NAACP Occupies Jeff Sessions' Office Demanding Withdrawal From AG Nomination
2017-01-04
[Daily Caller] The NAACP’s Alabama chapter stormed the Mobile office of Republican Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions Tuesday demanding he withdraw as President-elect Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee.

NAACP President Cornell Brooks stated the organization has no plans to leave the senator’s office until Sessions "withdraws as AG nominee or we’re arrested."
Arrest and be damned to you. Have you not been paying attention to the many Black Democratic politicians and other eminent African-Americans who have stood up to speak about their positive interactions with the gentleman in question, and how they're ashamed they didn't speak up when the Democrats smeared him so successfully last time?
Brooks released a statement following the tweet of their sit-in protest at Sessions’ office saying in part: "Senator Jefferson Beauregard Sessions is among the worst people who could serve as our nation’s Attorney General."
Doing what they do best. Sitting on their indolent arses and doing nothing.

#9  ...I dealt with the NAACP once, in 1991, when I was an Air Force recruiter. The USAF was panicking about not having enough AA recruits, so we were told to drum up some business. Among other things, I contacted the NAACP and the Urban League to see if I might speak to them as what we called 'Centers of Influence'.

The UL never did call me back. The president of the local NAACP chapter called me back (while my flight supervisor, who was black) was in the office, and proceeded to rip me a new one. He could never recommend to young AA men and women that they join an organization that not only treated them disrespectfully but would also send them to their deaths so white kids could go to college.

The boss - who had been giving me grief about dealing with these organizations and how much help they would be to us - never said another word.

So you can imagine my attitude towards this particular group of Useful Idiots.

#8  They got the publicity they wanted and further smeared one of the few men in Alabama who stepped up and fought for their rights. Bugwits.

#3  Ironically the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) hasn't been for the actual Advancement of Colored People for a number of decades.

Like the Congressional Black Caucus and the KKK its just another racist Democrat Party Organization.

#1  the NAACP certainly knows that many Blacks in Alabama have testimonials saying that Sessions is an honorable and decent person. Those people who have made these testimonials are probably getting intimidating letters and emails from the NAACP and various leftist thugs.
