So Romney talked to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and I was wondering, does the NAACP have an exit strategy? I mean, they do understand that one day in the future people will look at them all grouped together by the amount of melanin they have in their skin and consider that horrifically racist, so they’ll want to make sure the organization is defunct by then. Do they have a plan for that? Like do they have some benchmarks to go by to know when to disband their organization before it’s one of the last bastions propagating the racism it was started to fight? Because if it goes on too long, it could become a mockery… doing things like protesting a Hallmark card because “black holes” sounds too much like “black hos”. Then they’d be way past time to end themselves.
Perhaps they could find another word that begins with C to use?
“Crazy” might work.

just try calling any person of the heavily pigmented variety “colored” and see what happens to you. the DOJ won’t be on your side, honkey.
Mainly, they’re just working hard to get people to stop using racist terms like “colored people” …umm, wait. What?
I’m sure, when every citizen of legal age, without a felony record, is guaranteed the right to vote. When segregation is no longer a concern, and employers hire on merit rather than skin colour. When every individual is offered the same opportunities in this country. The NAACP will televise a “Mission Accomplished” speech, and declare itself disbanded.
What?
Why bother when it’s more fun beating a dead horse?
Colored people…baaad. People of color…goood.
Romney learned a hard lesson. Never tell a crowd of people who depend on government largess, that you are going to cut back on…eh…government largess.
In the future, translucent people will be developed who must be discriminated against because you can’t tax what you can’t see!
Or maybe it was named with the same kind of fidelity to meaning found in places like the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.
