I was considering pulling down the bit in the post under about Ms. Shirley Sherrod, the USDA agent fired for racism. But up on further review, the play will stand as called. Ms. Sherrod’s actions with regard to the white farmer were racist. Irrespective of when they occurred or how she now feels about what she did 20 years ago, what she did was clearly racist. I suspect that Ms. Sherrod, if not a dues paying member of the NAACP at the time of her dealings with white farmer, was at least a supporter of that organization.
So Lex’s point that the NAACP is and has been populated with a number of racist is accurate. The good news for the NAACP and America is that Ms. Sherrod has had a conversion. The bad news is that the Revs? JJ, Notso Sharp-ton and Wright, Rep Lewis and the Tea Party 3, the New/Old Black Panthers have not.
The NAACP has NO business calling any other organization in America racist. And isn’t being called a racist today sort of like being called a conservative? When idiots like Janeane Garofalo– or as Mark Levin refers to her God-awful-o – and other know nothings toss the word around like baseballs during spring training, it really does lose its sting.
When everyone who disagrees with P-BO for any reason is labeled a racist, when people who stand up for smaller, more accountable, less onerous federal government are labeled racists, when people who shout their disappointment that best basketball player in the league is leaving town for another team are labeled a racist, when the first line of defense of any lib losing an argument is to label the other guy a racist, well I begin to think maybe racists aren’t all bad.
I begin to think, well they cast such a wide net, who cares if a Lib calls you a racist. It’s unavoidable with Libs. It is going to happen. It’s as predictable as a 5 year old shouting, “It’s not fair!” when something doesn’t go his way.
The NAACP issues a resolution against the Tea Party calling them racist while real racists, like New Black Panther leader and cracker baby killing advocate King Dope Samir Shabazzzzzzzz gets away with uh mmm…murder. The NAACP is so afraid of the political fall out for the nation’s first half black president from the Tea Party that they will ignore 99.89% of the evidence about the organization and instead focus on the one or two SEIU plants to hurl accusations of racism at them.
And make no mistake that is the only thing these charges of racism are about – politics NOT racism plain and simple. They have nothing what-so-ever to do with real racism. The left just wants people to shut up. Ignoring the Tea Party didn’t work. Calling them an Astroturf organization of wealthy old white people didn’t work. Portraying them as whacko loons way out of the mainstream of American political thought didn’t work. Hurling vulgar slurs at them and sending in SEIU thugs to beat a few of them up didn’t work. Now it’s time for the big gun. Libs are calling the Tea Party racist to shut them up. It won’t work. Nearly everyone in America has been labeled a racist for some reason since P-BO took office and began “the healing” between the races. As a result, race relations in America have worsened and being called a racist in today’s climate means less then nothing.
Oh yeah, Ms. Sherrod should get her job back. She showed courage in talking about her conversion from being a racist. She didn't have to share the story. She did it to make a point. Does anyone want to be held accountable for everything they did or said 20 year ago? I'm more interested in where she is now than where she was 20 years ago. The Revs? JJ, Notso Sharp-ton and Wright, Rep Lewis and the Tea Party 3, the New/Old Black Panthers should take a note from Ms. Sherrod.
