ship stuff through pseudo client states across caspian. we can t even monitor. and so what sanctions will do and obama doesn t have a strategy. he has one idea, that s sanctions because he doesn t know what else to do. the only thing sanction also do is make the revolutionary guards richer because the revolutionary guards control the smuggling and the smuggling routes. i m all for anything that punishes iran. but the idea that somehow this is going to make the iranian people rise up and overthrow the revolutionary guards and ahmadinejad, this is cloud could you could you land cue cue land stuff. usually when we get countries cheat on it all the time. they get around it all the time. this is pretty amazing amazing s happening two weeks out of the vote. do you think this is a direct result of a weak american president? absolutely. the russians, look, one thing
could provide to show that. are you comfortable with things like billboards comparing our president to hitler and people hurling racial epitaphs at congressman and calling barney frank there was some ugly stuff under that banner. i m not saying it applies to everybody. shouldn t civil rights groups say hold on a second, don t do that. the billboard you are referring to was put up in the midwest. that group self-policed and that billboard came down. the other examples that you referred to, there has never been any evidence to show that kevin, let me ask you, i have been to tea parties, you are a great tea party activist. is the tea party racist? well, the short answer is absolutely not. and but this isn t about the tea party, it s about the naacp who, by the way, nobody would have even nofn about their convention if they hadn t utilized the marketability of the tea parties to get some free press the fact of the matter is this is an organization that has as much use as a diet cok
but what the naacp went out there and did by attacking the tea party was w. nonexistent charges of nonexistent racism, rather, they are going down this road a boy who cried wolf so that when real racism does come up, people are less inclined to take it seriously. monica, seriously, with all respect, that s a silly argument. i mean, this is a civil right movement that is arguing its position in a very controversial moment with a group that is becoming increasingly powerful. strength and weakness in tea party movement is decentralization. people there for many reasons. but you know that some of that stuff is very, very ugly. and the naacp ought to be stepping forward and saying, hey, don t behave that way. it s ugly. don t do that stuff. it s ugly for when it s for real and really happening. if you are going to slap that label on willy-nilly where it doesn t exist. that is the charges racism. folks like kevin who have every right to their conservative views are so far out of th
democrats. they think obama is moving too far to the right. they are upset with obama. here had you a guy that promised change. that s what he ran on. now he hasn t delivered that change. hillary gives them that option. don t forget this also, mondayca. i saw your article a year ago. i agreed with you a year ago when i started seeing obama doing some of the stuff he is doing right now. you started seeing obama moving further to the middle and further to the middle. oddly enough, republican numbers for obama have gone up. democrat numbers have gone down. he has also got she has also got that thing to play i call it the clinton brand name. that is with expansive economy for eight years. one of the most expansive economies we have had in the united states she is going to use that to her benefit. she has got bubba. i would not count her out. she has got bubba. what about in 2016? in 2008 a lot of people were fooled by barack obama. he ran as a centrist. is he a centrist.
with us a guest. no big surprise there, i guess. ellis, let me start with you. the naacp is supposed to be in the business of advancing the black community. there are so many serious problems that plague it, including black on black violence, fatherlessness, drugs, guns, education problems. why would the naacp waste its time at its national convention focusing on nonexistent racism in the tea party? first of all, monica, every single one of those issues you almost about a litany of the agenda of the naacp. all of those things are matters the naacp has taken up. why are they wasting their time with the tea party. i don t think it s inappropriate with a civil rights movement saying there is this other thing growing up there. we are not accusing the whole group of being racist. under that umbrella of tea party you know there have been some pretty ugly stuff said. where? rallies. i have been to tea parties. i have not sheen a shred of
