Michelle Obama Rouses NAACP Before Vote Condemning 'Racist' Elements of Tea Party Tea Party Leaders Say Political Motivation Driving NAACP Agenda

First Lady Michelle Obama brought renewed energy to the NAACP today, delivering the keynote speech at the annual convention one day before the nation's largest civil rights group is expected to condemn what it calls racist elements in the Tea Party movement.

The nation's largest and oldest civil rights organization will vote on the resolution Tuesday during its annual convention in Kansas City, Mo. In addition to jobs and the economy, anti-Tea Party activism has been a large focus of the gathering, a charge that conservative leaders say is driven solely by a political agenda.

In her speech, the first lady focused on the issue of childhood obesity and her "Let's Move" initiative, but outside of her remarks, anti-Tea Party activism has been a key focus of the gathering, which conservative leaders say is driven solely by a political agenda.

Tea Party members have used "racial epithets," have verbally abused black members of Congress and threatened them, and protestors have engaged in "explicitly racist behavior" and "displayed signs and posters intended to degrade people of color generally and President Barack Obama specifically," according to the proposed resolution.

"We're deeply concerned about elements that are trying to move the country back, trying to reverse progress that we've made," NAACP spokeswoman Leila McDowell told ABC News. "We are asking that the law-abiding members of the Tea Party repudiate those racist elements, that they recognize the historic and present racist elements that are within the Tea Party movement."

When Michelle Obama wants to find a racist all she needs to do is look in the mirror or at her husband. She will also find an anti-semite when looking there. She should try stopping her own racism before she points the finger at another.

Right. Because Michelle Obama has yelled racist epithets at other members of the government. She has used racist ideology as the basis of a national campaign. Oh, and don't forget about her violent attacks on minority churches and business establishments. It's amazing she even has any time to complain about other people being racist!


Actually, I'm morbidly curious. Just what do you think Michelle Obama has done that is racist?
