As many of you know, Andrew Breitbart has offered $100,000 for any proof of Tea Party racism, and, according to CBS News, the NAACP has published an entry:
The NAACP today issued a report detailing "the links between certain Tea Party factions and acknowledged racist hate groups in the United States."
"These links should give all patriotic Americans pause," NAACP president and CEO Benjamin Jealous writes in a forward.
Jealous allows that that "the majority of Tea Party supporters are sincere, principled people of good will." He urges "the leadership and members of the Tea Party movement [to] read this report and take additional steps to distance themselves from those Tea Party leaders who espouse racist ideas, advocate violence, or are formally affiliated with white supremacist organizations...."
UPDATE: National spokesperson for the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) Niger Innis has a few choice words about this latest NAACP allegation.
