		<description>The NAACP is a pathetic organization by and large, so I have called them on the mat and asked CEO Bruce Gordon for a commment about why they turned-tail on me like a bunch of sally-asses.

		<description>It&#039;s sad that my generation lost out on seeing the NAACP as a viable organization that fostered, not stifled, divergent thinking.</description>

		<description>La Shawn:




Unfortunately, the entire Federal Government is a dinosaur:



1     The Military has more resources in &quot;safe&quot; countries like Germany, S Korea, and Bosnia than in Iraq.

2     The Post Office has not downsized, in spite of more people than ever paying bills and communicating by the Internet.

3     The Department of Education is getting bigger despite shameful performance. 



The NAACP is no different.</description>

		<description>La Shawn,  Keep up the good fight!  The NAACP is definitely a dinosaur and it seems that its only reason to exist now is to brainwash people into believing that they are victims while they truly victimize those who don&#039;t agree with their views.</description>

		<description>&#8230; and it sure ain&#8217;t Christmas. First we had &#8220;Santarchy&#8221; yesterday. Now the blogosphere is swarming over some ridiculous comments a NAACP rep said and that the President ordered phone snooping to counter terrorism. It&#8217;s dreary in Florida (which isn&#8217;t right any time of year) and to be quite honest&#8230; I woke up a little grumpy. It would seem that something is in the air. </description>

		<description>And while we are looking at the grammar don&#039;t forget the crisis&#039;s! Or is it just British English that has the plural as crises...

&lt;em&gt;That&#039;s why I placed the mark &quot;sic&quot; beside the word so readers would know I quoted it as written. ;)- Admin&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>We should be calling organizations by names that describe what they do, not what the may have done in the past.  So:

NAACP: National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peonage.

ACLU: Anti-Christian Litigation Union.</description>

		<description>The civil rights community is no longer deeply relevant to the lives of most black people.  The civil rights establishment now exists to try to get media attention and the illusion of power through access to Democratic politicians.  You are right that it says something that Mondesire would be the head of a chapter in a major metropolitan area.  It shows that the sort of highly intelligent black professionals who once were the NAACP&#039;s leadership cadre now find other things to do than be engaged in civil rights work.  The best and brightest blacks are in academia, the professions, business and other endeavors.  The sort of people who run the NAACP now seen the be politician types--people who crave attention and who want to be seen as the &quot;leaders&quot; of something.  The outpouring of civil rights establishment support for &quot;Tookie&quot; Williams shows how desperate for attention, demagogic and irrelevant they have become.  Perhaps its a sign of progress that black people no longer have so much of a need for professional black leaders.  Other ethnic groups flourish without them.</description>
