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.

This is starting to have a reverse effect. I have never been racist but when the NAACP keeps telling me I am it starts to have that effect.

Now that the NAACP has given us a heads-up on what they plan to do, we must turn our backs to them, ignore them and conduct ourselves as usual.

This is how you deal with race-baiters. Shoot em’ down in print when it is called for, but, otherwise, ignore them. They're itchin’ for a fight, and they're trying to get in our faces. Keep a discreet eye on them in particular, and ignore them in general.

It’s official the NAACP just took the lead in the racist anti-white crisis.

This may be off topic, but I have to tell you about something that happened to me yesterday.

I was sitting in an outside teller lane of the local Bank of America, when a black man of about 50 something (well dressed and driving a nice SUV) drove up in the lane next to me. He started staring at me, then addressing me. Due to the traffic noise, I could only catch certain words and phrases. Among them; ‘You think you better?’..’whites’..’We’re in charge’...’You gonna get your comeuppance’...
I rolled up the window and was about to call the teller for security when he drove off.

What set this guy off? Was I, a young white female in her father’s caddy- an easy target for his hate?
I did nothing/said nothing to this man.
I’ve never encountered anything like this in my life, and I was really getting frightened.

Attacks on whites seem to be growing daily.
Empowered by Obama, it is only going to get worse.

Exactly!! Breitbart should set up a site dedicated to getting audio/video of leftists spewing racist rants and acts of sabotage at tea party events. He would need several servers to support all the files though.

Whenever you are passing a liberal event, take pictures of any racist or Nazi signs. Submit them to teapartytracker.org and see if they will post them. Of course, you can’t tell them where the photo was really taken.

It would be great of we could get them to post lots of left wing fanatic pictures thinking that they are from Tea Party events.

Bald-faced lie.
