If you ask any official of the NAACP which political party they align themselves with, they will tell you that the NAACP is a non-profit organization that does not align themselves with any political party.
So don’t read too much into the NAACP giving failing grades to the Republican on matters of Civil Rights
Some quick points
• All Senate Republicans got an F but two (Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, Maine -- they got C's)
• All Senate Democrats and Independents got A’s, B’s or Incompletes
• Senator Arlen Specter, R-to-D-Penn., got a B
• All House Republicans but 6 got an F -- 5 of those 6 got D’s -- 1 got a C: Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Florida.
• House Republicans scored the lowest of an sub group.
• All BUT 23 House Democrats got A’s, B’s or Incompletes
• All Congressman who scored a 100% were Democrats
• Of the CBC Members ALL but 2 got A’s, Rep. Artur Davis, D-Ala., who is moderating his stances in prep for a gubernatorial run, got a B.
Again, let me repeat that the NAACP is apolitical non-profit organization that does not align itself with any particular political party!
Side note: If you as any Black person what is the Black National Anthem? They’ll tell you, “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”
But, 10 out of 10 Black people won’t know that it was written by a Republican African American.
