Go Figure

A few days ago the NAACP (the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) accused the Tea Parties of being racist. Now, think with me a moment. Here we have an organization, whose very name communicates its reason for existence as the explicit goal of advancing, through affirmative action, law suits, quotas, protests, and contract set-asides unique advantages for blacks over non-blacks ā€” accusing another organization of being motivated by race.

Sometimes it just hurts to think about irony.

It is my hope that people will be challenged to reconsider what are considered the givens of the current culture. Your biggest help to me dear reader will be to often remind me that God is Sovereign and that all that is, is because it pleases him.

  1. The other irony that most of these “african americans” dont seem to understand is that all of these perceived advantages they think they are gaining by this reverse discrimination are simply driving them deeper and deeper into slavery. The very thing that they believe they are escaping from. Lack of personal responsibility has awarded them with 70% of their offspring being born out of wedlock. Hows that affirmative action been working for you? One day post political correctness when a true history of this chapter of the american experience gets written, most of these people will be seen as having squandered the greatest unique advantage ever doled out to one special interest group ever. And it has been their own people who have perpetrated most of it upon them. Gray

  2. Yes, unfortunately most people don’t recognize the NAACP as being racist(or should I say afraid to?) Either way racism will never go away. There is just too much redirected anger in the world for that.
