President Bush would have accepted this invitation to speak at the NAACP convention, but Bill Cosby really said everything the President wanted to say at an NAACP event a few weeks ago.

"We're not fools, he said."

Could've fooled me!

Julian Bond's words are especially arrogant, pompous, and foolish. There is no respect for the office of President anymore. Thanks, Dems and Bill C.

The above post is a thread entirely by dougfromupland. It's a scary thing that we subject our students to J.Bond's "wisdom." I'm sure he keeps is teachings neutral. /sarcasm.

"''They preach racial equality but practice racial division,'' Bond said.

The first time I read this, I thought it was directed toward the NAACP."

My thoughts exactly. Why should President Bush address a group that constantly tells it's members to vote against him and his party? Why should he adress a crowd so the media can show audience memebers with angry scowls on their faces? Why should he cave in to constant badgering and insults?

If the NAACP wants to be such a partisan organization that it gets shut out of the political process every time there is a republican in office, that's fine. They will just be weaker for it.

Maybe the NAACP should give some recognition and props to an administration that has the highest ranking african-americans the Country has ever seen. Then maybe President Bush would be more willing to accept an invitaion.

Good memory. The press and libs would package it their way no matter what he does, so I say stay home. The heck with them.

W is one President who means what he says and sticks with it. And the NAACP can stick it.

This is what the naacp did to Bush. They have a lot of nerve inviting him to anything.

Any thinking person who wishes to be minimally aware can turn on the TV and see Colin, Condi, etc...representing our country proudly and expertly.

The NAALCP is the same outfit that underwrote the terrible TV ad that equated Bush to the killers of the young black man who was dragged to death behind a truck in Texas. The victim's daughter tried to make the connection with the help of the NAALCP ( L for liberal, of course, as per Rush). Both white perps were sentenced to death for the evil deed, but the TV ad says nothing about the sentence.

I'm sure that Roy and Niger Innis of CORE have already extended an invitation. Good people.

I think it was Coulter who said that why should the President go to the NAACP meeting when all that would happen is that they would blame him for the death of James Byrd again.

Be Seeing You,

In fact, these black racist thug con-mem should be screaming to high heaven over Bush's immigration failure. Illegal Mexican criminals are taking jobs and tomorrow's opportunity from black men, young black men.Most entry level jobs that marginal blacks would take are reserved for river swimmers. This condemns future generations of blacks to continued ghettohood.

Sure, the NAACP's dems masters like keeping black in a modified slavery beholden to the dems and obligated to vote the way they are told, but masses of illegal Mexicans is not in the best interests of blacks and the NAACP's failure to see this only emphasizes what useless field hands for the dems they are.

Of course, Bush's brave refusal will allow the step-n-fetchit members of the fully segregated, colored only Congressional Black Caucus to give about the same silly speeches they would have babbled had Bush addressed the Convention.

But they asked him twice. /sarcasm

They must have had something really big planned and he had to go and decline the invitation. :)

Is it valid to drop the word "venerable" in an "unbiased" news article?

He's the first sitting president since Herbert Hoover not to address the group.

Maybe he's the first one since Hoover to understand the concept of not casting pearls before swine.
