Now that it has finally happened, I can share the story with you as it was told to me. I am a former member of the NAACP and left after Bond and Mfume came in. Bond has always been the power behind the curtain and has a rabid hatred of Republicans. The rift between Bond and Mfume started after Mufume selected Condi Rice for the NAACP's President's award in 2002. Mfume kept the selection secret until the last minute and once Bond found out he went nuts stating that "What the hell was a Republican doing winning an NAACP award." The rift continued to grow as Bond stacked the board with his allies and started making statements that threaten the group's tax expemt status, with the IRS investigation being the last straw, plus the fact that Mfume was final forced to come to Condi Rice's defense when John Sylvester made his racist statements. Mfume was well aware that with control of the board that Bond was going to see that his contract was not renewed. The board had brought Mufume in to be the front man because Bond is totally out of control, but after Bond was able to secure major funds from groups like MoveOn.org and Soros, so Mufume saw the writing on the wall. I am not telling what I think I am telling what I know, as quite and kept that it is Mfume and I happen to be friends(we may disagree on politics, but we are friends who respect each other)

This could be the beginning of the end of this once worthy organization, now reduced to race-baiting and hate mongering.
Losing their tax exempt status will kill their funding. Now, if only the IRS would go after Jessie Jackass.

Good riddance to a racist, bigoted, hate-America lowlife.

I wonder if his replacement will be black, since the NAACP is supposed to represent all colored people.....

If this has already been mentioned forgive me, but I think he might be positioning himself for McAwful's position.

The only problem might be the NAACP's scandal.

The NAACP overhyped allegations of black voter disenfranchisement in Florida during the 2000 presidential elections. Mfume was leader of the NAACP at that time.

The US Civil Rights Commission investigated every single allegation (there were about 100), and found no substance to any of them.

The NAACP ceased to exist as a credible organization as a result, and its credibility is still nonexistent.

Did you notice that there were NO such complaints in the 2004 election?

Yeah. He did a lot for (to!) the NAACP.

Bill Cosby definitely would be the best man for the job, as long as they keep the admin crap off his back and just let him speak all over the country.

Sir:

As I was born in Baltimore, three years after Frizzell Grey, I grew up with knowledge of his criminal record. As a teenager, he quit high school and began a career as a criminal. He ran illegal numbers, was a pimp, and fathered five children by four different women. Renaming himself Kweisi Mfume, he then became a local politician, "activist", and Congressman from the benighted state of Maryland.

Now he is stepping down as head of the NAACP (Daily News, page 10), which can only improve the ethical image of that organization.
