The National Association for the Advancement for Colored People (NAACP) is accusing the Tea Party movement of being led by "hardcore white supremacists." The charge is made in an anti-Tea Party resolution to be voted on at the group's annual convention being held in Kansas City this week.
The Los Angeles Times reported on the incendiary race-baiting rhetoric being used by the NAACP to stoke racial tensions ahead of the November elections:
The NAACP is expected to approve a resolution at its annual convention condemning the "tea party" movement for harboring "racist elements that are a threat to our democracy," a spokeswoman for the civil rights organization said Monday.
The proposed resolution states that the "movement is not just about higher taxes and limited government but something that could evolve and become more dangerous," NAACP spokeswoman Leila McDowell said. Delegates gathering in Kansas City, Mo., will consider the resolution as early as Tuesday.
...The proposed resolution asserts that "hardcore white supremacist organizations have participated in and occasionally lead tea party rallies." McDowell said the statement was based on academic research on the tea party movement and referred to a faction within the larger movement.
The Kansas City Star first reported on the proposed resolution last night.
Other parts of the resolution accuse the Tea Party movement of racism for criticizing Barack Obama and other politicans:
•Tea party supporters have engaged in “explicitly racist behavior” and “displayed signs and posters intended to degrade people of color generally and President Barack Obama specifically.”
•Tea party activists have used racial epithets, have verbally and physically abused black members of Congress and others, and have been charged with threatening public officials.
Two months ago, the NAACP verbally attacked Kenneth Gladney, a Black man assaulted by unions goons at a Tea Party protest in Missouri last year, as an "Uncle Tom."
Gateway Pundit reported on the racist NAACP comments:
Back in the day, we used to call someone like that, and I want to remind you, uh, when this incident occurred, I was really struck by a front page picture of this guy, which we called, a Negro, I mean that we call him a Negro in the fact that he works for not for our people but against our people. In the old days, we call him an Uncle Tom. I just gotta say that. Here it is, the day after a young brother, a young man, I didn’t mean to call him a brother, but on the front page of the Post Dispatch, ironically, he’s sitting in a wheelchair, being kissedote to on the forehead, by a European. Now just imagine that as a poster child picture, not working for our people.
The NAACP resolution being launched at the Tea Party comes just after the formation of the One Nation coalition of 170 leftist groups which includes the NAACP and other racist organizations like the National Council of La Raza.
The groups are banding together ahead of the November elections in an effort to thwart a perceived rout of the Democratic party and the leftist Obama agenda at the polls. With Blacks being the only major voter demographic holding strong for Obama with over ninety percent support, the left sees it as imperative to race-bait Blacks so they will turn out to vote in numbers like they did two years ago for Obama.
Otherwise, with support from the rest of the nation for Obama in the high 30s and many Black voters consigned to gerrymandered districts that favor Democrats, the left faces a historic defeat four months from now.
National Association for the Advancement of Alcoholics Anonymous?
They tacitly approve it, as does Holder.
LOL... I will be using “Black Pampers” from now on.... love it.
I also like the pic.
Black bigots are racist fools.
The NAA-Colored People and the Black Pampers are getting on my nerves.
So what about the cabal of hardcore Black Supremacists that run the NAACP?
National Association for the Advancement of Alcoholics Anonymous?
Naaaa, it should be the National Association for the Advancement of African Americans. NAACP is so 1960'ish...
Just race baiting. They are afraid of the Tea Party folks..which includes some decent blacks such as West from Florida. Reading such crap is a waste of time.
Tea Party people are constitutionalists that defend rights for all Americans. Sad to see the division caused by Obama which is to advance his base.
Don’t fall for this trap.
the community seems to be organized by color lately...
How much of my money (through welfare) paid for those posters and the time for you to put them up?
kristinn, is it time to repost the on-the-ground rules for Freeps? (cameras, buddies and such) to counter the attempts by the ultraleft to misrepresent, manipulate and lie their way to an ill-begotten race war? Thanks.
I’m with you on that.
Would people realize these communist anarchists are extremist racists if they started donning pointy black hoods?
LOL Sounds about right.
If you don’t mind, I’m going to borrow that for my tagline.
Well said.
Yeah, no racists in the Democrat, liberal side, are there?

Oops!
“And quit wearing that panzy-ass hat, Shagboob.”
He can’t. And I have evidence.
First, these Communists seem to have some sick fascination with cheesy looking military uniforms. I think it is a gene found in your typical Communist’s precious bodily fluids. See Castro and Kim Jong Iil as other examples.
Next, encourage the use of these uniforms as they make the users of said uniforms look like complete RETARDS.
Finally, if these twits do get the balls to start some kind of ruckus, the morons will be a hell of a lot easier to identify if they wear these ridiculous outfits. The only risk you might face in terms of death is dying of laughter.
Someone on this thread eluded to a WWII like scenario as being the only thing that might wake the American public up. I am sorry to say that I agree. What’s more terrifying is that if you take a look at the world today, it’s almost 100% probable we are going to see another major World War in the next 10 years or so ... what is sickening is that we should have learned enough in the past 100 years to prevent this nonsense.
it’s always about race.
it gets really tiresome in instances when it is clearly political. I don’t mind when it’s actually a race case, but tea partiers began as a movement to counter socialist directions and gross mismanagement of the budget and gross conceit and unresponsiveness of an elected aristocracy.
