White people don't know a damn thing about what actually goes on in black orginizations or what black leaders say to black people when talking to black people. You don't attend the meeting...you don't frequent their websites or radio shows....you just go to your favorite translators, Faux, Limbaugh, Hannity ect....and let them tell you what black leaders and black orginizations are up to. Its you all who are being led by white leaders....the O'reilly's, Limbaughs, Becks, Hannity....those are WHITE LEADERS who lead their unthinking masses to opinions about black leader and orginizations that amounts to essentially what the white masses want to hear. You don't even bother to validate that BS you hear. That is why white folks so have so little credibility and are seen as racist.

Would white people be allowed to attend meetings?

This administration hopes to create racial divide. It is the only hope Obama has.

these people stand up and claim to be supporting the blacks in their struggle against the whites, but the reality is that they are enriching themselves on the backs of the very people they profess to want to help. jessie jackson and al sharpton both waltz in when a black person supposedly felt the hand of racsim, make a huge scene, cause many problems, and then go away without doing anything else, and when the truth is found out, they refuse to apologize for their statements, and the rest of us are left to pick up the pieces. tawana brawley and the duke rape case ring a bell?

if the naacp really wanted to truly help the black community, they would properly organize these communities, and help blacks start businesses, help keep black children in school, help the black community get back to the solid family oriented community that they were back in the 1950's. they would encourage black people to get off welfare, and prove the white racists wrong when those idiots say that black people are no good.

you are hte one buying into the tripe that is spoon fed to you, not the average american.

one more thing, there is racism all over. there are idiot white people and black people and hispanic people and asian people and indian people who all hate someone because of the color of their skin. i am white, and i have friends of all races, from all over the world. i have dated minority women, because they for the most part real women with a real personality, not some fake blond with fake boobs who doesnt have an original thought in their head. i like people who accept others for who they are, not because they happen to be the right skin color.

one more thing, get rid of the hate in your life. it only tears you up inside, and it clouds your mind to what is really going on.
A person can parse scriptures from the bible and make Jesus seem evil, however, when if you are allowed and take the opportunity to read the whole bible, for yourself, its would be clear that an evil Jesus is a misrepresentation of truth. Hence, sure you can take clips and quotes from the NAACP and make any case that you want....however, what I am saying is that one has to see for themesleves and see ALL that they do and say and not just snips of it.

I agree with you. And this also applies to LULAC. But if I see LULAC and NAACP being run by mostly Caucasian people or mixed races with a white agenda then I'm going to become skeptical of the integrity of the organizations.

i agree, and i find that the vast majority of the time it is the liberals that take video and chop it up, and take quotes out of context, and chop them up, and use small segments at a time. beck at least puts up video that lasts 20-30 seconds, and quotes that are more than just a sentence or two long. so i guess it is alright for liberals to chop up someones words, and twist them around, but heaven forbid a conservative doesnt chop up the words, and give them plenty of rope to hang themselves, figuratively speaking, that would be racist.

And in some ways, it has been successful, at least from from a media coverage standpoint.

However, I believe this is nothing but a charade. I believe the NAACP is less concerned with the appearance of racism in the Tea Party, and more concerned with the prolifigation of Tea Party ideals after the November 2010 and 2012 elections.

Why? Because black people have alot to lose from a tighter brand of social and fiscal conservatism. When budget cuts are imposed at the will of newly-minted conservative legislators, the perception from the black community is that it is they who will suffer the most.

In light of the national financial situation, the NAACP simply does not have the political capital to use budget and finance considerations to rally against the Tea Party. So what do they do? They cry racism.

I see right through it, and I believe most American's with at least moderate intellect do as well.

**************************
As an aside, if you find my reasoning objectionable, i'd like to point you to this study of the Family Budget Protection Act of 2007. Therein you will find objections to budget cuts on the grounds that the black community will suffer. This is exactly why the NAACP hates fiscal conservatism and the ideals of the Tea Party.

http://www.chn.org/pdf/nulafricanamericanspdf.pdf (broken link)

I believe that the leaders of the NAACP want blacks to remain subservient, dependent, and "on the plantation", such that they have a dependent cohort to "sell" thier rationalization for failure. They don't give a damn about blacks in reality and just want to consolidate power.

Novel idea- why not

1. emphasize two parent families
2. emphasize education
3. deride teen pregnancy
4. condemn crime



"Racism" has become the easy refuge for failure of minorities in America. It is appealing, as one can attribute lack of initiative and education to "unfair" supression and "racism" and exonerates anyone from personal responsibility or failure.

Grow up. If you do not succeed in America- blame yourself. If you are comfortable with lethargy, faillure, lack of initiative, and dependency, seek the excuse of "racism" to rationalize your personal failures and you will feel better about yourself.

Well, what do you expect? It's easier to cry racist and be thrilled at the prospect of getting part of "Obama stash"...

I have NO sympathy for any group that wants others money because they don't want to put the effort in. Call me racist, call me evil Whitey. I could give a flying fig.

Do you have any proof or evidence that the majority of the cases have to do with lack of education, lethargy, and dependency?
