NAACP Issues Report on Links Between Tea Party Factions and "Racist Hate Groups" Posted by Brian Montopoli 5 comments
Updated 11:19 am Eastern
The NAACP today issued a report detailing "the links between certain Tea Party factions and acknowledged racist hate groups in the United States."
"These links should give all patriotic Americans pause," NAACP president and CEO Benjamin Jealous writes in a forward.
Jealous allows that that "the majority of Tea Party supporters are sincere, principled people of good will." He urges "the leadership and members of the Tea Party movement [to] read this report and take additional steps to distance themselves from those Tea Party leaders who espouse racist ideas, advocate violence, or are formally affiliated with white supremacist organizations."
These groups and individuals are out there, and we ignore them at our own peril," Jealous said in a statement before the report was released. "They are speaking at tea party events, recruiting at rallies, and in some cases remain in the tea party leadership itself."

I wonder what the percentage of white people in the NAALCP is? Wouldn’t that low of a number be indicative of a racist group?

There's a certain disgusting irony when the NAACP plays the race card.

How about the link between Obama's beloved ACORN and certain Left Wing racist hate groups?

All they could document was some racist posting on a Tea Party affiliated website as proof?

An organization who’s sole purpose is to advance the interest of one race calls others “racist”.....and not a single article will point out the irony.

Does the NAACP have any research regarding themselves, the Democratic Party, the Congressional Black Caucus and the new Black Panther Party?

The public who watches TV are incredibly stupid because they enable this. Almost every other TV commercials is the “dumb white guy.” ALL TV is 24x7 propaganda - Fox is only marginally better.
Millions of “dumb” white guys watching ball games filled with “dumb white guy” commercials support this.

Well, the NAACP certainly is an expert on racist hate groups, seeing as they are one.
