Oh right, it's Black History Month

Julian Bond, Chairman of the NAACP, apparently delivered some sort of nonsensical tirade at Fayetteville State University in North Carolina.  If you don’t want to read the whole article, here’s the gist of it:

Colin Powell and Condi are tokens

"The Republican Party would have the American flag and the swastika flying side by side," he charged.

He referred to former Attorney General John Ashcroft as J. Edgar Ashcroft. He compared Bush's judicial nominees to the Taliban.

In July 2001, Bond said, "[Bush] has selected nominees from the Taliban wing of American politics, appeased the wretched appetites of the extreme right wing, and chosen Cabinet officials whose devotion to the Confederacy is nearly canine in its uncritical affection."

ME: Yawn, it’s a shame that people take this guy seriously.  The NAACP could  be a useful and worthwhile organization, but the devotion of their leadership to the screaming left has rendered it, well, redundant and irrelevant.
