Shocker: NAACP Says GOP Wright Ad “Racist!”
RALEIGH, N.C. — The North Carolina branch of the NAACP said Friday a Republican advertisement that includes a clip of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s former pastor is racially divisive.
NAACP leaders blasted the North Carolina GOP for producing an ad that shows footage of Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s fiery comments about the U.S. The group said the ad takes Wright’s words out of context in an effort to smear the black community and “prophetic ministers.”
“It’s a fundamentally race-baiting ad,” said Rev. William Barber, state NAACP President. “And it inserts racist sentiments
The Reverend Barber is right about there being racism in the ad, but it’s coming from the radical Reverend Wright. The NAACP is one of the least credible organizations out there when it comes to dealing with issue of race. They constantly cry wolf on the subject and I think most people today just roll their eyes when they hear the NAACP whining about something.
Regarding the ad, the Democrats continue to make these accusations of racism in the ad, but I haven’t heard a single one be able to explain why it’s racist.
Now Obama campaign manager says that any voter that won’t vote for Obama because of race will cerntainlty vote for Mccain. That is a race-baiting comment. Calling Liberterians racists like that.
