NAACP endorses gay marriage

[Jroc]

I mean the NAALCP endorses Obama....Humm if Obama had not said what he said, do you think NAACP would have came out for gay marriage?

The nation's largest civil rights group, the NAACP, endorsed gay marriage on Saturday, giving a boost to the movement to legalize same-sex nuptials despite reservations expressed by some black ministers.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People passed the resolution at its board meeting in Miami "as a continuation of its historic commitment to equal protection under the law," the organization said.

"Civil marriage is a civil right and a matter of civil law. The NAACP's support for marriage equality is deeply rooted in the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution and equal protection of all people," Benjamin Todd Jealous, President and CEO of the NAACP, said in a statement.

So when will the NAACP endorse any non citizen idiot from Kenya as eligible to run for Prez.

The NAACP has been moving towards irrelevance for most black people for over a decade. This just pushes it farther.

I hate people who do things for purely political reasons

The once proud organization started by Republicans is now just a bunch of leftist political hacks.

The goals of the black civil rights movement have largely been met. So the organization is really irrelevant. Therefore they have to find things to keep them in business and this is where it leads.

I'm sorry the NAACP is so divisive lately. They're calling all Tea Party attenders racists, too. Sad state of affairs to divide a nation in such a deceitful, lying way.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The NAACP began with a membership of three white men and a number of more radical blacks from the Niagara movement. Both organizations remained distinct with overlapping memberships. William Howard Taft's policies, then Woodrow Wilson's policies (they rank #2 and #3 of most racist presidents, only surmounted by Andrew Jackson) began to radicalize the NAACP and drive it from any consideration by the growing anti-segregationist politics of the Republican and Democratic white leaderships.

I am surprised that it supports universal marriage when the black community is the most opposed racially to the concept.

But then again the organization called all Tea Party members racist, when in fact it is probably as racist more or less as the NAACP.

Then why comment?

Yep, I can see it now, the NAACP toes the line from the executive leadership, unfortunately it is not tolerated, in fact just the opposite. But then again that's why they have executive leadership so they can take care of and dictate how they should act, because lord knows they sure can't do that on our own. Rev. Sharpton and Jessie sure know how it should be done?
