NAACP: Nonpartisan Branch of the Democratic Party
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! that'll keep me laughing for a bit!
Is this from the Onion?
The NAACP talks all this trash on Bush and then they are surprised when he doesn't want to come and be a speaker? Rod Paige did a decent job slamming these clowns in his op-ed. I know I wouldn't be in a hurry to come speak for a group that said i was trying to whore out black voters, preaching hate and filling my cabinet with a bunch of uncle toms. Disgusting tired old anti-bush rhetoric of no substance.
An administration official and former NAACP member was on one of the news shows last night. He said that there are posters hanging on the walls of the NAACP HQ that advertize 5 and 6 hundred dollar per week jobs to help remove Bush from office. (Im looking for the transcript)
Thats a blatent violation of the law and the NAACP is clearly unconcerned about the potential of retribution.
"Maybe Mfume should have used the term “Uncle Tom” just as Harry Belafonte did."
I don't think it can be over-emphasized that the term 'Uncle Tom' as usually used today and is used here, is a blatantly racist epithet. The underlying assumption is that because a person is Black, they are expected to believe and behave in a certain way. Two centuries ago, another term was used (and is still often used) for exactly the same reason.
