Charge It Up.

Here we go again. The summer before mid-term elections; the Oil "Spill" disaster in the Gulf of Mexico; Arizona being sued by the Federal Government for daring to do the federal government's job, since the feds seem loathe to do it; and Obama's ratings slipping faster than the housing market. Time to break out the Queen Mother of desparation tactics. Michele Obama was invited to be a guest speaker at the NAACP annual conference/meeting. Interesting that we have not heard anything from this group in years. Suddenly, post meeting, we have what could be classified as a rant from Ben Jealous, the current leader of the NAACP, wherein he is charging the Tea Party people of racism and racist tactics. Really? Interesting. No evidence of this in the news up to this point. Given the massive size and number of events of the Tea Party movement, one would expect that statistically, there would have to be hundreds of incidents just to register a fraction of 1% of the participants in this movement. Yet, there was none in evidence. There was an oblique, and questionable reference to one billboard, which was subsequently removed when objection was voiced, and some "alleged" name calling during a political demonstration in Washington. The media, who are besotted with the Obamas, would have run saturation coverage of any real events, were there any to report on. Silence. Now, suddenly, we have an outcry from the NAACP, following Ms. Obama's visit to the group? There is one point on which I have to acknowledge the Obama administration. They promised transparency, and to be sure, one can see right through them.
