no it doesn't, he just didn't show all 43 minutes. Hey what about those racist NAACP members laughing and cheering when she said she screw a white man because she had the power to. You think the NAACP will purge their membership of racists ? or would that leave no members ?

Dems afraid to disclose their poll results? By: Mark Hemingway Commentary Staff Writer 07/21/10 2:36 PM EDT The Hotline: Amid a troubled political environment, nearly 2 dozen House Dems commissioned polls over the last 3 months, according to reports filed with the FEC. But those polls weren't made public, leaving some GOPers to believe incumbents are beginning to run scared. The members who conducted polling are among the GOP's top targets this year. Reps. Mark Schauer (D-MI), Earl Pomeroy (D-ND), Chet Edwards (R-TX), Ike Skelton (D-MO), Rick Boucher (D-VA) and Chris Carney (D-PA) were among those who paid for polling. The campaigns involved largely refused to discuss their internal polling, citing policies against revealing internal strategy. Megan Jacobs, a spokesperson for Edwards' campaign, pointed to a strategy memo arguing Edwards' campaign is far ahead, but the memo doesn't cite poll numbers. Spokespeople for Schauer, Pomeroy, Skelton, Boucher and Carney, along with a dozen other members of Congress, did not return calls or emails seeking comment about their surveys. On Twitter, Ken Spain of the National Republican Congressional Committee notes that the refusal by Democrats to release poll results is a "big reversal" from the last two election cycles.

The NAACP Acting Stupidly (Again) by Bob Parks biggovernment.com I must admit, I didn’t think the NAACP could top the whole Hallmark-card-is-racist fiasco, but never underestimate the power of stupidity. One thing progressives are very good at is using black people and they’ve found some that are willing enough dupes to help facilitate their plan. The NAACP is expected to approve a resolution at its annual convention condemning the tea party movement for harboring “racist elements that are a threat to our democracy,” a spokeswoman for the civil rights organization said Monday. Like the ignoramuses in Los Angeles who lost their collective minds over racist mispronunciations of black ‘holes’ versus the ‘whores’ they wanted to hear, the national NAACP believes the Tea Party is racist simply because the Barack Obama they oppose is black; not because they oppose the out-of-control fiscal policies of the second black president and his arrogant party leadership. While I don’t recall seeing any reports from NAACP members who personally witnessed hearing racist verbiage and/or signs, they are following the White House talking points that the nearly all-white Tea Party is hostile to President Obama purely because of his race. I mention the personal attendance of the NAACP at Tea Parties because I’ve been to both the 9/12 march on D.C. as well as the health care reform rally on Capitol Hill and the only physical assaults I suffered at the hands of rabid, angry white Teabaggers were hugs from people who read my website. I declined to press charges. Whether you buy into the Glenn Beck warnings of radicals seeking revolution to implement social justice or not, my question is this to the scholarly NAACP: what are you going to get out of this? Barack and Michelle Obama will be taken care off long after he leaves office, but should the NAACP deliberately side with the New Black Panthers and vilify whitey, just what will the black community gain? Better welfare? Despite years of servitude to the Democrat Party, what do blacks have to show for their time, effort, and votes? Democrats control the economy in the black community. Democrats control education, and their politicians send their kids to private schools. Democrats have done little to earn the loyal support of blacks and the NAACP, yet they are now willing to suck up to the radicals in the administration… for what? (Oh, and for the geniuses in the New Black Panther Party who bitch about the cracka’ po-lice invading their neighborhoods, I have one small suggestion. The po-lice go where crime is. If people behave themselves, the po-lice go elsewhere. It works every time.) In any socialist government structure, there are the elites allowed that status by the cronies. Just where do the idiots in the NAACP expect to be in the grand scheme of things? While strategically calling the Tea Party racist, the administration has found an ignorant echo chamber of sellouts in the NAACP. They assume racism lives within the Tea Party because the sheepish media says so. And since they don’t appear to have reading down, they probably haven’t seen the stories of Crash The Tea Party, a failed group of liberals who sought to “infiltrate and dismantle” the Tea Party by mixing in, making loud and crazy statements, and displaying racist signs that could be photographed and/or videotaped to smear them. I’m sorry, but do liberals who use racial taunts to deliberately brand an opponent sound respectful of black people? Obviously not, then again as the NAACP routinely employs the same tactic, it’s easy to conclude they don’t care much about black people either; just the attention they personally receive and the fundraising it drives. The NAACP can call the Tea Party racist all it wants, and they will because good little boys and girls do what they’re told. But when the Obama nightmare is over, the NAACP will have nowhere to go. They’ll have placed all their chips on one last race card and will have lost it all. They will be broke and no one will take a minute to hear what they say. Only a dummy would stick his or her neck out for people who have always offered nothing in return for that effort. The stupid in the NAACP are sticking their necks out for progressives who are probably laughing in the back rooms about how easy this is… again. * * *
