    Fmr. NAACP President: Tea Party’s Disrespect Toward Obama Drove Politics ‘Into a Ditch’

    Benjamin Jealous
    , the former president of the NAACP, appeared on MSNBC on Thursday and praised Attorney General Eric Holder‘s remarks before the National Action Network, in which he implied that both he and President Barack Obama suffer race-based indignities from conservatives. Jealous said the nation should count itself “blessed” to have such an honest attorney general and blamed the tea party for the racial antipathy directed at White House officials.

    “We should count ourselves blessed that we have an AG who will speak to us about the truth,” Jealous said of Holder’s remarks. “I know perhaps better than most just the ugly sort of threats and disrespect that those who seek to do the work of civil rights have been subjected to in these past several years.”

    Why Obama’s Presidency Has to Be All About Race Now


    The left is doing what they always do when their policies fail: make everything about race, instead. If the Obama presidency itself is what’s failing, then his whole presidency—the one that was supposed to usher in a post-racial era—must be all about race, too.

    In the current context, the most glaring problem with this theory is the evidence that the very tactics Chait is justifying here—the equation of race with political orientation—is actually driving white voters away from the Democrats and toward Republicans.

    So he projects that the racial tensions he describes will only disappear when today’s old white men start to die off.
