A group of black newspaper publishers on Friday charged Republican Rep. Joe Wilson with racism for yelling, "You lie," at President Obama during his nationally televised address to a joint session of Congress.

The National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA) has canceled a planned January conference in South Carolina, where Wilson is a representative, and joined an economic boycott of the Palmetto State started 10 years ago by the state NAACP in protest of the confederate flag waving from the Statehouse grounds.

Wilson shouted his accusation Wednesday night in response to Obama saying that his health care reform plan would not cover illegal immigrants. Wilson, who drew sharp criticism from both sides of the political fence for the breach in decorum, immediately apologized to Obama and the president accepted. But House Democrats are pressing Wilson to apologize on the House floor or face disciplinary action.

The latest fallout from Wilson's outburst, however, is the first time race has been injected into the controversy.

"As African-American newspaper publishers we stand in solidarity with the NAACP and fully support the economic boycott of South Carolina," NNPA Chairman Danny J. Bakewell Sr. said. "Rep. Wilson's remarks were racist, disrespectful, and a disingenuous violation -- not only of President Obama -- but to the institution of the presidency and only solidified our position and the importance in not spending black dollars where black people are not respected.

This is just an excuse to use their racist chant. I am so sick and tired of this. Obama DID lie.
 
The classic leftist overshoot, completely destroying their credibility.

This is why you dems always lose. the incessant whining.
 
I will grant that at least the state NAACP has a valid reason for its economic boycott of SC. No state in America should be displaying the Confederate flag in any way, shape, or form, be it over a capital building or on a state flag (MS).

Are you suggesting that the boycotters just now realized this and that they were unaware of it, when they first made their plans to have the meeting there??

Republicans boycotted the Dixie Chicks and they didn't yell their remarks in a joint session of Congress.

Remember all that craziness, Freedom Fries! Now those were some crazy times!

Isn't that the truth. They whine about bush getting shouted down but ignore the fact that Clinton got shouted down also. They boycotted the DC's, reviled every one of the world's Muslims, and called those of us who protested the war "traitorous cheese-eating surrender monkeys". Freedom fries, that was a good one, too. Remember those lists circulating of French companies that people were supposed to stop supporting or buying from?

Good times! :clink:
