Quote of the Day

"The NAACP is appalled that an organization like Bonner and Associates would stoop to these depths to deceive Congress. In this case Bonner and Associates are exploiting the African-American Community to achieve their misdirected goal. These tactics illustrate that discriminatory tactics normally used to deceive voters are now being used to deceive the Congress."—Hilary O. Shelton, Senior Vice President for Advocacy and Washington Bureau Director of the NAACP, on the discovery that an employee of DC-based consulting firm Bonner & Associates had forged letters purporting to be from members of the NAACP and the nonprofit Latin@ group Creciendo Juntos. The letters, sent to Congressman Tom Periello (D-VA), urged a vote against clean energy reform.
