Tea Party & NAACP

Yesterday, the NAACP decided to declare the TEA party racist. I find a few things fishy about this:

1. The NAACP only ever uses the race card. Never real allegations, never anything they can proove, and never any other arguments.

2. Last time I checked, it is not appropriate to call people with dark skin "colored." That is considered an antiquated and racist term. Yet, the term is in the very NAME of the NAACP??? Why don't they change names?

3. The TEA party, according to the data that's out there, consists of people of all walks of life, in the same demographic proportions as the USA as a whole. The numbers don't lie. So is the NAACP saying that having an equal racial diversity to the entire country is racist?

4. The NAACP is known to attack organizations that threaten the "values" held by the NAACP. Being an organization of known liberal policies, it is no wonder the NAACP does not like the TEA party.

5. Just because #4 is true, does not mean the TEA party is racist. Just like the millions out there who dislike President Obama's policies are not racist, either.

It is possible to have a difference of opinion without any ugly ulterior motive behind it.
