I have a black friend whose friend was going to Africa on a tour. She asked the other woman to bring her back a baggie of dirt from the mother country.

Since there are few things more racist than lying about another race, and since the NAACP is lying about white (in the NAACP’s perception) Tea partiers, the NAACP is a racist organization. Case closed.

Too many of your rank and file are good people who have done great work in the past.

The good people you describe need to leave the NAA(L)CP and join CORE.

The Tea Party has no problems nor issues with race. It’s mostly about big spending and big government. Poking fun at President Obama is fair play.

That's no different than me asking an acquaintance visiting Ireland to bring me back a scrap of the Ould Sod! We can find plenty of real issues to call them on.

So what will violence accomplish? Zero. Let your enemy be violent, if they’re stupid enough to resort to that. You can win more politically by being non-violent.

"I think at one time, the NAACP was an organization of honorable people trying to do good."

NAACP was founded by international socialists and marxists.

Do you know your history? The assassination of ArchDuke Ferdinand was accomplished by one Gavrilo Princip, 19 at the time, a member of Young Bosnia and one of a group of assassins organized by the Black Hand. Sheer dumb luck rather than purpose and organization allowed Princip to succeed that day.

No one could have predicted the consequences of such an act, although Europe had been teetering on the brink of conflagration for some time. ArchDuke Ferdinands assassination jsut happened to be the precipitating factor. Hence, the allusion to Barbara Tuchman's brilliant The Guns of August.

America is no less on the brink of something dreadful and there are those who have been working for generations and with a will at destabilizing this nation. Who and to what end, you ask? As I have said, there are those who would rather rule in hell from atop a pile of rubble and corpses than leave us alone to live in peace. These are monsters, killers without conscience.

So here's your picture: I will not fire the first shot - that will come from the monsters on the Machiavellian, Gramscian Left. But I will do my utmost to be the one to fire the last one. These monsters have a goal: millions of us dead and the rest in chains. They've said as much.

As to your assertion that "can win more politically by being non-violent," that preseumes two things: Fisrt, that there is a political solution to be had, and second, that our opponents are rational human beings with rational self-interest based upon a shared set of values to which we may appeal.

I submit that neither case is true. Remember who we're dealing with. Lee Harris concludes his Civilization and Its Enemies with this:

"...we must all struggle to overcome the collective tendency of civilized men and women to forgetfulness. For that, in truth, is the ultimate question facing us today. Can the West overcome the forgetfulness that is the nemesis of every successful civilization? If it can, then there is hope that mankind will be able to move forward to a higher stage of historical development. If it cannot, then the next stage of history will be one that we once hoped never to see again.
I know the answer to that question. The memory of how we got here, how we achieved our freedom and at what cost has been systematically purged from the general consciousness. Not necessarily from ours, but from that of many of our countrymen. Harris' concluding sentence is the price that we will all pay for that forgetfulness...

The race-obsessed will always see racism where ever they look. And the DNC is (rightfully) burdened with its historical bad conscience, which means that among Democrats charges of racism sting and sting badly. So they see it everywhere they look, because thats how they see the world, and its an effective weapon among them because again thats how they see the world.

They don’t understand people who aren’t obsessed by race, don’t see the world that way, don’t have a bad conscience on the subject, and really don’t care what color you are one way or the other. Principles, character, philosophy, track record, these things matter to a conservative. The color of the package is of little or no interest, its the content.

If you love what we love you are one of us. Dems will never get that.

What about resolutions that condemn out of wedlock children, or about ending dropouts? All these stupid resolutions and no work.
