Here’s an excerpt from the article:

“Williams posted a mock letter to President Abraham Lincoln from Benjamin Jealous, the president of the NAACP. It came on the heels of the NAACP’s July 13 passage of a resolution calling on Tea Party leaders to repudiate racist elements of the movement.

The mock letter begins: “We Colored People have taken a vote and decided that we don’t cotton to that whole emancipation thing. Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People and we demand that it stop!” “

Okay, so he posted a mock letter from the president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in which the mock Benjamin Jealous described the group he represents as Colored People? That's what has everyone's panties in a knot?

Holy Gullibility, Batman, looks like our side fell for it again. When are we going to grow a collective spine? Our enemies, both foreign and domestic, are laughing at us.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
