"MA NAACP President Compares Dem’s Assault On A Woman To “Jaywalking”"

From Massachusetts Radio talk show Michael Graham's blog...

The New England Area Chapter of the NAACP released a letter this morning urging the Massachusetts House of Representatives not to vote to expel convicted woman-beater Rep. Carlos Henriquez. Henriquez is currently serving simultaneously in the State House and the “slammer” up in Billerica. (Or rather was. The House voted 146-5 to expel him.)

I asked the NEAC President, Juan Cofield, who signed the letter, to join me on my radio show today and discuss it... (go here to listen to it)

War on Women is an expression in United States politics used to describe certain Republican Party policies as a wide-scale effort to restrict women's rights, especially reproductive rights. Prominent Democrats such as Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer, as well as feminists, have used the phrase to criticize proponents of the laws as trying to force their social views on women through legislation. The expression is used to describe Republican policies in areas such as access to reproductive health services, particularly birth control and abortion services; the prosecution of criminal violence against women; the definition of rape for the purpose of the public funding of abortion; and workplace discrimination against women.

"“White Farmer” Roger Spooner Contradicts Sherrod’s NAACP Tale"

"Why did Shirley Sherrod tell the NAACP in 2010 that she'd taken 'white farmer' Roger Spooner to 'one of his own kind'?"

I've just confirmed the bombshell story that I reported this morning : that a key component of Shirley Sherrod's infamous 2010 speech to the NAACP in Douglas, Georgia appears to be false."

Sherrod is currently suing the widow of Andrew Breitbart and Larry O'Connor, a Breitbart News employee for defamation and false light."

Report: There was a KKK-NAACP Summit in Casper WY

"A Montana recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan named John Abarr met in Casper, Wyoming, last weekend (Sat. Aug. 31-13) with members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People."

It's believed to be the first such meeting in history and was called by the Casper branch of the NAACP because the KKK has been distributing flyers in the economically depressed Wyoming coal town of Gillette, where there has also been a rash of hate crime recently.
