-wing sources to back up their arguments.

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/VDARE

VDARE is a "editorial collective" website run by paleoconservative Peter Brimelow. The site features regular articles by writers such as Michelle Malkin, Chuck Baldwin, Paul Craig Roberts, and Pat Buchanan on a variety of topics, and several writers who mostly only write for VDARE about race and immigration matters.

The site appears to be mainly a platform for Peter Brimelow's anti-immigration views, which veer frequently into playing footsie with overt white nationalism; the other topics are window dressing. VDARE has carried articles by fringe "academics" Jared Taylor, J. Phillipe Rushton and Kevin MacDonald, who more than just flirt with overt "scientific" racism (or "racial realism," as they like to call it). It also carried articles by the white nationalist Sam Francis until his death in 2005.
