THE JOKE THAT THE NAACP HAS BECOME...
Well ya know, it would seem to me that the National Association for the Abortion of Colored People (NAACP) becomes just a little bit more of a joke with each passing day. It would also seem that those in charge long ago made the conscious decision to alter the group's mission to one less about civil rights and much more about leftist political advocacy. These days it operates like most other front groups that operate under the umbrella of the Democrat Party. It also, some time ago, demonstrated that it's very comfortable with throwing black folks under the bus in exchange for being able to maintain a seat at the DNC table. The bad thing, at least for those very same black folks, is that they still haven't yet figured that out.
Anyway, the most recent example that makes very obvious the decline that this once venerable organization continues to experience, was demonstrated by the calls that came from its Missouri chapter demanding that a federal investigation be launched into the rodeo clown who donned a Barry "Almighty" mask at the state fair last week. It was then a Texas Republican congressman, acting as the voice of reason, who stated that such calls are both misguided and blatantly hypocritical. U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman, who has since invited the clown who wore the mask to perform in Texas, said the request for probes into the incident by the Justice Department and Secret Service are "silly" and should be ignored. I have to agree!
Stockman went on to say, "A rodeo clown is really a nominal thing and it hurt no one." Adding, "They didn’t speak out when George Bush was being portrayed as a murderer. To become relevant again, they need to become more of an honest broker and not have contrived anger." Stockman said the NAACP would better serve its constituents by focusing on ways to decrease unemployment among the black community. But to focus on such things, there must first be in interest in such things. He also noted that the national civil rights group was silent after a July incident on a Florida bus where three black teens beat a fellow white student. We shouldn't be surprised, that's the way this group operates nowadays.
"It’s really patently false that they’re angry at this, but not angry at other issues," Stockman continued. "There has to be some consistency." And while Stockman did say that he thinks it’s unlikely federal officials will investigate the matter, with a racist like Holder running the Justice Department, and another racist in the Oval Office, one can never be too sure about such things.. And he made the point saying, "We can’t get the Justice Department to look at Benghazi, so it would be ironic that the Justice Department would investigate a clown." Going on to say, "They should focus on their member’s needs rather than theatrics." Still, the rodeo clown has been widely condemned for his supposed off-color act.
And then it was on Wednesday that yet another brilliant White House spokesmoron, this time it was Josh Earnest, said the rodeo clown incident was "not one of the finer moments" for The Show-Me State. "I haven’t heard about the president’s reaction or if he had one," Earnest told reporters. "I can tell you as a native Missourian, it was certainly not one of the finer moments for our state and not the way I like to see our state depicted in the news." Big freakin deal. And if Barry was anywhere near being an adult, he would have come out publically right away and said, come on folks, let's not take ourselves too seriously, here. But I think we can all agree that that this punk ain't gonna being doing anything like that.
Stockman said widespread reports of Saturday’s bull riding event at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia was an example of what he calls "pop news," or silly distractions that take us away from serious issues facing the country. And Barry, I'm sure, is just loving this, because it takes attention away from yet another one of his costly vacations, and his rather idiotic blunder regarding his inept handling of the events in Egypt. But still, the clown has been permanently banned from future state fair events and, as stupid as this sounds, subsequent performers must now undergo sensitivity training. Messages seeking comment from Justice Department and NAACP officials were not immediately returned Thursday.
And to be perfectly honest here, I was really kinda shocked to hear Jehmu Greene, a Fox News contributor and a supposed Democrat strategist, in demonstrating what was one her rare moments of sanity and of actually being fairly lucid, say that she actually agreed with Stockman’s take that the call for a federal probe was unwarranted. It’s far from the first time a sitting commander-in-chief has been mocked, she said. "Absolutely it is misguided," she said during an appearance on Fox News. "The NAACP has jumped the shark on this one." Usually this nut is all for investigating any incident no matter how racially insignificant. But she may yet change her mind.
So anyway, it's pretty sad, but this is where the NAACP is at today. And it kinda makes you wonder if the majority of blacks see it the same way, or if they even care anymore. Whenever I see any of these supposed NAACP 'leaders', and I use the term rather loosely, strutting around in their $3000 suits, I can't help but wonder what it is that your average black guy sees. Does he really see someone who's on his side and out there fighting for him? Because that certainly isn't what's taking place. Oh, these race baiters say all the right things, I suppose, but it's a whole different story when they get behind closed doors. It's then that they become willing accomplices in making sure that the Democrats maintain the dependency class that's so crucial to they're being able to win elections.
