National NAACP Financed by Wells Fargo and its Mexican Drug Cartels?

Why is it that the national NAACP President, Ben Jealous,  joined in the electronic lynching of Ms. Sherrod?  From my point of view, Ben Jealous comes to the NAACP from the Rosenberg Foundation, a private, California-based group with a lack of experience on the national stage, and is making some ill advised decisions. He may be Rhodes Scholar book smart, but he sure is common sense ignorant.

Lynched Black woman

1. A tea party activist posts 2 minutes and 38 seconds of a 43-minute speech.
2. Fox runs the video.
3.The NAACP watches Fox.
4. The Obama administration reacts to the NAACP.
5. The USDA tells Sherrod to resign. ...
6. Oh, yeah ... the question: What the heck is wrong with the NAACP? 




Has the new NAACP President sold out to the drug laundering Wells Fargo Bank?  One has to wonder.  

Was it really worth it Mr. Jealous?

You remember how the new NAACP President/CEO, Benjamin Jealous was an outspoken critic of Wells Fargo. Then all of a sudden, the NAACP dropped its lawsuit against the predatory lender and drug money launder Wells Fargo Bank

Maybe blogger Faye Anderson of the blog, Anderson at Large, knowingly or unknowingly, uncovered something even more sinister about the new NAACP President. Maybe he is hooked up with the banks in more than one evil way?


I agree with Dr. Boyce Watkins who recently wrote: "There is an image problem with being affiliated with Wells Fargo: If I were to allow the neighborhood child molester to move into the bedroom next to my kids, my wife had better get a pretty good explanation. The point is that any civil rights group working with a company like Wells Fargo." Read More HERE

It's time for the NAACP to explain why the NAACP is being financed by Wells Fargo and its Mexican Drug Cartels - don't you think? 

Why did the NAACP President partner with Wells Fargo when it knew that the Justice Department on March 12 charged Wachovia with violating the Bank Secrecy Act by failing to run an effective anti-money-laundering program. 

Oh, and maybe the Obama administration has some explaining to do as well.  

And for all of you blind faith supporters of Obama and the NAACP. You should be asking some questions of your own, like, why Wells Fargo only paid $160 million in fines and penalties, less than 2 percent of its $12.3 billion profit in 2009. 

Change you we can believe in? It's time or black bloggers to expose crooks, liars, thieves, and sell outs of black folks. No I'm not going to agree with all of what black Republican blogger has to say regarding Obama and the Republicans, but it is time to ask some real questions don't you think?

NAACP President Ben Jealous Your Wrong. Shirley Sherrod Is Right!

The National President of the NAACP is disgrace and a sell-out and should consider resigning as President of the national NAACP. He is part of the new crew of colored people advancing their own agenda, not a black empowerment or capacity building agenda. One blogger, Gina at What About Our Daughters is on point when she says:

 "I thought Jealous was a young idealistic fool, but instead he's turned out to be a cynical mealy mouth coward of the highest order... and jelly-spined did I mention jelly-spined?"

Ouch Gina! But your right, Ben Jealous is full of it. He is a fake. Check out his bogus remarks:

I also agree with Gina at the blog What About Our Daughters who writes:

 "The NAACP is really the NAAMCP (National Association of Male Colored People). Tell me how the NAACP's male President starts some MESS with tea partiers and a Black woman ends up being the one to lose her job? Not only do they only appear to mobilize solely for the benefit of humans with penises, they have a proclivity for throwing Black women UNDER the bus and then shanking them in the back."


AAPP says: President Barack Obama should also consider requesting the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and (others involved) to resign as well.

Why? Because of what they have done to Shirley Sherrod, the USDA's director of rural development for Georgia, who was pressured to resign Monday when a video surfaced in which she told an NAACP audience that she had not given a white farmer "the full force of what I could do" to help him save the family farm in 1986, when she worked for a Georgia nonprofit group.

As reported by the Washington Post, LA Times, CNN, and many other news oulets, progressive bloggers  (and of course the dishonest redneck bloggers who the NAACP and Barack Obama seem to follow). Yes, Shirley Sherrod was smeared by the NAACP, The Obama administration, and of course the right-wing media that distorted the truth and tried to destroy a black woman through character assassination. Get this, The National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People initially condemned her remarks, which were publicized by a conservative blogger and picked up by of all folks the bigots at Fox News and that other conservative blog.

Watch the full video of Shirley Sherrod below. She is a powerful woman who the NAACP initially attempted to destroy!




There is more, get this, as reported by the LA Times,  on Tuesday, when the video of her full speech was released, the NAACP retracted its condemnation and called on the USDA to rehire her, saying it had been "snookered" by Fox and conservative website publisher Andrew Breitbart. And the farm couple involved in the incident stepped forward to defend Sherrod, calling her a friend and saying that she saved their farm.

I'm glad to hear that their are a number of coalitions supporting Ms. Shirley Sherrod, at least they are showing more character than the "NAACP President Ben Jealous" which had originally condemned Sherrod's comments, and worked to destroy her. Now the NAACP is involved in the Cover Your Ass (CYA) strategy of blaming the white media for their own rush to judgement. Speaking of rush to judgemement, it looks like the President's handlers did just that. As reported in Politico:

In a closed staff meeting Tuesday morning, a senior administration praised elements of the White House's initial response to a partial video of a speech by a Department of Agriculture official -- a response that the Administration has since reversed. White House officials yesterday afternoon told reporters they did not press Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack to demand the resignation of Shirley Sherrod, but that they stood by the hasty decision; last night, they took credit for pressing Vilsack to rehire her when a fuller video revealed that her remarks had been edited to mean the opposite of what she said. But three Democratic sources said Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina singled out the White House's initial response to the incident for praise in the regular 8:30 a.m. staff meeting Tuesday morning. The sources differed on the substance of Messina's praise, but concurred that he had praised the speed of White House communications in response to the flap, which was driven by a misleadingly-edited video posted to Andrew Breitbart's Big Government website. One source, who is unhappy with the administration's handling of the incident, paraphrased Messina's remarks: "We could have waited all day – we could have had a media circus – but we took decisive action and it’s a good example of how to respond in this atmosphere."


Now the fake ass national office of the NAACP is acting like they were used by Fox News and Andrew Breitbart, claiming they had "snookered" the NAACP and the media.
Whatever, NAACP! Campbell Brown is right.



As I said earlier, The National President of the NAACP is a disgrace and should consider resigning as President of the NAACP. President Barack Obama should also consider requesting the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture to resign as well. Infact, the President should be asking any of his handlers who screwed this up to resign as well.

It's interresting that the NAACP would attack this strong black woman, without checking the facts. In a rush to judgement, yet, The NAACP and Barack Obama just recently supported the head of the former West Virginia head of KKK, who served in the United States Senate for the great work they said he did for America - Whatever!

There are some black bloggers who are willing to give the NAACP a pass. Not me!
You see the NAACP has been getting passes, for the past 30 years. This is the same NAACP who accused Wells Fargo and HSBC of forcing blacks into subprime mortgages while whites with identical qualifications got lower rates. This is the same NAACP that filed lawsuits  against Wells Fargo  and then dropped the law suit against them in order to gain sponsorship for their national convention. The NAACP has no credidabilty in the black community, other than putting on somewhat wacked image awards.

Thank you Faye Anderson, of Anderson at Large and the great folks at Booker Rising for following this issue. 

UPDATE: The NAACP is asking the Obama administration to rehire Ms. Sherrod. This is one of the many reasons why the NAACP President should resign. First they attempt to destroy a black woman's career, then they say, oops.. the white Fox News Network made us do it.... what a disgrace...

I have been pointing out the disgrace of the NAACP for sometime.

I agree with Ms. Sherrod when she said,  "I've done more to advance the causes of civil rights in this area than some of them who are sitting in those positions now with the NAACP."

She is right about the national office of the NAACP, "They need to learn something about  need to know about her. They need to know what she contributed through the years."

Ben Jealous at the NAACP, White House Aides, nor USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack have  walked in her shoes, and have not even begun to pay their dues...

Join me tonight on my blogtalkradio program, as we discuss the issue of Shirley Sherrod, color, racism, color aroused hatred  Barack Obama and the NAACP.

National NAACP Trying, But Still Out of Touch...

I just got an email from the national office of the NAACP, suggesting that they have always been a leader in the fight for justice and equality. Hmmm.. OK back to the point, Ben Jealous, the 37 year old CEO and President of the NAACP who is a Rhodes Scholar born to a white father and black mother, wrote that the NAACP  is creating a new frontline for protecting civil and human rights. They announced their new and improved NAACP website -- 

Check out the site: http://www.naacp.org

But a new website won't solve the NAACP's problems or black America's problems.


The NAACP's fear of a loss of momentum since the 2008 election should be a time for them to look themselves in the mirror and ask themselves, why they refused to hold the President of the United States, his labor department, education department, housing department, and justice department accountable?

Instead of the NAACP working to renergize blacks to fight back against a tea party movement agenda. The NAACP and negro groups should creating it's own "agenda" and also demand a Federal jobs program like the old Comprehensive Employment and Training Program (CETA) to address the high unemployment in black neighborhoods.

But, that would be so much like right. That would make them in touch with black America and the need for job and economic development advocacy...




2010 Blacks Still Give Blind Faith Support to Obama

I just finshed reading an article in The Washington Post by Nia-Malika Henderson and Perry Bacon Jr.on black folks and Barack Obama. They raise serious questions on why Barack Obama continues to get overwhelming support from blacks even though we are among those who have lost the most since he was elected.

I finally watched Capitalism: A Love Story by Micheal Moore. It's a great movie that should be watched by every African (black) American. The movie has been out for some time on video.



Michael Moore highlights a confidential report that Citigroup initially circulated only to it's wealthiest customers. Those reports, since leaked, plainly discuss the power of the Plutonomy in America, and how it would only strengthen, as long as the "the rest us" (the non-plutonics) could be kept in the dark about the Plutonomy existence, its role, and its over-arching control in the American Economy. Even though the Plutonomy (the top 1%) control over 50% of the net worth in America -- they don't control the Votes!
The thing they most fear is the principle of "one person -- one vote".

I again urge African Americans to read the leaked 2005 internal Citigroup “Plutonomy” memo, which describes how the richest 1% of the population has replaced the democracies of the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Australia; with a form of government they have coined “Plutonomy.” This made up term means plutocracy, where only the wealthiest few rule and everyone else are essentially irrelevant slaves.

Then we should ask a tough question, why are Blacks still giving blind faith support to President Obama and his administration, when we have lost the most since he was elected?
