NAACP endorses same sex marriage.
« on: May 19, 2012, 04:13:53 PM »
The NAACP has officially endorsed same sex marriage.

Quote
[snip]

The NAACP’s board of directors voted Saturday to endorse same-sex marriage rights – adding the influential voice of the country’s leading black civil rights organization to a debate that has divided the African-American community.

The decision has political implications for President Obama, who needs an enthusiastic turnout from black voters to help him win reelection in November but angered some African-American church pastors with his announcement this month that he believes gays and lesbians should have the right to marry.

The NAACP now presents itself as a counterbalance to the influence of the traditionally socially conservative black church. It can also help establish closer ties between blacks and gays, two of Obama’s most loyal constituencies.

Once again they show that they are a disgrace. Of course the fact that they are liberal trolls with no bearing on anything important makes this pretty much useless.

Good. Now they will have to go from black church to black church to sell it. That should go over real well.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Have to wonder if their membership roles will drop or if donations will.  This is just further proof that they are shills for the DemonRats and not actually concerned  about what blacks want and need.

This is what I was thinking as well. I guess they have the thought that they should support Obama, no matter what he says or does; even if it means supporting gay marriage. The largest demographics against it in this country are the blacks. It makes you wonder, huh?

It's kind of like the unions in a way.  The leadership spends the members money to support DemonRats, but many union members vote the other way.

Yeah, which is a reason I will never join a union. That is the thing that makes this bad is they say this stuff and it gives the whole group a bad name. They never think about that stuff before opening their mouths.

I work in one of the most anti-union , union shops that you'll ever see.   We've even been told by management that we can NOT vote to de-certify the union, because we are one part of his business and is tied to closely to another heavily union influenced business.

Obama and his racist buddies in the Democratic party will stir up the race issue at all costs. The NAACP knows he can not run on the economy, jobs, debt,, etc so they are going to try to muddy up the waters with this kind of bullshit. Romney needs to stay on message and not get sucked into these type of issues. Reporters that want to dwell on this issue could be handled by stating that gay marriage was defeated in CA where the overwhelming number of blacks voted against it. Stay on the offense and quit apologizing for stuff that happened years ago. That is just retarded. An apologist will not beat Obama; McCain found that out.

That is good. Unions aren't as good as people make them out to be. They just take your money and don't do anything for you. Plus they can at times cripple a company; ie, GM.

That is exactly what it is, Lacarnut. They are doing whatever they can to distract from his record. I was talking to a liberal friend of mine today and he was trying to tell me that the social issues are just as important as the other issues. I asked him how a social issue like promoting gay marriage will lower the deficit or create jobs? He just answered me with the normal liberal reply; he called me a homophobe and said that I just hate Obama and want to see him fail. It was at that point I just walked away.

The NAACP has officially endorsed same sex marriage.

"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

They will do whatever they are told.
