Ronald Reagan, John Wayne members of 'hate group'?

Campus organization smeared for opposing illegal immigration, same-sex marriage - WorldNetDaily: One of America's oldest and most mainstream conservative organizations -- whose membership has included Ronald Reagan and John Wayne -- has been designated a "hate group" by the Southern Poverty Law Center for opposing illegal immigration, same-sex marriage and affirmative action. Young Americans for Freedom at Michigan State University will appear on the list in April along with groups tied to racist skinheads, Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan. Former members of Young Americans for Freedom, founded by William F. Buckley Jr. in 1960, include Ronald Reagan; former Sen. Dan Quayle; Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-CO; and actor John Wayne. The left-leaning Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) says its purpose is to combat racism and promote civil rights . . .
