Something that I read on POLITICO this morning set off my Spidey Sense:

Quote:
“We aren’t saying that the tea party is racist,” Jealous said. “What we’re saying is that with their increasing power comes an increasing responsibility to act responsibly ... and to call out when they see those things on those signs.”

There you have it. NAACP President Ben Jealous is Uncle Ben.

So what? It's a slow news day.

I got tired of all those colored people in my comic books but, as it turns out, the black & white ones weren't any better.
