When is the NAACP going to act responsibly, and when is this organization going to get rid of this Turkey?


NAACP chairman compares GOP to Nazis
Bond delivers blistering partisan speech in North Carolina

Posted: February 2, 2006

Civil rights activist and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond delivered a blistering partisan speech at Fayetteville State University in North Carolina last night, equating the Republican Party with the Nazi Party and characterizing Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and her predecessor, Colin Powell, as "tokens."

"The Republican Party would have the American flag and the swastika flying side by side," he charged.

Calling President Bush a liar, Bond told the audience at the historically black institution that this White House's lies are more serious than the lies of his predecessor's because Clinton's lies didn't kill people.

"We now find ourselves refighting old battles we thought we had already won," he said. "We have to fight discrimination whenever it raises its ugly head."

He referred to former Attorney General John Ashcroft as J. Edgar Ashcroft. He compared Bush's judicial nominees to the Taliban.

The talk so infuriated at least one black family in attendance among the 900 in the auditorium that they got up in walked out in protest.

"He went on and on name calling," said Lee Wilson. "I walked out in the middle of his speech with my wife and three kids"

The harsh partisan rhetoric from Bond should not have surprised anyone who has followed him in recent years.

In July 2001, Bond said, "[Bush] has selected nominees from the Taliban wing of American politics, appeased the wretched appetites of the extreme right wing, and chosen Cabinet officials whose devotion to the Confederacy is nearly canine in its uncritical affection."

While the GOP is sucking our pockets dry with their favors to k-street and their own pork filled coffers - The term Nazi is way too extreme - for the GOP to be considered nazi like they would have to be more efficient and we all know that ain't possible considering runawy deficits and an inability to serve the people with anything resembling a higher purpose.

Well - under republicans we have runnaway government spending with a bloated and much larger government machine that does less and less for us and more and more for the well connected, pork piled sky high in GOP districts, deficits climbing to the moon and beyond, corruption and scandal after GOP scandal filling the air waves and newspaper pages - this has to cost us - the US Taxpayer a lot of money - so I rest my case. he ones spending the money are usually the ones who control the purse strings - the republicans.

And all of this information came from many of John Ls posts!

The true facists are neocons running this administration, using Bush like a hand puppet - they are outside the normal political mainstream.

You're wasting your time with this fool Vagrant. He has no specifics to back up his absurd allegations. He's just another left wing zombie parroting the sh!t he hears on Airhead America. I tried pinning him down once and his response was to ignore me. Truly pathetic.

Here is James Taranto's piece in the Wall Stree Journal about why the MSM did such a poor job of reporting it initially. This is why the MSM is losing it's influence, step by coniving step.


Whitewashing a Black Leader
Julian Bond, chairman of the NAACP, spoke Wednesday at North Carolina's Fayetteville State University during an event kicking off Black History Month. News 14 Carolina, a local cable-news network, did a feel-good story about this "civil rights icon" and NAACP recruitment:

QUOTE
Bond said NAACP membership is alive and well. It has nearly 500,000 members. . . .

"I thought that it would be a good opportunity to have a more prominent role in my community," Victoria Ruffin, also a NAACP member, explained.

Bond said it's a positive attitude that lures more young people in. And it's those growing numbers that will help fight future racial discrimination.


The Fayetteville Observer described the speech:

QUOTE
Civil rights activist and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond told a crowd at Fayetteville State University on Wednesday that the fight for equal rights is not over.

"We now find ourselves refighting old battles we thought we had already won," he said. "We have to fight discrimination whenever it raises its ugly head." . . .

Bond spoke for 45 minutes, and his speech was interrupted several times by applause as he jabbed at the Bush administration. Bond's address was part of FSU's Distinguished Speakers Series and helped kick off Black History Month.

"We have a president who talks like a populist and governs for the privileged," Bond said.


A little partisan jab is no big deal, but WorldNetDaily has an account of the speech that conveys quite a different tone:

He referred to former Attorney General John Ashcroft as J. Edgar Ashcroft. He compared Bush's judicial nominees to the Taliban.


Isn't it newsworthy when the leader of a venerable organization like the NAACP engages in such over-the-top, crackpot rhetoric? (Or, if you're an over-the-top crackpot and think Bond was right, isn't it newsworthy that the leader of a venerable organization like the NAACP is telling the truth about the evil Chimpy W. Hitliar?)

Why did the local media ignore Bond's crazy talk? (The speech doesn't seem to have received any national attention outside WND and cable chat shows.) The most likely explanation, it seems to us, is that they recognized the talk as crazy and felt it would be invidious, inflammatory or both to depict a respected black leader as crazy--even though doing so would have been merely a matter of quoting his own words.

What we end up with, then, is a double message, very much like Yasser Arafat* talking peace in English while inciting hatred in Arabic--except that in this case Bond is speaking a language everyone understands, and reporters, whose job is to report the facts, are instead concealing them. Bond's mostly black audience at Fayetteville hears his message of division and resentment, while the broader public is told that he has a "positive attitude" and is engaged in a "fight for equal rights."

And then people scratch their heads and try to figure out why blacks' political attitudes are so different from those of nonblacks.

* The haughty, Fre--oh wait, sorry. Arafat, who won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1994, is in stable condition after dying at a Paris hospital.

I'm not ignoring you anymore! This is too much fun!

LOL! Riiiight Gonad! And I invited you to talk man to man and you hid away like some frightented little child - I even provide my phone number and I made an overture to see if you could put your money where your mouth is when you called me a liar about my sons and their being in the military and you slunk away like the slimy little slug you are, leaving a slime trail in these pages as if your soul was leaking anything resembling a human being. Gonad - you are such a friggin coward and I mean that in every sense of the word!

I gotta stop laughing here - hard to type like this!

Back to topic - Prove to me one thing - If I'm so wrong - put your money where that big, greasy toothless pie hole of yours is and point out exactly where I'm wrong with my statement to Vagrant.

Please tell us all - show me where I'm wrong? Come on Gonad - show the world just how smart you are...

Where am I wrong? Show me. Come on little Gonad - show us all!

Talk about pathetic! You cowardly little grease ball. smile.gif

PS - Little Gonad here is such a chicken sh-it that he could not even answer my PMs and begged me not to PM him any more - I can imagine with that girlie little mouth of his him on his knees saying to the computer, please make the big bad man go away - Wah wah wah!. And by saying that I don't mean to insult girls - but nothing explains his total lack of cahonas and even less, not even a smidgen of inteligence.

LOL! What a puss!

How Exactly is the GOP sucking your pockets dry?

And again I ask to to PROVE that you are paying more taxes under Bush then you were under Clinton.

You have not answered either one of these assertions except with talking points you got from Airhead America.

SPECIFICS, Brownman, SPECIFICS.

Taxes? I never said anything about taxes durring this post - I said the Gop is sucking us dry. Period.

You think bloated and an engorged federal government, Katrina recovery costs, war costs and higher military expenditures, unlimited GOP pork barrel spending - huge federal and trade deficits that have grown under Bush as well as the request to push up the US Debt ceiling, huge tax cuts for the rich and for Oil companies, is free? Do you really think this is so?

But - Ah - I see this is how you work. You can't answer a question - a direct question so you turn it back in my direction and then accuse me of not answering. I already went through this with you in two other topics so look it up in the Bearpit Archives. I answered these very question and supported my contention already in great details.

I can't help you if your so stupid to remember a conversation we had a couple of weeks ago...

Personallly I don't have time for stupid kids.

I wonder what would have happened if someone had thrown a pie in this @sswipe Bonds face or threw salad dressing at him the way these enlightened libs do with a conservative speaker such as Ann Coulter.

Greyman, this is over the line. A certain amount of anomosity toward other members will be tolerated here given the nature of politics but this is not the first time your posts have contained juvinile invectives and a decided lack of maturity. Your ice here is beginning to thin.
