Now he needs black America? Bush meets the NAACP

Thu Jul 20, 2006 at 11:52:44 AM PDT

Original at Booman Tribune.

Flanked by enabler Condoleezza Rice and consigliere Karl Rove, George W. Bush finally met with the black roots that he's always dismissed and disrespected at the behest of his Southern-Republican base for five years of his presidency.  Ostensibly `invited' to attend the NAACP annual convention in D.C. by the elderly former president Benjamin Hooks during his tour of Elvis Presley's Graceland with the Japanese prime minister, Bush was given mostly silence or spotty applause at his obviously well-coached yet pithy remarks, which touched on black history and experience, but seemed demonstrably short on heart and conviction.  

NAACP and gay rights: Should Julian Bond have skipped Coretta's funeral?

Sat Mar 11, 2006 at 07:43:43 AM PDT

Put simply, Bond is correct: gay rights are a Civil Rights issue. I have zealously-represented gays in various court matters and my fiancee was quite active in the GLBi community at OSU Law School. I was out of the loop on this but last month (and ongoing) there is a huge/rift in the NAACP/Black community because Julian Bond did not attend Coretta Scott King's funeral because that Church is a hater; was pushing for ban on gay marriage.

As I've noted, American Tower's lawyer Richard C. Van Nostrand and I also agree that gays should have the right to marry: First we tell them "you're too promiscuous," then we tell them "yeah but you can't get married." What kind of sh*t is that? Bullshit(read comment 13) is what that is, pure'n'simple..... (More on A2).

NAACP; blacks need to stop hating on gays; gays need to give daps to Blacks.

I made NAACP CEO Bruce Gordon a whole lot of money, then he screwed me.

Sun Mar 05, 2006 at 11:53:48 AM PDT

Well sports fans I have quite a history with NAACP CEO Bruce Gordon.  I've made him a lot of money while he was a Big Cheese (Retail Markets Prez, among other things) at Verizon, actually. This was in 2002 as I was working for American Tower Corporation, as seen at the 'PS' of this post, written after my biographer emailed me this morning:

I further detail the relationship in this audioblawg, noting that a Verizon company had made my client, decorated Persian War Veteran Gregory Boatwright

Fighting government spying and modern-day COINTELPRO activity:

Sat Mar 04, 2006 at 10:20:54 AM PDT

Expand the Summary.
http://i32.photobucket.com/...

In today's round of legal gymnastics we see Defendant Chief Dunn attempting to make me file a whole new complaint relative to the secret file he's been maintaining on me, as noted in prior posts and in this killer Blawg entry which contains my most recent filing and exhibits, and showing some Judges' facial expressions whenever I'm around:
http://christopher-king.blogspot.com/...

We've got more judicial pics, BTW. Later for those.  Bottom line is that Chief Dunn has a secret file on me, and emails sent to both of his attorneys that he has not produced despite repeated requests. And NAACP Defendant Gloria Timmons' false statements back in January '05 to my erstwhile colleagues that Jaffrey Police had filed a lawsuit against NAACP because of me constitute a separate and distinct cause of action from her Defaming me to the media...

New Hampshire is not the "Live Free or Die" State: They will lynch you

Thu Dec 22, 2005 at 10:08:39 AM PDT

Why do the NAACP, Columbus Bar Association, Jaffrey, NH Police and corporate communications behemoth American Tower Corporation all hate former Ohio Assistant Attorney General Christopher King?

Why have they all tried to get charges on him and/or lock him up since 2002? Why have they failed to date? Why has King sued each of them and now has a Defamation/First Amendment lawsuit pending against NAACP leaders and Jaffrey Police Department?

Why has the Attorney General, who ignored ethics complaint filed by King, now used tainted evidence to nail him for unauthorized practice of law?
Watch the movies on his website and follow the instructions on his multi-media blawgsite (hit blawg button) to find out:
