Two weeks before a potentially game-changing midterm election, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) has given its endorsement to a report labeling the tea party as a self-preserving movement of racist bigots. Its no wonder given the fact that NAACPs political agenda conflicts with the vast majority of the tea party platform of smaller government and reduced spending.
With Wednesdays release of the report, however, the news media is once again dropping the ball, not only by not pointing out the NAACPs obvious conflict of interest with the tea party movement, but in failing to do their due diligence in reporting on where the report comes from and why it was written.
The Washington Post reports that the NAACP-endorsed Tea Party Nationalism was put together by the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights, but doesnt report further on who the IREHR is. Politico reports that the NAACP commissioned Leonard Zeskind and Devin Burghart to write the study, but makes no mention of who Zeskind or Burghart are other than noting their association with the Institute.

Racists!
The Washington Post reports... was "put together" by the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights, but doesn't report further on who the IREHR is. Politico reports that the NAACP "commissioned Leonard Zeskind and Devin Burghart" to write the study, but makes no mention of who Zeskind or Burghart are other than noting their association with the Institute.Thanks blueyon. I'd put in search links, but I want to get offline before I grow old and arthritic and die here.
Marxist idiots!
NAACP is a communist front group.
With each false accusation of racism, the left wittles away the potency of the jab. They will eventually shink this once serious charge to the level of blowing a rasberry.
I really don’t care about their “Report”. get back to me when they successfully deny my right to free speech.
The NAACP is the Jurassic Park of Grievance Groups.
What racism? I voted for a black woman, a CONSERVATIVE black woman.

As I would say in my early years when confronted with name-calling, “Takes one to know one!” However, that implies their is truth to the name (racist). I belive the are projecting their own views and beliefs on us. I’ve always believed that the ones calling others racist are really racist themselves. But I think they really believe it. I am sick and tired of being called a racist.
I dont know who wrote it but the tone of the report comes straight from the Southern Poverty Law Center. I am sure they have a hand in it.
The war is on folks. These are RINOs who’s candidate did not win and are seeking revenge. Same thing in Delaware.
OOPS wrong thread. Hehehehe.
Enough!!Long past time for these racist retards to get real jobs.
Cheers!
As soon as we get control of the House, NPR must be de-funded-!! Let those crummy Leftists get REAL jobs-!
