NAACP chairman compares GOP to Nazis
Bond delivers blistering partisan speech in North Carolina
Julian Bond

Civil rights activist and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond delivered a blistering partisan speech at Fayetteville State University in North Carolina last night, equating the Republican Party with the Nazi Party and characterizing Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and her predecessor, Colin Powell, as "tokens."
More... The NAACP is a racist organization so hell, why should not they insult those they don't like?
To the NAACP any Black person with a paying job is a token, because to them sitting on their dead asses has become an artform and whining about White people not doing enough for them a symphony.
The NAACP is one of those anacharisms like the KKK on the other side.
Sure they will attack Colin Powell and Codoleezza Rice as "tokens" when they themselves are known at the laziest, dumbest bunch of freeloaders in the nation.
Cut them off, make them work for their welfare.
Maybe if they cut a few lawns for some nice White people they will get the idea that perhaps getting an education and a job is not so bad afterall.

I can't approve of him comparing Nazis and Republicans because that obviously isn't true.

I do think that Condi and Powell are/were tokens though. Just like the people sitting next to Laura at the SOTU.

[Seeseeskeva]

This thread, like all of gadfly's threads, is bullshit.

[janeemljr]

"The talk so infuriated at least one black family in attendance among the 900 in the auditorium that they got up and walked out in protest." Can't blame them for walking out. That was some pretty extreme stuff being spewed out there, especially when you compare Nazis with Republicans and say that todays Republicans would be waving Nazi flags.

Its not worse than when the NAACP made the same statements to the black caucas's that were supporting the Republican Agenda. And dont doubt for a second that there is not a great divide between the Mainstream Black community and those individuals that find themselves involved with the Neo Con agenda. Supreme Court Justice Thomas is still sitting out in the cold when it comes to the black community.

The Retoric will not be getting toned down anytime soon. Even if the Democrats get luck and can take back either the House or the Senate. It is only going to succed in turning up the hate speech not toning it down.

[kanchouska]

Blacks have always been some of the worst racists in the country and they get away with it because nobody takes them seriously. The Republican party wins elections without them and does not need them. There is no need for Republicans to have a few token blacks sitting around looking pretty.
I think the ones that do have prominent positions such as Rice and Powell are deserving of those posts. I hugely admire Condi and hope she runs for President.
Scum suckers like Jesse "The Poverty Pimp" Jackson, Julian Bond, Al "The Clown" Sharpton, Calypso Louie and lets not forget that moron Mayor Ray Nagin who with the help of a little hurricane converted mostly black, mostly welfare collecting New Orleans into what promises to be a mostly white and mostly productive town. These people can say anything and get away with it because Americans silently snicker knowing they don't matter anyway.
Allowing the Julian Bonds and the Belefonte's to say anything with impunity is the worst kind of insult, almost as bad as having a Black History month.
Think about it. What other people are so pathetic that they have to be patronized with a "lets praise black folks" for a month. That is sad as hell.
Typical for touchy feely liberals though, who have no pride anyway.

Hmm, don't know if you can say that now. More and more African-Americans are becoming conservative. This is what happens when people start getting the piece of the pie.

Julian Bond=Pat Robertson.

[Borrinas]

Julian Bond=Pat Robertson.

Simply not true. I think you are just trying to appear fair or whatever.
Robertson in a lot of ways is an idiot but he has a different agenda from Julian Bond who is an out and out racists and spends his entire life whining that White people don't care and don't do enough for Black people.
You don't see Robertson whining that Black people don't do enough for White people. He is a conservative but you are completely off base if you try to claim he is a racist except perhaps regarding the Muslims, which is more of a culture thing than race.
Whites are not allowed to say the kind of poison the Bonds, Belefontes and Sharptons spread. The Black Congressional Caucaus would be on their ass so bad writting new hate laws that their heads would spin.

[metropropuskruww]

Ouch man.

No disrespect Gadfly, but don't you think this is too general of a statement and makes you sound kind of racist? I'm not accusing you of being a racist, but based upon some of your wording, I can understand why you and WEB clash quite bit.

[Habalinnyf]

This thread, like all of gadfly's threads, is bullshit.

Then why did you read it? If you dont have anything to contribute, then stay out of it.

Sorry if you don't like that but it's the truth.
No, not every Black person is that way but way too many are.
I personally don't give a shit what you think of me, I don't post to be liked, I post what I think.
What do you think the NAACP is, if anyting but racist?
What about the Black Caucaus in Congress?
Why is there a Negro College Fund and no Caucasion college fund.
Do blacks need extra help? All this crap is racists.
It's strongly supported by most Blacks because they think it will feather their bed.
Why is there no White Caucaus and what the hell good is the Black Caucaus?
It's there to blame White people and to feather Blacks nests!
Hell man, I don't know how many pictures you need to have drawn for you but it's obvious to me.
WEB pretends intellecutal superiority and when he loses an argument immediately resorts to insults. I don't put up with any chicken shit tactics and so we clash.

Why did you make that comment?
Am I supposed to patronize him because he is Black?
Is he to be treated differently because he is black?

White people in America are so full of guilt and are so desperate to appear fair that most of them are afraid to criticise blacks.
Hell, I don't know of any people that don't deserve a lot of criticism, especially blacks who comit most of the violent crimes in this country and are on the last wrung of the intellectual ladder.
When a few do rise to the top like Powell and Rice some of their own people do their best to pull them down.
Jesse Jackson runs all over the country crying race discrimination, in other words blaming Whites but nobody has the guts to call him on that.
I don't like being called a racists, so why does he escape the tag?
Al Sharpton and the rest of the race whores make a nice living being bigots. White people are afraid to say that. I am not.
As soon as Katrina hit; the national whine became "Bush does not care about Black people".
Hell, I know the game, you know the game so lets be a little honest.
Of course not all Blacks take part in this and in fact more and more are joining the middle class as time goes by, but those people are too busy making a living and you don't hear from them.
I don't care about them any more than I care about the silent majority, I posted concerning the NAACP, which is a racist organization and always has been. Their closest White equivalent is the KKK.
That is obvious by their behavior.

If you read my political posts you will find that I greatly admire Condi Rice and wish she would run for President. I have stated that often enough.
I support her because she is smart, she is a conservative and yes, she would destroy the Democratic party because they would have to go after her as a Uncle Tom, which is the battle cry of the losers.

Don't give me any race shit, if we all were not racists then we would not be talking race. Blacks have themselves a nice game here where they are allowed to whine that White's don't do enough for them and White people are afraid to tell them to start supporting their own bastard children, to start emphasizing education instead of welfare, to praise those who make it to the top of our society instead of trying to pull them down.

It's a sad commentary when a Black comedian goes on national television and states he is going to adopt a Jewish kid so he will have somone to do his taxes! LOL! There is a lot of truth in that.

[fmrcurter]

This thread, like all of gadfly's threads, is bullshit. I'd say more like his posts/threads are long on vitriolic rhetoric, but if you can get past that, there's a useful point. Should the NAACP speech be dismissed as comparable bs, or should one approach it with the attitude that it might fit that same description? Heck, even philip makes a few good points now and then, despite his overt racism.

Whoa, you had me up to the Philip comment.

Seriously though, this is just common hypocrasy from republican critics. Had a republican said something similar, he would have been lynched. Just another example of why the GOP is in charge. They have ideas, not just complaints.

Actually, I only made comment about the way your statement came across as misleading and perhaps offensive to blacks. You already saw where I showed my disapproval of the NAACP chairman's accusations. But you just rambled on with worldly expletives and went on the defensive by thinking I have judged you, which is now kind of hard to hold in reserve, but I will do it anyways.

I'm Hispanic, and I don't play the race card. I'm not white, and I'm not black. In my opinion, racism exists everywhere, including from minorities who hold extreme views. Some blacks can be racists, just like some Hispanics can be racists. I've seen it. My grandfather was one of them. He talked badly about the white man, and he disliked most black people (though he did like some of both). But at the same time, he grew up in a time where racism was common, so it left him bitter. Yet, my grandmother and some other folks from his period chose not to handle things the way he did. It's a decision how we choose to view and handle things.

I also understand that some minorities need to know that always pointing fingers and prematurely screaming racism doesn't get you anywhere. You have to possess deep desire in order to get anywhere in this world. But the sad fact is, I've seen some undeserving whites get things handed to them, including good paying jobs. But to be fair, I've also seen a few minorities who cock an attitude and accuse everyone of being racist. It goes both ways man. But yeah, the minorities do need some help, so as long as they a desire to work hard, I seen nothing wrong with giving them aid.

I don't approve of minorities villainizing people of their own race just because they worked hard. Trust me, it happens within the Hispanic community too, especially from those within the Latino varrios.

But I'm not too sure that everyone within the NAACP or even associated with it is racist. I know somebody who is heavily involved with them, and she isn't racist at all. We agree and disagree here and there about some things, but she isn't racist.

[Cxcvvfbgtr]

Why is this even news? There's always some leftist comparing GWB to Hitler, or Republicans to Nazis, or fascists, or Beelzebub himself. It's the standard insult the whiners throw out after whichever defeat they lately suffered, whether an election loss, a Supreme Court appointment they don't like, a display of Democrat ineptitude or criminality, a court case, etc. And there have been a lot of those recently. Does Julian Bond deserve any more attention for his turn at the slimefest, than any of the others do?

Your comments are indeed nothing but chickenshit. You enjoy talking on and on and on, but chickenshit you spew, nonetheless. I hope this was not too "intellectually" taxing on you.

I am not defense I am offended when folks even talk race because it's about the phoniest of all phoney liberal non issues.
I recide in El Paso, Texas. The town is at least 90% Mexican, but Mexicans call themselves the minority. Is that a joke or what?
Whites play along because they are afraid of being called racists.
LOL! It's pathetic!

No, your posts, your way of thinking and your comments are all partisan garbage. Thankfully, I don't share your shortcomings.
