and being a puppet, he should know, right?

Wonder when the black community will realize that the NAACP is actually encouraging and strengthening the grips of economic oppression on them? The very people the NAACP are denigrating here have broken out of the oppression that is the welfare state and have become successful. They are *gasp* capable of independent thought and economic prosperity.

When will history render it's verdict on these economic and cultural pimps?

Was it Justice Clarence Thomas who made the statement about how it was racist to claim all blacks looked alike, but accepted today that they all must think alike? I'm bungling the quote... he said it much more artfully. It was a powerful statement, I thought.

"Anyone who doesn't toe the party line (such as myself; such as Cosby, based on his recent comments) is persona-non-gratis."

Actually, anyone who doesn't allow the NAACP to pull their strings is a puppet.

How's that for twisted reasoning?

[TexasCajun]

So, Colin and Condi are just house niggas to massa Bush, says the NAACP!

A racist to his own people! What a jerk!

PHILADELPHIA -- Liberal black organizations are formed and funded by white Democrats, CBC President Iam Truth said yesterday in an address to a packed ballroom at the group's annual convention here. "When the ultraliberal left-wing attacker has run out of attack strategy," Mr. Truth said, "he goes and gets someone that looks like you and me to continue the attacks." Paraphrasing a line from a 2002 speech by NAACP Chairman Julian Bond, he said, "And like the ventriloquist's dummies, they sit there in the puppet master's voice, but we can see whose lips are moving, and we can hear his money talk."

In a speech punctuated by cheers from the audience, Mr. Truth said: "They can't deal with the leaders we choose for ourselves, so they manufacture, promote and hire new ones."

Now isn't that more accurate?

They can't deal with the leaders we choose for ourselves, so they manufacture, promote and hire new ones."

Unlike the democrats who don't!!

Mfume.........Bond.............and their ilk have succeeded brilliantly in doing one thing:

Setting back race relations in this country by over 20 years.

Saving bump.

Ursa, if I said that I'd be a racist reactionary! Thank you for sharing your wisdom; now, how do I spread the word to those who look like me without appearing to support the Robert "KKK" Byrd types?

Frizzel's got his head stuck somewhere, but it sure isn't the sand. :=)

I refuse to be criticized by anyone who's name sounds like he's got too many crackers in his mouth.

You spotted the most import paragraphs in the article which you had to read through to the end. The article should have been subtitled "Doctor William Cosby restricted to performing Minstrel Show."

Some attendees sported buttons supporting Democratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry and tonight can attend a free screening of Michael Moore's Bush-bashing movie, "Fahrenheit 9/11."

Says it all. Non-partisan? Right.

[snooker]

I think their collective fit is a direct indication of where the Dems are headed, off a cliff. The problem is they know it, and can't control themselves anymore. Every leftist divisive issue they have is no longer a vote getter.

[ought-six]

Mfume is a bigot. He is a racist. He is pond scum.

[Maigrey]

Awww. When Bush won't come and play, he throws a temper tantrum at those who are playing nice.

Where's a belt when you need one?

Molly Ivins; what a vacuous twit. Ordinarily, I like to watch O'Reilly, but last night with those two, he embarrassed me.

I'm on his side on one thing, though: Julian Bond is dumber than a box of rocks.
