Yeah - they don't need to endorse cause by their attacks on Bush they've already signaled their choice for President without having to surrender the illusion they're a non-partisan organization. In reality, they are a surrogate bought for and paid for, of the Democratic Party.
Be nice to Clevelanders, I was born there.
Rubbish.Halliburton the only firm that could handle the difficult contracts awarded them, with possible exception of a French firm.And Halliburton, staying the course, has had many employees murdered, and thus is deserving of respect.
Yes that is another question; but the author of the article would have to be stupid to not know the answer.
The answer is the the NAACP duo of bond and imfume DID NOT expect President Bush to attend. The simply extended the invitation so that when he refused it, they could pretend that the NAACP represents American "colored people" in general and that President Bush was snubbing African Americans in general by not attending the "colored people" convention.
I don't think the Johns or the Dims will get much of a "bump" out of this transparent ploy.
Of course not. They be Uncle Toms and Aunt Jemimas.

"W" is FAR LESS a "RACIST" than the "NAACP!!"
"W" was "Presented With" Individuals of Exceptional Ability--& He Chose Them to "Lead His Departments!!"
Their "Skin color" was IRRELEVANT!!
The "Dem's" have FAILED ALL of the Tests that the "Black-American 'CRATS" have "Required" of the "'Pubs"--The HYPOCRISY of the "Democrats" has been Dramatically Demonstrated.
We are Beyond "Truth,"--we are NOW "Into" the ESSENCE of "Reality!"
So How do we "Go Out;?" --When We are "Done With" our Present Lives, WHAT NEXT!!?? have PASSED!!.
Nobody wants you to be PC, so don't set up that strawman so that you can knock it down. You made broad comments about not reaching out to the "black community," I challenged you. You then compared your inane comments to George's (appropriate) snubbing of the NAACP, and now you don't see how you have equated the black community to the NAACP? If you didn't mean to equate the two, then I guess you are not in such "good company" after all.
Liberal Juan Williams is no Julian Bond. Take that as a high compliment, Juan.
I used to party hard in E Cleveland, a house on Belmar St. We used to have an annual boxing match on the front lawn, my bother (Baby Pins) against Ronny (The Executioner). Ronny was a black guy we hung out with and the drummer in the band. The whole neighborhood would be on their porches watching the 3 round boxing match. This was 1981-82 days. LOL
Well I won't - he did state that Bush lied and I will not praise him for the meager crumb he gave while furthering the lie that Bush lied.
So, you have no dog in this fight huh? There is an antidote, it's called the truth. Wake up and smell the eggs frying. You can't run away you can only hide and your statement is hiding.
Show us the hard evidence that President Bush lied, Mr Brown?. May, I call you a liar until you prove me different?
Bush/Cheney 2004
thanks rdb3.. but i knew that.
hey e. cleve.. used to party in parma. white sox but no boxing though, lol.
Bond and Queasy have yet to figure out that NAACP does not stand for National Association of Anti-Caucasian People!
IT's great to hear that Brian Williams had this to say. Thanks for the info--I don't watch tv much.
