The screaming match between Monica McCullough and Tiffany Hawthorne at the NAACP's national headquarters in Baltimore was getting out of hand when three co-workers tried to intervene.
But it was too late. McCullough had lunged over a colleague and struck Hawthorne in the face. The fight that ensued sent Hawthorne to Mercy Hospital's emergency room with swelling and bruises to her face and hands, according to her application for a protective order. The two women were granted restraining orders.
The Feb. 26, 2004, altercation, described in the court document, bolsters claims in an internal NAACP report made public this week that there was a poisonous atmosphere under Kweisi Mfume's watch at the nation's oldest civil rights organization.
Mfume, who stepped down as NAACP president in November and who has launched a Maryland campaign for U.S. Senate, has denied allegations in the memo that he gave preferential treatment to female employees he dated, causing unrest in the office. Mfume said he left behind an organization that was stronger and more healthy than when he arrived nine years earlier.
But the emergence of the document has made plain that his campaign for the Senate will open the book on Mfume's public and private life, including the former congressman's reign at the NAACP.

Who can honestly vote for a man that can't keep his ho's in line?
Mfume must have passed Wilt Chamberlin's record for chicks by now. I know, I know....it's just those lib/dem 'family values' coming through again......
What is it they say about abolsute power? [/facetiousness]
NAACP = New African-American Corruption Plantation
Are you suggesting "That's a tough row to hoe?"
Yeah, especially if she's dull and rusty.
So the liberals are eating their own....

Normal procedure when a gain in POWER AND CONTROL is perceived, for the Socialist-Rats. They will and do shaft anyone that even appears to be an obstacle to power gain.
I bet Karl Marx is proud!!!
Does he knock em up like Jessie?
He's no Jesse Jackson, just ask Jesse, he'll preach on it.
Why would anyone believe that an ex-felon who has 5 illigitimate kids ,give preferential treatment to women he has had sex with?
Or believe anything he had to say about anything, for that matter.....
However, Qweezie is far from over. Never overestimate the integrity or intelligence of NAACP members, they'll fall for what any black demagogue tells them?
Sounds like a good prime time reality show.
No, I think the better phrase would be "That's a tough hoe to row."
I think in this case it's more like "tough ho's to row".
