NAACP Flunks GOP Legislators
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 12 May 2012 | John Semmens

Posted on 05/13/2012 3:29:21 PM PDT by John Semmens

The latest National Association for the Advancement of Colored People annual Civil Rights Legislative Report Card gives every Republican member of the U.S. House and Senate a failing grade.

NAACP President, Benjamin Jealous, explained the grades saying “the GOP has consistently opposed advancing the interests of African Americans. Their argument that they want a ‘color blind’ rule of law explicitly rejects the idea of special help for our people. Equal opportunity is not enough to compensate us for centuries of slavery and oppression.”

Jealous suggested that the GOP might improve future grades by helping pass reparations legislation. “Incalculable harm was done to our ancestors,” Jealous said. “If we took every last dime a white man earned in his lifetime it wouldn’t repay the damages caused by his ancestors. Many generations would need to toil to pay off this debt. Voting to get started on retiring this debt might move the GOP up to a grade of ‘D.’”

I heard the unions/Communist Party is giving them failing grades too! Oh well, we’ve already got one DemocRAT Party to worry about. We sure as hell don’t need another one.

Well, as much as I suspect the NAACP knows more about failing grades than most on this one they simply are projecting.

That’s not satire. Unfortunately.

The NAALCP would give a failing grade to any Republican worthy of the name.

You missed another famous Republican the NAACP fails to acknowledge... Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

After Ted Kennedy hand picked a director for the NAACP, referring to him as “Southern Irish”, I knew the organization was closer to the Communist Party than any political party, other than the Dims.

The there are several GREAT Blacks, including Col A. West, on whom the Black Caucus turned their backs.

These kinds of stupid activities make the NAACP more irrelevant every day.
