Princess Leia told the (Admiral?) “the tighter you squeeze, the more systems will slip through your fingers”.
The longer and louder the Liberals scream “RACISM”, the more back votes they will lose.

They’re desperately clinging to anything that will discredit the movement. It’s completely obvious and, frankly, any thinking person will see right through it.

I was at Jimmy Buffett’s gulf coast concert of 30k+ people, almost entirely a crowd of white (well, suntanned) folks – is anyone going to decry Jimmy Buffett or beach tourism organizations as racist? It would be just as ridiculous.

I also like lindey’s observation above about the Buffet concert. That’s a point worth repeating over and over. Is Jimmy Buffett racist just because his audience is 99% white?

although I see her usefulness now.

I’m sorry, that’s my opinion.

I can’t forget her saying the white man was preparing for a “Race War” last year because many of us where “stocking up” on ammo and guns b/c Obama and his cohorts are inherently anti-gun.

“Race War” was her term .. never eeked from the mouth of a teapartier or white person.

Severely disappointed.

Then again, maybe not so much. I don’t like the wool being pulled over my eyes and like to see the peel-back behind the mask.

It not longer is an apostle for black prosperity and social equality. It does not want ‘colored people’ to advance. It is now nothing more than a debased, grovelling servant of the America-hatng Left. It wishes ‘colored people’, to the greatest extent possible, to be dependents residing on the Progressive Plantation.
The NAACP is a dinosaur. The time has come for its extinction.

I find it particularly amusing that an organization named the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People”, whose very existence is predicated on the notion that the agendae of “colored people” should be advanced, can level a charge of racism in an organization called the “Taxed Enough Already (TEA) Party”. Similarly, I find it particularly disappointing that this sort of behavior will actually work in some segments of the population (none of those segments being racially connected, I might add).

Unless you consider “people who can’t think critically” a “race” unto itself, that is.

Every place I’ve been where the TEA Party was holding a meeting, or demonstrating, it has been peaceful. Every such assembly has been carefully monitored, by its own body, I might add, for people who want to infiltrate and damage the movement with racial epithets or birther or truther statements. Hence, the arrowed picket signs of the form “this person does not represent us”, which are at the ready everywhere. That’s the first time I’ve EVER heard of that mode of such overt self-protection/self-filtering in a political movement, historically or anecdotally.

These poor people, frustrated as they are, can’t even bring themselves to use basic profanity in polite company, much less hurl an epithet. I can only imagine that they’d shouted from the room if they tried anyway.

So the final card is played. Racism. You don’t have to prove it, you simply have to claim it to be true, by consensus. In fact, in this case, a consensus of NAACP representatives. All they have to do is claim that the movement is prodominantly white (which it is, but not moreso than the general American representation.

I can tell you of whom there are an inordinate representation in the TEA Party:
–legal immigrants who have actually seen first hand the results of the spectre of Socialism brought before them by the current Administration.
–people of all walks of life concerned that the country is being destroyed before their eyes.
–people whose federal representation is clearly ignoring the collective (not even personal!) will in their district.

I don’t know what your mamma taught you when you were a child, but last time I heard, truth doesn’t depend on what fraction of the populace believes or claims something is true. I also heard as I child that one should never claim something is true unless you have proof. Good evidence. Something.

The NAACP consensus bear no real weight, except for those that might take the NAACP at its word. Precious few, if there’s any sense left in this country.

just who do they represent.
I know of no one, besides Micheal Jackson, who has been colored.
Everyone I know were born the color that they are.
So I guess there are no “colored” people after all.
It would be nice if they just represented plain ole’ Americans.

I tought I had this whole racism thing figured out, but clearly, I am misinformed. Consider the following:

Milik Shabazz of the New Black Panther Party praises Osama Bin Laden, Al Queda, and the Taliban.

The White House announces that Al Queda is a racist organization.

The NAACP passes a resolution denouncing racism within the Tea Party, without mentioning the racism within the New Black Panther Party.

Whoopi Goldberg stops short of calling Mel Gibson a racist despite clear evidence to the contrary.

I wish those responsible for defining racism in our country would get together and publish a set of rules so the rest of us could know what we’re supposed to do, lest we be accused of racism.

It’s all about some of those signs at Tea Party events. When the quasi-leader of a Tea Party event has a poster with the word “niggar” on it, there’s going to be some backlash. And there was some other eyebrow-raising signage too.
There’s no way to prevent such excesses in open movements. You just have to condemn it, reject it, but ultimately live with it.

(saw this on the net!)

OBAMA AVOIDS BIBLE VERSES !

Here are some Bible verses that Pres. Obama avoids:
Proverbs 19:10 (NIV): “It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury – how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!”
Also Proverbs 30:22 (NIV) which says that the earth cannot bear up under “a servant who becomes king.”
And Ecclesiastes 5:2-3 (KJV) advises: “let thy words be few…a fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.”
Although Obama is not descended from slaves, he may feel that he’s destined to become a black-slavery avenger.
Or maybe an enslaver of all free citizens!

When you make such a big deal out to denounce claims that are at best questionable, you lose your credibility. IMHO. the old phrase, pick your battles comes to mind.

Anarchists, Code Pink, leftover hippies, et. al. appear all over with hate signs of Bush as Hitler, or Bush being hanged, or keying parked cars, setting buildings on fire, and calling for total chaos, but if the tea parties have one person in 100,000 with a sign that says “Obama is a dope” then somehow we have to feel guilty for “violence” and “racism.” ???
On the other hand, I think most people are inured to being called vicious names because that’s all the left has done for a couple generations. It wears really thin. Maybe the NAACP doesn’t get out much, but few people are going to cower and cringe because a bunch of professional whiners (once a grear ogranization as once the ACLU helped end segregation in the South) make some idiot statement.

The left had already established their rule that women cannot be feminists unless they murder babies, apparently that is now a requirement for Blacks as well. For leftists it really is “all about the children.”

When I watched this video, and I heard all those black patriots stating that they were out with their family and calling the TEA Party their people, My eyes began leaking.

Bravo, Great video and thank you for posting this Tabitha!

GOD BLESS AMERICA and it’s citizens, even those who are working against us.

Yeah, I’m a white guy who supported the black guys forty-fifty years ago. REPUBLICANS passed the Civil Rights Act, while LBJ’s Democrats voted against it. LINCOLN (R-Illinois) made the Emancipation Proclamation. I make no apologies.

Obama won, and Jesse Jackson cried. NOT because a black man was elected President by a lot of white people, but because America elected a black President, and the NAACP can never again say “the establishment [white people] is keeping us down.”

Yeah, MY white friends (I got shanghaied by parents for a vacation) really were spit upon while marching with Martin Luther King through Berwyn [Chicago Suburb]. Despite a $100,000 reward, NOBODY has stepped up with a video that ANY of the Tea Party hurled spit or epithets at anybody in the Congressional Black Caucus (which they claim to be true).

I am sure that there are people in every movement that are racist. While I was tutoring on the West side of Chicago under the supervision of the Viceroys, a couple of Black Panthers told me, flat out, that they intended to kill white people. I seemed to be (fortunately) exempt at the time.

I haven’t noticed any signs among the Tea Party protestors that refer to race. I remember many among Bush protestors that accused the previous President of being a Nazi. Protestor signs over the years tend to call Presidents either Nazis or Marxists.

Should they accept the accolade, I would commend the NAACP of electing the first Black President. It remains to be determined if he’s any better than the previous white guys. Take a premise, folks: they (Presidents) are all the same.

Gee, isn’t that a blow to prejudice?

About ten percent of the House are black, representing about 12 percent of the US population. Only one Senator remains: Roland Burris, replacing Barack Obama. Wait until the Hispanics catch up … they are the new minority.

I don’t see the NAACP standing up for “Brown,” “Yellow,” “Red,” or even “White” people. They seem to have lost their rainbow. Where is their comment about the Iroquois loosing visas?

I am sorry, the NAACP is irrelevant.

…..go to waste as cover for and distraction from illegal and/ or impeachable activity. Keep the Tea drinkers in the spotlight, Ben. Can ya do that for us?
And so we ask once again: Who has access to Obama’s Blackberry?

This is coming from the guy who said the same thing to those who blanket-labelled opponents of the Iraq War as “un-American”, btw.
