True--context would help here. I agree he is right to forego the speech. They are absolutely hating it, though.
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.
