Are the Warrens related to the Fords?

The story referenced by the URL doesn't talk about the NAACP. Here's a link to a more relevant story:

But Ratliff said supporting the Warrens should not be viewed as a slight to the families who allege wrongdoing. "We’re not condoning anything that might have gone on because we don’t know. We didn’t delve into that," Ratliff said. "We are concerned, but we are trying to help someone keep a roof over their head and keep a black business in the community if at all possible."

And

Dianna Williams of St. Louis said she is still waiting to receive the ashes of her uncle, who died in 2004, and her grandmother, who died in January. .... "If Mr. Warren were a white man, the black community would be rallying to shut him down," Williams wrote in an e-mail to the NAACP. "But because Mr. Warren is an ex-political figure and a black man, the local NAACP supports him."

It's all about race don'cha know. Vote Obama in 2008?

This is just sick.

This happens quite often all over the country. Dr. G Medical Examiner became famous investigating one of these straight out of college in Jacksonville Fla.
