"but highly probable - that the national folks honestly did not know until they were shown the proof. Like I said, they should not have thrown stones."

I agree with what you have said about national organizations vs. local organizations in a general sense. But dealing with the NAACP specifically, I personally believe that this type of attitude is systemic within the system. Just like the Acorn stuff.

When it's systemic, it's a problem from the top. The NAACP used to be a good organization, but as their main mission has clearly diminished over time due to the integration of the races in this country, it has drifted to the left and been coopted by leftist. I hope Breitbart has more to even further discredit them...

Beautiful, because one incident can be written off and thrown under the bus (even if the whole audience seems to be in agreement with her), but multiple incidents shows a systemic problem within the organization which is a reflection on the leadership. I doubt the MSM can overlook multiple incidents like they did this one.

When she gave the speech, they applauded her comments. Now they are appalled she made them? Yeah, right.

Do I hear a little Anti-Semitism creeping in there?


Feeling guilty? Don’t project your sense of guilt upon me, please.

I had not thought of that. Unofficial ‘reparations’?

Breitbart has plenty more on ACORN, still.

He is scheduled to be on Red Eye (Fox News Channel) Wednesday night.

In actuality, the reaction of the NAACP audience was far more revealing than Sherrod’s own actions. She actually had some concern about having acted poorly. The NAACP audience was cheering about the discrimination she was practicing against the farmer.
