Debate, and discuss, just dont Bore me.
So much for NAACP and Character
Published on July 20, 2010 By Dr Guy In Politics

The title is a quote from J.C. Watts.  I know, the liberals are climbing out of the woodwork right now calling him a Nazi concentration Camp guard (Luke Visconti), or an "Uncle Tom".  Why?  Because he is not a slave on the democrat plantation who actually has a mind of his own and is not afraid to speak it.  And he is right with his statement.  Character is what you do when you think no one is looking.  And the NAACP has no character.

Recently, the august (in their own eyes) NAACP (you cannot spell out the initials unless you want to be labeled a racist) condemned the Tea Party for racism.  Or more precisely, for not condemning racism.  And their condemnation was based on hearsay, with no evidence to support their allegations.  And all the while they were laughing at Shirley Sherrod, who was being hysterically funny regaling those self appointed blow hards by telling them how she was being racist - but against just a white farmer.  And as the illiterate literati know, you cannot be a racist by discriminating against whites!  Oh NO!

But for the intelligent people (that precludes most of the race hucksters), they understand that racism can cut both ways, and does.  The New Black Panther Party is racist (but the NAACP has yet to condemn them).  Not racist like "My cousin's sister's brother's aunt Ida heard them say the 'N' word" (as is the case of their condemnation of the Tea Party), but as in on tape hate filled rhetoric by one of their top leaders - and apparently getting affirmation from the audience.  Nope, that is not good enough to earn the scorn of the NAACP.

Nor is Shirley Sherrod's diatribe about discriminating against a farmer because his tan was not dark enough.  That one got laughs - at the NAACP convention!  And nary a peep out of the NAACP (except the laughter).  They thought no one was looking.  But of course in this day and age, unless you are in a lead lined coffin, you have to assume some one is looking.  Except for the stupid people that still can't get that right.

Mark Williams, a former head of a splinter of the tea party was ousted from the organization for calling the NAACP a racist organization.  So I guess the Tea Party is just another Political Organization.  Where telling the truth is definitely against the standards of decorum.  He is right.  At one time the NAACP was a noble organization that sought to bring about Martin Luther King's dream.  But as we see now, it is just another race huckstering racist organization that cares nothing for the ideals of King, but instead is only interested in suckling at the teat of political power of the Democrat party.  Still the most racist organization in this country.

It's unclear whether Breitbart edited the video or was originally given only the edited version.

There is little question that the video, even the 'full' version, is somewhat embarrassing to the NAACP.

The alleged 'full' version has at least one edit.

Jealous was present for Sherrod's speech, so presumably aware of the 'full' version, making exactly what the NAACP 'fell for' a bit murky.

Sherrod was fired before any broadcast outlet, Fox or otherwise, ran the video.

The fat lady has yet to begin warming up.

Bahu Virupaksha
The most damaging part of this episode is that the credibility of bloggers is called into question. By deliberately editing the speech the right wing blogger tried to embarass the NAACP. Unfortunately the organisation fell for it and now it turns out that the lady wasd quite innocent. It reminds me of the Lois Gates episode.

You missed that one Bahu.   First, Brietbart is not a "blog" in the conventional sense, but an alternate news source (the alternate media).  Second, he did not edit the video.  No one edited the video.  Someone did do an outtake on part of the video.  So the part that was displayed was accurate, but the context was lost due to the parts that were not shown.  And finally, from the testimony we have to date, it was not breitbart who did it.  Clearly his video was not the one on the NAACP site.  It is grainier and not as crisp and probably taken from a cell phone.  As such the one who took the video is most likely the one that cut it and then gave the cut part to Breitbart.

And there was no "try" to embarrass the NAACP.  As Yoda said, "do or do not, there is no try".  This was a do.  The NAACP was first embarrassed by their reaction which is clear in both videos (did you even watch them?).  They were reveling in the misfortune of the "white farmer" before Shirley Sherrod came back to make her point (the laughter is evident).  Second, Ben Jealous WAS AT THE SPEECH!  Yet even after hearing it first hand (and probably laughing at the (in)appropriate moment), he still condemned her!

Again, this blog was about the NAACP.  I did write condescendingly of Sherrod and have since apologized and retracted that small part of this blog.  This blog was mainly about the Racism of the NAACP - and that is not retracted, redacted or in any way minimized by the subsequent revelations.  I know English is not your first language, but you do very well in it.  I would suggest you go back and reread the original post as your comment is talking about the price of rice in China.

Very good summation of the major points.  And the subject of this blog.
