Rachel Dolezal Postpones Meeting to Discuss Her Race
ABC News ^ | June 14, 2015 | ABC News

Posted on 06/14/2015 4:14:06 PM PDT by rickyrikardo

Rachel Dolezal, the president of Spokane, Washington's NAACP chapter, has postponed Monday's monthly NAACP membership meeting, where she had planned to make a statement regarding the "questions and assumptions swirling in national and global news about my family, my race, my credibility, and the NAACP."

Dolezal said in an emailed statement today: "Due to the need to continue discussion with regional and national NAACP leaders, tomorrow's meeting is postponed and will be rescheduled for a later date. We appreciate your patience and understanding at this time."

"There are many layers to this situation," Dolezal said in her original statement, sent via email Friday night. "There are questions and assumptions swirling in national and global news about my family, my race, my credibility, and the NAACP. I have discussed the situation, including personal matters, with the Executive Committee. I support their decision to wait until Monday to make a statement. The Executive team asked that I also release my response statement at the same time, which will be during the 7-9 pm monthly membership meeting."

For years, Dolezal, 37, has identified herself publicly as African American. When applying for a spot on Spokane's Police Ombudsman Commission -- of which she is now chairwoman -- Dolezal identified herself as white, black and American Indian, ABC affiliate KXLY-TV in Spokane reported.

She’s getting ready for the big fall, and how to do it right. The next reality show, the talk circuit, etc.

What’s the problem? Wasn’t William Jefferson Clinton the first black president? If he is black, Rachael Dolezal certainly is.

Yeah. There are many layers, and not one of them black.

Gotta love how the state-run media uses the phrase, “...allegedly white.”

I mean, really. What a bunch of stenographers.

When she decides to make her statement. Will she make her statement as a white person, black person and now even Native American? So who will she be coming out as?

Sure. And Obammie-the-Islamofascist-Commie is the “first Jewish president.”

And Bruce Jenner is really a woman.

This is moral relativism spiraling out of control and where it was headed when it was first put into play in destroying American culture...

“who is to say what is reality?”

Meanwhile, the enemies of America are laughing wildly at such a bunch of fools chasing their own tails.

“...many layers...”

Layer 1: She lies even more than Hillary.
Layer 2: Her inability to do anything useful is equal to Hillary’s.
Layer 3: What else can an untalented person do, except be some sort of community organizer?
Layer 4: Hey, it pays the bills, and the NAALCP was too stupid to see through my shoe polish.
Layer 5: Don’t make no diff...the MSM is even more corrupt than me.

She is a fraud, and the NAACP would be perpetuating a fraud by allowing a white person to lead a black organization, because it is paying a white person instead of a black person to do the job.

The delay is only to arrange the amount of money that will paid to the fraud to go away quietly.

"There are many layers to this situation,"

She speaks the language of the self-important so well.

I heard she's going to be playing the villain in the next Spider-Man movie: the Chameleon.
