Radical NAACP Leftists Propose Resolution Condemning "Tea Party Racism" …Update: NAACP Leader Goes Off Message; Says NAACP Needs to Be Like Tea Party
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, July 12, 2010, 5:48 AM
NAACP: We Need to Be More Like Those Racist Tea Partiers
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). the radical leftist group that labels black conservatives “Uncle Toms”, proposed a resolution at their 101st Annual Convention this weekend condemning the “tea party racists.” This far left organization will vote on the resolution Tuesday at their national meeting.
A racist NAACP leader recently attacked black conservative Kenneth Gladney for being “kissed on the forehead, by a European.”

The Kansas City Star reported, via Free Republic:
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will propose a resolution this week condemning racism within the tea party movement.
The resolution, scheduled for a vote as early as Tuesday by delegates attending the annual NAACP convention in Kansas City, calls upon “all people of good will to repudiate the racism of the Tea Parties, and to stand in opposition to its drive to push our country back to the pre-civil rights era.”
NAACP leaders said the resolution was necessary to make people aware of what they believe is a racist element within the tea party movement.
“I think a lot of people are not taking the tea party movement seriously, and we need to take it seriously,” said Anita Russell, head of the Kansas City chapter of the NAACP. “We need to realize it’s really not about limited government.”
Russell said she was “pretty certain” the resolution would pass.
How awful.
What ever happened to this once respected organization?
UPDATE: Figures. The head of the NAACP just told reporters yesterday that the organization needs to be more like the Tea Party.
Huh?
Kristinn found this at The St. Louis Post Dispatch:
The head of the NAACP paused, started, then paused again when trying to explain what the message of his keynote address would be when he steps to the podium tonight at the civil rights organization’s national convention.
“The core message will be that we’ve got to pull this nation back together and put this country back to work,” said Benjamin Jealous, president and CEO of the NAACP, in an interview.
Jealous’ strategy for pulling the country back together might at first blush surprise those at the convention. His idea: Follow the lead of the Tea Party movement, which emerged in full force after the election of President Barack Obama with rallies, town hall meetings and a “take back the country” mantra.
Truly, this is an organization that has lost its way.

Great. As infuriating and inane as it is, this is a necessary step to get beyond all this racist propaganda. It will illustrate the absurdity of the claim and wake up many people to the true intentions of those who so frequently use it to silence any political dissent.
ProLifer commented:
Just the NAACP projecting “their” racism onto others.
Viv commented:
Isn’t it about time they were aware of the racist element within their own movement?
BarbaraS commented:
The NAACP has been listening to the media and do not realize how large the tea party movement is. They think its members number in the hundreds or maybe even in the thousands. In actuality the tea party movement numbers in the millions and the NAACP is biting off more than they can chew. They are showing the country and the world just how dumb they are. The tea party movement has not mentioned racism ever and their members are of all colors. And they did not call the member of the black caucus the “n” word. The NAACP is a race baiting organization and their very existence depends on racism. That is why they do their best to keep it alive. They are on par with Jackson and Sharpton. This is strictly business with all of them.
Robert commented:
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
will propose a resolution this week condemning
racism within the tea party movement.
Their very name is racist, yet
they accuse others of racism.
And another thing, I think the black population in
general is much more racist than you would think.
But, that’s endorsed by our liberal overlords.
Wright commented:
pot, meet kettle.
Mark1957 commented:
Isn’t the NAACP by definition, a racist organization? I mean, they are the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, they do not advocate the advancement of ALL people, just colored ones. Therefore, how can they call other groups racist?
jainphx commented:
I guess they don’t understand that this just brings more people to the cause. Instead of ignoring the movement they make it larger by stuff like this.
The left just keeps shooting themselves in the foot. Keep it up I love it.
The only one that is racist is the left.
Pawn commented:
Racism is the new communism.
The NAACP is the new John Birch Society.
Funny but sad.
Who stands for the people of color today?
The same people who stand for “We the People”.
The NAACP hates competition it seems.
RecklessProcess commented:
There is no racism in Tea Parties? Where do they get these wild misconceptions? Of course these are teh same people who believe Democrats supported the Civil Rights Act or the Voting Rights Act when the democrats attempted to filibuster both and no democrats voted for them.
Joanne commented:
The NAACP is a racist organization; I wonder if a white person can be a member? How about a National Association for the Advancement of White People, NAAWP? I wonder how that would fly? No, colored people wouldn’t stand for that. Racists, the lot of them. Sickening how warped these people are in their thinking.

LYNNDH commented:
And the Black people that support and/or attend Tea Party gatherings, they are what now?
Joe commented:
Really, now, is there anyone left in America that believes the NAACP has any relevance at all. If they didn’t propose controversial resolutions or release inflammatory statements, no one would even know they existed anymore. They are an organization searching for a cause that does not exist and lacking in leadership so badly that they have become a national joke.
Better to simply ignore such nonsense and let them fade away.

Remember Big Mo’s #1 political maxim: You can be 99.99% assured that a liberal is doing or being the very thing he accuses you of doing or being.
These beclowned irrelevants have “cried wolf” far too often, so much so that few people pay them any mind. President G.W. Bush was wise to avoid going anywhere near that hate group, instead working with less radical/hateful groups as the Urban League.
Formerly known as Skeptic commented:
This is obviously a ploy to get news coverage once again tying the Tea Party with Racism!!!11! (i.e. “The NAACP passed a resolution today…”) Truth has nothing to do with it. I hope the commenters above are correct that most people will see through this, but I fear that too many people still form their opinions by snippets they see on the evening news.
down with dems commented:
The NAACP has made itself irrelevant through its own insistence that everything is racist or based on race.
Learn a new tune.
down with dems commented:
What IS racist is BLACK support for Obama. 90% support for Obama STILL among blacks, even though blacks are the hardest hit by unemployment. They’re not sure what he’s doing, but they like what he’s doing, even though they can’t see any results of what he’s doing. He’s got black skin (even though he’s half white), and he’s stickin’ it to corporations/non-minorities/everyone-above-poverty-level, so they love him. THAT is racist.
listingstarboard commented:
Kenny I think the same thing. The Beck rally is being set up to be the catalyst for racial violence. Democrats need a sentinel event to seize control of the internet and a civilian army. The fact hat the Democrats refuse to listen to the majority of this country and continue to ram communism down our throats signals to me they are confident that they are staying in power, by whatever means necessary.
Militant Conservative commented:
Gee, what’s your membership level?? now how many Tea Party Americans are there? I’m willing to bet you WE American patriots out number you race baiting haters. Your soooo out of date and not needed.
powder is dry.

So now belief in limited government is racism.

Where is the evidence ? Once again, repeat a lie often enough and the mentally lazy will fall for it every time.
Henry Hawkins commented:
The NCAACP was long ago overrun by race-mongers. Unfortunately, they are running out of actual racism and are forced now to create it. And then protest it. Asking for financial support, of course.
templar knight commented:
You can be assured that everything the NAACP does is orchestrated from the White House, so this resolution, and many other actions by this White House and its supporters, are stoking the fires of violence.
The recent actions by the NBPP(New Black Panther Party), including videos of their members advocating the killing of white babies, the intimidation of white voters, the shooting of white people in violent rap videos, and on and on are setting the stage for big trouble. Can you imagine what would happen if the KKK was making videos like this? They would be in jail immediately, and would belong there, just like these NBPP goons.
The very fact that the DOJ(Department of Justice) seems to be coordinating its policy to encourage this type of violence against white people is prima facie evidence that the White House is involved in this preface to violence. What the fools in the White House don’t seem to realize is that once this genie gets out of the bottle it will feed on itself and be almost impossible to stop. One had best be prepared, especially if you live in a big city.
Get yourself a firearm, and get trained before November, you still have time. A very little time.

Joanne commented:
Actually these black organizations have about as much tolerance for diversity as muslims do – both do not allow people to choose for themselves how to think…..tow the line or else mentality. Is it no wonder these people use each other to further their own agendas.

Cynic commented:
The Socialist Democrats would lose their biggest bone of contention if they could not use the race card. Anyone who disagrees with them is a racist.
Dennis commented:
Everything is racist, just ask the Liberal Race Baiters. So these charges should routinely be ignored. If someone is complaining that vit’s racist, I figure it’s probably a pretty good thing to do. We won’t be free of this nonsense until we start rubbing the Race Baiters’ noses in their own stuff.
There is almost no organized White against Black racism left in the USA, but these bastards are busy trying to create some.
Rivka commented:
The NAACP is taking part in the plan to redefine us and this vote is part of it. Please, racist?!? I don’t think so.
The truth: The Tea Party Movement is filled with decent hard working Americans both men and women of all cultures. We are grandmas, moms, military moms, Veterans, poor, rich, middle incomers, Republicans, Democrats, Independents and Libertarians.
Our goal: To restore our government to abide by and support the original principles our founding fathers laid down. We are there because we don’t want our country taken over by a bunch of socialists.

Harrison commented:
Isn’t advancing the issues of “colored people” racist?
Rock commented:
Excuse me, tell me again who called for the killing of cracker babies? Really do not remember seeing any Tea Party members in the background. Well at least the NAACP feels the time is ripe to show their true colors (oops is that raciest?). Thanks Obama you have really been instrumental in uniting the Nation, pretty clear who the enemy is. Your goto guy for race relations says volumes about your agenda. None of it good for the Republic.

Which is sad, because they were historical with their cases before the Supreme Court to bring rights to everyone. Just like the DNC, the far left wing radicals have taken over every organization in an attempt to destroy the American way of life.

Damn right! Keeping the country stuck in the pre-civil rights era is the NAACP’s job.
neomom commented:
The truly sad part of all this is that the real racists all get a pass. I don’t believe anyone that screams racism anymore. I still don’t have a problem with anyone of color because it is so much bigger. It’s the white liberal public school teachers accepting low performance from black children. It’s the college professors that preach lies about our constitution and our founding fathers. Most of them are white. I will be there on 9/28. I’m not sure if I will pack or not. If I kill someone that attacks me I am a racist murderer violating gun laws that violate the constitution. If I let them attack me without the ability to defend myself my children are out a parent. Then again., I don’t think George Washington ever worried about that.

Members of the Tea Parties are studying conservatism, studying the Constitution, and studying the Founding of the nation. They are developing the principles of independence and individual initiative and freedom.
And anyone is welcome and encouraged to join.
These self-serving racist hacks just want to figure out how to take for themselves and leave the nation weak and in endless debt. They don’t care about that as long as they get theirs.
fredCPA commented:
i dont know why anyone pays attention. i dont know anybody under about 40 who knows who these racist hacks are (NAACP), both black and white. or cares what they do. they are more like little old goofy self-parodies. they have become what those black face comedians in the 20s were. funny, they now mock themselves. and seriously no ONE cares or listens. but the inside the beltway doofuses.

Way back in the spring of 2008, a dear friend who doesn’t usually get involved in politics told me that her gut was telling her that Obama would set racial relations back by decades.
At the time, I thought she was nuts. Unfortunately, now we see how right she was! So much for the “historic,” “post-racial” presidency!
obama is racist commented:
OBAMA has always hated whitey! He is a muslim suni who al monsour (arab) paid for his college—he destroyed NASA, Gulf Shores, Wal Street, farmers, valleys, CO2, CIA, Military, Schools, Housing Market (he got 160K), Immigration, he literally sucks…..blacks were educated…and now they hate us even more for learning the truth about white history!!! because they NONE…they still have over 3000 dilects in Africa…
Rocketman commented:
As others have noticed, the NAACP became irrelevant many years ago.
