NAACP tells blacks they aren't fit to make decisions
So, in further weirdness surrounding Prop 8 here in CA the NAACP, which ostensibly tries to advance colored people, has sued to have Prop 8 repealed, despite the fact that 70% of African American voters voted Yes. Apparently the NAACP doesn't think that black voters should be allowed to make their own decisions.

To the NAACP, and to NOW, being black, or a woman, is more about being liberal than about the color of your skin or your sex.
