#1 The NAACP ought to be looking towards the White House or the DOJ if they want to see racism.

#2 Throw in anti-Americanism and antisemitism while we are at it.

#3 Oh, this will not go over well.
It's an article of faith among the lefty-libs that the Tea Party is just the KKK without white sheets. It's been a demonstration to me of the efficacy of the "Big Lie." Tell it loud and often enough, and it becomes the popular belief through sheer force of repetition. And it doesn't matter that, as the quoted story says - that no evidence has actually emerged of racist actions.

#4 Awesome news for real racists.

Now racism won't be taken seriously.

#5 My mother went to a tea party in San Mateo, the epicenter of liberalness and was very surprised at the amount of support they got from passersby. The only people that believe the Tea Partys are racist are folks so die-hard fanatical to their liberal position nothing will change their mind.

#6 The Tea Party has its share of blacks and hispanics. This ought to be good.

#7 Ain't it funny how these guys are signing up the whole country for the same social control mechanism the Old South used? Servitude by debt?

I owe my soul to the company store."

#8 NAACP resolution will accuse the groups of engaging in racist behavior by displaying signs "intended to degrade people of color generally and President Barack Obama specifically."

Our first Mooslim president is OFF LIMITS eh? Like the New Black Panther poll watchers? Ok, I think I get it now.

#9 All this racism aimed at whites and conservatives is starting to use up my neighborliness. I'm getting a little closer to becoming exactly what I'm accused of anyway.

#10 This is expected and predictable. November election polling shows the liberal ideology running behind and losing ground; crying racism is taken from the playbook. It may not work considering the careful choice of words most Americans have been using in describing Obama the last few years.

Don't be surprise if there is infiltration of Tea Party gatherings by pretenders who show racist behavior (part 2 of the playbook).

#11 It seems Michelle had a wonderful time there.

#12 Yes, the Tea Party movement includes blacks like Kenneth Gladney, beaten and trampled and called "Nigger" by SEIU goons because he is black. Of course, the NAACP laughs at Mr. Gladney; he's just an Uncle Tom! Who are the racists here?

#13 I suspect history will show that hateful bitc* had a larger hand in what has gone on than any of us realize.

#14 Keep up the miss-informaion Michelle. Sound's pretty desperate when all you have is the race card to play, loser...

#15 It would be exceedingly stupid for the NAACP to condemn rank-and-file Americans for rising up and shaking off a tyrannical government. They will lose a lot of respect from a lot of people and become an enemy of a large portion of the people. They will be seen as siding with the tyrant and cast aside with them.

#16 "They will lose a lot of respect from a lot of people and become an enemy of a large portion of the people."

Will lose, cp?

Howzabout "have lost"?

#17 The NAACP ceased to be relevant decades ago. Even within the lefty and civil rights movements, it's an old laggard that few Dems pay attention to.

#18 Amen, Bro. I'm really getting pissed.
