NAACP launches coalition watchdog site to ‘monitor’ Tea Party ‘racists’
The Daily Caller ^ | 9-2-10 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 09/02/2010 9:00:41 AM PDT by Justaham

The NAACP partnered with Media Matters, Think Progress and New Left Media to launch teapartytracker.org, a website that will specifically publish and monitor “racism and other forms of extremism within the Tea Party movement.”

Media Matters and Think Progress representatives said their content and reporting haven’t changed and that the NAACP approached their organizations seeking only to republish select content they’ve produced. The NAACP’s new teapartytracker.org is aimed specifically at highlighting “racism” in the Tea Party.

New Left Media, the duo of Chase Whiteside and Erick Stoll who use a “Trojan trick” to get interviews with Tea Partiers, is also a partner organization on the new site.

As for what Media Matters, New Left Media, Think Progress and the NAACP plan to do with teapartytracker.org, Think Progress editor Faiz Shakir and Media Matters Vice President for Research and Communications Ari Rabin-Havt said the NAACP contacted them about sharing content related to the Tea Party.

Shakir said the website isn’t meant to attack the Tea Party, only to “hold it accountable.”

“When they display intolerance and the kinds of racial signs that we’ve seen and the kinds of angry rhetoric, there’s nobody pushing back on that rhetoric or to check the record or fact-check it,” Shakir said. “I think it [the website] should be viewed in light of the NAACP being opposed to the intolerant elements of the Tea Party.”

Conservative media guru Andrew Breitbart, who was once a victim of New Left Media’s trickery (though he says he doesn’t object to that type of journalism), said Think Progress and Media Matters shouldn’t, by any means, partner with an advocacy group, especially the NAACP, in trying to the paint the Tea Party a certain color.

"The NAACP partnered with Media Matters, Think Progress and New Left Media to launch teapartytracker.org, a website that will specifically publish and monitor “racism and other forms of extremism within the Tea Party movement.”

So bigotry, racism and hate will be focused to project these attitudes and behaviors on the objects of their hatred.

IOW, run-of-the-mill Soros funded "Progressive" effort.

How true. The NAACP will never allow the black community to progress. In order to be relevant they must keep black America in the 50s & 60s. In the same way the PLO and Hammas will never allow ME peace. If they did they’d become instantly redundant.

We should have a watchdog site to monitor all the mentally disturbed lefties that have been crawling out of the woodwork every week to commit violent attacks.

Go for it.

Waste your time and money.

I think they can look all they want. And when they catch themselves supplying infiltrators and plants at the Tea Parties to make us look bad, then they can report themselves too.

Then, they can all go and do something else with themselves too. But I’ll leave it to you to guess what I mean.

sometimes that pic stays up,
sometimes it gets pulled.

I really think it’s demonstrative of the perpetually aggrieved state of the “community”.

Have you seen the one with the one white guy in the back right photoshopped over with the “looter guy”?

Who is watching these ROEs (Race Oriented Entity)?

NAACP
National Black Caucus
New Black Panther Party
etc.,

If you define your organization by race, are you not by definition racist?

That is why there is NOT a National Association for the Advancement of White People, the National White Caucus, or the White Panthers.

Use common sense here people to identify the true racists among us.

So what. I’m already a racist because I’m white, and conservative, and I have “cracka” babies.

“When they display intolerance and the kinds of racial signs that we’ve seen and the kinds of angry rhetoric"

There's nothing liberals are more protective of, with the possible exception of their "right" to kill unborn babies, than anyone being seen as using any of their patented activities.

Of course, when they display intolerance, racial signs or signs with cross-hairs or Hitler mustaches on the president's face then it is anyone who criticizes them for it who is the hater.

If there is one thing that is consistent about Progressives it is inconsistent logic.

Progressive politics today personifies the classic Baby Boomer mentality: "It's all about what I want, and I'm justified in throwing a tantrum aimed at anyone who I think stands in the way of me getting everything that makes me feel good about me.

Because me feeling good about me is all that matters."

Man, they have a black pres—ent, a black AG, and they feel the need to monitor whites. At what point will these morons recognize they are the problem? Shoosh. I would advise hiring monitors to monitor the monitors since they have a history of making sh*t up.

OK so who’s up for launching an NAACP tracker and attending and recording all meetings to show who is really the racists?

It would only make sense now for the Conservatives to have a watchdog group to monitor the watchdog group of racists known as the NAA(L)CP along with MOVEON et al.

Nothing wrong with that. Sure, they’ll entice, beguile, or trick some Partier into saying something stupid, then hold it up as an example of an attitude that permeates the movement. That little piece of transparent skullduggery is a given. But we need to keep the “watchdogs” honest. So wherever a damning incident is cited let’s make sure we tell “the rest of the story”.

Be wary of strangers who seem bent on goading you into some kind of racist rant. But don’t let the enemy sow distrust in our ranks either. That too is one of his tricks.

The Tea Party movement is against Big Government (which means Big Taxes). It is a repudiation of government acting like a thug.

The NAALCP and organizations like it WANT taxes, because that is how they see "their people" getting their hands on other people's money through confiscation of those who have it, to give away programs to those who want it. It is "stealth reparations."

And....that is the whole conflict in a nutshell. Until people understand that, they won't get the big picture.

The "racism" screech is simply a tactic.

In the end, it is all about power (theirs) and money (yours).

"The Watched Teapot Never Boils"

Their 'logo' at the top of the page. Think about that. If you are going to "watch" something so you can report on it, then why "watch" if it never boils. Another well-thought-out lib slogan. These people amaze me.
