This website uses IntenseDebate comments, but they are not currently loaded because either your browser doesn't support JavaScript, or they didn't load fast enough.
The Obama Administration has enabled this lady to play the race card like it's going out of style (it already has, I know).
She's completely lost her mind, her credibility, and now the Administration and NAACP are looking like even BIGGER fools for jumping the gun and supporting her as a victim after they jumped the gun by firing her.
Breitbart should be smiling right now. He deserves it.
What she is SCREAMS so loudly that I can't really hear anything she is saying.
She tells a story of "conversion" to a group that is not interested in letting go of racism, (racism is their stock in trade). This group had no way of knowing that she was going to bring the story to a pivot point, during her speech, she seems awefully proud of how she had mistreated the white farmer who was "showing her he was superior to her" (does this sound like a post racial person at all, or someone paying lip service to the idea?)
This Group she was giving her speech to, an NAACP crow was laughing, and nodding approval at her recanting of how she mistreated and even cheated the white farmer, BEFORE they knew she was going to pivot the message to a positive one.
Anyone who ignores this is simply either a racist themselves, or a cynical political hack.
I was giving her the benefit of the doubt over her initial comments since the original clips were just that, clips. I wanted the full context of her speech. As this mess unfolded, the more I began to understand that Sherrod didn't have this great epiphany and the clips expressed her real views. After her Fox bashing as well as calling Fox and Brightbart racists, I knew for sure, she's little more than just another racist on the Left trying to deflect it onto the Right.
I'm probably going into conspiracy theory land but I really am starting to wonder if this whole episode wasn't a set-up from the start…
Yes she is but not that big of a moron… run number one – never hire an employee who has higher qualifications then your self. Certainly, no one in this administration has violated that rule.
I'm a white voter who is getting sick of being called a closet racist. Ideologically I dislike Obama. That doesn't mean I'm a racist. I know Breitbart's beliefs because I pay attention and support what he's said. Calling him a racist is calling all white conservatives racists. I'm voting and I'll remember in November.
mmmmm, I need about $13 million…..where is my $13 million????
Money Money Money….Money!!!!!!!!
Social Justice in the way of COLD HARD CASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Breitbart, you do NOT have to take this Sh*t.
Expose the Pigford claims for what it is…a complete redistribution of taxpayer funds…this crap is bankrupting our country!!!!!!!
By the time Pigford claims II, III, IV and who knows what else get filed, this will cost over a trillion bucks.
obama Championed this cause as a senator-Sherrod is the hero of the Pigford Claimants with the largest award.
Dude, this woman Sherrod was put into the USDA after she got her claim as a liason to other Pigford claimants-seriously to hold their hands and send them down the Track B path to millions. hey why settle for $62,500 when you can go track B and get a USDA arbitrated instant award.
Congressional Committee records show that Dr. Joe Leonard, JR, Assistant secretary of Civil Rights for the USDA testified and they discuss liaisons to be hired within the USDA.
The average award for Track B claimants for Pigford I cases doubled to over $900K for average from 2008 to 2009.
in 2008 average Track b award was around $479,000.
This is Cloward and Piven to the T–work within the system to bankrupt the system.
This is NOT NOT NOT about race at all-this is about redistribution.

Go back to Media Matters Tim and stick it. We don't play that game on this site. Maybe you just got lost on the way to Daily Kos.
Her fifteen-minutes-of-fame are going to be priceless for Andrew Breitbart. So many people have been wringing their hands over this whole thing — saying AB was set up — please. The Obama administration is not just stuck with her, a self-described race-monger, but they are defined by her. This is playing out almost as if AB planned it this way.
Note to hand-wringers: have a little faith next time.
Jamesb - July 22nd, 2010 at 11:57 pm
What a ridiculous woman. She thinks she's off the hook and in the clear. Now would be the strategic time to STFU while you're ahead.
This Pigford v. Vilsack suit sounds like a SHAKE DOWN and her "New Communities" the beneficiary of the ill gotten largesse. Just how does a state level government offical in the year 2009 or 2010 warrant a "pain & suffering" award of $300K? Hmmm? How? Why?
Oh forgot those figures the ones about the doubling of the Pigford Track B awards are from the USDA Pigford claim website–dedicated website with a toll free number.
Do not stand down-expose this socialist crap for what it is.
Wow.. you know, these are gifts from the left. We should all applaud her and let all of her kind speak. As they do, they reveal. Let them reveal. I've heard smarter things come from my 6 year old son, who actually, now that I think about it, is smarter than her. So please conservatives, write CNN and MSNBC etc.. and beg that they put her and her kind on. It's like Christmas daily.
Andrew dangled a little bait and the Liberal, lying NAACP took it hook, line and sinker In the process they exposed the Liberal, lying Obama Administration for the bunch of hypocritical, inept clowns they are… BRILLIANT!
"Breitbart did it?" Really? Is Breitbart the one who denounced Sherrod in front of the NAACP before reviewing the facts? Is Breitbart the one who canned her? You guys should stick to "Bush did it!"
"Snookered?" Really? Sherrod was not the focus of the clip, but it clearly shows the complete ignorance and race-baiting by the NAACP and the racism and gross negligence by Obama and the idiots currently running America.
The Black Tea Party… Are you tired of the NAACP, Black Caucus, Black Panthers and all hollering racist at the Tea Party and conservative Americans? Check this vid for a refreshing view.
lol! me too and I was in a bar when the fireworks started in '91 or whenever. No options besides CNN.
Naan - July 23rd, 2010 at 12:08 am
I would think that Shirley would want very much for this entire episode to blow over and quietly go away. Otherwise someone might start digging into that lawsuit settlement of hers and just exactly why she got that USDA job and what she had been doing all those years after her supposed conversion.
It wasn't the Tea Party, Fox or BB that fired heranyway. No that was the action of her beloved president.
BO sure did seem to be in a big hurry to get rid of her, wonder why?
yup. This whole operation she runs doesn't pass the extortion smell test. I smell a shakedown and a BIG FRAUD scheme. Who will question hard working black farmers about a fraud scheme? Hmm? No political appointee in the South, that's for sure.
This is a bad play for Sherrod. She was getting a lot of sympathy from the public, even from those on the right. Now that she has set up camp at CNN she's showing the world that she isn't a victim but instead a leftist whack job who sees everything through the prism of race.
Andrew I hope you read this, you need to "out" whomever it was that leaked this video to you. This individual had the entire vid they got out to you in pieces they knew exactly what they were doing. We need to know who it is and find out all we can on them. Stop protecting this person Andrew, you were deceived! Outing this person IMO would not violate any journalistic rules with regards to source confidentiality. It is clearer than ever this was a set up. The fringe media is at full force. That ass olbermann with his rhetorical bs came out pretty darn fast. What is happening and this witch hunt against you and Fox is the radicals attempt to capitalize off of the constant lies of racism. To this day there is no proof of racism but that doesnt matter anymore as the control of the narrative prevents that. Oddly I just wrote up my new tactic for STR about controlling the narrative and here they are doing it again.
I implore everyone here to do your homework on this woman, something is not right. This execution of racism by the radicals got a major boost this week regardless of the fact it completely backfired with the initial coverage it was given at Fox. Coverage we all can agree initially was minimal and they had "canned" her before the story ever got steam.
This is a nasty game the radicals are playing which started back in March, they want this tag of racism to stick they want to instigate an event. I cannot stress it enough to all to stand down if you attend any type of meeting, rally, event etc should you encounter infiltrators. Surround them silence them out with positive words, heck sing the national anthem but do nothing more. They are trying to orchestrate a false flag event with Breitbart, Beck and Fox to blame! King Obama wants an event so he through his regulator czar Sunstein can clamp down on any media organization showing opposition to his radical agenda.
Remember folks this is all a game to them, a tennis match really and "we the people" are the ball! STOP playing their game and start playing your game through http://www.savingtherepublic.com
NO ONE looks more foolish and NOT credible now than Breitbart & THIS SITE> what a bunch of fools you are…You will never get your credibility back you whacko nutjob!
Well, I guess Breitbart can sue her for defamation of character, right? At least in his video he was only using her own words. Here, she says some pretty vile stuff about him — things that she could not possibly verify.
YOU are going to get your ass sued off Breitbart! DEFAMATION is clear cut in this case…get ready for payback time…hope your cash stack is big. karma's a bitch.
"Then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) was key in adding a $100 million fund to the 2008 Farm Bill to help pay back those late claims. Now, thanks to a renegotiated court settlement known as Pigford II, Congress is close to passing $1.15 billion in compensation for those late filers, which is attached to the war supplemental appropriations bill.
"The bill has already passed the House. A Senate leadership aide said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) planned to hold a vote on the war supplemental appropriations bill this week — perhaps as early as Thursday — with the discrimination settlement funds attached to that bill.
It is not clear, however, if the supplemental with the settlement funds attached could win the necessary 60 Senate votes to beat back an expected Republican filibuster, according to the same aide.
Paige is urging the Senate to approve the funding before the August break.
“They need to vote on this thing before Congress is recessed for the summer,” Paige said. “It will help us put a black eye behind us as a country.” "
So this I got to ask is the $1.15 Billion in addition to the BY 2010 $1.25 BILLION Obama put in his BY@)!)-because from all that I read that $1.25 BILLION was approved already or is this the one and the same-somebody help me out on this one.
Jamesb - July 23rd, 2010 at 12:46 am
don't address me EVER again troll liberal. Oh and say "buh bye"…
In Ms. Sharrod's full transcript, she calls anyone who is against Obama a racist.
Here, again, since Mr. Breitbart is against Obama's policies, she calls him a racist. That is her "proof".
Ms. Sharrod, it's not up to Mr. Breitbart to prove he isn't a racist, it's up to you to provide facts and evidence that he is! You do that, then he responds and we get a volley going.
Just like when he shows evidence that you ARE a racist, it's up to you to prove him wrong. Judging by the full text of your speech that, that would be impossible.
Racist public employees getting fired is nothing new! She deserved it. Now she's Al Sharpton in drag and will embarrass Obama more we hope she is here to stay.
This woman is talking out of her @ss…..The more the left bellyaches about this, the more obvious
it gets that they got together and tried to setup AB…..For her to say AB wants blacks to be slaves
again is totally moronic….Get over it Sherrod, we fought the battle over slavery 150 years ago…
YOU sound like a skilled lawyer, who know everything there is to know about the law. Oh, ya "OMG" you DON'T sound like a skilled lawyer – you sound like a dolt. "OMG!"
So anyone who disagrees with the President, simply because he's black, is a racist. It has nothing to do with his policies destroying this nation's economic capabilities, or his nationalization of auto, finance or heathcare, eh? Gee, haven't we heard this before from the JOURNO-LIST hacks? Can someone say, BROKEN RECORD?
Someone who spews this verbal diarrhea should not have the luxury of being paid a salary by taxpayers and be working in a job where, in her own words, you can't get fired.
Someone who sues the government for millions of dollars and wins should not later be rewarded with a job where she's paid by taxpayers.
This woman takes a very simple-minded approach towards people who do not share her point of view. Saying that Breitbart wants to bring back slavery because of this little kerfuffle is just preposterous. As Breitbart has said before, you can't prove a negative. He can't prove he's NOT a racist, but she has zero evidence to support her assertion.
I think the only good thing that will come out of Odumbo's presidency is that people will become completely immunized against the tired practice of using the race card.
Sherrod's latest claims are ridiculous and wrong, but that doesn't change the fact Breitbart posted clips which mislead about the substance of her speech and that he explicitly falsely claimed that she was bragging about racism. http://biggovernment.com/abreitbart/2010/07/19/vi....

Breitbart said:
We are in possession of a video from in which Shirley Sherrod, USDA Georgia Director of Rural Development, speaks at the NAACP Freedom Fund dinner in Georgia. In her meandering speech to what appears to be an all-black audience, this federally appointed executive bureaucrat lays out in stark detail, that her federal duties are managed through the prism of race and class distinctions.
—
Like I've said many times before (usually in the context of the NAACP smearing some a greeting card company or some such) falsely smearing someone as racist is reprehensible.
Her prism of race and class distinctions is quite evident. When she says "it wasn't about black and white, well it is about black and white, but more about the poor and those that have." and when she accuses FOX news of racism, rather than jumping the gun, it's quite evident she sees through a prism of race and class distinctions.
The Pigford settlement, and this whole sad affair should make it evident to anyone, that she should not be working in government, mishandling taxpayer dollars, but rather in the private sector, where she could probably get a job trying to resuscitate Air America.
Look at her eyes while she's talking about Breitbart. She's either extremely tired, or she talks as if her brain is barely connected to her mouth. Like her jaw muscles and tongue understand the movements necessary to regurgitate the "…he's a racist" line, but the brain doesn't understand why it's being said.
so then in a sense, Chicago politics will not work on the rest of America? We're watching and we will not turn our heads and say we didn't see anything!
no thanks ignoramus. it's a free country remember? I know you and your like wish it weren't so for some. Too bad if you don't like the TRUTH beeeoatch.
If AB can get sued for 30 seconds of Ms. Sherrod's own words in a video, then every news agency is in big trouble. Not a chance. More likely, she'll sue the government (again) — this time for unlawful firing and (of course, predictably) pain and suffering. And, the government will cave in. In reality, we've had to suffer through this non-story for days now — hey, I want compensation, too!
Enslaving the poor to entitlement programs, by this Administration, to complete the Transformation of America into Socialism is the only slavery I see.
We need this kind of info. Keep it coming. It will spread across America and will open people's eyes to the dirty political games that honest people are victims of.
If her racism can be proved, then defamation won't make it past the courthouse steps. I'm betting there's more evidence of her proclivities and prejudices.
Her desperate "slave" card is a HUGE re-direct away from herself.
Just wondering, since Sherrod is thinking about suing Breitbart, can the Tea Party Movement bring a lawsuit against the congressmen who claimed they were called the N word 15 times. Due to their claims, the NAACP has labeled the Tea Party a racist movement. The media has repeated the congressmen's claims over and over with no proof whatsoever. I would love to have these congressmen testify under oath that their claims are true and see what proof they have.
CHICAGO RALPH - July 23rd, 2010 at 4:43 am
"Breitbart wants Blacks to be slaves again"
yeaaaaaa,……Sherrod had an epiphany.
what is it with all these lefties one these posts,……..
it's almost as if they feel compelled to prove THEY are not racists,…….
My point is that Breitbart mischaracterized her speech before the NAACP as racist and posted two misleading clips as evidence.
What she said before Fox News was wrong and the Pigford settlement should certainly be investigated, but none of that makes what Breitbart said about her speech any less false. I expect lies and misleading video clips from leftists not from the Bigs.
QA_NJ - July 23rd, 2010 at 5:13 am
And the mainstream media never makes mistakes. You've got people on Journolist talking about making up claims of racism at random without evidence to destroy them, which actually happens, and what do we hear from the left about that? *crickets*
It's not about principles, honesty, or the truth for the left. It's all politics.
QA_NJ - July 23rd, 2010 at 5:19 am
And the defamation against the private citizens in the Tea Party for being racist and accusations of racial slurs being spoken that's contradicted by the video evidence? This isn't about principles or karma. It's all about politics, isn't it? If Breitbart broke the law, then that will be up for the courts to decide, not you.
Defamation???? Sorry…SHIRLEY is a RACIST..or WAS..ANd her SPEECH was totally DELIVERED THE WRONG WAY..SHE baited her audience along..while they laughed and applauded..IF she wasnt a RACIST.>SHE WOULD have delievered her speech a totally DIFFERENT WAY.. She screwed herself… AND sadly the truth came out about her deep seeded feelings…. Which to my understanding..she's even sued the USDA before… nice to have a Govt Job where you are in charge of who gets HELP and who doesnt..Wonder how many other cases went by her desk that we didnt hear about..SHIRLEY wants to sue..You can bet that any WHITE FARMERS that never got help from that dept..WILL be called , and will see their possible denial of financial help, wasnt indeed due to her being a RACIST.
Here's the sad part. Nobody (beginning with Breitbart) did their homework and now they are all trying to cover their collective vertical smiles. Unfortunately, Breitbart and Fox have done exactly the wrong thing here. Breitbart stays in the attack mode. That will only help the liberals stay on attack. Fox is trying to justify themselves by taking the position they were just giving the story. Excuse me, but don't the both of you complain continually about the liberal media for the exact same things? Face it, you failed to do your research and you got burned. Now do the right thing. Admit it, apologize for it, and hope you don't have to pay Sherrod too much money. You will pay.
Wow, all 52 cards in her deck are race cards. I lost count of how many got slapped on the table in this interview alone. She's obviously not very bright and totally self centered and wallowing in glory and racist righteous indignation. What a piece of work she is.
Andy and his band of bloggers have a HUGE following willing to pay ANYTHING to fund any defense he may have to mount. Don't get your hopes up. James and Hannah benefited from this group's largess as well. Anyone who's willing to stand up to the mau-mauing of America has a support network to which the left seems blind.
Prof_Turgeson - July 23rd, 2010 at 6:02 am
If this incident teaches us anything, it's that we've become so conditioned to the racism of those who claim to be its victims that such doctored clips as the one that set off this firestorm are entirely believable.
I live and work in DC and have become very used to experiencing what used to be called "reverse racism," but which is now the "new racism," and I saw that clip as very representative of what goes on around here all the time.
Here's an organization that is sanctioned by the government. It's meeting announcements proliferate in every government building: http://www.bignet.org/
One wonders what would happen if someone tried to start up an organization called "Whites In Government?" BIG seems to me to be a forum for teaching people how to game the system. Shouldn't such resources be available to all civil servants?
Don't answer those questions. We all know the answers.
It's long past time we stopped this nonsense, dropped the race cards into the wastebasket, and got on with the business of being just Americans.
Do you suppose that Soros is one of those sleepers planted decades ago by the same "Moscow Center" that ran the bunch that was recently rolled-up?
Geez! Do you think it's possible?
His uber-liberal actions that appear to fly in the face of retaining the wealth he's built up seem to indicate a serious disconnect between what got him to his position of wealth and what's likely to sustain it.
He doesn't seem to me to be the kind who would be racked with liberal guilt. That doesn't offer a satisfactory answer to his machinations.
ALL generalizations are worthless, Xhristopherus ("Anyone who ignores this, etc.). What the NAACP audience knew about her history is unknowable, but we can surmise program lit and her introduction had included bio-data. In any event, she was clearly not discussing Dept of Ag duties when describing a farmer "sent to me for help by (USDA or Georgia Ag Dept.)."
Had I been in that audience, and understood she was relating a past experience, I would've laughed at her depictions of "showing (her) he was superior" and "Of course, I didn't give him the full force of what I could do." I'd consider these humorously-intended lines, not necessarily to be taken literally, but making a point.
Now, I'm white, and while I've encountered no few number of condescending jerks who believed themselves "superior" (intellectually, economically, whatever), I cannot relate to an attitude of racial superiority; but I'd bet dollars to donuts that most audience members born before 1970, knew exactly what she meant and had at one time or another, felt it personally and to the bone. I give them credit for handling it, in retrospect, with humor. That's healthy.
Andrew's gambit was enormously effective, and the NAACP's "We were snookered" nonsense was frosting on the cake: the NAACP was "seeing the speck" in another's eye, while oblivious to the mote in its own. We all have to be careful of that.
Slaves again??? The majority of the black community is and always have been slaves on the liberal plantation. If you stray off, your an "Uncle Tom" or some other derogatory term. Wake up people! You have a home in the conservative movement and just don't see it. This video is just STUPID!!!
No, the evidence clearly shows a racist tea party, not a racist speech in the least, if you watch the entire thing. You ignorant morons who call her racist instead of your own are not proving anything. You just can't handle the truth you ugly hateful conservatives….you even hate the word LIBERAL. Freaks.
fantum - July 23rd, 2010 at 9:03 am
Chicago politics didn't even work very well in Chicago.
false and defamatory- that's funny. It was her speech of a topic of her choice, in front of her (as she would consider it, not I an not anyone else that is not consumed with dividing everyone into small groups to better control) people, which is the whole point of her racism.
It's not as if the white farmer or his wife suffered any pain or suffering all those months fighting for their farm that it took her to realize that It shouldn't be about race but that is all she can see.
Oh, and thanks for the definition but I think I can handle a dictionary if I need it, but in this case it wasn't required.
Uh, yeah, right. And the economy is getting better, this administration created or saved 3 million or more jobs, everybody is sooooo thankful now for their health care package that solved all our problems, we're sooooo grateful for all those unemployment checks that are less than half what we would get if we were actually able to find a job, ya-da, ya-da.
You must really like kool-aid.
Nope, just a muckraking republicant operative trying to do the same as Breitbart…only this time we ain't buying that crap. Editing is an amazing thing isn't it? You can make someone say whatever you want, but the key is the context, and that is where Breitbart & Okeefe screwed up and have lost all credibility, not only for themselves but for the conservative movement as well. Makes you folks look like idiots for believing that crap.
After all that talk of suing Breitbart, now he should sue her for defamation.
BTW, when was Sherrod a slave? When were her parents slaves? It's so insulting to the people who were slaves in the past as well as people who are enslaved now, such as the black Christians enslaved by black muslims in the Sudan, people who are trafficked as sex slaves, etc.
Let her sue. She's going to open a can of ugly, ugly worms for herself.
Based on the blizzard of troll posts I've been seeing lately, it would seem that the hard left has mobilized its battalions of flying monkeys and has sent them forth through their sally port to wreak havoc (too strong: annoyance) upon the blogs of those of us who wish to exercise our First Amendment rights.
This seems to me to be yet another small bellwether that they are getting edgy about the possibility of a significant change come November.
In fact, I think they would be secretly happy about that. They're never more deliriously happy than when they can once again assume the mantle of the oppressed and powerless; it legitimizes in the rabbit warrens of their indecipherable minds their shrieking and wailing from the rooftops and soapboxes.
The worst thing we can do to them would be to begin solving the problems this country has kicked down the road for the last generation or two. I cannot imagine a hard lefty without something to gripe about. They would no longer have a reason for being.
Okay I called Senator Kip Bond, Senator Mccaskill and Congressman Roy Blunt's offices to get the full scoop.
the Supplimental Defense Authorization Act 2010 was up for a senate cloture vote yesterday-it did not pass and has been bumped back to the House-possibly in conference , maybe a vote next week.
The person who answered the phone is not sure how Bond voted and was prettty much clueless-he's due to retire so pretty useless -my guess is he voted against it if he was even there. McCaskill actually voted against cloture-she is against pork where defense is involved-contracts for defense etc. I agree with her vote but McCaskill is progressive scum 100%. She exudes all that is wrong with our system. they could not tell me much.
"Jul 22, 2010: Senate disagreed to the House amendment to the Senate amendment by Unanimous Consent."
from what Blunt's phone dude said-they have had issues with the BY 2010 Budget from Obama (go figure-DUH!) and all of the BY2010 Obama budget has NOT been approved.
I asked Blunt's assistant if the $1.15 BILLION for Pigford that was tacked onto the defense bill was in addition to the Obama $1.25 BILLION figure from his BY2010 or was it one and the same-lower figure.
He was not 100% sure on that one-but he looked it up and he said he thinks it is one and the same. So at least that is good news. Seems the $1.15 BILLION is a lesser number than the $1.25 BILLION that Obama suggested in his BY2010.
I can only find the votes from may and I could not find record of Cloture vote.
Linking to a video is not defamation, or youtube would have been closed a long time ago.
Sirpigsalot1 - July 23rd, 2010 at 12:55 pm
I've said it once and I'll post it again:
The NAACP needs to repudiate their association with Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. Farrakhan and the NOI has a well known reputation of promoting racial hate speech against white people, and particularly against the Jewish community. Also, Farrakhan has a affiliation with the Black Liberation Theologist, Jeremiah Wright, who has also a bigoted agenda preaching white hate speech and racism.
The racist Reverend Wright has also been a featured speaker at NAACP events, spouting the same messages as has fellow racist Islamist cleric Louis Farrakhan. So before Ben Jealous lectures Tea Party members about their "continued tolerance for bigotry and bigoted statements," he ought to pay more attention to his own organization.
It appears to me they took a page out of 'Race Baiting for Dummies'. They need to repudiate their association with the Nation of Islam and Jeremiah Wright, and discontinue their undignified practice of spreading false allegations of racism against the Tea Party movement. Until the NAACP issues a retraction and a apology, they must be held to the same standards as they demand upon the Tea Party.
I had lunch yesterday with two other friends who would be considered "right" and we were all in agreement that Sherrod was the victim. I sure don't feel that way today.
I'm just hoping the evident instabilities in the IntenseDebate system of late do not result in the disappearance of their gems. Their posts stand as testament to the low-grade of mentation prevalent on their side.
Problem is, shooting fish in a barrel gets boring, after a while. Best to let them expire in their own excrement.
I'm betting that was Andrew's point. He showed her speech, showed the NAACP clapping and laughing, showed Obama throw her under the bus, showed Obama pick her up from under the bus, dust her off and giver her a Coke, and now he's showing how unhinged she and her friends are.
Sherrod went from a person who is a racist (by her own admission in her own words) to a saint. Nothing has changed but the narrative. The facts (in this case her own words) speak for themselves.
The MSM is using the victim angle to change the narrative…Pigford investigation will speak leagues of how she was hired after sueing the USDA and then was hired all in a single quarter.
Every time I see your avatar I laugh a little, Sam Kinison was a hoot. I saw him with a couple friends, and he’d sold out a 5500 seat hall, funny as hell. Tried to see him once in NYC at Dangerfields, got Rosanne Barr instead, before she turned into the thing she is of late.
There is only one thing that I truly hate. Want to know what it is? I will say this to you. I have pity for your soul. You must have a bad life that you hate so much. You come here with vile hatred and wish ill of your country. You are pathetic just as your boorish progressive lot is. You do realize its over for your feckless group of traitors don’t you? Play the card but realize, there is only one in the deck and there appear to be many on the table. Run along now hapless fool before someone drops a house on you.
He didn't call her a racist he said "her racist tale" and it was a racist tale….she is also a white house appointee, don't know if that makes her a public figure and fair game though….the video were not totally misleading it showed that she had a change of heart and the article said the same thing…..all said the video was a mistake IMO.
I wonder why her talking about Obama and thanking him for his funding was cut from the transcript?? 39:45
I can see where this woman is and going and I say LET HER RUN WITH IT. Let Ms Sherrod keep talking, screaming, ranting about how much she hates Fox and Breitbart. Encourage her to do more interviews and she'll eventually reveal herself.
Let us not forget that this monumental intellect and masterful rhetorician is the product of one of this countries premier (and I am proud to say, defunct) academic toilets, Antioch University in Yellow Springs, Ohio. For those unfamiliar with this untidy bowl of a college, it is the tank that featured cop killer Wesley Cook (AKA Mumia Abu-Jamal) as commencement speaker (via audio tape, nach, as he's on death row). It's also the water closet which flushed any remaining dignity when it enacted a sex contract policy.
And Yellow Springs, while retaining a few positive attributes, more or less limited to pizza and beer, is like a mini Berkeley. I swear, I once saw a female Antioch studentdrone with a Holocaust-style buzz cut, wearing a potato sack for a blouse.
I expect the environment was, if anything, more radical during her occupation of a seat there, as the student body has been in fairly steady decline for the past 20 years.
Ms. Sherrod, black people *already are* slaves for the most part: slaves to Leftist Ideology and to its most prominent platform, the Democrat Party. You are merely one of the New Slavery's overseers–advocating for the New Slave Masters, informing on those who are thinking of escaping to true freedom, and demonizing one of the advocates of abolition. Congratulations.
Just doing what I do best…airing the truth in front of a bunch of people who are so far gone from believing all the lies that they perpetuate amongst themselves daily….hard to swallow huh? No prejudice here as long as there's no prejudice there., but that isn't the case now is it? I'm always happy to play the iq game, especially to enlighten ignorance, whether it be liberal or conservative, republicant or democant…does not matter to me. Only truth, which both sides have a hard time with obviously.
"There is only one thing that I truly hate. Patriot2Opine" UR pretty damned funny dude…a true hater saying they hate haters! you are NOT a patriot any more than anyone else. Just happy to be ignorant and fearful of the truth is more like it.
Your comment only holds water if 1) you think there's something wrong with staying in attack mode. PS Us conservatives are over constantly allowing libs/dims/socialists control the issues. We are, an will fight back and "attack" as you state and 2) you believe this was all to show Sherrod as a racist. It was to show the NAACP, it's members (and leaders) as racists. And so far, these past few days, with all the kooky comments from this group, it's done that in spades. Oh crap, can I say that without being labeled the dreaded racist. And another thing, with the term "Racist" being thrown about the way it has been lately by the MSM, minority groups and libs/dims/socialists, the term has lost its meaning and is going to be more of a badge of honor that reflects folks that don't submit to having their opinions dictated to them for "fear" of being labeled the dreaded racist word.
Baldilocks, that is rhetorical gold. I never thought in terms of releasing people chained to such a failed and self-defeating belief system, as a form of abolition.
Thank you!
BTW, I love your Twitter avatar.
Patriot2Opine - July 23rd, 2010 at 1:22 pm
But you never asked what it is that I hate. I just made a statement after I asked the question. Do you still want to know?
Stop scratching your head. You will make it raw.
Liver, I hate liver. I would starve to death and not eat it.
You see dipstick, you made an assumption based on what you wished I would say. You took something out of context. I know your tricks, twists and turns. I know your "Rules for Radicals" better than you do, as most of us here do. You are now in the real world. Do you wish to continue?
I agree this is turning into a nightmare, I keep looking for a positive sign in all of this. But at every turn it looks bad, the MSM have completly co-opt this and are using it to their advantage. They are bashing Breitbart, Fox and conservitives in general over the head with this. If this was a set up then Andrew needs to out the person, or at least give some details on how he came in upon the tape and how much of it there was. Or at least some reasurence that this was part of his plan. This sucks the week started out good but ended feeling like a real downer, I thought we won one but now it seems like we lost big time.
an edited and misleading one that is falsely used to try to ruin one's reputation would be considered defamation by most accounts. remember the truth is that was NOT the whole video and that part that was promoted here was not even a true sample….it was EDITED for someone's own purposes to try and DEFAME both her and the NAACP. Only this time you lost.
Re-post from earlier, please take this approach to these hateful smears of racism to heart…
"The foundation of racism and the smear of racism is the imposition of opinion and will.
The bogus smear of racism is being repeated on a daily basis against the TEA Party as a whole in order to empower the powerful to impose their will upon you.
They will repeat the bogus charge until either you start to agree with them or they convince enough useful idiots that the charges are true.
2 plus 2 equals 5….. see also George Orwell and Josef Goebels…
Remember these things the next time you encounter a troll here on the Big's that goes out of their way to label you as racist.
The charge of racism only has power and import when you give them the power to impose it upon you.
Do the right thing, flag them down, report them if needed and then walk away.
Don't play their pure power propaganda games. "
We are being played by the White House, NAACP and the DNC…
Don't fall into their trap, the left WANTS a civil war, that can be the only explanation for their irresponsible actions.
We are one dumb ass and two steps away from totalitarianism and the emperor in waiting is itching for an excuse to act upon his whims.
Slap these troll bitches down and refuse to play their division games.
The_Great_Satan - July 23rd, 2010 at 1:27 pm
I got "snookered" initially too. Turns out she's a run of the mill leftwing degenerate that squeals "racist!" in an attempt to silence opponents. She's a pig.
What's amusing is how the bedwetting leftwing imbeciles want Breitbart to apologize. For what, morons?? Playing video of a racist named Sherrod and exposing her? You leftwing swine would have loved nazi Germany or the former Soviet Union; no dissenting opinion and you could execute dissenters.
We want blacks to be slaves again? How unimaginative! Shirley, we no longer live in an agricultural society. Besides, that's what we have illegal immigrants for; a far better arrangement, since we don't have to clothe, house and feed them in the bargain.
But take heart, Ms. Sherrod! We can still find ways to put black people, or their children at least, to productive use! I have a modest proposal :
“I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.”
I understand that young black children are particularly tasty!
No Miss Sherrod. What we all want is ALL AMERICANS (no damn hyphen) to be self sufficient and personally responsible for themselves and for what they aspire to. We are not heartless bastards, if for some tragic reason a person cannot (emphasis on cannot) work we as a society will be there for them.
"We are in possession of a video from in which Shirley Sherrod, USDA Georgia Director of Rural Development, speaks at the NAACP Freedom Fund dinner in Georgia. In her meandering speech to what appears to be an all-black audience, this federally appointed executive bureaucrat lays out in stark detail, that her federal duties are managed through the prism of race and class distinctions. "
And he was right. Her whole speech, given at a fundraiser for an organization devoted to entirely to racial issues, was about how race factored into her career.
But you forgot the rest of Brteitbart's statement:
"Eventually, her basic humanity informs her that this white man is poor and needs help."
How about that? You kind of left out the rest of Breitbart's statement in order to portray him as a racist.
Wizeup? hmm what a odd name for some own whose head is stuck in their own a**. I find it beyond hypocritical that a member of the so called enlightened liberal left would be so vile. Eh oh well, to bad for you libtards conservatives will win the day in November. While your crying for your mommies I'll be dancing naked in the street…well dancing anyway…well maybe not dancing either. Any way let me leave ya with this one SUCK IT troll and go back to your rock.
Oh and BTW she has no case for a Defamation suit I've talked to a couple lawyer friends of mine, unless she gets a lib activist judge. But then some where down the appeals line Breitbart would be cleared and this woman exposed for what she really is.
But doesn't what she said about Fox news vindicate AB's point? She does see through a prism of race and class distinctions. And her audience agrees with it. Heck, the NAACP (Heck even the name of the organization is racist) condones it! They ought to rename themselves National Association for the Advancement of Equality if they weren't so intent on dwelling in the racist past.
So she says, she is not a racist and has white friends?
JacksonPearson - July 23rd, 2010 at 1:45 pm
What an absolutely moronic and bald faced lying statement. Andrew Breitbart made no such comments. The video never was about Shirley Sherrod, but instead about the members of the Georgia Chapter of the NAACP nodding, clapping and agreeing with her rant, of which was ample proof of racism.
Why did Andrew publish the video, was because the main body of the NAACP are accusing the Tea Party Movement of being racists, with no evidence to support their allegations. However, the Georgia tape proved Breitbart of being correct about the NAACP racism towards whites. And for some motivational reason, are asking their membership to pledge to be an "NAACP American," whatever that means? http://i29.tinypic.com/2mesl8j.jpg
I thought we were one country, but apparently to the NAACP, we're not and are something else!
Unbelievable. You really know your stuff. Now we understand what's happening. Before Obama got in, we didn't have to be concerned with all of this, now we have to pay attention. Thanks BuddyTWD.
Well, if she wants to go to court then all her radical past should be put on parade. I don't think Obama really wants that, but this woman is out for money and fame, even though she is a racist. Her racism will continue to service and her radical ideas will too. She represents the NAACP pretty good, but then she is one of their kind. Breitbart is not one of her kind. I think that's the way she herself used those terms. Going after whitey is her pure religion, even if Breitbart didn't ask for her to be fired, others came up with that on their own, and the NAACP had all the tapes from the beginning.
Why is everybody getting on Breitbart's case here when all he did is jump at the opportunity to out a racist. It's not Breitbart's fault it turned out to not be true and it's damn sure not his fault he ended up looking like a horse's behind. Like my man Michael Savage said on the air the other day, Breitbart was set up by the Obama Administration!
I mean, let's face it, he's a journalist, just like James O'Keefe. What do you expect him to do? As a journalist, you can't always look into the backstories of every story you run…sometimes you gotta say, "Screw it" and go to print. Go to print first, ask questions last is motto we journalists live by.
So, leave Breitbart alone already! Don't shoot the messenger!
Patriot2Opine - July 23rd, 2010 at 1:48 pm
I expected a much quicker response from someone with such a high IQ.
Hmmm, did mommy Ariana or daddy George call you in for dinner? I’ll be here when your done in case you want to really discuss things instead of casting aspersion, conjecture and innuendo.
I'm old enough to remember that "superior" tone, my grandfather among them. I can still hear it today in my dad, who lives with me. I also hear the stories, and I understand why some of it was there, and fear and ignorance was enough to do the rest, and that goes for both sides. But times have changed, and most people have changed their attitudes, most white people at least, except people like my dad who is basically removed from society and won't change anyway. People like her need to be outed, because HER tone was also one of superiority, something she exudes, yet condemns, with the same breath. The irony must be lost on her. The only way we'll get to a "Post Racial" anything is if EVERYONE stops talking about race, and realizes that they're hurting more than helping. Except, of course, when trying to describe someone, especially to the police, because it's hard looking for someone when you don't know if they are going to be black, white, brown, etc….you know, the REAL, RESPONSIBLE kind of profiling.
Then believing in the fearless leader makes people look like geniuses? The same fearless leader that has forced health care down our throats, financial reform, huge deficit spending, etc….. I will assume that you may not want to be lumped in with the fearless leader so why are you lumping every one here into one group?
Simple question: can only people of Anglo Saxon decent be racist?
Kevin Stowell - July 23rd, 2010 at 1:53 pm
Thou doth protest too much which tells me your the one who, while sitting on the crapper, fashions nooses out of kite string and muses on "the world that could be" if only you could have your way with Blacks and your toy hangman's noose.
I also noticed your conspicuous silence on pedophilia. What are you trying to hide?
Amen! If a white man was making a speech in front of the Chamber of Commerce, and used “his kind,” even in the most glowing parable on race relations, he’d be pilloried in the press, into absolute oblivion.
She is a racism enabler, this is painful to watch. For those of us who ACTUALLY care about racial hate, this is a person who is a stereotypical racist enabler.
I do love a punching bag session occasionally but then you know that already. LOL
I also know you like to swipe the bag yourself every so often too.
The IQ thing set me off. I love it when these loons come off with high and mighty brilliance, just showing how little they really have. Ahhhh, is there any wonder why we are where we are?
Yeah, telling the truth now is bothersome to the Left. It's almost comparable to throwing water on the witch in 'The Wizard of Oz' and watching her melt…
It certainly didn't take the Obama Administration and the NAACP long to get old Shirley back on the reservation! The way she's treating Glenn Beck after he took her side in all of this kind of points towards her being racist if you ask me. Shuck and jive, Shirley! Tote that bale fo yo massa's in de Wite House!
It is not swiping at them and making them a punching bag, it is that little hope I have of actually thinking that they will come to their sense's and make peace with reality.
Ah shoot who am I kidding, it is simple fun to play with people who can only think with their feelings and can not understand a rational thought if it bit them on the butt.
Andrew has brought something to the forefront that most may not have noticed. Watch the clip of Shirley giving her speech to the NAACP again – listen to those in the background cheering & laughing in agreement on how she treated a 'white farmer', before she gets to her point. Why give a speech highlighting the fact that there are not enough "people of color" working at the USDA, then point out that a "white man" killed her father. Sure she touched base on it being about the have's and have-nots. Resurface of the 'race card' is being brought forward by groups like the NAACP. There is one purpose to continue to dwell on the past, It's all about power & control by the corrupt elite – political gain. Discrimination we've seen in the past couple years come from, humm – the New Black Panther party and those alike.
Speeches like this are repulsive! What about Kings Dream!!! If she want's to go back in time way back to the 80's – I'd like to enlighten her on something. It happens in both directions! Being "white", living and attending schools in Baltimore is dangerous. Physically assaulted, chased and harassed daily which still occurs today. Way, way, way back in the 70's & 80's "white people" were beat, chased, harassed – fearful of not knowing if you would make it to or home from school. Further more, those "people of color" who mingled with "white people" are treated with the same violence. I do not see a "person of color" being rejected or harassed outside the inner cities, it's what King's Dream is all about!!
Deliberate division, reparations and redistribution of wealth. Shirley is right on one area, "Change" (not Obama's definition though) is needed – perhaps moving forward and not dwelling on what happened in the past. The first slaves on our soil were "Native" – not African. History is twisted & inaccurate to fit the selfish needs of others. The constant inaccuracy of Obama being the first "black" in the W.H. is WRONG! He is biracial & is NOT the first biracial to occupy the W.H. His parentage is biracial. He is 50% white, 43.75% Arab "Muslim" & 6.25% Black = His father was from Kenyan – NOT a US Citizen, from the Lou Tribe which were/are Arab.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." – Martin Luther King, Jr.
I use liberal amounts of toilet paper to wipe my ass. Damn, that didn't hurt at all.
…and she is a racist. Ever read or watch something other than Rosie?
It is out of their coveted book after all and perhaps with all those heads blowing up, some of us will have jobs doing clean up. di_da is wise and alpha.
Notice how among the 24/7 MSM coverage of Sherrod, there is no mention of the her $13 million shake-down law suit against the American taxpayer. No wonder why Sherrod is Obama's dream girl.
Last time I was at a Tea party and looked around, I'd have to say that all of America was there too waving signs and having fun…something you libs just can't seem to do.
Ezra Klein — so nice to hear from you Ez. Let’s get on the phone with Yglesias, Tomasky and Ackerman and make up some dirt on Cheney. C’mon guys…Krugman says he will back it up and I got the OK from Gibbs.
And AC is with us, as always (my favorite teabagger)
Oh, I've been trying to build up resistance. But short of taking an angle grinder to my corpus callosum, there are some mental images which require liberal servings of brain wipe.
Why do you see racism everywhere you look? Do you obsess THAT much on hanging Blacks? What do you do with little boys and sheep when you're done with THEM? Why all the hate?
Sherrod's only reputation was that of a racist, so I do not think she is suffering. The left will embrace her, use her for their purpose and then toss her under the bus…again.
It's the liberalism is a mental disease thing that has you flumoxed. The insidious thing about the disease is that it makes you think you know something you don't.

Anderson Cooper was the first to denegrade half the American population with his term "teabagger".
Shamefully, this poor excuse of a journOlist, did not even call Sherrod out when she said the the Breitbart wants black to be slaves again. That ludicrous and hateful comment went unchallenged.
She seems bent on tarnishing most of the goodwill given her during this craziness. I watched Fox that day and Glenn Beck, all he did was defend her and ask for more info. How can she continue to villify people who weren't envolved in her ordeal. Seems to take back the points she'd made previously. I'm tired of seeing her pop up on every channel.
Follow the money, see how many of her relatives and non-white friends got Taxpayer money on this Pigford deal.
lovesjeeves - July 23rd, 2010 at 2:34 pm
It is frightening to see how one person in the media could have thrown the White House for a loop. However influential Fox news and Breitbart may be, they should be of little or no concern to a genuine leader who knows what is currently at stake for our nation's future. The focus of this story should be how the Leader of the Free World and his Administration could be so intimidated by the folks at Fox (in particular Glenn Beck who they apparently thought might run a story about the incident), that they could rush to a faulty and rash judgment without first gathering all the facts. This is the bigger story here and a cautionary tale. Without common sense, but instead a desire to protect themselves and initially disassociate from Ms. Sherrod, they acted erratically. Enemies of America have again seen how easily misguided and manipulated are this President and his pals. Breitbart should be commended for illustrating without any doubt, that this is an unwise and dangerous Administration. Otherwise, they would have endeavored to do the right thing from the start with deliberation and care, rather than turning a potentially inconsequential blip into a major debacle.
What has Breitbart ever done for black people? Well, for one thing, he offered to donate $100K to the United Negro College Fund if only someone would prove that a few Congressmen were telling the truth.
I happen to think Andrew did a public service in a back handed way. If this incident creates more caution in newsrooms and amongst the political class about reacting to incendiary situations before all facts are in, that'd be great.
"I just made a statement after I asked the question. Do you still want to know? " You started with that statement , it was not posed as a question…the question came after you said you hate….which I believe you do, along with most others on this site….quite a big bunch of crybaby haters.
doesn't surprise me that you are obsessed (& affiliate yourself) with Pedos. you are a pretty sick puppy so….keep up the crazy references they make you look mahvelous baby!
we'll see when the chips and dust & all settle…bet that a suit gets filed though, no matter what you & your like say. Say all you want but the court will decide if she does.

Kevin Stowell - July 23rd, 2010 at 3:07 pm
Is there a club for racists? Do these clubs sell memberships? Do you have a Constitution or do you just open each meeting with a Pledge of Allegiance to George Wallace and Robert Byrd and a "Sieg Heil?" Do they sell little gold tie tacks configured like nooses? Inquiring minds want to know.
So let me get this straight a tape owned by the NAACP is leaked and cropped to make her look like a racist. The white house forced her to resign Glenn Beck and Rush limbaugh stood up for her. But Brietbart is the enemy?? You know what Miss Sherod you allready are a slave. You've enslaved yourself to the progressives. You wont even return the phone calls of men who stood up to you because you want to be in good grace with the progressives. You make me sick. You embrace the group that turned its back on you who I might add only turned and embraced you because people on the right took your side. Now you turn your back on them. You are a coward and a tool of the left. TOOL that is all they will soon forget you and leave you to rot and you deserve it.
I score that a win for KS and P2O….You really didn't have to work to hard for that red flag…..Did you?…
Kevin Stowell - July 23rd, 2010 at 3:17 pm
Why did you capitalize pedo? It's not a proper noun but rather an abbreviation of a technical term. Did you capitalize it because, for you, it is a religion? Do you hang the little boys, too, when you're done with them? Why all the hate for Blacks and children? Are you doing unto others as you would like for them to do unto you? If so, YOU'RE the sick puppy.
And any neo-Communist can be an idiot – like you, for example. Learn to think before criticizing anybody else's spelling, turd.
Better run along now. Comrade Clueless in the Oval Office is handing out more Stimulus checks to all the good little useful idiots. You don't want to miss out, do you?
blah blah……….they know (nacacp, nbpanthers, dems and bo) they "jumped the shark" on this one…………….but now they get dangerous………they will need to "manufacture" some violence to keep it going, and ya better believe they will
George Soros and Comrade Clueless of the Oval Office pay these trolls by the word. Stupid makes them rich, you know. What else explains King Narcissus and the First Clydesdale making $5.5 million last year?
So what? If obfuscation and misrepresentation were crimes, we could simply build a 50-foot wall around Washington and imprison every one inside for a very long time. Even if he's guilty as charged, AB isn't the first commentator or politician to take this low road, and he definitely won't be the last.
Yep……
Posting that video of Sherrod owning up to past racist acts to the delight of her NAACP audience is just part of his elaborate plan for the re-institution of slavery.
I'm no doctor but I believe there is medication out there that would help this poor crazy women.
You're a censorship NAZI. Ja vol Herr college kid DOLT. Free speech for thee but not for me? Typical progressive NAZI. You wanna march to kill babies you don't "like" and goose step at the "dance club" tonight?
I stopped worrying about that in 88 when I wasted my vote on Jesse Jackson in the primary. After that, hell to what others think, they don't know what's in my heart.
Personalitist. Aw, who am I kidding, that would be accurate and true. They don't do that so why should we have to? You're right, mijowi, you're a racist. ) I apologize for the momentary lucidity that never occurs to LefTards.
One thing President Sanford has done is embolden all these quota moochers. No one with a brain could watch the full speech she gave and not know she is a racist. Glad when the next crisis hits so this thief can go back to stealing from the taxpayers and get off the TV.
Kevin Stowell - July 23rd, 2010 at 4:07 pm
"I love it when these loons come off with high and mighty brilliance, just showing how little they really have."
And don't they love to do that? I'm sure it's meant to be a tweaker but. . .I can't say that, whenever I'm dealing with these people, the words "rocket scientist" ever come to mind. That little booger-eater, yesterday, PimpleBarn, or something like that had its smarm, snark, sarcasm, and condescension turned up pretty high.
She said she was "doing research" yesterday but what she didn't say was it was opposition research. Look what I just found–wondered why I hadn't seen her today: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/social/bimplebean
At first I thought she had been unjustly attacked. Now I know she only wants to assist Obama in his efforts to create racial hatred.
It could be that she thinks she will be able to put her foot on the neck of lower income people, both black and white. Good luck! and may you reap nothing but misery and failure in your efforts to profit off this incident.
I couldn't agree more with Mrs Sherrod. All the republican party and it's elk has to sell is "Fear and Hate". When was the last time we got a terror rating? Bush was in office right? Repubicans know that most of their base as these racist thoughts in their mind and all they have to do is trigger the thought via Limbaugh, Hannity or any other hit man or women and the dogs will come a hawling. It like those terrorist sleeper cell. They act normal and get along in society until their the bell rings that make them go stupid!!! Same thing with the republicans and their followers. The minute the republicans lose the white house they start ginning up the converation about guns and the constitution and the dogs start barking.
Slaves. Who'd want one, even if it were legal and <gulp> moral? Simply too much trouble. Wouldn't take one on a bet. And why is that (some) blacks think everything revolves around BLACK, BLACK, BLACK? Most white people can go days, weeks, without ever even thinking about blacks or blackness or racism. How pathetic that so many blacks seem to have their lives dominated by the concept and the manufactured victimhood arising out of it. Very sad. And very racist, too.
When I lived in Germany, the choice was CNN and BBC America. I took BBC. Not the greatest, but at least an outside view of America as opposed to an insular one.

Sooo she just went back to the argument that its all because the President is Black?!?
Wow, just wow. How many circles has the administration done in the past few days on this issue?
Everything she said in those videos was racist, it was fully in context. Rough quote from memory: "This is not about black and white anymore, well it is about black and white but also its about those who have and the poor." That quote says that they are only laying down their racism to agree with socialism, but that when they have that (socialism), racism will be their priority.
There is something wrong with this whole tape business….the second tape is completely different from the first, and I would never have come out of my mouth as did this woman, she has no business running any department of our government. She is a racist, weither it was last year or yesterday….she still is. And worse, the war now for her is the ones who have and the ones who donot….now we can get into serious reasons why that is…starting with the democrate party.
Our country has been set back to maybe the 60s over race. It is sad and ridiculous at the same time. Has the NAACP documented their proof of racism against the Tea Party attendees yet? Shirley is becoming a bit less folksy on this vid.
LOL I just caught up on this big old thread and it appears the Progressives are getting a bit scared as we show them that the RACIST deck of cards is WORN OUT!!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA
If you say it often and loud enough you can believe and once you believe you are entitled and once you are entitled you demand and once you demand you get. What they fail to understand is you can't get what we aint got. It is all gone and China soon comes a calling.
What a disappointment, she does not get it at all. So much for her redemption. It is the racist talk that brought about her unfortunate experience, or was it all staged, I am beginning to wonder. It was the lying congressman who said he was called the N word 15 times and spat on, the black panther's not being prosecuted, and the left delighting in destroying anyone that stands in the way of their Marxist agenda with false racist accusations that played a huge role in what happened to Shirley, and now she joins in, go figure.
She's on to Breitbart's double super secret plan to repeal the 13th Amendment! And he'd have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddlers at the USDA!
Oh missy,
I don't mean you. I just shamelessly piggy backed off your post cause it was high on the list, lol.
But I do think folks here need to quit feedin the trolls on stories like this. It's not like they care what we think. So why should we? Just breeze past like they never happened.
btw try to catch my post on WHAT TO DO WITH A ROGUE LAME DUCK CONGRESS on a couple of threads here. It's a brilliant strategy Krathammer devised and a wicked weapon. Brings a whole new definition to ROCK MEET HARD PLACE.
I have no doubt whatsoever that Obama recruited her during his phone conversation with her (apology) to play this role and crank up the heat. Another O-bot ready willing and able to fall before the Emporer and kiss his stinky feet.
I hope that she is stupid enough to fight AB in court.
Thanks, Docneaves – your last point is one of my head-shaking bug-bears (the "no racial profiling" mantra), frisking old ladies from Sioux City in an airport line, while a 26-year-old middle-eastern male paying cash for a one-way ticket,, wearing a Ninja mask and suicide vest is waved through without a question or arched eyebrow. It's insanity!
About Shirley Sherrod: While I didn't find any real fault with her demeanor in the original NAACP-speech tapes (premised on her relating an old incident to make a point about growth and gaining insight and awareness), her subsequent expressions do show clear bias — not necessarily racist, but they are a race-baiting variety, aimed at smearing apparently those not in lockstep with the Progressive agenda (Fox News, Breitbart).
The problem is, most of the left (like Sherrod) and some on the right are bringing a racial focus where it doesn't belong, to something that is ideological and political, and that is creating racial strife where there should be none as well as picking at the scabs on old wounds. I think that's a very dangerous game.
For this person (Sherrod) to call someone else racist is like an elephant saying a gazelle is overweight. NAACP is the new "Klan with a Tan".

I just watched BOR. Bernie Goldberg and BOR say you (Breitbart) share some of the blame for this whole incedent. Dana Perino and the Lib Radio Talker said Breitbart was no hero either. I am amazed.
Breitbart aired Sherrod's statements to expose bigotry by the NAACP. Breitbart achieved what he set out to do and now gains the ire of FOX? Breitbart never put any words into Sherrod's mouth. You should be hailed as a hero.
The losers in all this are:
BOR
FOX's credibility
Shirley Sherrod
NAACP
MSM
Silencing of the Truth Tellers
The NAACP posted the following on their website: The video of Shirley Sherrod released by Andrew Brietbart's Big Government Blog on July 19 didn't tell the full story. It was selectively edited to cast her in a negative light. Andrew Breitbart is being portrayed as a villian in this incident because he posted the video on his website. Breitbart said the Shirley Sherrod video was about the NAACP not her. He said the NAACP called the Tea-Party Protesters racists and are still saying some black Congressman were called the N-word at the Capitol during the healthcare protest. These are false claims and Breibart has a $100,000 reward for any video proof of the allegations. No one has collected the reward, even though Jesse Jackson Jr. video-taped the walk.
People are claiming the Sherrod video was taken out of context; that Sherrod was talking about a parable that changed her viewpoint on race relations. The video was from a speech Shirley Sherrod made on March 27, 2010, at the 20th Annual NAACP Freedom Fund Banquet. In it she says, …“The first time I was faced with a having to help a white farmer save his farm…
…He took a long time talking, but he was trying to show me he was superior to me…But he had to come to me for help…What he didn’t know was …I was trying to decide how much help to give him.” (laughter) Although, the context of what Shirley was saying was not yet revealed,the crowd started laughing. I believe what Breibart was trying to say was that the video was about the NAACP and their reaction of laughter when she made the statement.
In the same speech Sherrod said, “I haven’t seen such mean-spirited people as I’ve seen lately over this issue of healthcare. Some of the racism we thought was buried; didn’t it surface. Now we endured eight years of the Bushes and we didn’t do the stuff these Republicans are doing because we have a black President.” Because you oppose Obama’s radical policies in his efforts to “spread the wealth,” you are called a RACIST…
…On July 22,2010, Shirley Sherrod was on the John King show on CNN. King asked her, “If you had 30 seconds with Andrew Breitbart, what would you say?” Sherrod responded, “I’d tell him he’s a lie. He knew exactly what effect that would have on the conservative racist people he’s dealing with. That’s why I started getting the hate mail and hate calls.”
The Obama Administration, Statists, NAACP and the so-called Main-Stream Media want to marginalize and silence the Tea-Party movement, Andrew Breitbart, Fox News and Glen Beck with false claims of racism and telling lies. Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels said, “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”

At first I saw Shirley Sherrod as a sympathetic figure, that her words were taken out of context.
Then I heard the whole tape, and listened to her own words out of her own mouth on matters such as Breitbart, racism, equal treatment under the law, etc.
Now, I know she is little more than a mere stereotype of an uppity Sunday-come-to-meeting trash-talking racist snot.
She *may* have had an initial beef with Brietbart, but everything she's said and done since has been an attempt to gain a national stage for her sorry butt and her *typical* black racist mantras.
Hmmm…it seems we've been visited by one of the more educated Constitutional scholars from the democrat platform committee, or at least by one of the MSM's experts on the Constitution and Bill of Rights. What chils just said is an extremely concise description of their collective program.
Mhu_Cao - July 23rd, 2010 at 5:55 pm
There was no clear cut defamation, you toad. If anything, Breitbart can bury a defamation hatchet in her faux-long-suffereing @ss. You smell of race-baiting, no-account, field rat, unschooled ignorance. The bitch, wizeup, is your nappy-haired Momma, and the horde of sweaty, grunting belly-lifters she sleeps with.
And there you have it. That social little butterfly. How sweet. I bet mommy Ariana is proud of her little pod.

"Sherrod: Breitbart Wants Blacks to Be Slaves Again."
Sorry Shirley, that old shit used to work back when, but today, the people are onto you. You should have stopped while you were ahead. Bernard Goldberg sized you up right, when he stated, a few days ago, you didn't know who Andrew Breitbart was, and today, somehow your crystal ball's telling you that (gag) he "wants blacks to be slaves again…one big PFT lady!
I'm posting this link in the various threads that deal with race on the Breitbart blogs. This is an important statement, made more so because it comes from a credible Senator (Please no comments about his being a Dem. He's someone a lot of Virginians respect). He's saying something that should be a central issue in the alleged debate on racism that is taking place in the land. No doubt AG Holder doesn't think highly of this opinion but I'm very glad Webb had the chutzpah to come out with it: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703...
You mean like the edited video of a black man with an AR-15 slung around his shoulder, but MSNBC saying it was a white racist??? If one is defamation, so is the other and vice-versa. You fail.
Those must be pretty special folks there. I wonder if they have to pass a test of loyalty to ignorance before they are allowed out. You know, commit certain talking points to memory and such. They have to get their buffoon badges before public displays.
LMAO! You conservatives are such clowns. Yes, your dumb web-site got caught red-handed misinforming to the American people. Just admit it and move on, like Fox News has recently done. You idiots wouldn't know a critical thought if it slapped you across the face.
Just let her keep talking CNN, she'll make you look stupid before she's through… There was an agenda here and she's a big player in it… Can't wait to see the money she will roll in after she sues the government this time…
sfcmac - July 23rd, 2010 at 7:04 pm
Wizeup, douchebag. Your proctologist called. He found your head.
I don't mind some of the "red flag" crowd. They have things to say and we need to be challenged now and again. But you can tell when they're just chumin to get a rise outta folks and that's just a dead ender, to me.
Say how's Perry farin. I know his numbers took a hit over immigration but I can't see the Dem being better….not for Texas anyway. What's your take?
Thanks, Breitbart. Coward where you hiding….you do know this is boomerangin on you, right? I mean look at the white farmer coming to her aid. Love it! Her credibility isn't shot at all..Actually its funny as I watch Fox news in Georgia running segment showing that she has earned a good vacation and will be going "fishing" (country term) with the white farmer who you said she spoke ill of. Poetic Justice. Cherry on top: Defamation Lawsuit!
No, Andrew doesn't want black to be slaves. His sin is
much worse. He's a metaphor for the problem with the
Republican Party today. They've been hijacked by
opportunist and grafters; snake oil salesman! And the
Republican Party needs to wake up before they become
the Regional Party, aka, the South!
Let me give you a few key Republican FUBARs from history.Please Repeal these before repealing Obama's
1. Richard Nixon-Took our dollar (money) off the gold standard. Also got in bed with Kaiser Foundation for
healthcare..what came out of that (HMOs).
2. Reagan signing of 1986 Tax Reform Act. For those of you who hate taxes UNLESS you are over 300K you didn't benefit from this at all. The made all employees/Self Employed people be on the hook for
taxes. You have no real deductibility unless you have "children" or own a home (mortgage interest deductibility)-no other country has this one. He removed rental payment, credit card interest from the equation another assault on those in the middle class and Self Employed Small Business Owner. Now if you
are Big Business or Investor you made off like fat cats. Most Businesses EARN, SPEND and TAX on what's left (so let's break even or make a profit; then come up with another way to offset income). While the employee/Self Employed are ONLY allowed to EARN, then BE TAXED, and learn to LIVE off what remains after Taxes. Wow, and that was a Great President?? to the wealthy for sure.
3. Bush Tax Cuts, 2 unfunded, mandated WARS for what? Nothing, we didn't loot their Treasury, the $10B in currency is still missing and you guys are arguing over a little old Lady's comments about a white farmer who came to appreciate each other. Sad state of affairs for our country. And you represent a "Think Tank"?
4.Arguing over Obamacare as you call it when we've been giving FREE healthcare to IRAQIS since the war
has begun.
richardporter, I think you're being a little harsh: what's 14 million between friends?
sfcmac - July 23rd, 2010 at 7:39 pm
Picture this scenario:
A white politician stands up in front of a crowd of constituents, and says:
"The first time I was faced with having to help a BLACK farmer save his farm, he took a long time talking but he was trying to show me he was superior to me. I know what he was doing, but he had come to me for help. What he didn’t know while he was taking all that time trying to show me he was superior to me was, I was trying to decide just how much help I was going to give him.”
“I was struggling with the fact that so many WHITE people had lost their farmland, and here I was faced with having to help a BLACK person save their land. So I didn’t give him the full force of what I could do.”
How fast do you think the NAACP, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Julian Bond, Morris Dees, Obama, and the whole conglomeration of outraged, indignant, holier-than-thou, "certain ethnic" community would take to the streets, screaming "RACISM!!" at the top of their lungs?
If Mr Breitbach had not surfaced a doctored video, Obama wouldn't have had the opportunity to have her play the race card. Breitbach is a bone-headed slanderer.
Shirley, your ignorance is breathtaking. I can see from you sharp commentary that you have read many of Andrew Breitbart's posts in order to have come to such an accurate knowledge of his deep seated racial issues.
Good luck with that lawsuit btw, libel suits are almost impossible to win. First you'll have to prove that it was BigGov that "edited" the video. Meanwhile you're making the rounds like a media whore (to all the liberal media outlets that is) slandering Breitbart!
The more Sherrod talks, the loonier she becomes. Breitbart reported the facts, and now all Sherrod and the NAACP can do is twist & spin.
Pathetically, the Race Card players have even gone so far as to blame Fox News. When the fact is the Obama Administration threw Sherrod under the Bus before Fox News even reported the story.
(How come Sherrod isn't condemning those who threw her under the Bus? Perhaps, because she has been promised something?)
Moving on:
Sorry, Race Card players, but you falsely played the card far too many times. The Race Card is now worn out and nobody takes your cries of Wolf seriously.
Go ahead, keep falsely calling those on the Right Racist, it is now becoming a Trophy. Because we know when Liberals-Democrats, NAACP, Obama, & the likes of Sherrod play the Race Card; it is a feeble act of desperation on your parts. You have lost the discussion, you have lost your case, you have plain lost; having nothing more, and another Trophy goes on the bookshelf.
Like any good lib she can smell the green stuff. Sue sue sue.
To think I actually felt sorry for this woman at first. She is milking this for everything its worth,and I no longer feel even a little bit sorry for her . sheesh, talk about Prostituting yourself. Next shes gonna Write a book and sell the movie rights and she wont need that cushy Govt Job.
What a racist moron!! It's obvious now that this whole thing was a set up to bring down Breitbart, Fox news and all of the rest of the real americans who love this country. You scum bag liberals are the slime of the earth and will pay the price in the long run!!
It is amazing to see the amount of RACISTS on this site.
Dear Mr, Brietbart and his stupid supporters,
You can hide all you want and lie all you want but it just shows the nasty agenda of you freaks!
I have looked at this man Brietbart LIE and tell so many different stories eg. (1) at one time he recieved the entire tape, (2) another time he received a snippet, (3) got it in March, (4) got it in April, (5) was about NAACP and Sherrod, (6) next time it was the crowd,, etc etc he is such a LIAR.
How can you people who support this guutersnipe and will go to church to play Christians on Sunday, support this type of behavior day in day out.
Where was your damn voices when BuSh was giving the country the Royal Flush. Maybe it is a good thing he was not black!!!???***@@@
His accomplice- FoxNews and Hannity and Coulter—we expect nothing less- they are Supreme Liar so he was in good company.
It is a shame that after eight years of destruction that this CREEP is a "celebrity" when the President has to deal with left-over CRAP from Bu$h.
People get a life!
All I can say is that I hope for all the worst for Brietbart and people of his ilk.
You will be surprised in November. Mark my word. America is greater than this and as much as people of your type is not want America needs at this time to move forward.
You damn racist!
My hope is that you go bankrupt.
It's liberalism both black & white that keep them on the plantation. Not Fox or Breitbart!! Wake up people, you have been used for decades. Drop the pride and see the reality of what's going on around you. http://biggovernment.com/mzak/2010/07/16/the-ku-k...
Good one. If they paid Dalibama by the word he would have made about $13 million last year. If he got paid for keeping promises, telling the truth, and actually doing something other than talking, he would have only made about $2.18. That's not enough for halters, blankets and oats for the First Clydesdale.
wonder_all2 - July 23rd, 2010 at 8:36 pm
Just how does that work? We don't have slavery in this country anymore, Shirley. It's illegal. Remember?
So Shirley, tell us. How exactly do you think Andrew would ever be able to make sending blacks into slavery happen? Who are these slaves going to be working for, Shirley? How does that even work?
You do know you sound ridiculous, don't you Shirley?
Sooo Sherrod is being offer a civil rights czar position within the USDA-this woman is the poster child for Pigford cases-she will approve all the Track B claims no matter what facts may dictate-this will cost over a trillion when all is said and done.
Question was Sherrod speaking at NCAAP event because she was a high ranking employee/appointee of the USDA OR was she speaking because she was THE LARGEST AWARD in the Pigford I lawsuit.
inquiring minds want to know.
In the name of social justice, i want to know.
So anybody got a line on the flyer they used to advertise her speaking engagement?????
seriously this woman is a hero to the Pigford claimants.
$13 million-Sherrod and her husband got a big chunk of that $13 million.
She started her communal farm on grants-and according to her they had counted on more funding from grants-BUT the governor of Georgia at the time cut those grant programs (probably for something silly like balancing the state budget)
So USDA turns them down for a loan?
Would you give a loan to business that has NEVER made a profit??? Isn't that why we got into the mortgage mess-government forcing banks to give loans to people who had 450 credit score??????
Over $4 million of that lawsuit was for "projected lost income" as a result of denial of USDA loan.
So HOW can a farm that has never made a profit and is dependent upon GRANTS to even get started loss that which it never had????
dang it..this just does NOT make economic sense in the real world.
Do you wear a hood burns1?
What is your point.?
Where does your point carry forward the good of America? Don't you feel dumb!
Don't you people tire of crap day in day out?????
Buffoon badges. LOL. Were it not for the adults on here, I probably would be wondering if I was even on the same planet on which I was born. I think I'm starting to get a sense of what Alzheimer's is like.
"But at every turn it looks bad, the MSM have completly co-opt this and are using it to their advantage."
Wow, really? The MSM is completely bankrupt, and they are allied with Sharrod – a loony racist. I don't think that's negative actually. AB and Big Gov are just out there fighting the good fight – sure the loonies in the MSM are going to try to spin it – but they're spitting into a headwind and it's hittin' em in the face right now.
Buddy, did these farmers actually plant and harvest a crop? Did they at least "look" like they made an effort? Juging from what I see, it looks like a shake down scam from start to finish and actually do the hard work of the farming was not an issue because that wasn't the aim of "New Comminities".
You know ALOT about this I'd be interested what you think. I've reading your other posts here.
I'm thinking you said something similar to Patriot2Opine today. I have duly noted your infidelity and you will pay–no more hanging of Blacks, priests, or children for you.
This isnt defamation, the event happened years ago and was obtained as any journalist would obtain a story. He didnt make the tape. My undertsanding is the whole tape is damning not just the segment Brietbart played. If it goes to court, Sherod will lose…. as the tape was factual and Breitbart didnt engineer it. She did in fact say those things and cant deny.
This harangue is about creating cover for the administration to distract the public from the fact they were going fire her without a hearing. Isnt that racist.
From what I have read, some of the farmers "intended" on starting a farm but were denied loans.
Also in reading some FSA info-the Pigford claimants have first dibs on auction equipment-right up until 24 hours before the auction is open to the public-the first dibs include real estate and equipment.
The language used in that FSA ruling was quite peculiar to me.
It read "beginning and socially disadvantaged" and specifically mentioned Pigford claimants.
So how in the heck can one be a beginning farmer and also been a Pigford claimant-see my issue there?
Slaves again? The blacks still are slaves – of the democraps and their black and white massas, from the NAACP to Jesse Hijackson and Al Dullton, IrReverend Wrong, Obama, Kennedy and the rest of them.
Blacks love slavery because they keep voting in the same massas year after year. The few blacks that escape slavery are considered "Uncle Toms" because they are free and off the plantation.
When someone like Breitbart points out that the blacks ARE SLAVES, both the slaves and their massas get angry because the Truth hurts them, like light scares away cockroaches.
The Truth is that most blacks in the US are already slaves and they love it. They are shackled to each other and to their ghettos and to government handouts. They hate freedom.
said by SuperSpeech: "I'm a white voter who is getting sick of being called a closet racist."
Face it, when Liberal-Democrats, NAACP, and Sherrod types call someone a Racist; it means they got nothing left to say. Playing "Race Card" has become the last desperate attack vector of pathetic losers.
Speaking of truth, SFBs, oops i mean wizeup, do you care to pontificate upon HR4899-defense appropriations bill that was denied cloture today in the senate and said addition to HR 4899 of $1.15 Billion to be allocated to Pigford II claimants????
In your earnest wisdom would you classify this as a defense bill or a farming bill or a social justice bill?????
I'll let you wipe the cheetoes you spit all over your screen before you answer my question, wise one.
And what do Republican Fubars have to do with anything in this argument? Sorry to destroy your straw man, but the topic is Shirley Sherrod's comments that Republicans are vicious because the president is black, rather than because his POLICIES are destructive to individual liberty, our economy and our constitutional framework.
I'm out. I'm a white guy that respects Democrats less and less because of their political tendency to categorize people who don't dislike their goals, as racist. And according to the Journolist this is a planned maneuver. Knowing it's false makes it 1000% worse.
If the Tea Party stands for Smaller government and Bigger individuals, then I'm a Tea Partier. I've never been to a Tea Party. I will probably never go to one, but now thanks to the race card throwers, I'm one of them. I'm one of them to show my solidarity for the underdogs. Most Tea Partiers are white people, we were born white, we can't help it, we're not racist. I'm guilty of being white. I also hate racism. I will demand left wing bomb throwers to stop calling me a racist in November when I get inside the ballot box. This sucks because a lot of my views are independent and by any definition, not Republican. I like more choice in elections. But my vote this year will be one of protest because you called me a racist or insist that I tolerate racism. Now reap what you sow NAACP and Obama white house.
What's really sad in all this is that with all the talk being about "who was racist and when", the bigger issue of what she says she realized is lost in the shuffle. Instead of it being about race, she spouts the Marxist theme of it being the have's vs the have not's. No, I'm not saying she's a card carrying marxist, but come on. How many super-leftist, class warfare, and now apparently race baiting people do we have to find during this administration before the general public begins to wonder just where all this hope and change is going to lead?
So what are your thoughts on HR4899 and the $1.15 Billion going out on the Pigford II suit.
betcha Shirley has a vested interest in that one.
Go ahead and play the race card–oops I mean victim card on me, wise one.
you go ahead and tell me this is not about money and I will wipe the cheetoes you spit on your screen up for ya'. Oh and you also have to prove to me this is not about money.
I am having a hard time crying for the victim card Sherrod since she is a flippin' millionaire at US taxpayers expense.
Hey did you know Sherrod started her farm with a grant???????Can you fill me in on what , if anything , this professional victim has earned????
No????
In case you don't know what it is—key word being work.
earn 1 (ûrn)
tr.v. earned, earn·ing, earns
1. To gain especially for the performance of service, labor, or work: earned money by mowing lawns.
2. To acquire or deserve as a result of effort or action: She earned a reputation as a hard worker.
3. To yield as return or profit: a savings account that earns interest on deposited funds.
Idiom:
earn (one's) spurs/stripes
To gain a position through hard work and the accumulation of experience, often in the face of difficulties
I'm afraid you're projecting on this one (assuming you're on the left). Those on the right aren't the one's saying that people/groups/news channel's who have opposing views should be shut down. You certainly have a right to say what you want, just as we have a right to pass on reading your posts if we feel like it, which I'll admit I didn't do this go round.
Well, this stuff has been going on since before Obama. Over $600 MILLION had been paid out as of June 2003.
Just saying maybe stuff happens for a reason-yes we have to pay attention-hopefully we are not too late.
wizeup - July 23rd, 2010 at 9:42 pm
redistribution as in give all our tax money to the banks when they lose what they have? That's yer socialism…socializing the losses, but keep those gains private no matter where they are from…even the government right? oh wait, the bank bailout wasn't redistribution…we would have all collapsed without using all our $$ to keep those robber barons going, we NEED them remember? Or it will all collapse….right. what a scam. THAT"S a scam..this is bs.
Yes – censorship for anything that doesn't fit your little vision (nightmare?) of the world.
paulbhm - July 23rd, 2010 at 9:44 pm
What "evidence"? You have provided none. When you watch the entire original video, she does say that she changed her mind on it being about black and white (except when she says "well, it is about black and white, but…" She later goes on to use the phrase "I took him to 'one of his own". If the skin colors were reversed and a white person used that phrase referring to a black person there would be no argument over whether it was a racist statement. It appears that it is you who come across as hateful and ignorant. Just as a side note, it wasn't the right that ruined the reputation of the word "liberal".
I'm not one who says anyone should be shut down..especially this site. If it can afford to keep paying for the servers, it has a right to exist & say whatever, just as I have a right to do same.
wizeup - July 23rd, 2010 at 9:55 pm
I will gladly do so….I think we should be focusing our money here on Americans, not on war anywhere else@ this point. Our freedom is strong and we are not being truly threatened by a small group of extremist muslims that supposedly number in the hundreds. We should get out o0f everyone else's business and mind our own shop. we got big enough problems here. So, NO MONEY FOR WAR. Keep a strong military, but we spend way more money than we have on that crap alone….howzzat?
Not familiar enough w/the details of the pigford bill to comment one way or the other. unlike most here (& there) I will admit when I don't know something especially without any verifiable facts and not act like I do….
"Typical liberal KKK RACIST LIAR. " wtf izzat? I can't even imagine what one would look like. Makes sense to u I guess…never seen a liberal KKK member.
"we are not truly threatened by a small group of extremest Muslims that supposedly number in the hundreds". I would say you are right, we're not threatened by a small group of hundreds. We are threatened by a large group of likely tens of thousands. Those of the Muslim faith number around the Billion mark, so even if a mere 1% were to be extremists it would be 10 million. We can only hope there aren't quite that many. Pretending that the threat doesn't exist because they seem ignorant or ineffective (the last couple of bombing attempts didn't work out) or because there aren't many of them is foolish. It only took 19 of them, at least in final execution of the plan, to carry out an attack that killed nearly 3000 people. Even if that event took just 100 people to fund it, plan it, and execute it, that is incredibly dangerous. Should we open up fronts all over the globe and be fighting in the streets everywhere? No I think we could agree there. However, we can't simply act as if this is the 16th and 17th century and think that being separated from them by an ocean is going to protect us.
Big Government – you’re a total joke! Once again, you doctor/edit your investigating reporting truth on the floor. What’s amazing is that your outfit paparazzi tactics are becoming so old and apparent, Riley had to apologize for biting- Its even better is WHEN Fox and RILEY have to swallowed BS in delivering your paparazzi crap, as though you have some sort of credibility, you cheat sooo BAD. If Fox was smart , they would put a 100 foot pole between Big Government and them It gives me great pleasure to tell you, your investigative reporting is none better than chasing down a celebrity like Bart Simpson, and gain nothing in delivering your so called truth- YOU CHEAT and your colleagues O’Keefe, Giles and Breitbart have no real LEG WORK journalism behind them nor does Big Government offer any substance to the American people .
You take all the news and post it to your web site, as though your site has the latest and greatest, false credit. Not impressed.
Actually a Republican
GOP will lose because of your terrorism and overall meanness . What a JOKE!
SUE BABY SUE!!!! What ever happen to the real debate?
We all need to take control of our government these leftist racist have gotten away with stealing money for way too long and then saying we want them to be slaves again. Maybe deep down they want to be slaves again since this is all they talk about day in and day out. She makes a racist statement, Bobo in the White House jumps the gun like he did with the Cambridge cops. I wonder if Andrew will be going to a beer summit. Keep exposing these leftist mad dog malcontents that are fueled by their own hated of white America. You thinks she will give the 13 million back to society?
wizeup - July 23rd, 2010 at 10:22 pm
fear will get you nowhere. stand up like a man & face it. and you don't need a whole army to do so. Just hire some more mercenaries, I mean contractors, to do it. I don't fear muslims, only extremists, no matter what race, religion or political party.
You're right, you didn't. I should have used a different pronoun there. The left in general seems to respond this way however. For example, Mrs Sherrod herself was asked if foxnews and this website should be shutdown, her response was "That would be a great thing. Because I don’t see how that advances us in this country." Later she moves from wanting them shut down to an accusation that conservatives in general want society to be such that blacks are considered inferior again or, taken to an extreme, re-enslaved (she didn't define exactly what she meant so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she doesn't think we want to be slave owners) I know that she is not some final authority on the left, but her comment seems to be more the rule that the exception as it pertains to how those on the left respond to opposing views. You, at least by your repeated posts, seem to be one of those exceptions.
Where exactly in my post did I seem to show that I'm fearful? I simply stated that there are more extremists than you seem to think there are, and that it doesn't take very many to begin with to cause plenty of damage. I do find it interesting that you say "stand up like a man & face it" referring to my supposed fear and then turn and say that you yourself "fear" extremists. I don't particularly care about your opinion of my manhood, you don't know me from Adam. However, there aren't a large number of conservative, liberal, or hindu "extremists" showing up on the news on a daily basis having blown themselves up in a market or restaurant, so the "all extremists are the same" argument only goes so far. By the way, I personally don't have any mercs or contractors on staff, but making veiled references to the leftist boogymen of Halliburton or Blackwater does little to prove your point.
Hey Wizeup: Defamation? The only way that can be proven is if Breitbart willingly doctored the tape. However, Breitbart definitely has a defamation case against the media whore Sherrod. Oh, now she wants this site shut down too? Fox Too? Who does this nobody think she is? If defamation was any reason to shut down a site, then MSNBC, CNN, ABC, politico, and the Huffington Post, NY Times and Washington Post would have been shut down years ago.
lol @ this site and Barfbart getting the full hatred of this country and the media. Lol look at all of you…cosigning each other and defending the moron who put out a HEAVILY edited tape. This wasn't the first time he did it either. lol who in the mainstream is even agreeing with any of you? You look like complete fools…agreeing with other fools. Congrats on being exposed as racist idiots. Maybe you all can cosign each other on how much you hate what I am saying lol!
Is it true that Andrew Breitbart was in the audience during her speech, and shouted the "N"word at her 15 times and spat on John L. Lewis who was sitting in front of Andrew?
Thanks for that and an actual discussion point without name calling, which I can do with the best of them, but much prefer to engage in actual debating of the issues. I can understand some of the feelings expressed here but my feeling in general about the right is just the same in many of them wanting to suppress the news & commentary they don't like or want to hear. It should all be out there on the table…we just have to weed out the bs to get to some serious discussion.
wizeup - July 23rd, 2010 at 11:48 pm
good one….not me, but that is definitely one…could not imagine what it looked like, but you got me on that one!
ps- if you read some of the other posts you'd see I am absolutely not for censorship of any kind. free speech for all all the time…tune out if you don't like it, pay up if you lose in court, but I'm not for shutting down or censoring anything/one.
lololol-must be I am onto something here, 'cause SFBs is calling it BS.
Hey, so what about HR4899-you ever said how you would classify it-defense appropriations or farming bill????
Really, cheetoboy, 'robber barons' is so passe…can't you come up with something better than that. And WTF does the bank bailout have to do with Sherrod? I do not support the flippin' bank bail-out, SFBs. AND i will gently remind you that your social justices asshats got federal regulations that forced banks to loan to the "socially disadvantaged" with credit scores of 450-yeah I read all about it on Wade Rathke's blog, bozoboy,
Rathke was bragging….Rathke and his thugs went into Washington Mutual board meeting and took the joint over. SO WAMU caved and gave more bad loans so Rathke and his ACORN zombies wouldn't burn the joint down. wade did have to give in because he wanted WAMU to loan out to "socially disadvantaged" with credit score of 400.
in case you missed it WAMU went belly-up.
I always got a kick out of Wade Rathke's blog, as I especially enjoyed the entry titled "Dreams of Fidel".
Don't even get me started on the crap those fatcats Dodd and Frank pushed through under the guise of "financial reform" FOR THE "SOCIALLY AND HISTORICALLY DISADVANTAGED". And Rangle, you brought up banking-so i am going to throw Rangle out there to you. rent protected bastard who doesn't claim his income from his offshore vacation homes. Oh and Franklin Raines, his little new non-profit is raking it in, flush with "green zone" urban grants for the "socially disadvantaged" regarding putting in solar panels in homeless shelters in conjunction with BP (you know BP the guys that killed the Gulf-they get tax breaks for working with raines)-Remember Franklin Raines-yeah he's the dude that got the BIG fat fannie mae paycheck.–so how much is fannie Mae worth now??? last I heard $500K.
And do not even get me started on solar panels-SOLYNDRA-Obama's pet project.
Biden announced the $535 Million Government stimulus "green" loan to Solyndra-Obama talked it up all over the WH Rose garden-obama made a speech at Solyndra Freemont, CA, factory-of course, all the UNION workers were given Obama speech day off WITHOUT PAY!!!!!!
why do i mention Solyndra, cheetoboy??????
BECAUSE the dude that sits on the board of Solyndra is also the very same same dude that is a lobbyist for Capital Ventures, INC, K street LOBBYISTS AND that very same dude that is a lobbyist and sits on the board of Solyndra.
is also………………………………………….
…………………………………..The SOLAR PANEL EXPERT FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY.
conflict of interest????????
BTW-Solyndra's solar cylinders are ONLY 10% energy efficient and the company is going belly up losing money hand over fist. they will default on their Stimulus loan of $535 MILLION. I suggest you look it up before you dispute me, wise one.
So whose the scam?????
Contact me went you wish to debate the East Anglia e-mails. I'm here , huckleberry.

Ok! That's good. Letting some people keep talking usually exposes their ignorance both on the right and left. You got some spunk and do a pretty good job sticking up, for youself – so peace.
Seriously that HAS to be a photoshoped pix of Byrd. I found it in Google pix but Byrd would NEVER let himself be photographed in a Klan robe.
As a younger and middle aged man Byrd was an active Klansman and then repudiated it later in life when it was clear that it was a political liability. I think a guy born 1908 or whatever keeps his views for life, but I don't know his heart despite the fact that I pounded him all the time for his Klan past.
Jamesb - July 24th, 2010 at 12:21 am
Historically the Klan and Democrat Party were not just aligned but the Klan grew out of Democrat Party activists to intimidate black voters and white people and people like ME, mixed ethnics/ Catholics and Jews and such.
My argument is that the modern Democrat Party perpetuates the horrible conditions and hopelessness you see in most inner citied by feeding the monster raw momey which is converted into to drugs and alcohol and the cycle continues.
If you try to cut it back like Clinton did do in the 90's people scream dicrimination. It's a terrible cycle that must be broken.
And behind door number three we got a social justice payout of $13 MILLION DOLLARS.
Shirley Sherrod , come on down!!!!!!!!
And with your rather large bank statement, we also offer you a host of other social justice awards for your celebrated victimhood!!!!!! Over here on the table we have a fully financed masters degree-yeah free education!!!!!!
And we are also going to give you a CDC grant, compliments of the OEO and USDA, free money for you ,Shirley, because you wear your victimhood soooooo well!!!!!
And a job, since you were so successful suing the USDA, we are going to give you a job as a liason with the USDA so you can teach all the other "socially disadvantaged" Pigford claimants how you went Track B on the lawsuit and there is never a need to settle for a pittance of $62,500-why do that when you can rake in MILLIONS!!!!!!!!
And there's MORE-Shirley, you will get first dibs on all auction real estate and farm equipment, yes, Shirley, it can all be yours for pennies on the dollar!!!!!
What more, yes, Shirley, we are feeling generous today, the USDA is going to pay your income tax to the IRS!!!!!! yes the USDA will pay your income tax liabilities on your $13 million lawsuit against the USDA.
And your attorney the USDA will pay for your attorney.
And no matter what your credit score is or no matter how much you ask for in a USDA loan, Shirley, we will be there for you!!!!!!! All future USDA loans to you are hereby approved!!!!!!!!
Congratulations, Shirley, you are now a professional victim!!!!!!!
What's that, Shirley?
You still want an apology, sorry you will have to go to the balless wonder Bill O'reilly for that one.
Fair enough, I respect your opinion on this one and I disagree.
I do agree with you one the point that we spend more money than we have and that needs to stop post haste.
I appreciate you candor regarding Pigford, it is another adventure in unnecessary pork that we cannot afford.
Will discuss the Islamic issue later as I am all pooped out from previous ranting. I have tons of research on that little diity.
I would still like to know what Breitbart supposedly did wrong. Was it that he didn't show the whole 15 minute speech? Do we really have to post and view whole speeches now so quasi journolists who want to demonize people like Breitbart can't mischaracterize him? I have heard many people say that he misrepresented her view. I would agree if he had left out her personal revelation that it wasn't about black or white, that it was about rich vs poor. But he didn't he represented her views in the abbreviated tape as closely as one could. In some ways some of trhe incendiary comments that were left out could be interpreted as more hateful and damning than the confession about initially not helping the white farmer. Can someone explain what exactly he did wrong other than pay the price for the NAACP and Obama jumping the gun? This is an honest request for anyone who thinks Breitbart did something wrong. Could you please clarify your indignation?
So, tell me, wise one, what's up with your obsession with race?
lol-one of our best buds in tea party is an American of Hispanic descent-lol-so put that in you cheeto bag-lol.
I just figure he is a pretty awesome American as the guy served in the military and worked his butt of raising his kids.
I am at a loss of why those of the left ilk have to classify folks according to race?
it really does escape me.
In the long run, truth will win out as long as Breitbart doesn't tuck in his tail and run. This incident can be used to learn and as a springboard. We know the old press is skewed. It's one sided response is just another example that will come back to bite them, maybe sooner than later if this woman's 15 minutes of fame turns into a full blown race discussion that will undoubtedly expose government corruption in lawsuit settlements and more hateful remarks by the NAACP. I would love to know the whole story on her father's death. Was that the turning point that propelled her hate? Was it endemic in her community? Eric Holder called us cowards for not discussing race. He is right about that but I think he might be surprised that it won't be a one sided discussion. Our country can't afford the continued racism that so freely flows from this woman's lips or other race baiters like the NAACP or the journolists any more than racism from the kkk.
Sherrod asks what Breitbart has done to bring the races together. Exposing racism within the NAACP is every bit as important as exposing racism within the kkk. We will never overcome the raical divide as long as groups that call anyone who opposes their agenda races are allowed to go unchallenged.
When James Byrd was dragged to his death by white racists it hurt this nation badly. What if that incident never happened? What if it had just been a rumor? would the hurt that was caused by the rumor be any less hurtful to the nation than if the incident happened? Would the rumor monger be any less guilty of creating the hurt than the actual mmurderer? The NAACP can't leave false rumors and false innuendo hanging in the air with unchallenged impunity. The damage they do is as harmful as the damage done by real racism.
Hillary supporters were called racists. McCain supporters were called racists. Now the tea party is being called racist. Can annyone name a single source from the old media who are challenging these hurtful and largely unfounded assumptions? It is a tragedy to this nation to see the continuing destruction far more damaging than any actual racism at this point in America's history.
They are slaves but today their masters are democrats not white land owners. They will remain enslaved as long as they believe the garbage coming from the left.

The truth is a defense to slander and defamation. The video speaks for itself.
Speaking "reason" to Shirley is like trying to teach a orangutan quantum physics.

¿íPorque molesta sexualmente a los cachorros? ¿Qué haces con sus cuerpos cuando ha acabado con ellos? Todos los además saben que odia a negros y ama a los cachorros. Por favor no eches no mas la culpa, a los sacerdotes, los molestaciones sexuales. ¿Por que tal odio?

That would be vampires. Easy mistake for you to make, your being a vamp tramp. All that multi-tasking can wear a girl out what with being a one-girl lynch mob & pedophile. I do wish you'd quit blaming the priests for your pedophilic transgressions, though.
Projection, redirection, labeling, etc.–woman up! Take responsibility for your disease-spreading ways.
I saw you got deleted by the administrator earlier. 'Found out they were Black and tried to hang them, didn't you? Don't get so upset–I'm sure you can sell those mirrors at HuffPoison of GeorgeSorryAss.com. You know the one with the Hitler overlay replete with his pecker-duster moustache.
Better get rid of the child porn on your hard drive, though–your NAZI buddies are cracking down on "your kind." Oh, look, I just used "hard" and "crack (ing)" in the same conversation I'm trying to have with someone everyone knows is a convicted pedophile. Subliminal innuendo sure comes easy when you know you're dealing with one of Chester's Children.
You'll love your home team, then. Can we expect you to go back soon or are you learning how to really stick a thumb in the eye here?
Kevin Stowell - July 24th, 2010 at 4:06 am
I think you meant top say "ladder." Don't you use those in your rendezvous with the youngsters? I doubt that they can "reach" you without one.
But then, you got "Ya wohl" wrong earlier, which is kind of surprising, given your NAZI predisposition to hangin out at the "boy-toy'" clubs. Bad enough to be a negrophobic, pedophilic, NAZI but not to have a basic command of your own language is unforgivable.
You still haven't answered my question about how many notches you on your noose.
Kevin Stowell - July 24th, 2010 at 4:20 am
Corporations don't really pay taxes, you're right, they just pass the taxes on to you in the form of higher prices. Screw 'em (yourself), screw 'em (yourself) good! HuffPoseur Economics 001. Being stupid is hhaarrrrddd!
All that lynching of Blacks seems to have clouded your (mis) understanding of the basics of Economics. Maybe a fling with a cachorro, or a Muslim Dancing Boy will clear what's left of your mind. Lynching Blacks is hhaaarrrrdddd! Getting it on with Muslim dancing boys is ffuuunnnn! (Mike Myers voice) Do they make you horny? Do they?

What "liberties" have you taken with liver? My God, hepatophilia–is there no end to your talents?! Must be, you're wasting you're time reading and responding to this drivel.
Maybe you just didn't "finesse" it enough. Liver-sex is like any other–ya gotta be a "principled" lover to get any "interest" in return. Invest and it shall return. It's a banking thang. Quit being a selfish "minuteman."
Here we go……We are all "racists" now for not wanting a progressive / Marxists agenda…. I would be interested in the percentage of people that were at this meeting that worked for the government….So what we are being told is that before Scherrod has this come to Jesus monument in her life, her work was done with "racists" bias..If that's the case I think we should look at what she has really done while working at the USDA …There may just well be discrimination suits against the USDA from people affected before her come to jesus moment…And I would also suggest audits of this USDA office back the twenty four years …Something is starting to stink here….I think there been as usual a "LOT" of tax payer money thrown around here …..
rfpzzzzz - July 24th, 2010 at 4:39 am
At first I thought she did a racist act by half stepping the white farmer although her redemptive thing came across. As all the hoopla broke and I watched the "whole" video the NAACP put out (there is an edit or something right around he discussion of the white farmer), I thought she had kind of a nice , southern , black manner about her. She seemed pretty smart , attractive and funny although absolutely obsessed with race and a bit too fond of government jobs and money.
Then her interviews started popping up and I am seeing the familiar anger of the race baiter. In a way she reminds me of Obama. When I first saw him , his smile seemed much more attractive than a rerun of the Clinton era but after he got in his anger started to show. He seems to show a seething side when someone gets in his way.
I am sorry Shirley, the more I see of you the more bitter you appear. I understand all this media stuff might do that to you but Breitbart doesn't want you picking cotton with a chain around your ankle. That is crazy talk. Frankly I can't imagine you being on anyone's wish list if , God forbid,slavery were to make a comeback.
I know Shirley didn't intend to become national fodder and God knows I would not handle it well but Shirley, you and the NAACP and the Dems really need to stop calling people the R-word without real proof. To many of us it is just as insulting as being called the N-word. You do not get a free pass and a lot of people are sick of all the lying and ,frankly, the whining. Absolutely no one want slavery back in this country. We are still paying for the last round and my family came here after it was over. The "cry racist" shtick is boring. I think they are getting that Rev Wright room ready at the hideout.
I liked it! "Brainless twit" has a air of honesty about it…
Kevin Stowell - July 24th, 2010 at 5:24 am
You don't have right to be wrong about everything, though. That's a sin called lying. Because it is a sin, by definition, it is also antisocial. Understanding the basic tenets of civilty aren't within the intellectual purview of Darwidiots, is it?
Why don't you like your fellow human beings? Do you have the same sentiment about Blacks? Never mind, I think we've covered that. Oh, well, nothin' noose under the Sun, huh?
Kevin Stowell - July 24th, 2010 at 5:29 am
Quit yer carp-in , then, ya' little bass-turd. Perch on this. You're rotten to the albacore. Oh my God, stop me before I pun again! Got ya "hooked", don't I? Reeled you in like I own you. You're gonna vote for newt if he runs, I assume. What was the name of that electrifying band years ago, Eely Dan? Have you had it up to the gills yet? Find a different pond, scum. Ha ha ha.
The poor blacks and whites are already slaves to the government with no way out. Welfare checks, poor education and blame the sucessful Americans have made a permanent underclass who listens every election to the promise of "we will improve your life' only to have no change and to be more dependent on the government massa. The slavery perpetuated by the liberal progressive communists is destroying lives for votes. The hysterical racism label is a tool of the regime to try and quiet the opposition and strenghthen the "slave' vote. Poor uneducated Americans who are presumed to be slaves to the Obama regime wake up and overcome the hole your government has put you in. I HAVE A DREAM
Memo to Sh#tty Shirley-Andy still has 100k on the table for anyone to prove the Tea Party folks in DC were calling your fellow racists racial slurs. Maybe you might try for it. I need a good laugh.
Hey Wize-Im proud to be a racist-against the likes of Sh#tty Shirley, Malik the Shabby azzhole, Jealous Ben, Dumbama, Maliks little pooches at the NPB like Qanal X La raza, Meecha. I dont min d being referred to as a racist against them. They give me good reason to dislike them. So do you.
Well, if you dont fear muslims, I suggest you try Saudi Arabia, Iran, Or Pakistan as places of residence. Theyd love to behead an infidel.

Corporations are people, dumbdown–they're called stockholders. Instead of being terminally stupid and class-envious delusional, why don't you buy stock in and be a part of a corporation instead of an enemy to them? Maybe you and a couple hundred other Leftist trolls could pool your pesos and buy a share of Microsoft.
God, you self-anointed geniuses on the Left are stupid!
And your the guy who says you dont engage in name calling-you cant help youself there pinko. Just like your clown hero, Soros. Go try some butt sniffing exercises , unwise-you likley need them.
Tell me fool-would you be willing to hold the rest of the media accountable for there lies-like say, Dan Blather and the forged doucments? Of course you wont- You can return now to your day job of being Soros Lewinsky butt buddy , or the front door for backdoor Barne Frank.

If, or I should say when, Shirley files a law suit against AB — I wonder where she will file it?
I'm sure this admin wants to make an example of AB and will find a sympathetic judge.
You're right…I'm being insensitive. I should have said "primates," which would include homo sapiens. Gotta be as PC as possible, obvious references to "The Wizard of Oz" notwithstanding.
Sherrod is a sharade! Now the real truth comes out in her statements following the original video clip. She is a racist who wants anything and everything she can get by means of her color. Didn't she sue years ago, the government and get 13 million? Now she is going to suck the well dry over this. Just another progressive, liberal, crook.
I'm disgusted that FOX news won't allow Breitbart on their network. I'm not surprised the rest of the networks won't allow him but I expected more fron FOX.
You have to admit it fun every now and then. I have an account at the ol' huff and puff and a few others. That is where the fun is really at. Love to quietly roll into a conversation and get them fighting among themselves. That is funny stuff. They try it here often but are discovered almost immediately. What does that say for their self described higher intellect? Once in a blue moon, you can get a quality discussion with one of them. Not often though. They are usually just like this one, a box of rocks has more to offer in terms of quality discussion. LOL
If she sues the government and she should along with Bratfart she within her rights. But dont blame her, Blame Bratfart. He created this mess with his doctored video. He should get what he deserves.
They just can't handle the truth! Andrew warned them when all the uproar of ACORN was ongoing. He told the MSM, we have other tapes to reveal as we get closer to the election. I surmise they, MSM, thought he was referring to ACORN tapes. But wait! There is more to come. Lets count some recent non-ACORN related tapes, The voter intimidation tapes from PA showing members of the "NewBlackPanthers" in action. The beat-down of a "Black Conservative" by Union members in StLouis. The punches thrown by a Black activist at a man peacefully demonstrating, we are still awaiting criminal action agains both perpitrators of those incidents. The more being revealed about this latest dust-up the worse it becomes for the usual suspects. Thankfully they are real slow learners.
I tried to avoid this race crap–stale, overblown, and fauxny. I thought I'd let the inner comediprick out yesterday. Don't like having to shower that much. I think dumbdown wants to have my baby, though.
Blacks are already slaves……to the Democratic Party. Who feeds them? Houses them? Gives them free medical care? Gives them money for their drugs and booze? Democrats. All for a vote.
Poor rocks. Well, P2O, you hit on a point I like to make all the time. They have deluded themselves into believing that, by identifying with the "smart set", THEY, through that association, are themselves smart. They're too dumb to understand that someone's being in power or in a position of authority, does not mean that they are smart–especially when you look at the chicanery the DemoTards always have to engage in to get hired.
Our poiitcal system has a history of schizophrenia. It has, generally, always been a situation in which the DemoCretins screw crap up, especially the economy, until the people can't take it anymore and then the RepubliCretins get hired to fix at least the economy. The Demmunists invariable win the propaganda war as to which party repaired the damage that was usually their creation. Ignorance is expensive and about to get far more costly.
Obviously she is either lying or an accomplice in an attempt to trick AB. The ONLY way AB can be guilty of wrongdoing is if he was sent the full tape and edited it himself. It would be easy to prove that he was set up either by producing the original tape or CD he was given/sent, or by showing the email received with the attachment downloaded from the server back in March. Either way, if he was working from a sources edited tape and had no other knowledge, it's obviously a set-up to attempt to smear him as racist. That MSNBC, NBC and CNN have all carried the AB is a Racist mantra lends me to believe they might have stooped so low as to be in on it or at least in a media dog-eat-dog world, complicit with the lie (which doesn't surprise me). The fact that the unedited tape appeared literally hours after the damage was done tells me the entire affair was staged. It's clearly a Bill Ayres type of ploy. This woman is no victim. I think the plan was to get Glenn Beck to bite and he didn't, yet she and the NAACP have gone forward with the lie that FOX NEWS lead this story. It's an obvious set-up.
You are obviously NOT a lawyer. In fact, your vindictive comment appears rather irrational. Sued or not, she has no case because the presentation of evidence to him nearly 4 months prior was ignored. He only had an edited tape, something easily proven in the EDP sense and so his final report to the public was based on information edited by the source. In a trial, the source will be exposed and we'll find out who really did dupe AB. In the meantime, she made public statements and news editors often mislead or take things out of context purposefully, and yet they are rarely ever found guilty of anything even when it is done intentionally – which was not the case here. I would love to be the Lawyer sitting in COURT defending AB with you on the other side and your petty little emotionally charged lies to defeat. Wizeup – you are a tool perhaps no brain-trust, that is obvious.
The excerpt wasn't altered, wasn't falsified, and it certainly wasn't repaired. It was an excerpt — meaning, part of the whole thing. If I quote from a book, I haven't "doctored" the book. I have taken an excerpt from it.
Either you are a victim of government-run, public education, or else you purposely created your own spin right here. Would it be wrong to hope that you get what you deserve?
I'm 67 YO conservative white guy with rainbow family.
I have a [legal] Mexican daughter in law who gave me 4 brown grandsons. I also have a black son in law who has given me 2 beautiful peach colored grand daughters. I love my grand kids more than life it self.
That said I'm tired of the jacksons, sharptons, wrights, farakhans and now SHERRODS. These people are nothing more than big mouthed, racist poverty pimps who work for the real slave masters, the democrat party.
Until the black community disowns and shuts these big mouth bigots up we will never attain Rev. Kings dream.
I do think Breitbart should man up and apologize for publishing only the inflammatory part of Sherrods speech.
He does great work. He does not need to stoop to the democrat way of doing things.
I am only bigoted against one thing….bigots! you say I hate the usa….not me. I am proud to live in a country where I can speak my mind…even to j-offs like you. I am just as much a patriot as any other citizen. You saying otherwise don't mean s&*%.
the pedophile thing is so old and stale already…& doesn't even work, so you can stop obsessing & stay away from those kids. the way you talk I would never let you near one and hope you don't have any…if so, too bad for the kid.
You clearly are no lawyer. In the first place, the media edit people's stories all the time, something AB DIDN'T do. If it were possible to sue for defamation over that, their would be no news media at all. How the hell do you think rags like the National Enquirer survive suits filed weekly? The fact is, you are passionately upset about something you have no knowledge of. Worse yet, your level of education is so poor, you don't even realize how foolish your claim is. Hoping you have at least an 8th grade intellect, let me explain why she has no case against AB. (1) Context of the Source is critical. (2) AB didn't even consider airing the clip for four months. (3) The original source can be learned through modern back-door technology that allows the provider to be traced so the source will become known in a civil defense case. (4) The source will be grilled on the stand as to why he/she did not provide a complete tape (was there a nefarious motive). (5) If the source was from within the NAACP (and most people with better than 8th grade educations think it was) then the question becomes one of why did the NAACP send an obviously misleading tape to AB in the first place. (5) The damage was done in any event by the plaintiff's own mouth. The question as to her motives and full context are relevant and if the NAACP purposely mislead AB then the fault will lie without, not on him. (6) Any rational investigator is going to look at the chronology (that's time line for you) and realize that this was an attempt to set up the defendant (AB) and perhaps even others (principally Fox News). But Fox News didn't bite and never even aired the story until after the White House had ordered the woman fired. (7) Only an insane or idiot lawyer would file a suit against AB on this one because discovery is a bitch. Every moment of the woman's life will come out and if she has made other racist comments over the years, if she has had disciplinary reports filed against her held by her employer (the US Government), if she has been involved in these sorts of things before, it will all come out in the open. (8) She needs to worry far more than AB. If she was connected to the source of the tape, the duplicitous nature of the cause will be seen as part of a conspiracy to defraud which goes beyond a simple he said/she said time-line….and dude, that is where this may be headed. What SHE should be concerned about is that AB not hire private investigators to dig deeply into her connections to the original tape, the edited source, etc. SHE may end up the one found guilty of an attempt to slander AB and mislead the media. (9) She may simply be a victim of some nefarious plot by others intending to take down an AB or a GB or someone like that, but in the end, she is no victim of slander on the part of AB. He didn't edit or produce the tape. SHE (not AB) was the ultimate original source of the words with or without context that led to the inappropriate actions of the White House and the big egg smeared all over the President's face.
Breitbart was clearly wrong and defamed this ladys character. This lady had some black white issues in her past, but learned to heal and actually help a person of another color. People like Breitbart, Hannity, Sarah Palin, and Rush Limbaugh continually divide our country all the while laughing all the way to the bank

You don't think kicking clients to others because one doesn't want to deal with them because of their race is racist? Fair enough. Its racism from where I stand. Also, even that quote is misleading, because Mrs. Sherrod's dealing with the white farmer did not end there.
In the full speech Sherrod stated that when the farmer called and told her the lawyer wasn't helping him and that he was going to lose his farm, she stepped in once again and helped him save his farm (a point the farmer in question verified in interviews). Sherrod finished her story by stating that its about opportunity, not race and that God helped her move past the (racial) hatred that was once in her heart. http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/shirleys... http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/us/2010/07/20/sp...
So I'll say it again, Breitbart unfairly smeared her as a racist. Clearly some people disagree with me, but I don't think false accusations of racism are acceptable no matter who makes (I don't care if its the NAACP calling the Tea Party racist or Breitbart calling Sherrod racist).
A Setup? Ya Think? Duh! Like most Bill Ayers inspired plots however, it failed because:
1) FOX never aired anything until AFTER the WHITE HOUSE had acted stupidly (again), and
2) Regardless of the facts, the left-leaning band of brothers at CNN, NBC, MSNBC, CBS and ABC have ALL jumped on the FOX NEWS is guilty bandwagon, which is pretty clearly an attempt to smear FOX when in fact FOX was not involved and simply went with a breaking story as happens in every news room.
3) The ultimate source of information (who provided AB with the original edited clip) will come out and will be exposed. At that Ah Ha moment we'll all realize exactly what was attempted and why.
you are clearly not one either with those wacky comments. like I said…what you say doesn't matter one tiny bit…it's up to the courts, not even the lawyers or you can change that no matter what you say or think.

heh, heh, slam-dunk
(So that's why the left won't support corporations–they don't know what they really are or what they really do.)
Glenn Beck was the target and Andrew Brietbart was the supposed to be the trigger finger of–friendly fire that was supposed to take Beck and FOX news out– but Andrew missed the target because Glenn Beck saw it coming, as Andrew should have and may have ??– Glenn ducked and returned a devastating counter attack that took out Olinsky, the NAACP and the MSM all with one shot, Beck wisely took Ms Sherrod's side (and the left say's Beck is a clown and an idiot). Ms, Sherrod even attempted to set Beck up when she said; she was forced out because she was going to be on The Glenn Beck show—not in the way she anticipated though.
Here is very strong evidence, not proof, but given Olinsky tactics and the fact that they are being used daily in the MSM, NAACP and the side walks and halls of CONgress, this should come as no real stretch of the imagination either.
Union Community Responds to Glenn Beck⨠James Cone and Black Liberation Theology in the Spotlight
In a recent segment of his Fox news show, Glenn Beck took aim at Liberation Theology, especially that of Dr. James H. Cone, Union's Charles A. Briggs Distinguished Professor of Systematic Theology. Several Union students, faculty, alumni/ae and administrators have reacted to the program, in news articles, blog posts and even a YouTube video. Several are highlighted below.
I did some homework after I finally saw Ms Sherrod's speech; In her capacity of USDA recruiter for the giant corporate welfare arm of the USDA (USDA is nothing more than an arm of government corporate welfare–think ethanol as the number one example), to the NAACP in the light of Black Liberation Theology BLT (a Theology that appeared the NAACP audience members are familiar with)–pointed out to me in another thread, by poster BuddyTWD, where she almost had me converted due to the elitist verbiage she used–verbiage that I am very much in agreement with on the elitist points, because they are a Tea Party kind of stance, the difference is who the elitist actually are and the use of race as the means to take the elitist down and out–big government and big business alliance, but that is another thread altogether—back to the home work– and it was very refreshing and revealing, this bullet was meant for Glenn Beck and Breitbart was the friendly fire meant to take Beck out….
A little history on Ms Sheerod's husband Charles Sheerod a Theologian with a masters degree in something called sacred theology STM….this is where it gets good— The degree is from Union Theological Seminary and their website is full of attacks on Glenn Beck for his show on Black & White Liberation Theology's or just Liberation Theology in general…..check this out
It is often pointed out that Sherrod went to southwest Georgia and never left. After a brief sojourn in New York, where he received his master's degree in sacred theology from Union Theological Seminary http://www.utsnyc.edu/glennbeck in 1967, Sherrod returned to the Southwest Georgia Project for Community Education, where he served as director from 1961 to 1987. He also directed New Communities, Inc., a cooperative farming project, from 1969 to 1985. He served on the Albany City Commission from 1976 to 1990, and in 1996 ran unsuccessfully for Georgia State Senate. Sherrod currently works as a chaplain at the Georgia State Prison in Homerville, Georgia.

Old, stale, and whether or not it works is moot. The verity of it is the part to which I'm sure you object. Vienna sausage is not a circuitous allusion to the Vienna Boys Choir so you need to suppress your fantasies about them. I'm sure my exposing you for the bigot and pervert you obviously are, is not rendered ineffective by your fatigue with and unwilligness to defend against what you would like to have others think are baseless attacks. I.E. saying it doesn't actually make it so. So, hands off the kiddies, Vienna-Boy.
BTW, hands off the Blacks, too. Everybody knows about your siitin' on the crapper fingering your shoestring noose dreamin' about the Bull Connor/George Wallace days. The way you talk, I 'd never let you near a minority. I hear the Klan's looking for a new boy-toy–leavin' soon?
The fact that I have repeated these things frequently and conspicuously on the Big site, means that they are not baseless and, in fact, where dumbdown is concerned, are mostly likely true in spades.
(So that's why the left won't support corporations–they don't know what they really are or what they really do.) Likely truer than you might think. I'm discovering things with these 'Tards I'd 'bout rather not known.
I'm 'bout ready for that Holy Water bath. All that wailing and gnashing. Or is it the drooling and schooling that is so exhausting? Decided to try di_da's "badger" style. Ha ha.
i am not a democrat nor a republican! but Breitbart look like a slave owner. he is arrogant and ignorant. We really do not need this right now. if we really want A true contry we would leave that racist subject alone. Breitbart YOU ARE A FREAKING IDIOT THAT IS SEEKING FOR ATTENTION AND YOU ARE USING THIS CAUSE FOR YOUR PERSONAL GAIN! I AM A TEA PARTIER. ALL I WAN IS LOWER TAX AND SMALL GOVERNMENT. WE DO NOT NEED THE BLACK AND WHITE CONVERSATION.
"we just have to weed out the bs to get to some serious discussion." Like you'd recognize that. I expect disingenuousness from a racist pedophile, though. Lots to hide. If you were the least bit moral you would go back under your bridge and leave the adults alone but that's not in a Communist.
"just Media Matters/MSM/Democrat Plantation supplied talking points. " So you're too stupid to know a threat when you see one? Being in your fifties and still living with your parents'll do that to you–faux sense of security. Move out, woman up, quit discriminating against Blacks, and quit molesting children, Playground-Boy.
That would be, "Ja wohl." Get Hooked on Deutsch, Little Adolph. Hung any Blacks today? Or is it Jews you're hating today? Conspicuous silence is as good as an admission of guilt.
According to you then sawdustking, if because she is defending herself from that LIAR she is a whore, then Ru$h, Hanning, Beck, Those other jokers on FoxNews are Superwhores.
I have to agree with Ms. Sherrod. Breitbart is clearly opposed to President Obama. Can anyone honestly say or believe that that's not true? I think it's also fair to say that his defamation of Ms. Sherrod was racially motivated. The reason he posted the edited video in the first place was an attempt to respond to the characterization of the tea party as having racist elements. He's said himself that he wanted to show that the NAACP is a racist organization. This backfired spectacularly. What has Breitbart ever done to promote racial harmony?
… fish on! This is a 'handout queen' – poor vs. rich… Pigford is a clear example of when you handout free money because of the color of one skin, the freeloader will so up. Andy posted an except of a speech, she made very racist claims and the NACCP and Whitehouse (?) ( why are they so closely aligned btw ) jump into action…. This administration ( and the media that brought it to power ) demands the right to pick and choose what to cover and what is indeed racist. But… we continue to fuel their fire… this is a NON-ISSUE!!! and I for one, as of today will quit giving this handout queen and the racist circus around her and more brain cycles… Keep are heros safe… we are in a war for god sakes and if we gave our heros half as much god damn time in the news as this bottom feeder, we'd be better off
This woman is just the typical race-whore looking to make big bucks from her 15 minutes of fame.
Obama comes from a BLACK AFRICAN ARRAB TRIBE THAT KIDNAPPED AND SOLD AFRICANS INTO SLAVERY. What a bleeding joke it is for this idiots in America calling themselves "African-Americans" when they have never been, lived or have a clue about Africa! How pathetic to have something like 95% of blacks support what people Democrats/KKK Party – it was the Democrat Party that wouldn't allow them vote, it was they who belonged to the KKK. Idiots, it was a Republican President that fought a civil war to free the slaves, It was thousands and thousand of folks that fought in that war only to have some little pissant race whore come along with her ilk and attack America and the patriots that gave the bitch the freedom to do so. Like Africa so much? Great, leave now and live in a hut with no energy or sanitation.
BTW, since everything is about race and distractions from the disaster that the Democrat/Progressives have done to the country in the last four years since they took majority in both houses of congress and did everything possible to hurt American's for the sake of an election… Let's talk about race, Obama is 50% WHITE and 44% ARAB-AFRICAN.
Want to talk politics? He comes from five generations of COMMUNISTS!
Want to talk about agenda? Read the 'Weatherman manifesto" and know that the traitor and those around him don't represent America but are the front for the Jihad on America.
The most important defense to an action for defamation is "truth", which is an absolute defense to an action for defamation. This woman was and is a racist flame thrower that might have changed her mind about helping a farmer that wasn't one of her own and do her job but that doesn't change what she said, did and the vile things she is still saying.
Great point! Sherrod has attacked the former President and attacks Brieitbart using defamation while pretending to be a victim. Her own racist words and background make it clear that she is a racists. The only thing she has correct was that the NAACP is responsible for her being fired due to their lies and calling the Tea Party racists. It was the Obama regime and the NAACP responsible for her being fired. Brietbart posted a tape of her addressing the NAACP and showing all of us exactly what they are all about as the racist cheered at the racist remarks.
There, racists, racists, racists….I think we have all had enough of that word now that it means nothing. Guess it might be time to pull out the old "Rules for Radicals" and see what the next divisive plan might be. Let's see, I don't like the communist Obama agenda, I must be a racist. I don't like the half white president, not because he is half white but because he has damaged my country… I must be a racist.
sherrod is the first black racist to officially be elevated to the status of "Saint" by the JournoList Vast Left-Wing Media Conspiracy. The Messiah has is first Saint! Why it's just like the relationship between Jeremiah "GDA" Wright (The Vile, Racist Master) and hussein (The DIsciple).

There was nothing either "wacky" or out of the law sir. Slander and Liable must be intentional and clearly the AB case falls below that bar in so many ways. I have nothing against Ms. Sherrod. However I find it interesting that after she was informed that FOX had nothing to do with the story she continued her tirade against them. AB's comments were fairly clearly about reaction to Ms. Sherrod's words by members of the NAACP audience in response. Therefore, it seems the only foul done is by the White House and those race bating victim pimps whose sole purpose is to deflect failure from themselves and blame others. The COURT will decide the matter under the LAW and the LAW is clearly not on Ms. Sherrod's side which is why I doubt seriously she will file a case. But if she does, remember that discovery (that's a process for the intellectual midgets) is a two-edged sword and swings both ways in terms of what gets uncovered. I doubt given many of the words and some of the history of Ms. Sherrod that is coming to light that she will truly want to go down that path. Theoretically a court is color blind. People there are (Thanks to Dr. King) supposed to be judged with equal justice under the law. Any good judge is color blind and sees only the law.

Breitbart's wrongdoing stems in part from the slates he added to the edited tape, which stated that Ms. Sherrod conducted her duties at the USDA through a prism of race, followed immediately by the speech she gave at the NAACP dinner. His editing–specifically, the slates he added–was misleading in that it stated she did this at the USDA. As you know, her speech referred to the experience she had with the Spooners almost 30 years ago, when she did not work for the government. Another example of Breitbart's wrondoing is his mischaracterization of the audience's reaction. There is no clapping or cheering when she describes her experience. That's why most people are appalled by this. Breitbart's conduct has been shameful, and his refusal to apologize for what he did is dishonorable. Watch the entire tape and see for yourself, make up your own mind. Watch the edited version and read the slates for yourself.
When did Breitbart
tell Sherrod he wants Blacks to be Slaves again?
Maybe she is on that crack stuff….

One more thing Mr. Wizeup. When my two oldest children were in high school school, one third of the students attending were bussed in from a black section of the city. The guise was that every child should get a quality education. Yet when I would go over to their school on occasion, I noticed sadly that black kids were always standing around, in those days listening to boom boxes and smoking outside the grounds. One of the schools police officers (who was black) told me it disgusted him, that it was that way all the time, that they rarely went to class. At graduation for each of my daughters, there were approximately 800 students. Of those, two hundred received honors or high honors. Of those only two in each case were black, the rest were of other nationalities or white. This in a school that was attended 1/3rd by black students, young people who were neither encouraged by their families or who were so bogged down in drugs, gang violence and failure that they wouldn't even try. The two black kids in each class that excelled….middle class kids whose families lived in our neighborhood. Their parents were Republicans. My own black cousin attended HS in Los Angeles and was repeatedly beaten by other blacks because he was a straight A student. His black mother was a successful executive and his black grandfather was a licensed physician (MD). My cousin attended UCLA on an ROTC scholarship and graduated and is very successful today. His skin did not keep him from being successful. His attitude, hard work, lack of bitterness and his consistent perseverance made him successful. I come from a multi-racial family. Though I do not look at all Hispanic, I have lived in predominantly black areas of California where I have heard more racist slander against Whites and Latinos in everyday conversation than anywhere else in the country except Wisconsin. I know racism when I hear it buddy. It is ugly and it knows no specific color boundary nor does it infect only one people. You speak hateful and unforgiving things looking for vengeance for some perceived ill by others. One can only surmise that your are poor and a failure or so caught up in your hate you can't find the light of God within you. Either way, you are worthy of human pity and forgiveness, but tolerance of your hate is not coming from this corner and probably not a whole lot of other people responding to you either. We have no racism or prejudice in our family – there is no room for it being as we are Latino, French, African, Swedish, Jewish (even with relatives murdered at Buchenwald), Polish, Russian, Native American and English – we are proud MUTTS in our family and all of us pity you.
As I see things we have a my side vs. your side situation that can not win. Can we all agree that her father was murdered…reportedly by a white man…never convicted so the charge is still allegedly. That said…I am sure I can find at least 10 people in my region of the USA who have suffered the death of a loved one from the hands of a black man (not allegedy, actually convicted by a jury of his peers). How does that justify racism?
We the people have been snookerd into the my side vs your side…and that folks will be our demise. To quote Republican President A. Lincoln: "A house divided against itself cannot stand"…so I ask: "Will we stand or fall, are we all Americans and will we denounce racism from all citizens white and black or will we dissolve our Union along the boarders of color?"

The Tea Party's rallying cry is SMALLER GOVERNMENT which is code word for States Rights.
We know the Tea Party wants to gut the Civil Rights Amendment….. so put 2 and 2 together folks.
The Tea Party wants their country back all right. The Confederate States OF AMERICA!
This brain dead woman is a frickin IDIOT! She should be railing against the RACISM in the DOJ, White House, the Congressional Black Caucus and the NAACP! Breitbart did NOT fire her ignorant ass. The White House did!! There is no way the lame stream media can turn this HAG into Mother Theresa! Pfft. She's just a race-baiter like Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson and the fool who is head of the NAACP, Ben Jealous. What a bunch of goofballs!
Andy Breitbart has millions of supporters who will back him up all the way. The woman is a typical sue-happy, leftist LOSER. Leave her to her own stupid "Gimme" ideology. She will self destruct.
LouisD - July 24th, 2010 at 2:20 pm
One more thing brain trust – it cannot be up to any court unless a lawsuit is filed and while there is some pontificating about it, the reality is, she has no legal case so any filing will amount to shakedown and harassment. But opening that can of worms is dangerous because discovery cuts both ways and her involvement with the delivery of the edited and misleading video clip to Mr. Breitbart (intended or otherwise) is a possibility. In discovery, every possible motive she might have had in cooperating with others in a potential conspiracy to defraud comes out. Fraud by the way carries potential jail time and not just civil penalties so unless she is absolutely completely innocent of any connection to the original and unedited video clips, she might actually end up in jail. Her lawyer knows that and so if she has no connection to the original edited or full video clips, then she could file, but her case would still not result in a victory or judgment against Breitbart UNLESS he lied about the condition of the original video clip. A man who has the paragonahs (small town in Utah I like to use in place of plums) to offer $100k for any real evidence of racism at the Washington rally against Marxist health care, probably knows the legal side of things fairly well and isn't phased by the next step (if any).

If you watch her entire NAACP speech, she talks about her prejudice against the white farmer because of blacks selling their farms for dirt cheap (as if that's the white man's fault that someone would sell it for next to nothing). Because of what she perceives as unfair treatment to blacks in general, she didn't want to dole out govt. handouts to a white farmer. HER WORDS. That's racism in it's purest form because she's not only prejudice, she's exerting her power and control over another person when she decides not to give him govt. money. Then without actually saying whether or not she gave him money at that point, it's assumed that she did not, because she speaks of sending him to 'one of his own,' and 'his own kind,' the white lawyer, TO HELP HIM DECLARE BANKRUPTCY! Gee, thanks for the help, Ms. Sherrod. Obviously, this white couple got money eventually, or SOME sort of 'assistance' from this woman, cause now they praise her for helping them save their farms. (Checks-in-the-mail works wonders, doesn't it? The votes of millionaire farmers have been bought by the likes of Tom Harkin and his corrupt Congressional cronies ever since FDR started this pimp process, so it's nothing new to hear recipients sing the praises of government employees who hand them checks, regardless of skin color. MONEY IS GREEN!). OR MAYBE THEY'RE THANKFUL FOR THE WHITE LAWYER RECOMMENDATION cause they were able to declare bankruptcy and wipe out all their debt, even without her cash payments from Washington like the black farmers got from Ms. Sherrod! Were there no black lawyers versed in bankruptcy code? Why doesn't someone ask THESE questions? How did she actually 'help' the couple at the expense of the rest of us? And for how long? Are they still getting checks? Do they even work the farm, or did govt. simply help 'save their farm' by making it so they can sit on their butts and never work the land? Why aren't they making enough off their crops to support themselves? If they can't complete, they SHOULD sell the farm to someone else who can make a profit.
And can you imagine the flack George Bush would be getting if someone in the USDA got up and said that a black was sent to 'THEIR OWN KIND" and 'ONE OF THEIR OWN?" Why isn't anyone talking about this? It sounds like segregation, where we can only go to certain people for help, or sit at certain lunch counters, or drink from certain water fountains, or attend certain schools. Never does this woman apologize or show remorse for her prejudicial views, even though she obviously defends herself and feels they were justified as a result of white prejudice against blacks. In fact, if you watch the video, she goes out of her way to say that it's not just an issue of white vs. black, but to a GREATER extent, rich vs. poor. WATCH THE VIDEO CAREFULLY….She deliberately says that it IS an issue of black vs. white, STILL, but just not to the extent of rich vs. poor. Why isn't anyone talking about that? This woman said it in her own works, no one elses…..skin color plays a role in her thinking. How shameless she is! Once again, the double standard is exposed, by the woman herself, and no one else.
And has anyone noticed how TIRED she sounds? Is she on medication? Sedatives? Just lazy perhaps? When I first heard her start giving her speech, bragging that govt. employees never get laid off, (words which I find highly offensive and which probably contributed to her being fired), I thought 'here's the type of person that only the govt. would hire because private businesses can't compete in the marketplace with tired employees like her.' So her first job was with a non-profit doling out govt. cash, and now she's closer to the source. We need to stop funding these socialist non-profits and start laying off govt. employees. Every year, the ratio of govt. jobs to private sector jobs increases. We're ALREADY socialist, so what's next? So what do you call a country where everyone works for the government? I'll give you a hint…it starts with the letter 'C' and ends with an 'ism.' And it's exactly what the regime wants. Do you?
never worked for me…that's idi's thing…he just can't stop talking about it…u too? I'm on to buggin' u obviously….hello?

I am not certain that some modest adjustment isn't necessary. The very act of filing was complicated beyond reason and in essence, the claimants probably have some valid arguments. I hate seeing more tax money squandered, but if the $1.25 Billion finally closes the door on this unfortunate redress of grievances, then pass the dang bill and bleed me one more time. Afterwords, it is just one more reason to tell the victim-sect to shut the hell up and be done with all the claims of racist rhetoric. YES IT IS ANOTHER SHAKEDOWN. Let us just say, it is the last one! This is one of those situations where I say, pay the ticket and let those of us who are from all races and conservative just get back on the road.
Obviously she is either lying or an accomplice in an attempt to trick AB. The ONLY way AB can be guilty of wrongdoing is if he was sent the full tape and edited it himself. It would be easy to prove that he was set up either by producing the original tape or CD he was given/sent, or by showing the email received with the attachment downloaded from the server back in March. Either way, if he was working from a sources edited tape and had no other knowledge, it's obviously a set-up to attempt to smear him as racist. That MSNBC, NBC and CNN have all carried the AB is a Racist mantra lends me to believe they might have stooped so low as to be in on it or at least in a media dog-eat-dog world, complicit with the lie (which doesn't surprise me). The fact that the unedited tape appeared literally hours after the damage was done tells me the entire affair was staged. It's clearly a Bill Ayres type of ploy. This woman is no victim. I think the plan was to get Glenn Beck to bite and he didn't, yet she and the NAACP have gone forward with the lie that FOX NEWS lead this story. It's an obvious set-up.

I'd say more the score is more like five or six points for Mr. Breitbart.
To quote Tony_Costine from a reply he posted here:
'He showed her speech, showed the NAACP clapping and laughing, showed Obama throw her under the bus, showed Obama pick her up from under the bus, dust her off and giver her a Coke, and now he's showing how unhinged she and her friends are.'
To all the above, I'd add that he's showing us the way that mainstream media is twisting and turning this whole charade. From the almighty NY Times on down to the lowliest blogs, everyone is sticking to the talking point of describing a snippet of a speech as 'heavily edited' or 'doctored'. The implication being, of course, that Mr. Breitbart and/or BigGovernment not only cut a larger snippet down to the 2-minute 36-second clip that wound up triggering this whole mess (inexplicably leaving in the part where she explains her redeeming 'turning point'), but that perhaps they rearranged the video or altered the audio on it, as well. Call a snippet a snippet. The only 'editing' on this clip is the 20-second text intro and the text overlay of the actual words spoken by Ms. Sherrod.
MSNBC has been propagating the outright lie that the clip Mr. Breitbart posted purposely didn't include Ms. Sherrod's 'turning point moment' (thus proving to their viewers that this was a right-wing smear tactic). This fiction was first spread on Olbermann who only showed the first minute or so of the 02:36 clip, then claimed to get the rest (with her revelatory moment) from the NAACP website. I nearly screamed when I saw this.
MSNBC added another chapter to their rewrite last night, when Chuck Todd, to counter Mr. Breitbart's claim of the original intention for posting the clip, made the suggestion that there was no laughing or positive audience response to Ms. Sherrod's racist remarks. When Todd aired the clip to 'let the viewers decide', they purposely showed only the first twenty seconds, stopping it right when she says '…but he had come to me for help'. 'No laughter here' was their evaluation. That Breitbart guy must be hallucinating the audience laughter he claims to be hearing. If only they had played the next eleven seconds when she explains 'I was trying to decide just how much help I was going to give him,' their 'Breitbart-is-hearing-black-racism-in-his-head' schtick would be exposed for the nonsense that it is. The enthusiastic laughter is clearly evident. The MSM is a joke, but these simpletons at MSNBC take the cake. In this digital age, where all the evidence can be easily examined, they think they can easily propagate their lies. The only real doctoring of the clip that I've seen is the selective editing by MSNBC in order to vilify Mr. Breitbart and FOX News.
I also love how every left-wing talking head has to bring up Glenn Beck as the bogeyman in this whole situation, still not realizing that Mr. Beck only aired the tape a day after she had been fired nor that he defended her from start to finish. Beck being a recovering alcoholic identified with her 'turning point moment' as he put it, and excoriated the USDA, NAACP, and Obama administration for jumping the gun to fire her without having reviewed any of the facts, without having viewed the last fifty seconds of the Breitbart clip (from about 01:45 or so), let alone her entire speech.
This most recent CNN appearance by Ms. Sherrod only reveals that she's not as enlightened as she appeared in the original clip. Her labeling of Mr. Breitbart and FOX as racists is evidence of that alone– she still seems to harbor deep resentment. This clip really gets going at about 03:13 when she rolls her eyes, wags her head and starts ranting– the woman is clearly coming unstuck. The right can only hope that she stays on the air because she is making herself look worse and worse with every appearance. Combine these appearances with the evaluation of her entire speech by Bozell in Media Matters (!!) and score for Mr. Breitbart just keeps getting higher.
I never said if I was or wasn't a lawyer, but it is fairly clear you are not. In fact I would suspect that were it not for affirmative action, you might not amount to anything because your arguments are absent any legal logic whatsoever. Of course an affirmative action lawyer can get far in this country. One believing in the 57 states, the E"p"antsipation of the people and corp"s"man clearly is evidence that as long as you espouse Marxist dogma and are coddled through acadamia, you can come on to and eventually marry your boss and rise to the presidency.
Anderson Cooper is like most journalists NOT associated with FOX, a shill for the democratic (er, I mean MARXIST) party. He isn't even a believable journalist anyway and in fact, CNN went to la la land about 20 years ago.
She does sound sedated….the type of person only a govt. boss could love….the type who turns to govt. when no one else will hire you because businesses can't compete in the marketplace with people who sound like that.
There is no basis for a defamation lawsuit by Breitbart against Ms. Sherrod. Her comments are those of opinion, and are protected speech under the First Amendment. Breitbart, however, did appear to defame Ms. Sherrod by posting the claims about her in the video with actual knowledge of the falsity of those claims. At the beginning of the edited video, he claimed that she conducted her governmental duties through the prism of race, when he knew that the video referred to an experience 20+years ago when she did not work for the government. His comments since have made clear that he acted with something very much like actual malice, which is the highest standard Ms. Sherrod would have to meet to prove defamation (if she is regarded as a public figure because of her government employment). if she is not treated as public figure, the standard for proving defamation is lower than actual malice.
baby_gerald,
If you want a big part of the where this is going click on my sorebird moniker–Charles Sherrod is a civil rights hero and minister he graduated from a college with some kind of theology degree the same college has been railing against Beck and his show on liberation theology– BLT , as far as I can tell the college teaches BLT…
" Mr. James H. Cone, who is Jeremiah Wright’s spiritual mentor, explains his “black liberation theology”": has an article on the college site
It is no secret that there is a history of prejudice against certain races. Not just African American's but Native Americans, Chinese American's, Japanese American's, Irish American's, etc. We all know that it is not a history that anyone would wish for yet it is our history and remember it we must. The operative word however is history! We should acknowledge it… We should even remember it so that we do not repeat it but then move on! Do not relive it daily or use it as a crutch to justify failure.
Until we stop living in the past we will be condemned to it!
It is time to stop using the past and shun the Rev. Wright's, Jesse Jackson's and Al Sharpton's who preach it because unless they start preaching optimism and hard work instead of pessimism and entitlement they will remain Martin Luther King wanna be's and will continue to be a part of the past. Martin Luther King was a great man who preached optimism and dreamed of successes in equality that are being realized today. The others are mere charlatan's who have it in their best interest to maintain racial tension and a feeling of entitlement by keeping some in a perpetual state of psychological need. This gives them perceived power as leaders when they are clearly preventing the improvement of race relations.
Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes believable.
We should all be individually responsible for our successes and failures and claim ownership of them. In large part all races are given at least equal opportunity to succeed today. Are there examples of inequality? Of course there are but it is more rare than some would have us believe and I would submit that examples can be found of improper treatment due to the color of their skin, their age and even their sex for ALL races! Equality will grow stronger and more evident as we learn to stop blaming our difference's and start taking personal responsibility for our individual successes and failures.
Can you imagine if a white conservative stood up to an audience of the National Association for the Advancement of White People (NAAWP) speaking about all the injustices white people are receiving by having to deal with a Ms Black America and Black television channel's, Affirmative action, etc. There would be outrage and rightfully so! But the outrage should be demonstrated by all skin colors! We need to remember we are all American's with the same goals, hopes and dreams as the next person regardless of the color of our skin.
We must bond as a nation and collectively voice our outrage against all who would perpetuate hate and then capitalize from it regardless of who that hate is directed at. That includes not only those mentioned but also the other well known haters such as the Klan, the Black Panthers and any other individuals or organizations that preach it. In other words stop preaching against inequality and then turning your head when it is against another race of group of people. Recognize that inequality is wrong no matter the race. That is why the NAACP is a hypocritical organization that has outlived it's usefulness and is now justifying an existence that is no longer justifiable.
Search your soul! Are you really fighting for the future or are you living in the past? Do you recognize failure as a disease caused by race and success as luck or skin color or do you see it as the result of individual effort or lack of it? How about speaking of an optimistic future rather than citing a pessimistic past! Do you follow those who say they are for equality yet preach the past?
We can all become a part of the solution or remain a part of the problem! My life has not been one of privilege either yet I received no special favors nor do I expect them!
Examples of achieving success against excessively strong odds can be found throughout history if we search for it. It is unfortunately rarely taught but if you google George Washington Carver you will find the story of a man who achieved great success against overwhelming odds. He did it despite having every reason or excuse to give up. He did it by not looking back but dreaming forward and by working hard to achieve that dream. Good thing Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the good Rev. Wright were not around to remind him he was not supposed to succeed!
Please remember this next time you give a speech Shirley Sherrod. Speak of potential, speak of success, even speak of dreams but please leave skin color out of it! It is not skin color it is desire that creates success!
In the realm of utter nonsense, her statement rises to the level of concern over space aliens stealing our cathra and tin foil hat people calling out the conspiracies of the X-Files as actual true cases. She's lost all credibility whatsoever.
I guess when Bu$h, Wall St and your friends ripped OFF the country and left the incoming President with a load of "Bu$hit" you said nothing.
All the insider trading, hedge funds, swindling of people, tax cuts for the very rich was OK.
Racist discrimination against farmers who although winning in court are still refused their money , presently being fought by the Repukes claiming that they must get proof. Wall St lost loads of money and these same Repukes never asked for proof.
I guess it was matters of a different color. But that was OK for people like you.
$13 M is a big talking point for you but remember that was just a mere taking for one Wall St "thief" as a bonus. Not one is in jail!!!
I am sure wimps like you said NOTHING, I guess you may be one of them.
You people are just PURE RACISTS and exposing yourselves to the public domain under the guise of "concern for the economy". Just a bunch of hypocrites. Go to church tomorrow and ask forgiveness for the CRAP you are spouting here.
I shall pray for you
I guess they should walk or get a mule.
But even that you did not give them and their 40 acres.
You scumbag.
These type of comments do not carry us forward as a nation. I am sure you support the troops and want to go and fight for democracy in other countries and this is the type of CRAP you spread. Show the crap you write to one of your kids. Would you be a proud dad??
You are an excellent Brietbart crap eater and supporter. Look at you strying away from the original accusation to suit yourself. You racists are just funny! Remember it was the claim of discrimination, the audience, the NAACP etc…..now you reach to Marx. You racists are just funny!
Breitbart has shown us definitively, what's exactly is wrong with journalism and the tone of our politics today. Forget Racism…. America is just getting plain stupid with tabloid journalism, and the lack of ethics in reporting and verifying sources. Isn't there enough news without trying to manufacture a news story?
Mr. Bill; It's very clear that you were not refused entry to the main floor of a theater as a child because you were Black. It's also obvious that you weren't afforded entry into college because you were Black. It's also very obvious that you weren't called nigger in Marine Corps boot camp and in Vietnam when all you wanted to do was serve your country. These memories are very difficult to put aside. Are you asking the Jews to forget the Holocaust? No, you're not. Then why on Earth are you asking Blacks to forget that their people were enslaved and mistreated for hundreds of years? That even some President of this country (Thomas Jefferson) took sexual advantage of slaves. Or that a President of the United States (Woodrow Wilson) allowed viewing of The Birth of a Nation at the Whitehouse.
I could go on forever. My point is, you want to forget history when it is uncomfortable for you. Will you first ask the Jews to forget the Holocaust? Why not??? Are you going to make up another rule or clarifier to say, "Oh. That's apples and oranges."? If you don't, then I would consider that as avoidance. (Cowardly behavior.)
A personal question for you; did you go to war for this country? If you didn't, then I regard you as another person who takes advantage of our freedom but was/is afraid to fight for it.
Without their preoccupation with racism the NAACP would have no reason to exist. These people listened to the portion of Sherrod's story where she was describing racist bahavior on her part and nodded, applauded and murmured support. Just watch them Deeply racist. In context with the Journolist discussions where Ackerman recommended falsely accusing conservatives of racism in order to distract them from the Reverend Wright story it is pretty clear that the NAACP and the Democrats and all the rest of the race pimps use accusations of racism in a purely manipulative and cynical way. End of story.
And exactly what is it you make of the fact that these same bankers donated far more heavily to Obama in the primaries and the election and to the Democrats than to the Republicans. What do you make of the fact that 9/10 of the highest recipients of donations from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the great enablers of the housing crash, were to Democrats with Barney Frank #1 and Chris Dodd #2? What do you make of the fact that the money lent in the original Bush bill has been repaid while the trillion given out by Obama to his buddies was not? What do you make of the extortionate tactics used by Rattner to intimidate the noteholders of the Chrysler bonds so they would give control of the emergent Chrysler to the UAW? Are you okay with all this????
If you watch the film, while Sherrod was describing her racist behavior towards the white farmer initially the NAACP members in the audience where applauding and murmuring agreement. Subsequent words are not exculpatory to the fact that the NAACP members were okay with her penalizing the white farmer. I also note that even in her later partially exculpatory comments there was nothing about actually reversing the damage she did to the white farmer. The bottom line was that her behavior in office was wrong, dead wrong. The fact that she later realized it is better than not realizing it but does not change the fact that her initial behavior was wrong.

In a nutshell, liberals stand for the destruction of America.
They hate business and free enterprise and want the federal government to control every important aspect of our lives.
They want to force us to join unions. They want to tell our children what to believe. They want total control over our health care and energy.
Sorry, you may think you are patriotic, but the things liberals stand for – those are completely foreign to what makes America great.
Liberals hate it when minorities escape the Democrat Plantation, where in exchange for their votes and souls, they get a few handouts now and then but are told they can't make it on their own without their Dem Masters.
You look so good in love, you want me it's easy to see. Hung any Black Americans today? Still hiding those little boys in the crawlspace of your home, dumdown or is it John Wayne Gacy? Weren't you a fundraiser for the Democrat party? Why, yes, I believe you were. A baby-raper/murderer was a fundraiser for the DemoTards–you must have been very proud of that one.
Your pissing your time away hassling your superiors a/k/a adults is all the proof that you have no marketable skills a person needs. Somebody steal your noose? Is that why your here? Gone through all the Muslim Dancing Boys? Or do you call it the Dating Game? http://www.debbieschlussel.com/20825/must-watch-t...
"I am just as much a patriot as any other citizen." Not if you're going to allow yourself to be played in this racism-based distraction the purpose of which has nothing to do with solving any social problems but rather the abetting of the Islamo-Communist revolution under way. Hung any Blacks lately? Or are you one of those throwbacks who childishly still tries to get away with using the "n" word by saying, "niggroe?"
You still seem to be averse to discussing your proclivity to bugger young boys. Your silence on that is stunningly loud and speaks volumes about your complicity in this most heinous of criminal and perverse behavior. Everybody knows you're guilty of this–here's a link to the downloadable video you forgot to have purged from the net to cover your politico-criminal activity: http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2...
pendit1 - July 24th, 2010 at 5:59 pm
Well, there she goes, again! Be careful !
Standing between Ms. Sherrod and Lefty 'reporters' and their AV equipment will become increasingly dangerous.
Hmm..Shirley made these same remarks about Fox news the other day. She does not seem creative in her racist rants. Limited like the NAACP, NBP, and other great class warfare groups. These comments may play well in Jeremiah Wright's little house of Liberation Theology worship house but not in the rest of America.
UPIBill - July 24th, 2010 at 6:06 pm
Ron first off thank you for your service.
Secondly you have no clue what my background is. You have no idea what names I have been called and what struggles I have endured. Because you are black you assume that only you have problems and your reply is exactly the narrow minded BIGOTRY and poor me attitude that keeps the African American's from becoming more successful. You are so eaten up with it that you can not see that I am clearly in your corner but unafraid to speak the truth like most are. You respond before you digest the message. I will stand by my words and if you open your eyes and start liking people and stop being so prejudice yourself you might learn that I was speaking for you not against you! It is a shame and it is a waste of an obviously intelligent person for you to be so full of anger and prejudice. It is in your interest and my interest that we do not have false leaders, Black Ms. Americas. It is like Obama said. Not a Black America or a White America but ONE AMERICA! You know Ron I can not imagine you as my neighbor because you would NEVER give me a chance to be your friend. That my friend makes you the one with the prejudice. Remember this. Not all whites are good people… but neither are all blacks. There are some of us who are good decent people who do not look down on anyone!
You assumed I did not serve our country. Does you being black make your service somehow more important than a white persons because that is the way I take it!
So… Let's just talk military my friend. I spent ten years in the service from 1970 to 1980 and I am very lucky to be here typing this. Difference is I have also done other things with my life. Nothing was given to me and I never cried because of it!
Now I will tell you that you DO NOT talk a good game. You talk the same lame game that everyone talks who would rather cry in their beer instead of bucking up and facing life! I never said to forget your past. In fact I encouraged you to remember it but not to dwell on it, use it for an excuse to fail or expect entitlements for it.
Here is EXACTLY what I said..
"It is no secret that there is a history of prejudice against certain races. Not just African American's but Native Americans, Chinese American's, Japanese American's, Irish American's, etc. We all know that it is not a history that anyone would wish for yet it is our history and remember it we must. The operative word however is history! We should acknowledge it… We should even remember it so that we do not repeat it but then move on! Do not relive it daily or use it as a crutch to justify failure.
Until we stop living in the past we will be condemned to it! "
So Ron… Why don't you buck up and be a man instead of writing to me to tell me how bad you have it and judging me like you have a right to! You are doing EXACTLY what you claim is being done to you!
Finally and for your information some of my best friends in the service, growing up and even now have been black. My neighbors are black and are among my best friends. You see Ron I do not see color. I only see people and want to help them but the attitude you displayed is exactly why you are actually worse than I am for being honest and if you think about it you know I am speaking sincerely and honestly. Nothing I said was an attack or prejudicial. The worst thing I said was that the leaders of the African American community do not have your best interest at heart. They are self serving and self aggrandizing hypocrites out for their own gain! If you take off your blinders then you know I am right. I actually like Al Sharpton but just not his hypocrisy!
Now for a little story that is VERY true! I went to high school in the 60s in the Birmingham Alabama area during the race riots and was in high school when the first black student was admitted. If you could find that black student named John then he would tell you a story. He would tell you how this white boy from Missouri did not see black and white he only saw a new person in school. He would tell you how his integration into a white school was perhaps one of the easiest in the South because this white boy befriended him the first day! He would tell you that the white boy actually had some difficulty for befriending a black man but over time the new student actually became quite popular as when people got to know him they found out he was just a person. That white boy from Missouri was me Ron so go easy on your judgements and go easy on your poor me judgmental attitude Ron because there are many of us who had rough lives not just you!
GLENN BECK AND FOX NEWS were the targest and Andrew Brietbart was the trigger finger of friendly fire–the target of which was FOX News and Glenn Beck– but Andrew missed the target because Glenn Beck saw it coming, as Andrew should have and may have ??– Glenn ducked and returned a devastating counter attack that took out Olinsky, the NAACP and the MSM all with one shot, Beck wisely took Ms Sherrod's side (and the left say's Beck is a clown and an idiot). Ms, Sherrod even attempted to set Beck up when she said; she was forced out because she was going to be on The Glenn Beck show—not in the way she anticipated though.
Here is very strong evidence, not proof, but given Olinsky tactics and the fact that they are being used daily in the MSM, NAACP and the side walks and halls of CONgress, this should come as no real stretch of the imagination either.
Union Community Responds to Glenn Beck⨠James Cone and Black Liberation Theology in the Spotlight
In a recent segment of his Fox news show, Glenn Beck took aim at Liberation Theology, especially that of Dr. James H. Cone, Union's Charles A. Briggs Distinguished Professor of Systematic Theology. Several Union students, faculty, alumni/ae and administrators have reacted to the program, in news articles, blog posts and even a YouTube video. Several are highlighted below.
I did some homework after I finally saw Ms Sherrod's speech; In her capacity of USDA recruiter for the giant corporate welfare arm of the USDA (USDA is nothing more than an arm of government corporate welfare–think ethanol as the number one example), to the NAACP in the light of Black Liberation Theology BLT (a Theology that appeared the NAACP audience members are familiar with)–pointed out to me in another thread, by poster BuddyTWD, where she almost had me converted due to the elitist verbiage she used–verbiage that I am very much in agreement with on the elitist points, because they are a Tea Party kind of stance, the difference is who the elitist actually are and the use of race as the means to take the elitist down and out–big government and big business alliance, but that is another thread altogether—back to the home work– and it was very refreshing and revealing, this bullet was meant for Glenn Beck and Breitbart was the friendly fire meant to take Beck out….
A little history on Ms Sheerod's husband Charles Sheerod a Theologian with a masters degree in something called sacred theology STM and a civil rights hero of I believe the black Power movement–not positive on the black power point….this is where it gets good— The degree is from Union Theological Seminary and their website is full of attacks on Glenn Beck for his show on Black & White Liberation Theology's or just Liberation Theology in general…..check this out
It is often pointed out that Sherrod went to southwest Georgia and never left. After a brief sojourn in New York, where he received his master's degree in sacred theology from Union Theological Seminary http://www.utsnyc.edu/glennbeck in 1967, Sherrod returned to the Southwest Georgia Project for Community Education, where he served as director from 1961 to 1987. He also directed New Communities, Inc., a cooperative farming project, from 1969 to 1985. He served on the Albany City Commission from 1976 to 1990, and in 1996 ran unsuccessfully for Georgia State Senate. Sherrod currently works as a chaplain at the Georgia State Prison in Homerville, Georgia.

I dunno. Given the thin resume and incompetence of the guy at the top and the sheer idiocy of his #2, the law of averages says they *have* to have hired someone more qualified somewhere along the way.

Republicans…especially the Tea Baggers are the most EVIL people on the face of this earth! Look at the Taliban and you'd see yourselves! You hide behind the bible of which you DO NOT READ and DO NOT LIVE BY! Christ is and always will be about LOVE! Not you tea bagging republicans…It's all about the WHITE MAN and how the WHITE MAN has or is being treated! Look at how the WHITE MAN has treated others throughout the years…Look at what the WHITE MAN did to take over land that wasn't his!
IF YOU HAVE NOT LOVE THEN YOU HAVE NOT CHRIST!
Christ: How can you say you love me whom you have NOT SEEN and HATE your brother who you SEE everyday?
Republican/Teabagger: It's my constitutional right!
Thanks for the response…
You know the NAACP and Shirley Sherrod are not going admit they're racists, even as she's claiming redemption. The only thing left for the NAACP and their enablers, are to repave the street with the best tar, with government and MSM aid, that money can buy. Facts trumped BS, so through the smoke and fire, Andrew Breitbart is clearly the winner.
gpbiv - July 24th, 2010 at 8:21 pm
I cant believe that the president even had to get involved. What is she the head of in the USDA, im sure its not just a desk job, come on. Besides that before her pivot point everyone in the crowd was nodding their heads basically show that they agreed with what she was saying. They act like they are past the white black situation when obviously they arent. Main streem media does not pick up on points like this. Like everyone says you have to look at the context that the way they speech was giving to the audience. This even shows the crowds reaction's to what she were saying.
im so sick of this race baiting. i voted for obama, but i didn't vote for this. no states rights over immigration, advocating affirmative action and calling all tea partiers racist. Ive actually started watching bill oreilly and glenn beck and noticed they talk about racism less than CNN or MSNBC. and when they do talk about racism like the black panthers or van jones, they are talking about people who are really racist and demanding action. it is clear that the liberals are becoming racists in their witch hunt for conservative racists.
She has got passed black vs, white, my ass, she doesn't fool anyone with half a brain. When she sees the health care debate as racist, I think that kind of proves the point.

The Obama Administration has enabled this lady to play the race card like it's going out of style (it already has, I know).
She's completely lost her mind, her credibility, and now the Administration and NAACP are looking like even BIGGER fools for jumping the gun and supporting her as a victim after they jumped the gun by firing her.
Breitbart should be smiling right now. He deserves it.
What she is SCREAMS so loudly that I can't really hear anything she is saying.
She tells a story of "conversion" to a group that is not interested in letting go of racism, (racism is their stock in trade). This group had no way of knowing that she was going to bring the story to a pivot point, during her speech, she seems awefully proud of how she had mistreated the white farmer who was "showing her he was superior to her" (does this sound like a post racial person at all, or someone paying lip service to the idea?)
This Group she was giving her speech to, an NAACP crow was laughing, and nodding approval at her recanting of how she mistreated and even cheated the white farmer, BEFORE they knew she was going to pivot the message to a positive one.
Anyone who ignores this is simply either a racist themselves, or a cynical political hack.
Andrew Breitbart = 1
Georgia NAACP = 0

NOVEMBER, VOTE THE DIRTY COMMIE RATS OUT
LOL she is a moron
Obama acted stupidly [again].
I was giving her the benefit of the doubt over her initial comments since the original clips were just that, clips. I wanted the full context of her speech. As this mess unfolded, the more I began to understand that Sherrod didn't have this great epiphany and the clips expressed her real views. After her Fox bashing as well as calling Fox and Brightbart racists, I knew for sure, she's little more than just another racist on the Left trying to deflect it onto the Right.
I'm probably going into conspiracy theory land but I really am starting to wonder if this whole episode wasn't a set-up from the start…
Yes she is but not that big of a moron… run number one – never hire an employee who has higher qualifications then your self. Certainly, no one in this administration has violated that rule.
That's 4 minutes and 4 seconds I'll never get back, thanks. -grin-
First time I've watched anything on/from CNN since the first Gulf War. Now, on to another 20 yrs without them, I hope.
I'm a white voter who is getting sick of being called a closet racist. Ideologically I dislike Obama. That doesn't mean I'm a racist. I know Breitbart's beliefs because I pay attention and support what he's said. Calling him a racist is calling all white conservatives racists. I'm voting and I'll remember in November.
Shut down the NAACP, they are obviously the ones with the racial overtones. The fools got brain damage or they have been hittin the glass dik again.
mmmmm, I need about $13 million…..where is my $13 million????
Money Money Money….Money!!!!!!!!
Social Justice in the way of COLD HARD CASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Breitbart, you do NOT have to take this Sh*t.
Expose the Pigford claims for what it is…a complete redistribution of taxpayer funds…this crap is bankrupting our country!!!!!!!
By the time Pigford claims II, III, IV and who knows what else get filed, this will cost over a trillion bucks.
obama Championed this cause as a senator-Sherrod is the hero of the Pigford Claimants with the largest award.
Dude, this woman Sherrod was put into the USDA after she got her claim as a liason to other Pigford claimants-seriously to hold their hands and send them down the Track B path to millions. hey why settle for $62,500 when you can go track B and get a USDA arbitrated instant award.
Congressional Committee records show that Dr. Joe Leonard, JR, Assistant secretary of Civil Rights for the USDA testified and they discuss liaisons to be hired within the USDA.
The average award for Track B claimants for Pigford I cases doubled to over $900K for average from 2008 to 2009.
in 2008 average Track b award was around $479,000.
This is Cloward and Piven to the T–work within the system to bankrupt the system.
This is NOT NOT NOT about race at all-this is about redistribution.
Go back to Media Matters Tim and stick it. We don't play that game on this site. Maybe you just got lost on the way to Daily Kos.
Her fifteen-minutes-of-fame are going to be priceless for Andrew Breitbart. So many people have been wringing their hands over this whole thing — saying AB was set up — please. The Obama administration is not just stuck with her, a self-described race-monger, but they are defined by her. This is playing out almost as if AB planned it this way.
Note to hand-wringers: have a little faith next time.
What a ridiculous woman. She thinks she's off the hook and in the clear. Now would be the strategic time to STFU while you're ahead.
This Pigford v. Vilsack suit sounds like a SHAKE DOWN and her "New Communities" the beneficiary of the ill gotten largesse. Just how does a state level government offical in the year 2009 or 2010 warrant a "pain & suffering" award of $300K? Hmmm? How? Why?
Oh forgot those figures the ones about the doubling of the Pigford Track B awards are from the USDA Pigford claim website–dedicated website with a toll free number.
Do not stand down-expose this socialist crap for what it is.
Wow.. you know, these are gifts from the left. We should all applaud her and let all of her kind speak. As they do, they reveal. Let them reveal. I've heard smarter things come from my 6 year old son, who actually, now that I think about it, is smarter than her. So please conservatives, write CNN and MSNBC etc.. and beg that they put her and her kind on. It's like Christmas daily.
Keep it up jackoff. I've reported this comment for removal. You HuffPo trolls are incredible racist pigs.
It is kind of like fishing!
Andrew dangled a little bait and the Liberal, lying NAACP took it hook, line and sinker
In the process they exposed the Liberal, lying Obama Administration for the bunch of hypocritical, inept clowns they are… BRILLIANT!
"Breitbart did it?" Really? Is Breitbart the one who denounced Sherrod in front of the NAACP before reviewing the facts? Is Breitbart the one who canned her? You guys should stick to "Bush did it!"
"Snookered?" Really? Sherrod was not the focus of the clip, but it clearly shows the complete ignorance and race-baiting by the NAACP and the racism and gross negligence by Obama and the idiots currently running America.
The Black Tea Party… Are you tired of the NAACP, Black Caucus, Black Panthers and all hollering racist at the Tea Party and conservative Americans? Check this vid for a refreshing view.

I would think that Shirley would want very much for this entire episode to blow over and quietly go away. Otherwise someone might start digging into that lawsuit settlement of hers and just exactly why she got that USDA job and what she had been doing all those years after her supposed conversion.
It wasn't the Tea Party, Fox or BB that fired heranyway. No that was the action of her beloved president.
BO sure did seem to be in a big hurry to get rid of her, wonder why?
yup. This whole operation she runs doesn't pass the extortion smell test. I smell a shakedown and a BIG FRAUD scheme. Who will question hard working black farmers about a fraud scheme? Hmm? No political appointee in the South, that's for sure.

This is a bad play for Sherrod. She was getting a lot of sympathy from the public, even from those on the right. Now that she has set up camp at CNN she's showing the world that she isn't a victim but instead a leftist whack job who sees everything through the prism of race.
Andrew I hope you read this, you need to "out" whomever it was that leaked this video to you. This individual had the entire vid they got out to you in pieces they knew exactly what they were doing. We need to know who it is and find out all we can on them. Stop protecting this person Andrew, you were deceived! Outing this person IMO would not violate any journalistic rules with regards to source confidentiality. It is clearer than ever this was a set up. The fringe media is at full force. That ass olbermann with his rhetorical bs came out pretty darn fast. What is happening and this witch hunt against you and Fox is the radicals attempt to capitalize off of the constant lies of racism. To this day there is no proof of racism but that doesnt matter anymore as the control of the narrative prevents that. Oddly I just wrote up my new tactic for STR about controlling the narrative and here they are doing it again.
I implore everyone here to do your homework on this woman, something is not right. This execution of racism by the radicals got a major boost this week regardless of the fact it completely backfired with the initial coverage it was given at Fox. Coverage we all can agree initially was minimal and they had "canned" her before the story ever got steam.
This is a nasty game the radicals are playing which started back in March, they want this tag of racism to stick they want to instigate an event. I cannot stress it enough to all to stand down if you attend any type of meeting, rally, event etc should you encounter infiltrators. Surround them silence them out with positive words, heck sing the national anthem but do nothing more. They are trying to orchestrate a false flag event with Breitbart, Beck and Fox to blame! King Obama wants an event so he through his regulator czar Sunstein can clamp down on any media organization showing opposition to his radical agenda.
Remember folks this is all a game to them, a tennis match really and "we the people" are the ball! STOP playing their game and start playing your game through http://www.savingtherepublic.com
This lady is sitting on $13 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars and she is saying Brietbart wants to go back to slavery.
$13 MILLION freaking dollars and this woman is espousing she is a victim.
Dammit the US taxpayer is the victim here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta go my head just exploded, brain matter all over the keyboard, nasty mess.
say "buh bye" asshat, liberal plant agitator.
NO ONE looks more foolish and NOT credible now than Breitbart & THIS SITE> what a bunch of fools you are…You will never get your credibility back you whacko nutjob!
Well, I guess Breitbart can sue her for defamation of character, right? At least in his video he was only using her own words. Here, she says some pretty vile stuff about him — things that she could not possibly verify.
baloney Shirley starred in the video, the NAACP laughed.
Hmmm… I dunno. I think you look pretty foolish. And you never had any credibility. So go away….
take your meds
YOU are going to get your ass sued off Breitbart! DEFAMATION is clear cut in this case…get ready for payback time…hope your cash stack is big. karma's a bitch.
You know, with all this stimulus money being spent on highway projects, fewer trolls are homeless and more have bridges to live under.
CHECK IT OUT PIGFORD IS TACKED ONTO THE DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS BILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CALL YOUR REPS-this is all a freakin' sideshow.
HERE IS YOUR MEAT AND POTATOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is why it's NOT being covered at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
$1.15 Billion is up for vote. For the PIGFORD II claims.
http://thehill.com/business-a-lobbying/110507-she...
"Then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) was key in adding a $100 million fund to the 2008 Farm Bill to help pay back those late claims. Now, thanks to a renegotiated court settlement known as Pigford II, Congress is close to passing $1.15 billion in compensation for those late filers, which is attached to the war supplemental appropriations bill.
"The bill has already passed the House. A Senate leadership aide said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) planned to hold a vote on the war supplemental appropriations bill this week — perhaps as early as Thursday — with the discrimination settlement funds attached to that bill.
It is not clear, however, if the supplemental with the settlement funds attached could win the necessary 60 Senate votes to beat back an expected Republican filibuster, according to the same aide.
Paige is urging the Senate to approve the funding before the August break.
“They need to vote on this thing before Congress is recessed for the summer,” Paige said. “It will help us put a black eye behind us as a country.” "
So this I got to ask is the $1.15 Billion in addition to the BY 2010 $1.25 BILLION Obama put in his BY@)!)-because from all that I read that $1.25 BILLION was approved already or is this the one and the same-somebody help me out on this one.
don't address me EVER again troll liberal. Oh and say "buh bye"…
Hey, can you give me $13 million?
In Ms. Sharrod's full transcript, she calls anyone who is against Obama a racist.
Here, again, since Mr. Breitbart is against Obama's policies, she calls him a racist. That is her "proof".
Ms. Sharrod, it's not up to Mr. Breitbart to prove he isn't a racist, it's up to you to provide facts and evidence that he is! You do that, then he responds and we get a volley going.
Just like when he shows evidence that you ARE a racist, it's up to you to prove him wrong. Judging by the full text of your speech that, that would be impossible.
Racist public employees getting fired is nothing new! She deserved it. Now she's Al Sharpton in drag and will embarrass Obama more we hope she is here to stay.
This woman is talking out of her @ss…..The more the left bellyaches about this, the more obvious
it gets that they got together and tried to setup AB…..For her to say AB wants blacks to be slaves
again is totally moronic….Get over it Sherrod, we fought the battle over slavery 150 years ago…
YOU sound like a skilled lawyer, who know everything there is to know about the law. Oh, ya "OMG" you DON'T sound like a skilled lawyer – you sound like a dolt. "OMG!"
So anyone who disagrees with the President, simply because he's black, is a racist. It has nothing to do with his policies destroying this nation's economic capabilities, or his nationalization of auto, finance or heathcare, eh? Gee, haven't we heard this before from the JOURNO-LIST hacks? Can someone say, BROKEN RECORD?
Someone who spews this verbal diarrhea should not have the luxury of being paid a salary by taxpayers and be working in a job where, in her own words, you can't get fired.
Someone who sues the government for millions of dollars and wins should not later be rewarded with a job where she's paid by taxpayers.
This woman takes a very simple-minded approach towards people who do not share her point of view. Saying that Breitbart wants to bring back slavery because of this little kerfuffle is just preposterous. As Breitbart has said before, you can't prove a negative. He can't prove he's NOT a racist, but she has zero evidence to support her assertion.
I think the only good thing that will come out of Odumbo's presidency is that people will become completely immunized against the tired practice of using the race card.
Sherrod's latest claims are ridiculous and wrong, but that doesn't change the fact Breitbart posted clips which mislead about the substance of her speech and that he explicitly falsely claimed that she was bragging about racism.
http://biggovernment.com/abreitbart/2010/07/19/vi....

Breitbart said:
We are in possession of a video from in which Shirley Sherrod, USDA Georgia Director of Rural Development, speaks at the NAACP Freedom Fund dinner in Georgia. In her meandering speech to what appears to be an all-black audience, this federally appointed executive bureaucrat lays out in stark detail, that her federal duties are managed through the prism of race and class distinctions.
—
Like I've said many times before (usually in the context of the NAACP smearing some a greeting card company or some such) falsely smearing someone as racist is reprehensible.
Her prism of race and class distinctions is quite evident. When she says "it wasn't about black and white, well it is about black and white, but more about the poor and those that have." and when she accuses FOX news of racism, rather than jumping the gun, it's quite evident she sees through a prism of race and class distinctions.
The Pigford settlement, and this whole sad affair should make it evident to anyone, that she should not be working in government, mishandling taxpayer dollars, but rather in the private sector, where she could probably get a job trying to resuscitate Air America.
Look at her eyes while she's talking about Breitbart. She's either extremely tired, or she talks as if her brain is barely connected to her mouth. Like her jaw muscles and tongue understand the movements necessary to regurgitate the "…he's a racist" line, but the brain doesn't understand why it's being said.
this is the real story! will CNN cover it? hmmm…..
I aid it before, she needs to shut up before she gets in any deeper!
so then in a sense, Chicago politics will not work on the rest of America? We're watching and we will not turn our heads and say we didn't see anything!
thats a good one. real high iq's on this here site…just trolling for minnows.
no thanks ignoramus. it's a free country remember? I know you and your like wish it weren't so for some. Too bad if you don't like the TRUTH beeeoatch.
This woman has just sold her own self out.
If AB can get sued for 30 seconds of Ms. Sherrod's own words in a video, then every news agency is in big trouble. Not a chance. More likely, she'll sue the government (again) — this time for unlawful firing and (of course, predictably) pain and suffering. And, the government will cave in. In reality, we've had to suffer through this non-story for days now — hey, I want compensation, too!
Thanks for the Info. Most needed.
Enslaving the poor to entitlement programs, by this Administration, to complete the Transformation of America into Socialism is the only slavery I see.
We need this kind of info. Keep it coming. It will spread across America and will open people's eyes to the dirty political games that honest people are victims of.
Keep your posts coming. They are helpful.
If her racism can be proved, then defamation won't make it past the courthouse steps. I'm betting there's more evidence of her proclivities and prejudices.
Her desperate "slave" card is a HUGE re-direct away from herself.
Time will tell. Truth will out.
Just wondering, since Sherrod is thinking about suing Breitbart, can the Tea Party Movement bring a lawsuit against the congressmen who claimed they were called the N word 15 times. Due to their claims, the NAACP has labeled the Tea Party a racist movement. The media has repeated the congressmen's claims over and over with no proof whatsoever. I would love to have these congressmen testify under oath that their claims are true and see what proof they have.
"Breitbart wants Blacks to be slaves again"
yeaaaaaa,……Sherrod had an epiphany.
what is it with all these lefties one these posts,……..
it's almost as if they feel compelled to prove THEY are not racists,…….
I guess the conscience is a powerful force.
She sure is stuck-up on herself………and quite miserable to boot.
That's the first time I've seen AssClown360, and I'm not impressed.
My point is that Breitbart mischaracterized her speech before the NAACP as racist and posted two misleading clips as evidence.
What she said before Fox News was wrong and the Pigford settlement should certainly be investigated, but none of that makes what Breitbart said about her speech any less false. I expect lies and misleading video clips from leftists not from the Bigs.
And the mainstream media never makes mistakes. You've got people on Journolist talking about making up claims of racism at random without evidence to destroy them, which actually happens, and what do we hear from the left about that? *crickets*
It's not about principles, honesty, or the truth for the left. It's all politics.
And the defamation against the private citizens in the Tea Party for being racist and accusations of racial slurs being spoken that's contradicted by the video evidence? This isn't about principles or karma. It's all about politics, isn't it? If Breitbart broke the law, then that will be up for the courts to decide, not you.
NO SHIRLEY…Dem;s are keeping blacks SLAVES to their party… AND Blacks are stupid enough to fall for it for ..uhhh HOW MANY YEARS!!!????
Defamation???? Sorry…SHIRLEY is a RACIST..or WAS..ANd her SPEECH was totally DELIVERED THE WRONG WAY..SHE baited her audience along..while they laughed and applauded..IF she wasnt a RACIST.>SHE WOULD have delievered her speech a totally DIFFERENT WAY.. She screwed herself… AND sadly the truth came out about her deep seeded feelings…. Which to my understanding..she's even sued the USDA before… nice to have a Govt Job where you are in charge of who gets HELP and who doesnt..Wonder how many other cases went by her desk that we didnt hear about..SHIRLEY wants to sue..You can bet that any WHITE FARMERS that never got help from that dept..WILL be called , and will see their possible denial of financial help, wasnt indeed due to her being a RACIST.
Stay strong, Breitbart! Please know you have support. Context is everything and yes, you have provided context.
Here's the sad part. Nobody (beginning with Breitbart) did their homework and now they are all trying to cover their collective vertical smiles. Unfortunately, Breitbart and Fox have done exactly the wrong thing here. Breitbart stays in the attack mode. That will only help the liberals stay on attack. Fox is trying to justify themselves by taking the position they were just giving the story. Excuse me, but don't the both of you complain continually about the liberal media for the exact same things? Face it, you failed to do your research and you got burned. Now do the right thing. Admit it, apologize for it, and hope you don't have to pay Sherrod too much money. You will pay.
Wow, all 52 cards in her deck are race cards. I lost count of how many got slapped on the table in this interview alone. She's obviously not very bright and totally self centered and wallowing in glory and racist righteous indignation. What a piece of work she is.
Andy and his band of bloggers have a HUGE following willing to pay ANYTHING to fund any defense he may have to mount. Don't get your hopes up. James and Hannah benefited from this group's largess as well. Anyone who's willing to stand up to the mau-mauing of America has a support network to which the left seems blind.
If this incident teaches us anything, it's that we've become so conditioned to the racism of those who claim to be its victims that such doctored clips as the one that set off this firestorm are entirely believable.
I live and work in DC and have become very used to experiencing what used to be called "reverse racism," but which is now the "new racism," and I saw that clip as very representative of what goes on around here all the time.
Here's an organization that is sanctioned by the government. It's meeting announcements proliferate in every government building: http://www.bignet.org/
One wonders what would happen if someone tried to start up an organization called "Whites In Government?" BIG seems to me to be a forum for teaching people how to game the system. Shouldn't such resources be available to all civil servants?
Don't answer those questions. We all know the answers.
It's long past time we stopped this nonsense, dropped the race cards into the wastebasket, and got on with the business of being just Americans.
"Breitbart Wants Blacks To Be Slaves Again"
Wait.
Breitbart is a…..Democrat?
Who knew?
Wait.
George Soros is a……conservative?
Who knew?
Do you suppose that Soros is one of those sleepers planted decades ago by the same "Moscow Center" that ran the bunch that was recently rolled-up?
Geez! Do you think it's possible?
His uber-liberal actions that appear to fly in the face of retaining the wealth he's built up seem to indicate a serious disconnect between what got him to his position of wealth and what's likely to sustain it.
He doesn't seem to me to be the kind who would be racked with liberal guilt. That doesn't offer a satisfactory answer to his machinations.
When is this woman going to shut up? She says the dumbest things.
I get why she is upset but the media is letting her make an ass out of herself with those ridiculous comments.
ALL generalizations are worthless, Xhristopherus ("Anyone who ignores this, etc.). What the NAACP audience knew about her history is unknowable, but we can surmise program lit and her introduction had included bio-data. In any event, she was clearly not discussing Dept of Ag duties when describing a farmer "sent to me for help by (USDA or Georgia Ag Dept.)."
Had I been in that audience, and understood she was relating a past experience, I would've laughed at her depictions of "showing (her) he was superior" and "Of course, I didn't give him the full force of what I could do." I'd consider these humorously-intended lines, not necessarily to be taken literally, but making a point.
(continued)
(continued)
Now, I'm white, and while I've encountered no few number of condescending jerks who believed themselves "superior" (intellectually, economically, whatever), I cannot relate to an attitude of racial superiority; but I'd bet dollars to donuts that most audience members born before 1970, knew exactly what she meant and had at one time or another, felt it personally and to the bone. I give them credit for handling it, in retrospect, with humor. That's healthy.
Andrew's gambit was enormously effective, and the NAACP's "We were snookered" nonsense was frosting on the cake: the NAACP was "seeing the speck" in another's eye, while oblivious to the mote in its own. We all have to be careful of that.
Breitbart should sue this dumb bitch for defamation.
Shut down Brietbart, shut down Fox shut down the entire Republican party you are a bunch of insane whackos.
Cool. Get ready to pay losers. And can't wait to shut down this website and take the royalties from his book. Oh yes, and Fox News. See ya.
All the twisting and shouting isn't going to help. Pay Brietbart, pay up for life. You are done with your rants.
Slaves again??? The majority of the black community is and always have been slaves on the liberal plantation. If you stray off, your an "Uncle Tom" or some other derogatory term. Wake up people! You have a home in the conservative movement and just don't see it. This video is just STUPID!!!
They reported false and defamatory information with actual malice (with reckless disregard for the truth). Bye bye losers.
Troll want a cracker?
Good. They'll need all they can get. America as a whole thinks you all are off your tea partyin' rockers!
me too….hope this site rakes it in….we want it.
No, the evidence clearly shows a racist tea party, not a racist speech in the least, if you watch the entire thing. You ignorant morons who call her racist instead of your own are not proving anything. You just can't handle the truth you ugly hateful conservatives….you even hate the word LIBERAL. Freaks.
Chicago politics didn't even work very well in Chicago.
Hope and Change in Chicago… http://usataxpayer.org/htm/vids.asp?A=3100376
yup and James O'keefe was a terrorist
what a twit
This woman is a waste of time. Isn't her 15 minutes up? Ms Sherrod, shut up and go back to the $13M you took from taxpayers.
false and defamatory- that's funny. It was her speech of a topic of her choice, in front of her (as she would consider it, not I an not anyone else that is not consumed with dividing everyone into small groups to better control) people, which is the whole point of her racism.
It's not as if the white farmer or his wife suffered any pain or suffering all those months fighting for their farm that it took her to realize that It shouldn't be about race but that is all she can see.
Oh, and thanks for the definition but I think I can handle a dictionary if I need it, but in this case it wasn't required.
Will she learn that Breitbart wasn't her enemy. She needs to look at herself, the NAACP and this administration as her enemies.
Now, will Andrew Breitbart file a lawsuit against this RACIST for defamation of character?
Uh, yeah, right. And the economy is getting better, this administration created or saved 3 million or more jobs, everybody is sooooo thankful now for their health care package that solved all our problems, we're sooooo grateful for all those unemployment checks that are less than half what we would get if we were actually able to find a job, ya-da, ya-da.
You must really like kool-aid.
Nope, just a muckraking republicant operative trying to do the same as Breitbart…only this time we ain't buying that crap. Editing is an amazing thing isn't it? You can make someone say whatever you want, but the key is the context, and that is where Breitbart & Okeefe screwed up and have lost all credibility, not only for themselves but for the conservative movement as well. Makes you folks look like idiots for believing that crap.
I do…Konservative Kool Aid is the best!
After all that talk of suing Breitbart, now he should sue her for defamation.
BTW, when was Sherrod a slave? When were her parents slaves? It's so insulting to the people who were slaves in the past as well as people who are enslaved now, such as the black Christians enslaved by black muslims in the Sudan, people who are trafficked as sex slaves, etc.
Let her sue. She's going to open a can of ugly, ugly worms for herself.
Based on the blizzard of troll posts I've been seeing lately, it would seem that the hard left has mobilized its battalions of flying monkeys and has sent them forth through their sally port to wreak havoc (too strong: annoyance) upon the blogs of those of us who wish to exercise our First Amendment rights.
This seems to me to be yet another small bellwether that they are getting edgy about the possibility of a significant change come November.
In fact, I think they would be secretly happy about that. They're never more deliriously happy than when they can once again assume the mantle of the oppressed and powerless; it legitimizes in the rabbit warrens of their indecipherable minds their shrieking and wailing from the rooftops and soapboxes.
The worst thing we can do to them would be to begin solving the problems this country has kicked down the road for the last generation or two. I cannot imagine a hard lefty without something to gripe about. They would no longer have a reason for being.
princess, you don't want to start playing the "i.q." comparison game with me or the vast majority of this site community.
This Isn't "Stormfront" despite YOUR prejudice in coming here merely to agitate and flap your gums. stfu, please.
BLT Black Liberation Theology will be Olinsky's unraveling.
Okay I called Senator Kip Bond, Senator Mccaskill and Congressman Roy Blunt's offices to get the full scoop.
the Supplimental Defense Authorization Act 2010 was up for a senate cloture vote yesterday-it did not pass and has been bumped back to the House-possibly in conference , maybe a vote next week.
The person who answered the phone is not sure how Bond voted and was prettty much clueless-he's due to retire so pretty useless -my guess is he voted against it if he was even there. McCaskill actually voted against cloture-she is against pork where defense is involved-contracts for defense etc. I agree with her vote but McCaskill is progressive scum 100%. She exudes all that is wrong with our system. they could not tell me much.
Blunt's office gave me the best info. HR 4899 is the Bill number. http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h11...
"Jul 22, 2010: Senate disagreed to the House amendment to the Senate amendment by Unanimous Consent."
from what Blunt's phone dude said-they have had issues with the BY 2010 Budget from Obama (go figure-DUH!) and all of the BY2010 Obama budget has NOT been approved.
I asked Blunt's assistant if the $1.15 BILLION for Pigford that was tacked onto the defense bill was in addition to the Obama $1.25 BILLION figure from his BY2010 or was it one and the same-lower figure.
He was not 100% sure on that one-but he looked it up and he said he thinks it is one and the same. So at least that is good news. Seems the $1.15 BILLION is a lesser number than the $1.25 BILLION that Obama suggested in his BY2010.
I can only find the votes from may and I could not find record of Cloture vote.
"Mau-mauing" No..no racists on this site.
Nah. I strongly suspect this troll hates crackers.
Wow, I was really feeling bad for Sherrod. Turns out she's an evil race-monger after all.
Linking to a video is not defamation, or youtube would have been closed a long time ago.
I've said it once and I'll post it again:
The NAACP needs to repudiate their association with Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. Farrakhan and the NOI has a well known reputation of promoting racial hate speech against white people, and particularly against the Jewish community. Also, Farrakhan has a affiliation with the Black Liberation Theologist, Jeremiah Wright, who has also a bigoted agenda preaching white hate speech and racism.
The racist Reverend Wright has also been a featured speaker at NAACP events, spouting the same messages as has fellow racist Islamist cleric Louis Farrakhan. So before Ben Jealous lectures Tea Party members about their "continued tolerance for bigotry and bigoted statements," he ought to pay more attention to his own organization.
It appears to me they took a page out of 'Race Baiting for Dummies'. They need to repudiate their association with the Nation of Islam and Jeremiah Wright, and discontinue their undignified practice of spreading false allegations of racism against the Tea Party movement. Until the NAACP issues a retraction and a apology, they must be held to the same standards as they demand upon the Tea Party.
I had lunch yesterday with two other friends who would be considered "right" and we were all in agreement that Sherrod was the victim. I sure don't feel that way today.
Great stuff, and great fun Andrew!
We can all rest knowing she is with her own kind now, and $13 million tax payer dollars in de facto reparations…is this a great country or what?
I wished I was in a bar.
I'm just hoping the evident instabilities in the IntenseDebate system of late do not result in the disappearance of their gems. Their posts stand as testament to the low-grade of mentation prevalent on their side.
Problem is, shooting fish in a barrel gets boring, after a while. Best to let them expire in their own excrement.
The whiney old bag is loving every second of this, the attention, the victimhood, the pity…
It's race card nirvana!
You know you’re over the target, when you start receiving flack…right on Andrew!
I'm betting that was Andrew's point. He showed her speech, showed the NAACP clapping and laughing, showed Obama throw her under the bus, showed Obama pick her up from under the bus, dust her off and giver her a Coke, and now he's showing how unhinged she and her friends are.
It's a freakin' brilliant maneuver.
Sherrod went from a person who is a racist (by her own admission in her own words) to a saint. Nothing has changed but the narrative. The facts (in this case her own words) speak for themselves.
The MSM is using the victim angle to change the narrative…Pigford investigation will speak leagues of how she was hired after sueing the USDA and then was hired all in a single quarter.
Every time I see your avatar I laugh a little, Sam Kinison was a hoot. I saw him with a couple friends, and he’d sold out a 5500 seat hall, funny as hell. Tried to see him once in NYC at Dangerfields, got Rosanne Barr instead, before she turned into the thing she is of late.
There is only one thing that I truly hate. Want to know what it is? I will say this to you. I have pity for your soul. You must have a bad life that you hate so much. You come here with vile hatred and wish ill of your country. You are pathetic just as your boorish progressive lot is. You do realize its over for your feckless group of traitors don’t you? Play the card but realize, there is only one in the deck and there appear to be many on the table. Run along now hapless fool before someone drops a house on you.
He didn't call her a racist he said "her racist tale" and it was a racist tale….she is also a white house appointee, don't know if that makes her a public figure and fair game though….the video were not totally misleading it showed that she had a change of heart and the article said the same thing…..all said the video was a mistake IMO.
I wonder why her talking about Obama and thanking him for his funding was cut from the transcript?? 39:45
I can see where this woman is and going and I say LET HER RUN WITH IT. Let Ms Sherrod keep talking, screaming, ranting about how much she hates Fox and Breitbart. Encourage her to do more interviews and she'll eventually reveal herself.
What sympathy she had, she's quickly losing.
Let us not forget that this monumental intellect and masterful rhetorician is the product of one of this countries premier (and I am proud to say, defunct) academic toilets, Antioch University in Yellow Springs, Ohio. For those unfamiliar with this untidy bowl of a college, it is the tank that featured cop killer Wesley Cook (AKA Mumia Abu-Jamal) as commencement speaker (via audio tape, nach, as he's on death row). It's also the water closet which flushed any remaining dignity when it enacted a sex contract policy.
And Yellow Springs, while retaining a few positive attributes, more or less limited to pizza and beer, is like a mini Berkeley. I swear, I once saw a female Antioch
studentdrone with a Holocaust-style buzz cut, wearing a potato sack for a blouse.I expect the environment was, if anything, more radical during her occupation of a seat there, as the student body has been in fairly steady decline for the past 20 years.
Ms. Sherrod, black people *already are* slaves for the most part: slaves to Leftist Ideology and to its most prominent platform, the Democrat Party. You are merely one of the New Slavery's overseers–advocating for the New Slave Masters, informing on those who are thinking of escaping to true freedom, and demonizing one of the advocates of abolition. Congratulations.
This woman is a bigger race pimp than Al Sharpton — maybe it's Sharpton in drag.
Dick Morris is right, she's going be Obama's new Rev Wright, not a black human shield to hide behind.
.
Just doing what I do best…airing the truth in front of a bunch of people who are so far gone from believing all the lies that they perpetuate amongst themselves daily….hard to swallow huh? No prejudice here as long as there's no prejudice there., but that isn't the case now is it? I'm always happy to play the iq game, especially to enlighten ignorance, whether it be liberal or conservative, republicant or democant…does not matter to me. Only truth, which both sides have a hard time with obviously.
Of course she'll sue, thats free money right there dog.
"There is only one thing that I truly hate. Patriot2Opine" UR pretty damned funny dude…a true hater saying they hate haters! you are NOT a patriot any more than anyone else. Just happy to be ignorant and fearful of the truth is more like it.
Your comment only holds water if 1) you think there's something wrong with staying in attack mode. PS Us conservatives are over constantly allowing libs/dims/socialists control the issues. We are, an will fight back and "attack" as you state and 2) you believe this was all to show Sherrod as a racist. It was to show the NAACP, it's members (and leaders) as racists. And so far, these past few days, with all the kooky comments from this group, it's done that in spades. Oh crap, can I say that without being labeled the dreaded racist. And another thing, with the term "Racist" being thrown about the way it has been lately by the MSM, minority groups and libs/dims/socialists, the term has lost its meaning and is going to be more of a badge of honor that reflects folks that don't submit to having their opinions dictated to them for "fear" of being labeled the dreaded racist word.
Are you really as stupid as you sound?
Baldilocks, that is rhetorical gold. I never thought in terms of releasing people chained to such a failed and self-defeating belief system, as a form of abolition.
Thank you!
BTW, I love your Twitter avatar.
But you never asked what it is that I hate. I just made a statement after I asked the question. Do you still want to know?
Stop scratching your head. You will make it raw.
Liver, I hate liver. I would starve to death and not eat it.
You see dipstick, you made an assumption based on what you wished I would say. You took something out of context. I know your tricks, twists and turns. I know your "Rules for Radicals" better than you do, as most of us here do. You are now in the real world. Do you wish to continue?
I agree this is turning into a nightmare, I keep looking for a positive sign in all of this. But at every turn it looks bad, the MSM have completly co-opt this and are using it to their advantage. They are bashing Breitbart, Fox and conservitives in general over the head with this. If this was a set up then Andrew needs to out the person, or at least give some details on how he came in upon the tape and how much of it there was. Or at least some reasurence that this was part of his plan. This sucks the week started out good but ended feeling like a real downer, I thought we won one but now it seems like we lost big time.
Have a nice day
Sharpton in drag
Oh great, my Johnny Walker Black bill is going to go through the roof now.
an edited and misleading one that is falsely used to try to ruin one's reputation would be considered defamation by most accounts. remember the truth is that was NOT the whole video and that part that was promoted here was not even a true sample….it was EDITED for someone's own purposes to try and DEFAME both her and the NAACP. Only this time you lost.
Blacks are slaves…..to the Marxist, Socialist, Communists that have enslaved them for over 150 years. http://www.modernhistoryproject.org/mhp/ArticleDi...
Re-post from earlier, please take this approach to these hateful smears of racism to heart…
"The foundation of racism and the smear of racism is the imposition of opinion and will.
The bogus smear of racism is being repeated on a daily basis against the TEA Party as a whole in order to empower the powerful to impose their will upon you.
They will repeat the bogus charge until either you start to agree with them or they convince enough useful idiots that the charges are true.
2 plus 2 equals 5….. see also George Orwell and Josef Goebels…
Remember these things the next time you encounter a troll here on the Big's that goes out of their way to label you as racist.
The charge of racism only has power and import when you give them the power to impose it upon you.
Do the right thing, flag them down, report them if needed and then walk away.
Don't play their pure power propaganda games. "
We are being played by the White House, NAACP and the DNC…
Don't fall into their trap, the left WANTS a civil war, that can be the only explanation for their irresponsible actions.
We are one dumb ass and two steps away from totalitarianism and the emperor in waiting is itching for an excuse to act upon his whims.
Slap these troll bitches down and refuse to play their division games.
I got "snookered" initially too. Turns out she's a run of the mill leftwing degenerate that squeals "racist!" in an attempt to silence opponents. She's a pig.
What's amusing is how the bedwetting leftwing imbeciles want Breitbart to apologize. For what, morons?? Playing video of a racist named Sherrod and exposing her? You leftwing swine would have loved nazi Germany or the former Soviet Union; no dissenting opinion and you could execute dissenters.
My God I cannot wait till November……………
The more you screech the more credible he is.
http://gatewaypundit.firstthings.com/2010/07/repr...
We want blacks to be slaves again? How unimaginative! Shirley, we no longer live in an agricultural society. Besides, that's what we have illegal immigrants for; a far better arrangement, since we don't have to clothe, house and feed them in the bargain.
But take heart, Ms. Sherrod! We can still find ways to put black people, or their children at least, to productive use! I have a modest proposal :
“I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.”
I understand that young black children are particularly tasty!
[/s]
No Miss Sherrod. What we all want is ALL AMERICANS (no damn hyphen) to be self sufficient and personally responsible for themselves and for what they aspire to. We are not heartless bastards, if for some tragic reason a person cannot (emphasis on cannot) work we as a society will be there for them.
"We are in possession of a video from in which Shirley Sherrod, USDA Georgia Director of Rural Development, speaks at the NAACP Freedom Fund dinner in Georgia. In her meandering speech to what appears to be an all-black audience, this federally appointed executive bureaucrat lays out in stark detail, that her federal duties are managed through the prism of race and class distinctions. "
And he was right. Her whole speech, given at a fundraiser for an organization devoted to entirely to racial issues, was about how race factored into her career.
But you forgot the rest of Brteitbart's statement:
"Eventually, her basic humanity informs her that this white man is poor and needs help."
How about that? You kind of left out the rest of Breitbart's statement in order to portray him as a racist.
Liberal hypocrisy knows no bounds.
Based on the blizzard of troll posts I've been seeing lately, it would seem that the hard left has mobilized its battalions of flying monkeys…."
Monkeys? MONKEYS???????
Racist!!!!!!
Free country my arse! Not according to my tax bill!
You wouldn't know the truth if it bit you in your dumbass, and NO you can't play the i.q.game here.
I haven't seen a single clue that makes me think you're nothing but garden variety troll. Weak and stupid, princess, weak and stupid.
I see weaklings like you in classrooms all the time. No reading investment – just Media Matters/MSM/Democrat Plantation supplied talking points.
Wizeup? hmm what a odd name for some own whose head is stuck in their own a**. I find it beyond hypocritical that a member of the so called enlightened liberal left would be so vile. Eh oh well, to bad for you libtards conservatives will win the day in November. While your crying for your mommies I'll be dancing naked in the street…well dancing anyway…well maybe not dancing either. Any way let me leave ya with this one SUCK IT troll and go back to your rock.
Oh and BTW she has no case for a Defamation suit I've talked to a couple lawyer friends of mine, unless she gets a lib activist judge. But then some where down the appeals line Breitbart would be cleared and this woman exposed for what she really is.
Have a nice day
Shirley Sherrod is a straight up racist "a little Garafaloaf lingo" race baiter!
But doesn't what she said about Fox news vindicate AB's point? She does see through a prism of race and class distinctions. And her audience agrees with it. Heck, the NAACP (Heck even the name of the organization is racist) condones it! They ought to rename themselves National Association for the Advancement of Equality if they weren't so intent on dwelling in the racist past.
Another troll from the Imbecilgensia!
Thanks for brilliant post tad pole
So she says, she is not a racist and has white friends?
What an absolutely moronic and bald faced lying statement. Andrew Breitbart made no such comments. The video never was about Shirley Sherrod, but instead about the members of the Georgia Chapter of the NAACP nodding, clapping and agreeing with her rant, of which was ample proof of racism.
Why did Andrew publish the video, was because the main body of the NAACP are accusing the Tea Party Movement of being racists, with no evidence to support their allegations. However, the Georgia tape proved Breitbart of being correct about the NAACP racism towards whites. And for some motivational reason, are asking their membership to pledge to be an "NAACP American," whatever that means?
http://i29.tinypic.com/2mesl8j.jpg
I thought we were one country, but apparently to the NAACP, we're not and are something else!
Unbelievable. You really know your stuff. Now we understand what's happening. Before Obama got in, we didn't have to be concerned with all of this, now we have to pay attention. Thanks BuddyTWD.
Well, if she wants to go to court then all her radical past should be put on parade. I don't think Obama really wants that, but this woman is out for money and fame, even though she is a racist. Her racism will continue to service and her radical ideas will too. She represents the NAACP pretty good, but then she is one of their kind. Breitbart is not one of her kind. I think that's the way she herself used those terms. Going after whitey is her pure religion, even if Breitbart didn't ask for her to be fired, others came up with that on their own, and the NAACP had all the tapes from the beginning.
Why is everybody getting on Breitbart's case here when all he did is jump at the opportunity to out a racist. It's not Breitbart's fault it turned out to not be true and it's damn sure not his fault he ended up looking like a horse's behind. Like my man Michael Savage said on the air the other day, Breitbart was set up by the Obama Administration!
I mean, let's face it, he's a journalist, just like James O'Keefe. What do you expect him to do? As a journalist, you can't always look into the backstories of every story you run…sometimes you gotta say, "Screw it" and go to print. Go to print first, ask questions last is motto we journalists live by.
So, leave Breitbart alone already! Don't shoot the messenger!
I expected a much quicker response from someone with such a high IQ.
Hmmm, did mommy Ariana or daddy George call you in for dinner? I’ll be here when your done in case you want to really discuss things instead of casting aspersion, conjecture and innuendo.
Yes and this woman has no hate.
I'm old enough to remember that "superior" tone, my grandfather among them. I can still hear it today in my dad, who lives with me. I also hear the stories, and I understand why some of it was there, and fear and ignorance was enough to do the rest, and that goes for both sides. But times have changed, and most people have changed their attitudes, most white people at least, except people like my dad who is basically removed from society and won't change anyway. People like her need to be outed, because HER tone was also one of superiority, something she exudes, yet condemns, with the same breath. The irony must be lost on her. The only way we'll get to a "Post Racial" anything is if EVERYONE stops talking about race, and realizes that they're hurting more than helping. Except, of course, when trying to describe someone, especially to the police, because it's hard looking for someone when you don't know if they are going to be black, white, brown, etc….you know, the REAL, RESPONSIBLE kind of profiling.
Then believing in the fearless leader makes people look like geniuses? The same fearless leader that has forced health care down our throats, financial reform, huge deficit spending, etc….. I will assume that you may not want to be lumped in with the fearless leader so why are you lumping every one here into one group?
Simple question: can only people of Anglo Saxon decent be racist?
Thou doth protest too much which tells me your the one who, while sitting on the crapper, fashions nooses out of kite string and muses on "the world that could be" if only you could have your way with Blacks and your toy hangman's noose.
I also noticed your conspicuous silence on pedophilia. What are you trying to hide?
BTW, why do you rape? No comment, huh?
Your silence is deafening.
Amen! If a white man was making a speech in front of the Chamber of Commerce, and used “his kind,” even in the most glowing parable on race relations, he’d be pilloried in the press, into absolute oblivion.
must be free troll Friday again
Naw, it's way stupider than what your read.
Could someone please show these trolls the door? If I wanted to read their lies and race-baiting I would head to their Un-American sites!
ROFLMAO! Sometimes children should not be allowed to play with computers without supervision.
She is a racism enabler, this is painful to watch. For those of us who ACTUALLY care about racial hate, this is a person who is a stereotypical racist enabler.
IT don't get any better than that
Man you can't make this $hit up
I love it
I do love a punching bag session occasionally but then you know that already. LOL
I also know you like to swipe the bag yourself every so often too.
The IQ thing set me off. I love it when these loons come off with high and mighty brilliance, just showing how little they really have. Ahhhh, is there any wonder why we are where we are?
You can sit down now Mr. Shirley. Your wife is a racist.
Yeah, telling the truth now is bothersome to the Left. It's almost comparable to throwing water on the witch in 'The Wizard of Oz' and watching her melt…
Catching up then?
It certainly didn't take the Obama Administration and the NAACP long to get old Shirley back on the reservation! The way she's treating Glenn Beck after he took her side in all of this kind of points towards her being racist if you ask me. Shuck and jive, Shirley! Tote that bale fo yo massa's in de Wite House!
Like I said before 13 mil. and counting
It is not swiping at them and making them a punching bag, it is that little hope I have of actually thinking that they will come to their sense's and make peace with reality.
Ah shoot who am I kidding, it is simple fun to play with people who can only think with their feelings and can not understand a rational thought if it bit them on the butt.
Airing the truth? Of what? A defamation suit? You get that off Huffpo?
Graduate from 7th grade and come on back for some more smackdown.
A whole new meaning to being "Swift Boated"
Please remember that we are dealing with an intellectual child here, it will take tremendous patients and caring to educate them to level of reality.
Andrew has brought something to the forefront that most may not have noticed. Watch the clip of Shirley giving her speech to the NAACP again – listen to those in the background cheering & laughing in agreement on how she treated a 'white farmer', before she gets to her point. Why give a speech highlighting the fact that there are not enough "people of color" working at the USDA, then point out that a "white man" killed her father. Sure she touched base on it being about the have's and have-nots. Resurface of the 'race card' is being brought forward by groups like the NAACP. There is one purpose to continue to dwell on the past, It's all about power & control by the corrupt elite – political gain. Discrimination we've seen in the past couple years come from, humm – the New Black Panther party and those alike.
Speeches like this are repulsive! What about Kings Dream!!! If she want's to go back in time way back to the 80's – I'd like to enlighten her on something. It happens in both directions! Being "white", living and attending schools in Baltimore is dangerous. Physically assaulted, chased and harassed daily which still occurs today. Way, way, way back in the 70's & 80's "white people" were beat, chased, harassed – fearful of not knowing if you would make it to or home from school. Further more, those "people of color" who mingled with "white people" are treated with the same violence. I do not see a "person of color" being rejected or harassed outside the inner cities, it's what King's Dream is all about!!
Deliberate division, reparations and redistribution of wealth. Shirley is right on one area, "Change" (not Obama's definition though) is needed – perhaps moving forward and not dwelling on what happened in the past. The first slaves on our soil were "Native" – not African. History is twisted & inaccurate to fit the selfish needs of others. The constant inaccuracy of Obama being the first "black" in the W.H. is WRONG! He is biracial & is NOT the first biracial to occupy the W.H. His parentage is biracial. He is 50% white, 43.75% Arab "Muslim" & 6.25% Black = His father was from Kenyan – NOT a US Citizen, from the Lou Tribe which were/are Arab.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." – Martin Luther King, Jr.
I use liberal amounts of toilet paper to wipe my ass. Damn, that didn't hurt at all.
…and she is a racist. Ever read or watch something other than Rosie?
Isn't this woman's 30 minutes of fame up yet?
Come back in several months and we can enjoy making fun of you…on this very website.
Well said Mark
Why they "Will not" (can not ?) uderstand this amazes me
Would that be a token "white" friend
It is out of their coveted book after all and perhaps with all those heads blowing up, some of us will have jobs doing clean up. di_da is wise and alpha.
You must have slept through life, or just have some free time before you redo 7th grade.
Notice how among the 24/7 MSM coverage of Sherrod, there is no mention of the her $13 million shake-down law suit against the American taxpayer. No wonder why Sherrod is Obama's dream girl.
I'd say Sherrod was a lot smarter than you then. She won't want her past drug up when she has already taken $13 million from US taxpayers.
For a second there, I thought you had been taken over by an alien or something. LOL
I only poke at the mean ones.
Last time I was at a Tea party and looked around, I'd have to say that all of America was there too waving signs and having fun…something you libs just can't seem to do.
Ezra Klein — so nice to hear from you Ez. Let’s get on the phone with Yglesias, Tomasky and Ackerman and make up some dirt on Cheney. C’mon guys…Krugman says he will back it up and I got the OK from Gibbs.
And AC is with us, as always (my favorite teabagger)
"your like" That's kind of a racist term like "your kind." Hung any Blacks lately? Or have you been too busy screwing little boys?
Oh, I've been trying to build up resistance. But short of taking an angle grinder to my corpus callosum, there are some mental images which require liberal servings of brain wipe.
Speaking of Rachel Maddow…
(pour)(pour)(pour)
I can see you only have one news source.
Shirley is obviously a racist making racist remarks again.
November 2nd = EJECTION DAY.
"Go to print first, ask questions last is motto we journalists live by. "
That may be how we ended up where at now
Chils,
Shouldn't you be gearing up for the "Free Gaza" rally?
Are being racist or profiling by only poking at the mean ones?
Why do you see racism everywhere you look? Do you obsess THAT much on hanging Blacks? What do you do with little boys and sheep when you're done with THEM? Why all the hate?
Sherrod's only reputation was that of a racist, so I do not think she is suffering. The left will embrace her, use her for their purpose and then toss her under the bus…again.
It's the liberalism is a mental disease thing that has you flumoxed. The insidious thing about the disease is that it makes you think you know something you don't.
He would be crucified, or "Journolisted."
ROTFL It probably is Rosie. Hey, Rosie, molested any of those children you adopted, lately? Just askin', sheesh, don't tear my Twinkie off.
Hey she hates getting caught
Anderson Cooper was the first to denegrade half the American population with his term "teabagger".
Shamefully, this poor excuse of a journOlist, did not even call Sherrod out when she said the the Breitbart wants black to be slaves again. That ludicrous and hateful comment went unchallenged.
She seems bent on tarnishing most of the goodwill given her during this craziness. I watched Fox that day and Glenn Beck, all he did was defend her and ask for more info. How can she continue to villify people who weren't envolved in her ordeal. Seems to take back the points she'd made previously. I'm tired of seeing her pop up on every channel.
Elementary schools are out for the summer…
Follow the money, see how many of her relatives and non-white friends got Taxpayer money on this Pigford deal.
It is frightening to see how one person in the media could have thrown the White House for a loop. However influential Fox news and Breitbart may be, they should be of little or no concern to a genuine leader who knows what is currently at stake for our nation's future. The focus of this story should be how the Leader of the Free World and his Administration could be so intimidated by the folks at Fox (in particular Glenn Beck who they apparently thought might run a story about the incident), that they could rush to a faulty and rash judgment without first gathering all the facts. This is the bigger story here and a cautionary tale. Without common sense, but instead a desire to protect themselves and initially disassociate from Ms. Sherrod, they acted erratically. Enemies of America have again seen how easily misguided and manipulated are this President and his pals. Breitbart should be commended for illustrating without any doubt, that this is an unwise and dangerous Administration. Otherwise, they would have endeavored to do the right thing from the start with deliberation and care, rather than turning a potentially inconsequential blip into a major debacle.
What has Breitbart ever done for black people? Well, for one thing, he offered to donate $100K to the United Negro College Fund if only someone would prove that a few Congressmen were telling the truth.
LOL Almost couldn't pronounce that–pheeeww! We know what THAT would have meant.
I bet there were lots of hispanics, native americans and african americans there too huh? or don't they count?
I happen to think Andrew did a public service in a back handed way. If this incident creates more caution in newsrooms and amongst the political class about reacting to incendiary situations before all facts are in, that'd be great.
luckily no doors on the interwebs
learn to spell….anyone can be racist, most of the tea baggers happen to be white.
Consider using the caps lock button. You'll find it reduces shrillness.
"I just made a statement after I asked the question. Do you still want to know? " You started with that statement , it was not posed as a question…the question came after you said you hate….which I believe you do, along with most others on this site….quite a big bunch of crybaby haters.
not very bright .. I want to know how you sue the USDA and win $300,000 and then get hired by the USDA ???
No there were not, however, it was open to all. Maybe the message of honest work and no more freeloading wasn't the message they wanted to hear.
Hey Sherrod; there is nothing worse than a fool; except a fool that is front and center such as you.
Where did CNN put her office cube at?
doesn't surprise me that you are obsessed (& affiliate yourself) with Pedos. you are a pretty sick puppy so….keep up the crazy references they make you look mahvelous baby!
we'll see when the chips and dust & all settle…bet that a suit gets filed though, no matter what you & your like say. Say all you want but the court will decide if she does.
yep…stupid enough to be here po'ing you fearmongering jokers off!
and it's not here thankfully.
There's that racist "you and your like" thing again. Hung any Blacks lately? Not because you didn't want to, I suspect. Do "your kind" always make racist statements like that?
Oooh, reflection–didn't see that coming. I didn't know some of you could also read. Soros has upped the ante. How many notches do you have in your noose?
Not w/o a bio-hazard suit.
You ain't po'ing off anyone, just making us laugh at your sheer stupidity. Keep it up! We need all need a good laught in this "recovery summer".
You ain't poing off anyone, just making us laugh at your sheer stupidity. Keep it up! We need all need a good laught in this "recovery summer".
She thinks AB wants to go back to the slave days…. or she wants to keep whites slaves to the Racist card.
This was going to happen. The race-baiter in Ms. Sherrod has been revealed. Sad, and sickening to watch.
Yeah, no sense on being correct at this point in your life.
Have you attended a tea party or are you listening to what the media tell you ?
Is there a club for racists? Do these clubs sell memberships? Do you have a Constitution or do you just open each meeting with a Pledge of Allegiance to George Wallace and Robert Byrd and a "Sieg Heil?" Do they sell little gold tie tacks configured like nooses? Inquiring minds want to know.
So let me get this straight a tape owned by the NAACP is leaked and cropped to make her look like a racist. The white house forced her to resign Glenn Beck and Rush limbaugh stood up for her. But Brietbart is the enemy?? You know what Miss Sherod you allready are a slave. You've enslaved yourself to the progressives. You wont even return the phone calls of men who stood up to you because you want to be in good grace with the progressives. You make me sick. You embrace the group that turned its back on you who I might add only turned and embraced you because people on the right took your side. Now you turn your back on them. You are a coward and a tool of the left. TOOL that is all they will soon forget you and leave you to rot and you deserve it.
Amen again!
Be quick to listen, slow to speak.
I score that a win for KS and P2O….You really didn't have to work to hard for that red flag…..Did you?…
Why did you capitalize pedo? It's not a proper noun but rather an abbreviation of a technical term. Did you capitalize it because, for you, it is a religion? Do you hang the little boys, too, when you're done with them? Why all the hate for Blacks and children? Are you doing unto others as you would like for them to do unto you? If so, YOU'RE the sick puppy.
And any neo-Communist can be an idiot – like you, for example. Learn to think before criticizing anybody else's spelling, turd.
Better run along now. Comrade Clueless in the Oval Office is handing out more Stimulus checks to all the good little useful idiots. You don't want to miss out, do you?
Bullshit. Wishful thinking doesn't make it so, Regressive.
blah blah……….they know (nacacp, nbpanthers, dems and bo) they "jumped the shark" on this one…………….but now they get dangerous………they will need to "manufacture" some violence to keep it going, and ya better believe they will
George Soros and Comrade Clueless of the Oval Office pay these trolls by the word. Stupid makes them rich, you know. What else explains King Narcissus and the First Clydesdale making $5.5 million last year?
So what? If obfuscation and misrepresentation were crimes, we could simply build a 50-foot wall around Washington and imprison every one inside for a very long time. Even if he's guilty as charged, AB isn't the first commentator or politician to take this low road, and he definitely won't be the last.
The clock is at 14:45 and counting.
Yes because you are a legal genius.
Yep……
Posting that video of Sherrod owning up to past racist acts to the delight of her NAACP audience is just part of his elaborate plan for the re-institution of slavery.
I'm no doctor but I believe there is medication out there that would help this poor crazy women.
You're a censorship NAZI. Ja vol Herr college kid DOLT. Free speech for thee but not for me? Typical progressive NAZI. You wanna march to kill babies you don't "like" and goose step at the "dance club" tonight?
Typical liberal KKK RACIST LIAR.
I stopped worrying about that in 88 when I wasted my vote on Jesse Jackson in the primary. After that, hell to what others think, they don't know what's in my heart.
Nah, no one wants our black friends to be slaves again.
But we will not play your dirty little reindeer games. We will not take the bait.
Remember November.
Personalitist. Aw, who am I kidding, that would be accurate and true. They don't do that so why should we have to? You're right, mijowi, you're a racist.
) I apologize for the momentary lucidity that never occurs to LefTards.
One thing President Sanford has done is embolden all these quota moochers. No one with a brain could watch the full speech she gave and not know she is a racist. Glad when the next crisis hits so this thief can go back to stealing from the taxpayers and get off the TV.
"I love it when these loons come off with high and mighty brilliance, just showing how little they really have."
And don't they love to do that? I'm sure it's meant to be a tweaker but. . .I can't say that, whenever I'm dealing with these people, the words "rocket scientist" ever come to mind. That little booger-eater, yesterday, PimpleBarn, or something like that had its smarm, snark, sarcasm, and condescension turned up pretty high.
She said she was "doing research" yesterday but what she didn't say was it was opposition research. Look what I just found–wondered why I hadn't seen her today:

Thank you for posting these videos!
Sherod is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory with her stupid comments. Someone should tell her to sit down and shut up.
At first I thought she had been unjustly attacked. Now I know she only wants to assist Obama in his efforts to create racial hatred.
It could be that she thinks she will be able to put her foot on the neck of lower income people, both black and white. Good luck! and may you reap nothing but misery and failure in your efforts to profit off this incident.
Andrew was right, you are a bad person.
I couldn't agree more with Mrs Sherrod. All the republican party and it's elk has to sell is "Fear and Hate". When was the last time we got a terror rating? Bush was in office right? Repubicans know that most of their base as these racist thoughts in their mind and all they have to do is trigger the thought via Limbaugh, Hannity or any other hit man or women and the dogs will come a hawling. It like those terrorist sleeper cell. They act normal and get along in society until their the bell rings that make them go stupid!!! Same thing with the republicans and their followers. The minute the republicans lose the white house they start ginning up the converation about guns and the constitution and the dogs start barking.
Shirley…those were your words…your buddies laughed…you're a racist.
Slaves. Who'd want one, even if it were legal and <gulp> moral? Simply too much trouble. Wouldn't take one on a bet. And why is that (some) blacks think everything revolves around BLACK, BLACK, BLACK? Most white people can go days, weeks, without ever even thinking about blacks or blackness or racism. How pathetic that so many blacks seem to have their lives dominated by the concept and the manufactured victimhood arising out of it. Very sad. And very racist, too.
Oops. Forgot. wizeup, you are a moron. Now take your meds like a good fellow and go and watch some TV.
When I lived in Germany, the choice was CNN and BBC America. I took BBC. Not the greatest, but at least an outside view of America as opposed to an insular one.
Yup. If Obama was a white guy, conservatives would all be liberal democrats.
"get ready for payback time…hope your cash stack is big"
you hope Andrew wins alot of money right?
BIGmoney.com
Sooo she just went back to the argument that its all because the President is Black?!?
Wow, just wow. How many circles has the administration done in the past few days on this issue?
Everything she said in those videos was racist, it was fully in context. Rough quote from memory: "This is not about black and white anymore, well it is about black and white but also its about those who have and the poor." That quote says that they are only laying down their racism to agree with socialism, but that when they have that (socialism), racism will be their priority.
A good read and it sounds like a NON PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRAT!

There is something wrong with this whole tape business….the second tape is completely different from the first, and I would never have come out of my mouth as did this woman, she has no business running any department of our government. She is a racist, weither it was last year or yesterday….she still is. And worse, the war now for her is the ones who have and the ones who donot….now we can get into serious reasons why that is…starting with the democrate party.
Our country has been set back to maybe the 60s over race. It is sad and ridiculous at the same time. Has the NAACP documented their proof of racism against the Tea Party attendees yet? Shirley is becoming a bit less folksy on this vid.
LOL I just caught up on this big old thread and it appears the Progressives are getting a bit scared as we show them that the RACIST deck of cards is WORN OUT!!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA
ROCK ON CONSERVATIVES
PACK SAND Liberals, Democrats, Progressives, Changlings etc…
And for cryin out loud……they PRIDE themselves on their BIG RED FLAG. Quit givin them POINTS! DON'T EVEN REPLY TO THEIR THREAD. POST BELOW IT.
AS IT IS THEY LOOK LIKE THE ONLY PLACE WORTH BEIN ON THIS WHOLE THREAD!
THIS IS PURE SUCKER BAIT. LET THEIR IDIOT REMARK SIT!
HOLE IN THE FRIKKIN WIND! NADA! ZIP! ZILCH!
If you say it often and loud enough you can believe and once you believe you are entitled and once you are entitled you demand and once you demand you get. What they fail to understand is you can't get what we aint got. It is all gone and China soon comes a calling.
What a disappointment, she does not get it at all. So much for her redemption. It is the racist talk that brought about her unfortunate experience, or was it all staged, I am beginning to wonder. It was the lying congressman who said he was called the N word 15 times and spat on, the black panther's not being prosecuted, and the left delighting in destroying anyone that stands in the way of their Marxist agenda with false racist accusations that played a huge role in what happened to Shirley, and now she joins in, go figure.
Go back to the Daily Kos for a group hug and a lollipop to go with your KOOL-AID. It is RED today.
EXCELLENT!!!

"Sherrod: Breitbart Wants Blacks to Be Slaves Again"
More accurately, New Mouseketeer Sherrod, the Democratic Party has yet to free the blacks of this country and most blacks willingly remain enslaved.
She's on to Breitbart's double super secret plan to repeal the 13th Amendment! And he'd have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddlers at the USDA!
Oh missy,
I don't mean you. I just shamelessly piggy backed off your post cause it was high on the list, lol.
But I do think folks here need to quit feedin the trolls on stories like this. It's not like they care what we think. So why should we? Just breeze past like they never happened.
btw try to catch my post on WHAT TO DO WITH A ROGUE LAME DUCK CONGRESS on a couple of threads here. It's a brilliant strategy Krathammer devised and a wicked weapon. Brings a whole new definition to ROCK MEET HARD PLACE.
I have no doubt whatsoever that Obama recruited her during his phone conversation with her (apology) to play this role and crank up the heat. Another O-bot ready willing and able to fall before the Emporer and kiss his stinky feet.
I hope that she is stupid enough to fight AB in court.
Thanks, Docneaves – your last point is one of my head-shaking bug-bears (the "no racial profiling" mantra), frisking old ladies from Sioux City in an airport line, while a 26-year-old middle-eastern male paying cash for a one-way ticket,, wearing a Ninja mask and suicide vest is waved through without a question or arched eyebrow. It's insanity!
About Shirley Sherrod: While I didn't find any real fault with her demeanor in the original NAACP-speech tapes (premised on her relating an old incident to make a point about growth and gaining insight and awareness), her subsequent expressions do show clear bias — not necessarily racist, but they are a race-baiting variety, aimed at smearing apparently those not in lockstep with the Progressive agenda (Fox News, Breitbart).
The problem is, most of the left (like Sherrod) and some on the right are bringing a racial focus where it doesn't belong, to something that is ideological and political, and that is creating racial strife where there should be none as well as picking at the scabs on old wounds. I think that's a very dangerous game.
For this person (Sherrod) to call someone else racist is like an elephant saying a gazelle is overweight. NAACP is the new "Klan with a Tan".
I just watched BOR. Bernie Goldberg and BOR say you (Breitbart) share some of the blame for this whole incedent. Dana Perino and the Lib Radio Talker said Breitbart was no hero either. I am amazed.
Breitbart aired Sherrod's statements to expose bigotry by the NAACP. Breitbart achieved what he set out to do and now gains the ire of FOX? Breitbart never put any words into Sherrod's mouth. You should be hailed as a hero.
The losers in all this are:
BOR
FOX's credibility
Shirley Sherrod
NAACP
MSM
Where have I gone wrong with this?
Silencing of the Truth Tellers
The NAACP posted the following on their website: The video of Shirley Sherrod released by Andrew Brietbart's Big Government Blog on July 19 didn't tell the full story. It was selectively edited to cast her in a negative light. Andrew Breitbart is being portrayed as a villian in this incident because he posted the video on his website. Breitbart said the Shirley Sherrod video was about the NAACP not her. He said the NAACP called the Tea-Party Protesters racists and are still saying some black Congressman were called the N-word at the Capitol during the healthcare protest. These are false claims and Breibart has a $100,000 reward for any video proof of the allegations. No one has collected the reward, even though Jesse Jackson Jr. video-taped the walk.
People are claiming the Sherrod video was taken out of context; that Sherrod was talking about a parable that changed her viewpoint on race relations. The video was from a speech Shirley Sherrod made on March 27, 2010, at the 20th Annual NAACP Freedom Fund Banquet. In it she says, …“The first time I was faced with a having to help a white farmer save his farm…
…He took a long time talking, but he was trying to show me he was superior to me…But he had to come to me for help…What he didn’t know was …I was trying to decide how much help to give him.” (laughter) Although, the context of what Shirley was saying was not yet revealed,the crowd started laughing. I believe what Breibart was trying to say was that the video was about the NAACP and their reaction of laughter when she made the statement.
In the same speech Sherrod said, “I haven’t seen such mean-spirited people as I’ve seen lately over this issue of healthcare. Some of the racism we thought was buried; didn’t it surface. Now we endured eight years of the Bushes and we didn’t do the stuff these Republicans are doing because we have a black President.” Because you oppose Obama’s radical policies in his efforts to “spread the wealth,” you are called a RACIST…
…On July 22,2010, Shirley Sherrod was on the John King show on CNN. King asked her, “If you had 30 seconds with Andrew Breitbart, what would you say?” Sherrod responded, “I’d tell him he’s a lie. He knew exactly what effect that would have on the conservative racist people he’s dealing with. That’s why I started getting the hate mail and hate calls.”
The Obama Administration, Statists, NAACP and the so-called Main-Stream Media want to marginalize and silence the Tea-Party movement, Andrew Breitbart, Fox News and Glen Beck with false claims of racism and telling lies. Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels said, “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”

At first I saw Shirley Sherrod as a sympathetic figure, that her words were taken out of context.
Then I heard the whole tape, and listened to her own words out of her own mouth on matters such as Breitbart, racism, equal treatment under the law, etc.
Now, I know she is little more than a mere stereotype of an uppity Sunday-come-to-meeting trash-talking racist snot.
She *may* have had an initial beef with Brietbart, but everything she's said and done since has been an attempt to gain a national stage for her sorry butt and her *typical* black racist mantras.
Andrew Breitbart has a beef against her, now.
Shirley, get back on the porch.
What an incredibly stupid thing to do. Its like our liberals, even when handed a perfect opportunity, still can't help but blow it.
I would say profiling.
Hmmm…it seems we've been visited by one of the more educated Constitutional scholars from the democrat platform committee, or at least by one of the MSM's experts on the Constitution and Bill of Rights. What chils just said is an extremely concise description of their collective program.
There was no clear cut defamation, you toad. If anything, Breitbart can bury a defamation hatchet in her faux-long-suffereing @ss. You smell of race-baiting, no-account, field rat, unschooled ignorance. The bitch, wizeup, is your nappy-haired Momma, and the horde of sweaty, grunting belly-lifters she sleeps with.
And there you have it. That social little butterfly. How sweet. I bet mommy Ariana is proud of her little pod.
"Sherrod: Breitbart Wants Blacks to Be Slaves Again."
Sorry Shirley, that old shit used to work back when, but today, the people are onto you. You should have stopped while you were ahead. Bernard Goldberg sized you up right, when he stated, a few days ago, you didn't know who Andrew Breitbart was, and today, somehow your crystal ball's telling you that (gag) he "wants blacks to be slaves again…one big PFT lady!
I'm posting this link in the various threads that deal with race on the Breitbart blogs. This is an important statement, made more so because it comes from a credible Senator (Please no comments about his being a Dem. He's someone a lot of Virginians respect). He's saying something that should be a central issue in the alleged debate on racism that is taking place in the land. No doubt AG Holder doesn't think highly of this opinion but I'm very glad Webb had the chutzpah to come out with it: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703...
That's exactly what I have been saying about interacting with the trolls for a long time…
You mean like the edited video of a black man with an AR-15 slung around his shoulder, but MSNBC saying it was a white racist??? If one is defamation, so is the other and vice-versa. You fail.
and http://www.huffingtonpost.com/social/veteranameri...
If I didn't have so much I needed to do tomorrow, I'd look up a bunch more of these loons.
shhhhh. The adults are talking now.
geez will this ever end? racism is alive and well and wearing a black face in America
Those must be pretty special folks there. I wonder if they have to pass a test of loyalty to ignorance before they are allowed out. You know, commit certain talking points to memory and such. They have to get their buffoon badges before public displays.
Wait for it, it will come. I'm rubber you're glue…
LMAO! You conservatives are such clowns. Yes, your dumb web-site got caught red-handed misinforming to the American people. Just admit it and move on, like Fox News has recently done. You idiots wouldn't know a critical thought if it slapped you across the face.
Uh-oh! Don't press "dislike", tea partiers. That would really hurt my feelings! LOL!
Oh my gawd mark! You have to pay taxes?!?! GASP! LOL! Slap yourself in the face.
Just let her keep talking CNN, she'll make you look stupid before she's through… There was an agenda here and she's a big player in it… Can't wait to see the money she will roll in after she sues the government this time…
Wizeup, douchebag. Your proctologist called. He found your head.
How can a racist organization like the NAACP and a racist like Sherrod be "defamed"?
Hey Tex,
Been missin you. You must be busy.
I don't mind some of the "red flag" crowd. They have things to say and we need to be challenged now and again. But you can tell when they're just chumin to get a rise outta folks and that's just a dead ender, to me.
Say how's Perry farin. I know his numbers took a hit over immigration but I can't see the Dem being better….not for Texas anyway. What's your take?
"…quite a big bunch of crybaby haters."
So there. Nyah nyah nyah. Gawd, are you still stuck in the first grade?
This woman is absolutely bonkers with blame projection.
She’s lashing out at Fox News and Breitbart for pointing out her own statements.
Let Shirley run that tent flap mouth of hers all she wants. Every time she does, another indication of her Angela Davis side comes pouring out.
The best disinfectant is sunlight. We intend to shine a lot of light on Shirley and the rest of the race-baiting lowlifes.
What a magnificently ignorant fat pile of black shite.
Thanks, Breitbart. Coward where you hiding….you do know this is boomerangin on you, right? I mean look at the white farmer coming to her aid. Love it! Her credibility isn't shot at all..Actually its funny as I watch Fox news in Georgia running segment showing that she has earned a good vacation and will be going "fishing" (country term) with the white farmer who you said she spoke ill of. Poetic Justice. Cherry on top: Defamation Lawsuit!
Misinforming, with her own words? Your proctologist called. He found your head.
Oh we wouldn't want to hurt your feelings, douchebag.
Post of the day ROTFLOL…………….a thing of pure beauty TGS
No, Andrew doesn't want black to be slaves. His sin is
much worse. He's a metaphor for the problem with the
Republican Party today. They've been hijacked by
opportunist and grafters; snake oil salesman! And the
Republican Party needs to wake up before they become
the Regional Party, aka, the South!
Let me give you a few key Republican FUBARs from history.Please Repeal these before repealing Obama's
1. Richard Nixon-Took our dollar (money) off the gold standard. Also got in bed with Kaiser Foundation for
healthcare..what came out of that (HMOs).
2. Reagan signing of 1986 Tax Reform Act. For those of you who hate taxes UNLESS you are over 300K you didn't benefit from this at all. The made all employees/Self Employed people be on the hook for
taxes. You have no real deductibility unless you have "children" or own a home (mortgage interest deductibility)-no other country has this one. He removed rental payment, credit card interest from the equation another assault on those in the middle class and Self Employed Small Business Owner. Now if you
are Big Business or Investor you made off like fat cats. Most Businesses EARN, SPEND and TAX on what's left (so let's break even or make a profit; then come up with another way to offset income). While the employee/Self Employed are ONLY allowed to EARN, then BE TAXED, and learn to LIVE off what remains after Taxes. Wow, and that was a Great President?? to the wealthy for sure.
3. Bush Tax Cuts, 2 unfunded, mandated WARS for what? Nothing, we didn't loot their Treasury, the $10B in currency is still missing and you guys are arguing over a little old Lady's comments about a white farmer who came to appreciate each other. Sad state of affairs for our country. And you represent a "Think Tank"?
4.Arguing over Obamacare as you call it when we've been giving FREE healthcare to IRAQIS since the war
has begun.
Finally a sane voice in the madness. Truth, how refreshing!
richardporter, I think you're being a little harsh: what's 14 million between friends?
Picture this scenario:
A white politician stands up in front of a crowd of constituents, and says:
"The first time I was faced with having to help a BLACK farmer save his farm, he took a long time talking but he was trying to show me he was superior to me. I know what he was doing, but he had come to me for help. What he didn’t know while he was taking all that time trying to show me he was superior to me was, I was trying to decide just how much help I was going to give him.”
“I was struggling with the fact that so many WHITE people had lost their farmland, and here I was faced with having to help a BLACK person save their land. So I didn’t give him the full force of what I could do.”
How fast do you think the NAACP, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Julian Bond, Morris Dees, Obama, and the whole conglomeration of outraged, indignant, holier-than-thou, "certain ethnic" community would take to the streets, screaming "RACISM!!" at the top of their lungs?
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Pure Black Liberation Theology………..nothing less!
I want to see her tax returns, personal and for every entity she and/or her husband and children participate.
If Mr Breitbach had not surfaced a doctored video, Obama wouldn't have had the opportunity to have her play the race card. Breitbach is a bone-headed slanderer.
Shirley, your ignorance is breathtaking. I can see from you sharp commentary that you have read many of Andrew Breitbart's posts in order to have come to such an accurate knowledge of his deep seated racial issues.
Good luck with that lawsuit btw, libel suits are almost impossible to win. First you'll have to prove that it was BigGov that "edited" the video. Meanwhile you're making the rounds like a media whore (to all the liberal media outlets that is) slandering Breitbart!
Oh, and Glenn Beck defended you.
We're his enemy; the race card is thought as a ticket to power over his enemy; I dare say it'll only get worse.
spot on oblows, crank it up a notch……….mm mm mm
SSsssshhhh……..quiet, 76……..she's the gift that keeps on giving!
The more Sherrod talks, the loonier she becomes. Breitbart reported the facts, and now all Sherrod and the NAACP can do is twist & spin.
Pathetically, the Race Card players have even gone so far as to blame Fox News. When the fact is the Obama Administration threw Sherrod under the Bus before Fox News even reported the story.
(How come Sherrod isn't condemning those who threw her under the Bus? Perhaps, because she has been promised something?)
Moving on:
Sorry, Race Card players, but you falsely played the card far too many times. The Race Card is now worn out and nobody takes your cries of Wolf seriously.
Go ahead, keep falsely calling those on the Right Racist, it is now becoming a Trophy. Because we know when Liberals-Democrats, NAACP, Obama, & the likes of Sherrod play the Race Card; it is a feeble act of desperation on your parts. You have lost the discussion, you have lost your case, you have plain lost; having nothing more, and another Trophy goes on the bookshelf.
Like any good lib she can smell the green stuff. Sue sue sue.
To think I actually felt sorry for this woman at first. She is milking this for everything its worth,and I no longer feel even a little bit sorry for her . sheesh, talk about Prostituting yourself. Next shes gonna Write a book and sell the movie rights and she wont need that cushy Govt Job.
What a racist moron!! It's obvious now that this whole thing was a set up to bring down Breitbart, Fox news and all of the rest of the real americans who love this country. You scum bag liberals are the slime of the earth and will pay the price in the long run!!
It is amazing to see the amount of RACISTS on this site.
Dear Mr, Brietbart and his stupid supporters,
You can hide all you want and lie all you want but it just shows the nasty agenda of you freaks!
I have looked at this man Brietbart LIE and tell so many different stories eg. (1) at one time he recieved the entire tape, (2) another time he received a snippet, (3) got it in March, (4) got it in April, (5) was about NAACP and Sherrod, (6) next time it was the crowd,, etc etc he is such a LIAR.
How can you people who support this guutersnipe and will go to church to play Christians on Sunday, support this type of behavior day in day out.
Where was your damn voices when BuSh was giving the country the Royal Flush. Maybe it is a good thing he was not black!!!???***@@@
His accomplice- FoxNews and Hannity and Coulter—we expect nothing less- they are Supreme Liar so he was in good company.
It is a shame that after eight years of destruction that this CREEP is a "celebrity" when the President has to deal with left-over CRAP from Bu$h.
People get a life!
All I can say is that I hope for all the worst for Brietbart and people of his ilk.
You will be surprised in November. Mark my word. America is greater than this and as much as people of your type is not want America needs at this time to move forward.
You damn racist!
My hope is that you go bankrupt.
Hey wizeup! You be stupid!
It's liberalism both black & white that keep them on the plantation. Not Fox or Breitbart!! Wake up people, you have been used for decades. Drop the pride and see the reality of what's going on around you.
http://biggovernment.com/mzak/2010/07/16/the-ku-k...
Hahahahaha! I'm sorry, but that rant was hilarious! Bwhahahaha! No seriously. You should do stand up or something…wow.
Good one. If they paid Dalibama by the word he would have made about $13 million last year. If he got paid for keeping promises, telling the truth, and actually doing something other than talking, he would have only made about $2.18. That's not enough for halters, blankets and oats for the First Clydesdale.
Just how does that work? We don't have slavery in this country anymore, Shirley. It's illegal. Remember?
So Shirley, tell us. How exactly do you think Andrew would ever be able to make sending blacks into slavery happen? Who are these slaves going to be working for, Shirley? How does that even work?
You do know you sound ridiculous, don't you Shirley?
Wake up you foolish liberals!! You have all been fooled by the media and the lies through out the decades. Just accept reality.
http://biggovernment.com/mzak/2010/07/16/the-ku-k...
Sooo Sherrod is being offer a civil rights czar position within the USDA-this woman is the poster child for Pigford cases-she will approve all the Track B claims no matter what facts may dictate-this will cost over a trillion when all is said and done.
Question was Sherrod speaking at NCAAP event because she was a high ranking employee/appointee of the USDA OR was she speaking because she was THE LARGEST AWARD in the Pigford I lawsuit.
inquiring minds want to know.
In the name of social justice, i want to know.
So anybody got a line on the flyer they used to advertise her speaking engagement?????
seriously this woman is a hero to the Pigford claimants.
Go away you brainless twit!!
Shirley is just being vicious!
And your dumber than big eared Barry!!
$13 million-Sherrod and her husband got a big chunk of that $13 million.
She started her communal farm on grants-and according to her they had counted on more funding from grants-BUT the governor of Georgia at the time cut those grant programs (probably for something silly like balancing the state budget)
So USDA turns them down for a loan?
Would you give a loan to business that has NEVER made a profit??? Isn't that why we got into the mortgage mess-government forcing banks to give loans to people who had 450 credit score??????
Over $4 million of that lawsuit was for "projected lost income" as a result of denial of USDA loan.
So HOW can a farm that has never made a profit and is dependent upon GRANTS to even get started loss that which it never had????
dang it..this just does NOT make economic sense in the real world.
"I hate liver" Just as well. Full of "B" vitamins but, unfortunately, cholesterol, too.
My sentiments exactly even though I haven't acted much like one today. I don't think this sharing the gutter with them is going to work for me.
Do you wear a hood burns1?
What is your point.?
Where does your point carry forward the good of America? Don't you feel dumb!
Don't you people tire of crap day in day out?????
Buffoon badges. LOL. Were it not for the adults on here, I probably would be wondering if I was even on the same planet on which I was born. I think I'm starting to get a sense of what Alzheimer's is like.
oh that's some edumacated words there manu chao…
i love the cogent discourse on these hate baiting sites…
A fairy special dance club at that.
me or da judge
Repeat it often and loud, Herr Kommandant.
"But at every turn it looks bad, the MSM have completly co-opt this and are using it to their advantage."
Wow, really? The MSM is completely bankrupt, and they are allied with Sharrod – a loony racist. I don't think that's negative actually. AB and Big Gov are just out there fighting the good fight – sure the loonies in the MSM are going to try to spin it – but they're spitting into a headwind and it's hittin' em in the face right now.
well then we're all laughing our asses off now then aren't we?
you always come up with the best stuff idi.
Buddy, did these farmers actually plant and harvest a crop? Did they at least "look" like they made an effort? Juging from what I see, it looks like a shake down scam from start to finish and actually do the hard work of the farming was not an issue because that wasn't the aim of "New Comminities".
You know ALOT about this I'd be interested what you think. I've reading your other posts here.
This is such sterling logic…HAHAHA~! Perhaps if you addressed one iota of the story, we'd actually care what you wrote – but you didn't, and we don't.
burnsy you are hopelessly bad w/the retorts man
. . .am I still your sweet Baboo? LOL
then he should!
just come out of the closet already then…

Is it fair to claim two Trophies from the same "Race Card" player Crying Wolf?
Nahhh, not sporting…
This isnt defamation, the event happened years ago and was obtained as any journalist would obtain a story. He didnt make the tape. My undertsanding is the whole tape is damning not just the segment Brietbart played. If it goes to court, Sherod will lose…. as the tape was factual and Breitbart didnt engineer it. She did in fact say those things and cant deny.
This harangue is about creating cover for the administration to distract the public from the fact they were going fire her without a hearing. Isnt that racist.
danke!
From what I have read, some of the farmers "intended" on starting a farm but were denied loans.
Also in reading some FSA info-the Pigford claimants have first dibs on auction equipment-right up until 24 hours before the auction is open to the public-the first dibs include real estate and equipment.
The language used in that FSA ruling was quite peculiar to me.
It read "beginning and socially disadvantaged" and specifically mentioned Pigford claimants.
So how in the heck can one be a beginning farmer and also been a Pigford claimant-see my issue there?
lol-my pleasure:)
I need to find out who gave her a grant to start her farm.
Slaves again? The blacks still are slaves – of the democraps and their black and white massas, from the NAACP to Jesse Hijackson and Al Dullton, IrReverend Wrong, Obama, Kennedy and the rest of them.
Blacks love slavery because they keep voting in the same massas year after year. The few blacks that escape slavery are considered "Uncle Toms" because they are free and off the plantation.
When someone like Breitbart points out that the blacks ARE SLAVES, both the slaves and their massas get angry because the Truth hurts them, like light scares away cockroaches.
The Truth is that most blacks in the US are already slaves and they love it. They are shackled to each other and to their ghettos and to government handouts. They hate freedom.
said by SuperSpeech: "I'm a white voter who is getting sick of being called a closet racist."
Face it, when Liberal-Democrats, NAACP, and Sherrod types call someone a Racist; it means they got nothing left to say. Playing "Race Card" has become the last desperate attack vector of pathetic losers.
Speaking of truth, SFBs, oops i mean wizeup, do you care to pontificate upon HR4899-defense appropriations bill that was denied cloture today in the senate and said addition to HR 4899 of $1.15 Billion to be allocated to Pigford II claimants????
In your earnest wisdom would you classify this as a defense bill or a farming bill or a social justice bill?????
I'll let you wipe the cheetoes you spit all over your screen before you answer my question, wise one.
And what do Republican Fubars have to do with anything in this argument? Sorry to destroy your straw man, but the topic is Shirley Sherrod's comments that Republicans are vicious because the president is black, rather than because his POLICIES are destructive to individual liberty, our economy and our constitutional framework.
I'm out. I'm a white guy that respects Democrats less and less because of their political tendency to categorize people who don't dislike their goals, as racist. And according to the Journolist this is a planned maneuver. Knowing it's false makes it 1000% worse.
If the Tea Party stands for Smaller government and Bigger individuals, then I'm a Tea Partier. I've never been to a Tea Party. I will probably never go to one, but now thanks to the race card throwers, I'm one of them. I'm one of them to show my solidarity for the underdogs. Most Tea Partiers are white people, we were born white, we can't help it, we're not racist. I'm guilty of being white. I also hate racism. I will demand left wing bomb throwers to stop calling me a racist in November when I get inside the ballot box. This sucks because a lot of my views are independent and by any definition, not Republican. I like more choice in elections. But my vote this year will be one of protest because you called me a racist or insist that I tolerate racism. Now reap what you sow NAACP and Obama white house.
What's really sad in all this is that with all the talk being about "who was racist and when", the bigger issue of what she says she realized is lost in the shuffle. Instead of it being about race, she spouts the Marxist theme of it being the have's vs the have not's. No, I'm not saying she's a card carrying marxist, but come on. How many super-leftist, class warfare, and now apparently race baiting people do we have to find during this administration before the general public begins to wonder just where all this hope and change is going to lead?
So what are your thoughts on HR4899 and the $1.15 Billion going out on the Pigford II suit.
betcha Shirley has a vested interest in that one.
Go ahead and play the race card–oops I mean victim card on me, wise one.
you go ahead and tell me this is not about money and I will wipe the cheetoes you spit on your screen up for ya'. Oh and you also have to prove to me this is not about money.
I am having a hard time crying for the victim card Sherrod since she is a flippin' millionaire at US taxpayers expense.
Hey did you know Sherrod started her farm with a grant???????Can you fill me in on what , if anything , this professional victim has earned????
No????
In case you don't know what it is—key word being work.
earn 1 (ûrn)
tr.v. earned, earn·ing, earns
1. To gain especially for the performance of service, labor, or work: earned money by mowing lawns.
2. To acquire or deserve as a result of effort or action: She earned a reputation as a hard worker.
3. To yield as return or profit: a savings account that earns interest on deposited funds.
Idiom:
earn (one's) spurs/stripes
To gain a position through hard work and the accumulation of experience, often in the face of difficulties
I'm afraid you're projecting on this one (assuming you're on the left). Those on the right aren't the one's saying that people/groups/news channel's who have opposing views should be shut down. You certainly have a right to say what you want, just as we have a right to pass on reading your posts if we feel like it, which I'll admit I didn't do this go round.
Well, this stuff has been going on since before Obama. Over $600 MILLION had been paid out as of June 2003.
Just saying maybe stuff happens for a reason-yes we have to pay attention-hopefully we are not too late.
redistribution as in give all our tax money to the banks when they lose what they have? That's yer socialism…socializing the losses, but keep those gains private no matter where they are from…even the government right? oh wait, the bank bailout wasn't redistribution…we would have all collapsed without using all our $$ to keep those robber barons going, we NEED them remember? Or it will all collapse….right. what a scam. THAT"S a scam..this is bs.
thanky:) at least some reps know about it.
Yes – censorship for anything that doesn't fit your little vision (nightmare?) of the world.
What "evidence"? You have provided none. When you watch the entire original video, she does say that she changed her mind on it being about black and white (except when she says "well, it is about black and white, but…" She later goes on to use the phrase "I took him to 'one of his own". If the skin colors were reversed and a white person used that phrase referring to a black person there would be no argument over whether it was a racist statement. It appears that it is you who come across as hateful and ignorant. Just as a side note, it wasn't the right that ruined the reputation of the word "liberal".
"Pay up for life"? Don't you think you're going a little overly dramatic on this?
really, you need to be a corporate "person" & pay nothing even though you get the same rights as those who pay.
love calling racists racists, they can't stand looking in the mirror.
I'm not one who says anyone should be shut down..especially this site. If it can afford to keep paying for the servers, it has a right to exist & say whatever, just as I have a right to do same.
I will gladly do so….I think we should be focusing our money here on Americans, not on war anywhere else@ this point. Our freedom is strong and we are not being truly threatened by a small group of extremist muslims that supposedly number in the hundreds. We should get out o0f everyone else's business and mind our own shop. we got big enough problems here. So, NO MONEY FOR WAR. Keep a strong military, but we spend way more money than we have on that crap alone….howzzat?
Not familiar enough w/the details of the pigford bill to comment one way or the other. unlike most here (& there) I will admit when I don't know something especially without any verifiable facts and not act like I do….
why weren't u there then…they didn't see you…the one half mexican there…if u were.
yavol pedo boy.
"Typical liberal KKK RACIST LIAR. " wtf izzat? I can't even imagine what one would look like. Makes sense to u I guess…never seen a liberal KKK member.
ooh that's a sharp retort there…how long did that take to think that "original" up?
Awesome! commonsense0914.
"we are not truly threatened by a small group of extremest Muslims that supposedly number in the hundreds". I would say you are right, we're not threatened by a small group of hundreds. We are threatened by a large group of likely tens of thousands. Those of the Muslim faith number around the Billion mark, so even if a mere 1% were to be extremists it would be 10 million. We can only hope there aren't quite that many. Pretending that the threat doesn't exist because they seem ignorant or ineffective (the last couple of bombing attempts didn't work out) or because there aren't many of them is foolish. It only took 19 of them, at least in final execution of the plan, to carry out an attack that killed nearly 3000 people. Even if that event took just 100 people to fund it, plan it, and execute it, that is incredibly dangerous. Should we open up fronts all over the globe and be fighting in the streets everywhere? No I think we could agree there. However, we can't simply act as if this is the 16th and 17th century and think that being separated from them by an ocean is going to protect us.
wtf is a neo communist? how can I be one if I never even heard the term? is that a party?
may be the only thing we agree on!
aren't I?
oh yes you do….you care a lot in fact, more than you know obviously.
Big Government – you’re a total joke! Once again, you doctor/edit your investigating reporting truth on the floor. What’s amazing is that your outfit paparazzi tactics are becoming so old and apparent, Riley had to apologize for biting- Its even better is WHEN Fox and RILEY have to swallowed BS in delivering your paparazzi crap, as though you have some sort of credibility, you cheat sooo BAD. If Fox was smart , they would put a 100 foot pole between Big Government and them It gives me great pleasure to tell you, your investigative reporting is none better than chasing down a celebrity like Bart Simpson, and gain nothing in delivering your so called truth- YOU CHEAT and your colleagues O’Keefe, Giles and Breitbart have no real LEG WORK journalism behind them nor does Big Government offer any substance to the American people .
You take all the news and post it to your web site, as though your site has the latest and greatest, false credit. Not impressed.
Actually a Republican
GOP will lose because of your terrorism and overall meanness . What a JOKE!
SUE BABY SUE!!!! What ever happen to the real debate?
damn then, I'll miss the formers, the latter is still all yours.
We all need to take control of our government these leftist racist have gotten away with stealing money for way too long and then saying we want them to be slaves again. Maybe deep down they want to be slaves again since this is all they talk about day in and day out. She makes a racist statement, Bobo in the White House jumps the gun like he did with the Cambridge cops. I wonder if Andrew will be going to a beer summit. Keep exposing these leftist mad dog malcontents that are fueled by their own hated of white America. You thinks she will give the 13 million back to society?
fear will get you nowhere. stand up like a man & face it. and you don't need a whole army to do so. Just hire some more mercenaries, I mean contractors, to do it. I don't fear muslims, only extremists, no matter what race, religion or political party.
You're right, you didn't. I should have used a different pronoun there. The left in general seems to respond this way however. For example, Mrs Sherrod herself was asked if foxnews and this website should be shutdown, her response was "That would be a great thing. Because I don’t see how that advances us in this country." Later she moves from wanting them shut down to an accusation that conservatives in general want society to be such that blacks are considered inferior again or, taken to an extreme, re-enslaved (she didn't define exactly what she meant so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she doesn't think we want to be slave owners) I know that she is not some final authority on the left, but her comment seems to be more the rule that the exception as it pertains to how those on the left respond to opposing views. You, at least by your repeated posts, seem to be one of those exceptions.
YEP
Where exactly in my post did I seem to show that I'm fearful? I simply stated that there are more extremists than you seem to think there are, and that it doesn't take very many to begin with to cause plenty of damage. I do find it interesting that you say "stand up like a man & face it" referring to my supposed fear and then turn and say that you yourself "fear" extremists. I don't particularly care about your opinion of my manhood, you don't know me from Adam. However, there aren't a large number of conservative, liberal, or hindu "extremists" showing up on the news on a daily basis having blown themselves up in a market or restaurant, so the "all extremists are the same" argument only goes so far. By the way, I personally don't have any mercs or contractors on staff, but making veiled references to the leftist boogymen of Halliburton or Blackwater does little to prove your point.
The finger of blame for poor race relations should be pointed at:
1. Our Great Divider-in-Chief
2. The Democrat Party – which was founded by a Slave Owner and are still fixated with controlling Blacks
3. Our corrupt liberal/progressive MSM wolfpack press who know that if Blacks start voting GOP the Democrat Party ceases to exist.
4. the NAACP who took a shot a the Tea Party calling them racists
Bottom line these folks above ARE …….the reason why race relations have been set back a generation
Just an other crazy liberal.
Hey Wizeup: Defamation? The only way that can be proven is if Breitbart willingly doctored the tape. However, Breitbart definitely has a defamation case against the media whore Sherrod. Oh, now she wants this site shut down too? Fox Too? Who does this nobody think she is? If defamation was any reason to shut down a site, then MSNBC, CNN, ABC, politico, and the Huffington Post, NY Times and Washington Post would have been shut down years ago.
lol @ this site and Barfbart getting the full hatred of this country and the media. Lol look at all of you…cosigning each other and defending the moron who put out a HEAVILY edited tape. This wasn't the first time he did it either. lol who in the mainstream is even agreeing with any of you? You look like complete fools…agreeing with other fools. Congrats on being exposed as racist idiots. Maybe you all can cosign each other on how much you hate what I am saying lol!
Another thing. If I were a racist, so friggin what? I'd just be like 90% of the democratic party.

?
Is it true that Andrew Breitbart was in the audience during her speech, and shouted the "N"word at her 15 times and spat on John L. Lewis who was sitting in front of Andrew?
Thanks for that and an actual discussion point without name calling, which I can do with the best of them, but much prefer to engage in actual debating of the issues. I can understand some of the feelings expressed here but my feeling in general about the right is just the same in many of them wanting to suppress the news & commentary they don't like or want to hear. It should all be out there on the table…we just have to weed out the bs to get to some serious discussion.
good one….not me, but that is definitely one…could not imagine what it looked like, but you got me on that one!
ps- if you read some of the other posts you'd see I am absolutely not for censorship of any kind. free speech for all all the time…tune out if you don't like it, pay up if you lose in court, but I'm not for shutting down or censoring anything/one.
lololol-must be I am onto something here, 'cause SFBs is calling it BS.
Hey, so what about HR4899-you ever said how you would classify it-defense appropriations or farming bill????
Really, cheetoboy, 'robber barons' is so passe…can't you come up with something better than that. And WTF does the bank bailout have to do with Sherrod? I do not support the flippin' bank bail-out, SFBs. AND i will gently remind you that your social justices asshats got federal regulations that forced banks to loan to the "socially disadvantaged" with credit scores of 450-yeah I read all about it on Wade Rathke's blog, bozoboy,
Rathke was bragging….Rathke and his thugs went into Washington Mutual board meeting and took the joint over. SO WAMU caved and gave more bad loans so Rathke and his ACORN zombies wouldn't burn the joint down. wade did have to give in because he wanted WAMU to loan out to "socially disadvantaged" with credit score of 400.
in case you missed it WAMU went belly-up.
I always got a kick out of Wade Rathke's blog, as I especially enjoyed the entry titled "Dreams of Fidel".
Don't even get me started on the crap those fatcats Dodd and Frank pushed through under the guise of "financial reform" FOR THE "SOCIALLY AND HISTORICALLY DISADVANTAGED". And Rangle, you brought up banking-so i am going to throw Rangle out there to you. rent protected bastard who doesn't claim his income from his offshore vacation homes. Oh and Franklin Raines, his little new non-profit is raking it in, flush with "green zone" urban grants for the "socially disadvantaged" regarding putting in solar panels in homeless shelters in conjunction with BP (you know BP the guys that killed the Gulf-they get tax breaks for working with raines)-Remember Franklin Raines-yeah he's the dude that got the BIG fat fannie mae paycheck.–so how much is fannie Mae worth now??? last I heard $500K.
And do not even get me started on solar panels-SOLYNDRA-Obama's pet project.
Biden announced the $535 Million Government stimulus "green" loan to Solyndra-Obama talked it up all over the WH Rose garden-obama made a speech at Solyndra Freemont, CA, factory-of course, all the UNION workers were given Obama speech day off WITHOUT PAY!!!!!!
why do i mention Solyndra, cheetoboy??????
BECAUSE the dude that sits on the board of Solyndra is also the very same same dude that is a lobbyist for Capital Ventures, INC, K street LOBBYISTS AND that very same dude that is a lobbyist and sits on the board of Solyndra.
is also………………………………………….
…………………………………..The SOLAR PANEL EXPERT FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY.
conflict of interest????????
BTW-Solyndra's solar cylinders are ONLY 10% energy efficient and the company is going belly up losing money hand over fist. they will default on their Stimulus loan of $535 MILLION. I suggest you look it up before you dispute me, wise one.
So whose the scam?????
Contact me went you wish to debate the East Anglia e-mails. I'm here , huckleberry.
and remember never argue with and Objectivist.
Corporate as in Obama sanctioned $535 million stimulus green funded Lobbyists and Government DOE expert sits on the board Solyndra corporate??????
For a good time, Cheetoboy, read my other post to you.
What's that i hear…….It's the screaming of the lambs, cheetoboy, and the tears of the daily Koos.
It never leaves you does it…the truth…no matter how hard you try, it will be there …screaming……
"it will put the lotion on its skin or it will get the hose again."
Ok! That's good. Letting some people keep talking usually exposes their ignorance both on the right and left. You got some spunk and do a pretty good job sticking up, for youself – so peace.
Seriously that HAS to be a photoshoped pix of Byrd. I found it in Google pix but Byrd would NEVER let himself be photographed in a Klan robe.
As a younger and middle aged man Byrd was an active Klansman and then repudiated it later in life when it was clear that it was a political liability. I think a guy born 1908 or whatever keeps his views for life, but I don't know his heart despite the fact that I pounded him all the time for his Klan past.
Historically the Klan and Democrat Party were not just aligned but the Klan grew out of Democrat Party activists to intimidate black voters and white people and people like ME, mixed ethnics/ Catholics and Jews and such.
My argument is that the modern Democrat Party perpetuates the horrible conditions and hopelessness you see in most inner citied by feeding the monster raw momey which is converted into to drugs and alcohol and the cycle continues.
If you try to cut it back like Clinton did do in the 90's people scream dicrimination. It's a terrible cycle that must be broken.
And behind door number three we got a social justice payout of $13 MILLION DOLLARS.
Shirley Sherrod , come on down!!!!!!!!
And with your rather large bank statement, we also offer you a host of other social justice awards for your celebrated victimhood!!!!!! Over here on the table we have a fully financed masters degree-yeah free education!!!!!!
And we are also going to give you a CDC grant, compliments of the OEO and USDA, free money for you ,Shirley, because you wear your victimhood soooooo well!!!!!
And a job, since you were so successful suing the USDA, we are going to give you a job as a liason with the USDA so you can teach all the other "socially disadvantaged" Pigford claimants how you went Track B on the lawsuit and there is never a need to settle for a pittance of $62,500-why do that when you can rake in MILLIONS!!!!!!!!
And there's MORE-Shirley, you will get first dibs on all auction real estate and farm equipment, yes, Shirley, it can all be yours for pennies on the dollar!!!!!
What more, yes, Shirley, we are feeling generous today, the USDA is going to pay your income tax to the IRS!!!!!! yes the USDA will pay your income tax liabilities on your $13 million lawsuit against the USDA.
And your attorney the USDA will pay for your attorney.
And no matter what your credit score is or no matter how much you ask for in a USDA loan, Shirley, we will be there for you!!!!!!! All future USDA loans to you are hereby approved!!!!!!!!
Congratulations, Shirley, you are now a professional victim!!!!!!!
What's that, Shirley?
You still want an apology, sorry you will have to go to the balless wonder Bill O'reilly for that one.
We need more ferocity ala Adam's classic character Animal Mother, sans the N-bombs…of course.
Mmmmm must be good KoolAid.
Fair enough, I respect your opinion on this one and I disagree.
I do agree with you one the point that we spend more money than we have and that needs to stop post haste.
I appreciate you candor regarding Pigford, it is another adventure in unnecessary pork that we cannot afford.
Will discuss the Islamic issue later as I am all pooped out from previous ranting. I have tons of research on that little diity.
crickets chirping??????
I would still like to know what Breitbart supposedly did wrong. Was it that he didn't show the whole 15 minute speech? Do we really have to post and view whole speeches now so quasi journolists who want to demonize people like Breitbart can't mischaracterize him? I have heard many people say that he misrepresented her view. I would agree if he had left out her personal revelation that it wasn't about black or white, that it was about rich vs poor. But he didn't he represented her views in the abbreviated tape as closely as one could. In some ways some of trhe incendiary comments that were left out could be interpreted as more hateful and damning than the confession about initially not helping the white farmer. Can someone explain what exactly he did wrong other than pay the price for the NAACP and Obama jumping the gun? This is an honest request for anyone who thinks Breitbart did something wrong. Could you please clarify your indignation?
So, tell me, wise one, what's up with your obsession with race?
lol-one of our best buds in tea party is an American of Hispanic descent-lol-so put that in you cheeto bag-lol.
I just figure he is a pretty awesome American as the guy served in the military and worked his butt of raising his kids.
I am at a loss of why those of the left ilk have to classify folks according to race?
it really does escape me.
In the long run, truth will win out as long as Breitbart doesn't tuck in his tail and run. This incident can be used to learn and as a springboard. We know the old press is skewed. It's one sided response is just another example that will come back to bite them, maybe sooner than later if this woman's 15 minutes of fame turns into a full blown race discussion that will undoubtedly expose government corruption in lawsuit settlements and more hateful remarks by the NAACP. I would love to know the whole story on her father's death. Was that the turning point that propelled her hate? Was it endemic in her community? Eric Holder called us cowards for not discussing race. He is right about that but I think he might be surprised that it won't be a one sided discussion. Our country can't afford the continued racism that so freely flows from this woman's lips or other race baiters like the NAACP or the journolists any more than racism from the kkk.
never take the stuff or watch that crap either…ignoramus.
Sherrod asks what Breitbart has done to bring the races together. Exposing racism within the NAACP is every bit as important as exposing racism within the kkk. We will never overcome the raical divide as long as groups that call anyone who opposes their agenda races are allowed to go unchallenged.
When James Byrd was dragged to his death by white racists it hurt this nation badly. What if that incident never happened? What if it had just been a rumor? would the hurt that was caused by the rumor be any less hurtful to the nation than if the incident happened? Would the rumor monger be any less guilty of creating the hurt than the actual mmurderer? The NAACP can't leave false rumors and false innuendo hanging in the air with unchallenged impunity. The damage they do is as harmful as the damage done by real racism.
Hillary supporters were called racists. McCain supporters were called racists. Now the tea party is being called racist. Can annyone name a single source from the old media who are challenging these hurtful and largely unfounded assumptions? It is a tragedy to this nation to see the continuing destruction far more damaging than any actual racism at this point in America's history.
They are slaves but today their masters are democrats not white land owners. They will remain enslaved as long as they believe the garbage coming from the left.
The truth is a defense to slander and defamation. The video speaks for itself.
Speaking "reason" to Shirley is like trying to teach a orangutan quantum physics.
She is not very bright is she?
¿Es Mechista, lucerotr? ¿íSabe que eso es el mas grande grupo de racistas en el país, no? ¿Ha matado a unos negros recientemente? ¿íPorque Vd. odia a los negros?
¿íPorque molesta sexualmente a los cachorros? ¿Qué haces con sus cuerpos cuando ha acabado con ellos? Todos los además saben que odia a negros y ama a los cachorros. Por favor no eches no mas la culpa, a los sacerdotes, los molestaciones sexuales. ¿Por que tal odio?
That would be vampires. Easy mistake for you to make, your being a vamp tramp. All that multi-tasking can wear a girl out what with being a one-girl lynch mob & pedophile. I do wish you'd quit blaming the priests for your pedophilic transgressions, though.
Projection, redirection, labeling, etc.–woman up! Take responsibility for your disease-spreading ways.
I saw you got deleted by the administrator earlier. 'Found out they were Black and tried to hang them, didn't you? Don't get so upset–I'm sure you can sell those mirrors at HuffPoison of GeorgeSorryAss.com. You know the one with the Hitler overlay replete with his pecker-duster moustache.
Better get rid of the child porn on your hard drive, though–your NAZI buddies are cracking down on "your kind." Oh, look, I just used "hard" and "crack (ing)" in the same conversation I'm trying to have with someone everyone knows is a convicted pedophile. Subliminal innuendo sure comes easy when you know you're dealing with one of Chester's Children.
You'll love your home team, then. Can we expect you to go back soon or are you learning how to really stick a thumb in the eye here?
I think you meant top say "ladder." Don't you use those in your rendezvous with the youngsters? I doubt that they can "reach" you without one.
But then, you got "Ya wohl" wrong earlier, which is kind of surprising, given your NAZI predisposition to hangin out at the "boy-toy'" clubs. Bad enough to be a negrophobic, pedophilic, NAZI but not to have a basic command of your own language is unforgivable.
You still haven't answered my question about how many notches you on your noose.
Corporations don't really pay taxes, you're right, they just pass the taxes on to you in the form of higher prices. Screw 'em (yourself), screw 'em (yourself) good! HuffPoseur Economics 001. Being stupid is hhaarrrrddd!
All that lynching of Blacks seems to have clouded your (mis) understanding of the basics of Economics. Maybe a fling with a cachorro, or a Muslim Dancing Boy will clear what's left of your mind. Lynching Blacks is hhaaarrrrdddd! Getting it on with Muslim dancing boys is ffuuunnnn! (Mike Myers voice) Do they make you horny? Do they?
The slaves in my black neighborhood drive Lexus , Cad , BMW and Audi. Can I be a slave please ?
What "liberties" have you taken with liver? My God, hepatophilia–is there no end to your talents?! Must be, you're wasting you're time reading and responding to this drivel.
Maybe you just didn't "finesse" it enough. Liver-sex is like any other–ya gotta be a "principled" lover to get any "interest" in return. Invest and it shall return. It's a banking thang. Quit being a selfish "minuteman."
Here we go……We are all "racists" now for not wanting a progressive / Marxists agenda…. I would be interested in the percentage of people that were at this meeting that worked for the government….So what we are being told is that before Scherrod has this come to Jesus monument in her life, her work was done with "racists" bias..If that's the case I think we should look at what she has really done while working at the USDA …There may just well be discrimination suits against the USDA from people affected before her come to jesus moment…And I would also suggest audits of this USDA office back the twenty four years …Something is starting to stink here….I think there been as usual a "LOT" of tax payer money thrown around here …..
At first I thought she did a racist act by half stepping the white farmer although her redemptive thing came across. As all the hoopla broke and I watched the "whole" video the NAACP put out (there is an edit or something right around he discussion of the white farmer), I thought she had kind of a nice , southern , black manner about her. She seemed pretty smart , attractive and funny although absolutely obsessed with race and a bit too fond of government jobs and money.
Then her interviews started popping up and I am seeing the familiar anger of the race baiter. In a way she reminds me of Obama. When I first saw him , his smile seemed much more attractive than a rerun of the Clinton era but after he got in his anger started to show. He seems to show a seething side when someone gets in his way.
I am sorry Shirley, the more I see of you the more bitter you appear. I understand all this media stuff might do that to you but Breitbart doesn't want you picking cotton with a chain around your ankle. That is crazy talk. Frankly I can't imagine you being on anyone's wish list if , God forbid,slavery were to make a comeback.
I know Shirley didn't intend to become national fodder and God knows I would not handle it well but Shirley, you and the NAACP and the Dems really need to stop calling people the R-word without real proof. To many of us it is just as insulting as being called the N-word. You do not get a free pass and a lot of people are sick of all the lying and ,frankly, the whining. Absolutely no one want slavery back in this country. We are still paying for the last round and my family came here after it was over. The "cry racist" shtick is boring. I think they are getting that Rev Wright room ready at the hideout.
I liked it! "Brainless twit" has a air of honesty about it…
You don't have right to be wrong about everything, though. That's a sin called lying. Because it is a sin, by definition, it is also antisocial. Understanding the basic tenets of civilty aren't within the intellectual purview of Darwidiots, is it?
Why don't you like your fellow human beings? Do you have the same sentiment about Blacks? Never mind, I think we've covered that. Oh, well, nothin' noose under the Sun, huh?
Quit yer carp-in , then, ya' little bass-turd. Perch on this. You're rotten to the albacore. Oh my God, stop me before I pun again! Got ya "hooked", don't I? Reeled you in like I own you. You're gonna vote for newt if he runs, I assume. What was the name of that electrifying band years ago, Eely Dan? Have you had it up to the gills yet? Find a different pond, scum. Ha ha ha.
The poor blacks and whites are already slaves to the government with no way out. Welfare checks, poor education and blame the sucessful Americans have made a permanent underclass who listens every election to the promise of "we will improve your life' only to have no change and to be more dependent on the government massa. The slavery perpetuated by the liberal progressive communists is destroying lives for votes. The hysterical racism label is a tool of the regime to try and quiet the opposition and strenghthen the "slave' vote. Poor uneducated Americans who are presumed to be slaves to the Obama regime wake up and overcome the hole your government has put you in. I HAVE A DREAM
Smoothie.
'Not to mention AB's peeps tend to be capitalists but, in the end, isn't that just another wealth-redistribution avenue for the Left?
Memo to Sh#tty Shirley-Andy still has 100k on the table for anyone to prove the Tea Party folks in DC were calling your fellow racists racial slurs. Maybe you might try for it. I need a good laugh.
Fortunately there is one on your stall, Horse-Boy. How about closing it occasionally–nobody wants to see that crap.
The only thing defaming in this case,"wize" is your body odor. Take a bath, its obviously been a very long while.
It IS "away."
Hey Wize-Im proud to be a racist-against the likes of Sh#tty Shirley, Malik the Shabby azzhole, Jealous Ben, Dumbama, Maliks little pooches at the NPB like Qanal X La raza, Meecha. I dont min d being referred to as a racist against them. They give me good reason to dislike them. So do you.
Well, if you dont fear muslims, I suggest you try Saudi Arabia, Iran, Or Pakistan as places of residence. Theyd love to behead an infidel.
Corporations are people, dumbdown–they're called stockholders. Instead of being terminally stupid and class-envious delusional, why don't you buy stock in and be a part of a corporation instead of an enemy to them? Maybe you and a couple hundred other Leftist trolls could pool your pesos and buy a share of Microsoft.
God, you self-anointed geniuses on the Left are stupid!
And your the guy who says you dont engage in name calling-you cant help youself there pinko. Just like your clown hero, Soros. Go try some butt sniffing exercises , unwise-you likley need them.
Tell me fool-would you be willing to hold the rest of the media accountable for there lies-like say, Dan Blather and the forged doucments? Of course you wont- You can return now to your day job of being Soros Lewinsky butt buddy , or the front door for backdoor Barne Frank.
If, or I should say when, Shirley files a law suit against AB — I wonder where she will file it?
I'm sure this admin wants to make an example of AB and will find a sympathetic judge.
AB has become the next Ken Starr.
You're right…I'm being insensitive. I should have said "primates," which would include homo sapiens. Gotta be as PC as possible, obvious references to "The Wizard of Oz" notwithstanding.
If you think farmers know how to deal with manure, think again. This Saint Shirley has been wading deeper and deeper…
Sherrod is a sharade! Now the real truth comes out in her statements following the original video clip. She is a racist who wants anything and everything she can get by means of her color. Didn't she sue years ago, the government and get 13 million? Now she is going to suck the well dry over this. Just another progressive, liberal, crook.
I'm disgusted that FOX news won't allow Breitbart on their network. I'm not surprised the rest of the networks won't allow him but I expected more fron FOX.
You have to admit it fun every now and then. I have an account at the ol' huff and puff and a few others. That is where the fun is really at. Love to quietly roll into a conversation and get them fighting among themselves. That is funny stuff. They try it here often but are discovered almost immediately. What does that say for their self described higher intellect? Once in a blue moon, you can get a quality discussion with one of them. Not often though. They are usually just like this one, a box of rocks has more to offer in terms of quality discussion. LOL
Brietbart will be sued for defemation of character. He clearly doctored the tape and he should pay for attacking this ladys character.
You make a vacuous comment like that and you want people to think your not a racist?
If she sues the government and she should along with Bratfart she within her rights. But dont blame her, Blame Bratfart. He created this mess with his doctored video. He should get what he deserves.
They just can't handle the truth! Andrew warned them when all the uproar of ACORN was ongoing. He told the MSM, we have other tapes to reveal as we get closer to the election. I surmise they, MSM, thought he was referring to ACORN tapes. But wait! There is more to come. Lets count some recent non-ACORN related tapes, The voter intimidation tapes from PA showing members of the "NewBlackPanthers" in action. The beat-down of a "Black Conservative" by Union members in StLouis. The punches thrown by a Black activist at a man peacefully demonstrating, we are still awaiting criminal action agains both perpitrators of those incidents. The more being revealed about this latest dust-up the worse it becomes for the usual suspects. Thankfully they are real slow learners.
Somehow I doubt its just these folks you hate!
In 1986 which party created that legislation, since the legislation came from Congress.
Liberals hate it when minorities try to escape the Democrat Plantation.
It appears that they need to return to home base for affirmation of the validity of their bigotry and hatred for the USA.
I tried to avoid this race crap–stale, overblown, and fauxny. I thought I'd let the inner comediprick out yesterday. Don't like having to shower that much. I think dumbdown wants to have my baby, though.
Tru dat. Concise, too.
Blacks are already slaves……to the Democratic Party. Who feeds them? Houses them? Gives them free medical care? Gives them money for their drugs and booze? Democrats. All for a vote.
Poor rocks. Well, P2O, you hit on a point I like to make all the time. They have deluded themselves into believing that, by identifying with the "smart set", THEY, through that association, are themselves smart. They're too dumb to understand that someone's being in power or in a position of authority, does not mean that they are smart–especially when you look at the chicanery the DemoTards always have to engage in to get hired.
Our poiitcal system has a history of schizophrenia. It has, generally, always been a situation in which the DemoCretins screw crap up, especially the economy, until the people can't take it anymore and then the RepubliCretins get hired to fix at least the economy. The Demmunists invariable win the propaganda war as to which party repaired the damage that was usually their creation. Ignorance is expensive and about to get far more costly.
Obviously she is either lying or an accomplice in an attempt to trick AB. The ONLY way AB can be guilty of wrongdoing is if he was sent the full tape and edited it himself. It would be easy to prove that he was set up either by producing the original tape or CD he was given/sent, or by showing the email received with the attachment downloaded from the server back in March. Either way, if he was working from a sources edited tape and had no other knowledge, it's obviously a set-up to attempt to smear him as racist. That MSNBC, NBC and CNN have all carried the AB is a Racist mantra lends me to believe they might have stooped so low as to be in on it or at least in a media dog-eat-dog world, complicit with the lie (which doesn't surprise me). The fact that the unedited tape appeared literally hours after the damage was done tells me the entire affair was staged. It's clearly a Bill Ayres type of ploy. This woman is no victim. I think the plan was to get Glenn Beck to bite and he didn't, yet she and the NAACP have gone forward with the lie that FOX NEWS lead this story. It's an obvious set-up.
I thought this woman had an Epiphany moment, sounds more like a relapse.
You are obviously NOT a lawyer. In fact, your vindictive comment appears rather irrational. Sued or not, she has no case because the presentation of evidence to him nearly 4 months prior was ignored. He only had an edited tape, something easily proven in the EDP sense and so his final report to the public was based on information edited by the source. In a trial, the source will be exposed and we'll find out who really did dupe AB. In the meantime, she made public statements and news editors often mislead or take things out of context purposefully, and yet they are rarely ever found guilty of anything even when it is done intentionally – which was not the case here. I would love to be the Lawyer sitting in COURT defending AB with you on the other side and your petty little emotionally charged lies to defeat. Wizeup – you are a tool perhaps no brain-trust, that is obvious.
Has anybody seen this? Outrageous liberal smear. This shows just how desperate they are. http://www.andrewbreitbart.net/
All true.
Most of the really wealth landowners around here are Democrats.
It was an excerpt, not a "doctored video."
"Doctored," according to wiktionary means:
1) altered; falsified
2) repaired
The excerpt wasn't altered, wasn't falsified, and it certainly wasn't repaired. It was an excerpt — meaning, part of the whole thing. If I quote from a book, I haven't "doctored" the book. I have taken an excerpt from it.
Either you are a victim of government-run, public education, or else you purposely created your own spin right here. Would it be wrong to hope that you get what you deserve?
are you a lawyer? doubt it…just cuz you think he was duped doesn't let him escape the suit if she wants to try. We'll see you in court big boi.
I'm 67 YO conservative white guy with rainbow family.
I have a [legal] Mexican daughter in law who gave me 4 brown grandsons. I also have a black son in law who has given me 2 beautiful peach colored grand daughters. I love my grand kids more than life it self.
That said I'm tired of the jacksons, sharptons, wrights, farakhans and now SHERRODS. These people are nothing more than big mouthed, racist poverty pimps who work for the real slave masters, the democrat party.
Until the black community disowns and shuts these big mouth bigots up we will never attain Rev. Kings dream.
I do think Breitbart should man up and apologize for publishing only the inflammatory part of Sherrods speech.
He does great work. He does not need to stoop to the democrat way of doing things.
I am only bigoted against one thing….bigots! you say I hate the usa….not me. I am proud to live in a country where I can speak my mind…even to j-offs like you. I am just as much a patriot as any other citizen. You saying otherwise don't mean s&*%.
like I said in a previous post, don't like to but can do it with the best & the rest if needed.
That is so true RobertB. Most of the people here hide their racism behind politics.
Not all conservatives are racist. Mis-informed, ignorant to the facts maybe, but racist no.
the pedophile thing is so old and stale already…& doesn't even work, so you can stop obsessing & stay away from those kids. the way you talk I would never let you near one and hope you don't have any…if so, too bad for the kid.
You clearly are no lawyer. In the first place, the media edit people's stories all the time, something AB DIDN'T do. If it were possible to sue for defamation over that, their would be no news media at all. How the hell do you think rags like the National Enquirer survive suits filed weekly? The fact is, you are passionately upset about something you have no knowledge of. Worse yet, your level of education is so poor, you don't even realize how foolish your claim is. Hoping you have at least an 8th grade intellect, let me explain why she has no case against AB. (1) Context of the Source is critical. (2) AB didn't even consider airing the clip for four months. (3) The original source can be learned through modern back-door technology that allows the provider to be traced so the source will become known in a civil defense case. (4) The source will be grilled on the stand as to why he/she did not provide a complete tape (was there a nefarious motive). (5) If the source was from within the NAACP (and most people with better than 8th grade educations think it was) then the question becomes one of why did the NAACP send an obviously misleading tape to AB in the first place. (5) The damage was done in any event by the plaintiff's own mouth. The question as to her motives and full context are relevant and if the NAACP purposely mislead AB then the fault will lie without, not on him. (6) Any rational investigator is going to look at the chronology (that's time line for you) and realize that this was an attempt to set up the defendant (AB) and perhaps even others (principally Fox News). But Fox News didn't bite and never even aired the story until after the White House had ordered the woman fired. (7) Only an insane or idiot lawyer would file a suit against AB on this one because discovery is a bitch. Every moment of the woman's life will come out and if she has made other racist comments over the years, if she has had disciplinary reports filed against her held by her employer (the US Government), if she has been involved in these sorts of things before, it will all come out in the open. (8) She needs to worry far more than AB. If she was connected to the source of the tape, the duplicitous nature of the cause will be seen as part of a conspiracy to defraud which goes beyond a simple he said/she said time-line….and dude, that is where this may be headed. What SHE should be concerned about is that AB not hire private investigators to dig deeply into her connections to the original tape, the edited source, etc. SHE may end up the one found guilty of an attempt to slander AB and mislead the media. (9) She may simply be a victim of some nefarious plot by others intending to take down an AB or a GB or someone like that, but in the end, she is no victim of slander on the part of AB. He didn't edit or produce the tape. SHE (not AB) was the ultimate original source of the words with or without context that led to the inappropriate actions of the White House and the big egg smeared all over the President's face.
glad to hear it…always like when people show their true stripes.
Breitbart was clearly wrong and defamed this ladys character. This lady had some black white issues in her past, but learned to heal and actually help a person of another color. People like Breitbart, Hannity, Sarah Palin, and Rush Limbaugh continually divide our country all the while laughing all the way to the bank
You don't think kicking clients to others because one doesn't want to deal with them because of their race is racist? Fair enough. Its racism from where I stand. Also, even that quote is misleading, because Mrs. Sherrod's dealing with the white farmer did not end there.
In the full speech Sherrod stated that when the farmer called and told her the lawyer wasn't helping him and that he was going to lose his farm, she stepped in once again and helped him save his farm (a point the farmer in question verified in interviews). Sherrod finished her story by stating that its about opportunity, not race and that God helped her move past the (racial) hatred that was once in her heart.
http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/shirleys...
http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/us/2010/07/20/sp...
So I'll say it again, Breitbart unfairly smeared her as a racist. Clearly some people disagree with me, but I don't think false accusations of racism are acceptable no matter who makes (I don't care if its the NAACP calling the Tea Party racist or Breitbart calling Sherrod racist).
A Setup? Ya Think? Duh! Like most Bill Ayers inspired plots however, it failed because:
1) FOX never aired anything until AFTER the WHITE HOUSE had acted stupidly (again), and
2) Regardless of the facts, the left-leaning band of brothers at CNN, NBC, MSNBC, CBS and ABC have ALL jumped on the FOX NEWS is guilty bandwagon, which is pretty clearly an attempt to smear FOX when in fact FOX was not involved and simply went with a breaking story as happens in every news room.
3) The ultimate source of information (who provided AB with the original edited clip) will come out and will be exposed. At that Ah Ha moment we'll all realize exactly what was attempted and why.
you are clearly not one either with those wacky comments. like I said…what you say doesn't matter one tiny bit…it's up to the courts, not even the lawyers or you can change that no matter what you say or think.
heh, heh, slam-dunk
(So that's why the left won't support corporations–they don't know what they really are or what they really do.)
Glenn Beck was the target and Andrew Brietbart was the supposed to be the trigger finger of–friendly fire that was supposed to take Beck and FOX news out– but Andrew missed the target because Glenn Beck saw it coming, as Andrew should have and may have ??– Glenn ducked and returned a devastating counter attack that took out Olinsky, the NAACP and the MSM all with one shot, Beck wisely took Ms Sherrod's side (and the left say's Beck is a clown and an idiot). Ms, Sherrod even attempted to set Beck up when she said; she was forced out because she was going to be on The Glenn Beck show—not in the way she anticipated though.
Here is very strong evidence, not proof, but given Olinsky tactics and the fact that they are being used daily in the MSM, NAACP and the side walks and halls of CONgress, this should come as no real stretch of the imagination either.
Union Community Responds to Glenn Beck⨠James Cone and Black Liberation Theology in the Spotlight
In a recent segment of his Fox news show, Glenn Beck took aim at Liberation Theology, especially that of Dr. James H. Cone, Union's Charles A. Briggs Distinguished Professor of Systematic Theology. Several Union students, faculty, alumni/ae and administrators have reacted to the program, in news articles, blog posts and even a YouTube video. Several are highlighted below.
I did some homework after I finally saw Ms Sherrod's speech; In her capacity of USDA recruiter for the giant corporate welfare arm of the USDA (USDA is nothing more than an arm of government corporate welfare–think ethanol as the number one example), to the NAACP in the light of Black Liberation Theology BLT (a Theology that appeared the NAACP audience members are familiar with)–pointed out to me in another thread, by poster BuddyTWD, where she almost had me converted due to the elitist verbiage she used–verbiage that I am very much in agreement with on the elitist points, because they are a Tea Party kind of stance, the difference is who the elitist actually are and the use of race as the means to take the elitist down and out–big government and big business alliance, but that is another thread altogether—back to the home work– and it was very refreshing and revealing, this bullet was meant for Glenn Beck and Breitbart was the friendly fire meant to take Beck out….

It is often pointed out that Sherrod went to southwest Georgia and never left. After a brief sojourn in New York, where he received his master's degree in sacred theology from Union Theological Seminary http://www.utsnyc.edu/glennbeck in 1967, Sherrod returned to the Southwest Georgia Project for Community Education, where he served as director from 1961 to 1987. He also directed New Communities, Inc., a cooperative farming project, from 1969 to 1985. He served on the Albany City Commission from 1976 to 1990, and in 1996 ran unsuccessfully for Georgia State Senate. Sherrod currently works as a chaplain at the Georgia State Prison in Homerville, Georgia.

Old, stale, and whether or not it works is moot. The verity of it is the part to which I'm sure you object. Vienna sausage is not a circuitous allusion to the Vienna Boys Choir so you need to suppress your fantasies about them. I'm sure my exposing you for the bigot and pervert you obviously are, is not rendered ineffective by your fatigue with and unwilligness to defend against what you would like to have others think are baseless attacks. I.E. saying it doesn't actually make it so. So, hands off the kiddies, Vienna-Boy.
BTW, hands off the Blacks, too. Everybody knows about your siitin' on the crapper fingering your shoestring noose dreamin' about the Bull Connor/George Wallace days. The way you talk, I 'd never let you near a minority. I hear the Klan's looking for a new boy-toy–leavin' soon?
The fact that I have repeated these things frequently and conspicuously on the Big site, means that they are not baseless and, in fact, where dumbdown is concerned, are mostly likely true in spades.
(So that's why the left won't support corporations–they don't know what they really are or what they really do.) Likely truer than you might think. I'm discovering things with these 'Tards I'd 'bout rather not known.
I'm 'bout ready for that Holy Water bath. All that wailing and gnashing. Or is it the drooling and schooling that is so exhausting? Decided to try di_da's "badger" style. Ha ha.
He hates himself so much that instead of shooting himself he decided to skin himself alive. WE'RE the sick puppies, though.
i am not a democrat nor a republican! but Breitbart look like a slave owner. he is arrogant and ignorant. We really do not need this right now. if we really want A true contry we would leave that racist subject alone. Breitbart YOU ARE A FREAKING IDIOT THAT IS SEEKING FOR ATTENTION AND YOU ARE USING THIS CAUSE FOR YOUR PERSONAL GAIN! I AM A TEA PARTIER. ALL I WAN IS LOWER TAX AND SMALL GOVERNMENT. WE DO NOT NEED THE BLACK AND WHITE CONVERSATION.
Don't hate, racistup.
"I'm discovering things with these 'Tards I'd 'bout rather not known."
Understood. For sure, nasty is the nature of the leftist beast(s). They're not miserable for nothing.
Never thought about 'style,' but I guess we all have one. Anyway, good job.
"we just have to weed out the bs to get to some serious discussion." Like you'd recognize that. I expect disingenuousness from a racist pedophile, though. Lots to hide. If you were the least bit moral you would go back under your bridge and leave the adults alone but that's not in a Communist.
"just Media Matters/MSM/Democrat Plantation supplied talking points." On an intellectually vigorous day.

According to you then sawdustking, if because she is defending herself from that LIAR she is a whore, then Ru$h, Hanning, Beck, Those other jokers on FoxNews are Superwhores.
I have to agree with Ms. Sherrod. Breitbart is clearly opposed to President Obama. Can anyone honestly say or believe that that's not true? I think it's also fair to say that his defamation of Ms. Sherrod was racially motivated. The reason he posted the edited video in the first place was an attempt to respond to the characterization of the tea party as having racist elements. He's said himself that he wanted to show that the NAACP is a racist organization. This backfired spectacularly. What has Breitbart ever done to promote racial harmony?
she should fit right in with obummer and co.
… fish on! This is a 'handout queen' – poor vs. rich… Pigford is a clear example of when you handout free money because of the color of one skin, the freeloader will so up. Andy posted an except of a speech, she made very racist claims and the NACCP and Whitehouse (?) ( why are they so closely aligned btw ) jump into action…. This administration ( and the media that brought it to power ) demands the right to pick and choose what to cover and what is indeed racist. But… we continue to fuel their fire… this is a NON-ISSUE!!! and I for one, as of today will quit giving this handout queen and the racist circus around her and more brain cycles… Keep are heros safe… we are in a war for god sakes and if we gave our heros half as much god damn time in the news as this bottom feeder, we'd be better off
This woman is just the typical race-whore looking to make big bucks from her 15 minutes of fame.
Obama comes from a BLACK AFRICAN ARRAB TRIBE THAT KIDNAPPED AND SOLD AFRICANS INTO SLAVERY. What a bleeding joke it is for this idiots in America calling themselves "African-Americans" when they have never been, lived or have a clue about Africa! How pathetic to have something like 95% of blacks support what people Democrats/KKK Party – it was the Democrat Party that wouldn't allow them vote, it was they who belonged to the KKK. Idiots, it was a Republican President that fought a civil war to free the slaves, It was thousands and thousand of folks that fought in that war only to have some little pissant race whore come along with her ilk and attack America and the patriots that gave the bitch the freedom to do so. Like Africa so much? Great, leave now and live in a hut with no energy or sanitation.
BTW, since everything is about race and distractions from the disaster that the Democrat/Progressives have done to the country in the last four years since they took majority in both houses of congress and did everything possible to hurt American's for the sake of an election… Let's talk about race, Obama is 50% WHITE and 44% ARAB-AFRICAN.
Want to talk politics? He comes from five generations of COMMUNISTS!
Want to talk about agenda? Read the 'Weatherman manifesto" and know that the traitor and those around him don't represent America but are the front for the Jihad on America.
The most important defense to an action for defamation is "truth", which is an absolute defense to an action for defamation. This woman was and is a racist flame thrower that might have changed her mind about helping a farmer that wasn't one of her own and do her job but that doesn't change what she said, did and the vile things she is still saying.
This site should be called the BURNN (Breitbart United Racists Nonsense Network)
so you've given up on pedophilia cuz it doesn't work for you anymore? Poor troll, what have you moved on to?
Great point! Sherrod has attacked the former President and attacks Brieitbart using defamation while pretending to be a victim. Her own racist words and background make it clear that she is a racists. The only thing she has correct was that the NAACP is responsible for her being fired due to their lies and calling the Tea Party racists. It was the Obama regime and the NAACP responsible for her being fired. Brietbart posted a tape of her addressing the NAACP and showing all of us exactly what they are all about as the racist cheered at the racist remarks.
There, racists, racists, racists….I think we have all had enough of that word now that it means nothing. Guess it might be time to pull out the old "Rules for Radicals" and see what the next divisive plan might be. Let's see, I don't like the communist Obama agenda, I must be a racist. I don't like the half white president, not because he is half white but because he has damaged my country… I must be a racist.
sherrod is the first black racist to officially be elevated to the status of "Saint" by the JournoList Vast Left-Wing Media Conspiracy. The Messiah has is first Saint! Why it's just like the relationship between Jeremiah "GDA" Wright (The Vile, Racist Master) and hussein (The DIsciple).
There was nothing either "wacky" or out of the law sir. Slander and Liable must be intentional and clearly the AB case falls below that bar in so many ways. I have nothing against Ms. Sherrod. However I find it interesting that after she was informed that FOX had nothing to do with the story she continued her tirade against them. AB's comments were fairly clearly about reaction to Ms. Sherrod's words by members of the NAACP audience in response. Therefore, it seems the only foul done is by the White House and those race bating victim pimps whose sole purpose is to deflect failure from themselves and blame others. The COURT will decide the matter under the LAW and the LAW is clearly not on Ms. Sherrod's side which is why I doubt seriously she will file a case. But if she does, remember that discovery (that's a process for the intellectual midgets) is a two-edged sword and swings both ways in terms of what gets uncovered. I doubt given many of the words and some of the history of Ms. Sherrod that is coming to light that she will truly want to go down that path. Theoretically a court is color blind. People there are (Thanks to Dr. King) supposed to be judged with equal justice under the law. Any good judge is color blind and sees only the law.

Breitbart's wrongdoing stems in part from the slates he added to the edited tape, which stated that Ms. Sherrod conducted her duties at the USDA through a prism of race, followed immediately by the speech she gave at the NAACP dinner. His editing–specifically, the slates he added–was misleading in that it stated she did this at the USDA. As you know, her speech referred to the experience she had with the Spooners almost 30 years ago, when she did not work for the government. Another example of Breitbart's wrondoing is his mischaracterization of the audience's reaction. There is no clapping or cheering when she describes her experience. That's why most people are appalled by this. Breitbart's conduct has been shameful, and his refusal to apologize for what he did is dishonorable. Watch the entire tape and see for yourself, make up your own mind. Watch the edited version and read the slates for yourself.
When did Breitbart
tell Sherrod he wants Blacks to be Slaves again?
Maybe she is on that crack stuff….
One more thing Mr. Wizeup. When my two oldest children were in high school school, one third of the students attending were bussed in from a black section of the city. The guise was that every child should get a quality education. Yet when I would go over to their school on occasion, I noticed sadly that black kids were always standing around, in those days listening to boom boxes and smoking outside the grounds. One of the schools police officers (who was black) told me it disgusted him, that it was that way all the time, that they rarely went to class. At graduation for each of my daughters, there were approximately 800 students. Of those, two hundred received honors or high honors. Of those only two in each case were black, the rest were of other nationalities or white. This in a school that was attended 1/3rd by black students, young people who were neither encouraged by their families or who were so bogged down in drugs, gang violence and failure that they wouldn't even try. The two black kids in each class that excelled….middle class kids whose families lived in our neighborhood. Their parents were Republicans. My own black cousin attended HS in Los Angeles and was repeatedly beaten by other blacks because he was a straight A student. His black mother was a successful executive and his black grandfather was a licensed physician (MD). My cousin attended UCLA on an ROTC scholarship and graduated and is very successful today. His skin did not keep him from being successful. His attitude, hard work, lack of bitterness and his consistent perseverance made him successful. I come from a multi-racial family. Though I do not look at all Hispanic, I have lived in predominantly black areas of California where I have heard more racist slander against Whites and Latinos in everyday conversation than anywhere else in the country except Wisconsin. I know racism when I hear it buddy. It is ugly and it knows no specific color boundary nor does it infect only one people. You speak hateful and unforgiving things looking for vengeance for some perceived ill by others. One can only surmise that your are poor and a failure or so caught up in your hate you can't find the light of God within you. Either way, you are worthy of human pity and forgiveness, but tolerance of your hate is not coming from this corner and probably not a whole lot of other people responding to you either. We have no racism or prejudice in our family – there is no room for it being as we are Latino, French, African, Swedish, Jewish (even with relatives murdered at Buchenwald), Polish, Russian, Native American and English – we are proud MUTTS in our family and all of us pity you.
What do we call you John?
As I see things we have a my side vs. your side situation that can not win. Can we all agree that her father was murdered…reportedly by a white man…never convicted so the charge is still allegedly. That said…I am sure I can find at least 10 people in my region of the USA who have suffered the death of a loved one from the hands of a black man (not allegedy, actually convicted by a jury of his peers). How does that justify racism?
We the people have been snookerd into the my side vs your side…and that folks will be our demise. To quote Republican President A. Lincoln: "A house divided against itself cannot stand"…so I ask: "Will we stand or fall, are we all Americans and will we denounce racism from all citizens white and black or will we dissolve our Union along the boarders of color?"
The Tea Party's rallying cry is SMALLER GOVERNMENT which is code word for States Rights.
We know the Tea Party wants to gut the Civil Rights Amendment….. so put 2 and 2 together folks.
The Tea Party wants their country back all right. The Confederate States OF AMERICA!
Are you looking in the mirror. If so, be sure to tell that bigot he needs to consider getting a job.
This brain dead woman is a frickin IDIOT! She should be railing against the RACISM in the DOJ, White House, the Congressional Black Caucus and the NAACP! Breitbart did NOT fire her ignorant ass. The White House did!! There is no way the lame stream media can turn this HAG into Mother Theresa! Pfft. She's just a race-baiter like Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson and the fool who is head of the NAACP, Ben Jealous. What a bunch of goofballs!
Andy Breitbart has millions of supporters who will back him up all the way. The woman is a typical sue-happy, leftist LOSER. Leave her to her own stupid "Gimme" ideology. She will self destruct.
One more thing brain trust – it cannot be up to any court unless a lawsuit is filed and while there is some pontificating about it, the reality is, she has no legal case so any filing will amount to shakedown and harassment. But opening that can of worms is dangerous because discovery cuts both ways and her involvement with the delivery of the edited and misleading video clip to Mr. Breitbart (intended or otherwise) is a possibility. In discovery, every possible motive she might have had in cooperating with others in a potential conspiracy to defraud comes out. Fraud by the way carries potential jail time and not just civil penalties so unless she is absolutely completely innocent of any connection to the original and unedited video clips, she might actually end up in jail. Her lawyer knows that and so if she has no connection to the original edited or full video clips, then she could file, but her case would still not result in a victory or judgment against Breitbart UNLESS he lied about the condition of the original video clip. A man who has the paragonahs (small town in Utah I like to use in place of plums) to offer $100k for any real evidence of racism at the Washington rally against Marxist health care, probably knows the legal side of things fairly well and isn't phased by the next step (if any).
If you watch her entire NAACP speech, she talks about her prejudice against the white farmer because of blacks selling their farms for dirt cheap (as if that's the white man's fault that someone would sell it for next to nothing). Because of what she perceives as unfair treatment to blacks in general, she didn't want to dole out govt. handouts to a white farmer. HER WORDS. That's racism in it's purest form because she's not only prejudice, she's exerting her power and control over another person when she decides not to give him govt. money. Then without actually saying whether or not she gave him money at that point, it's assumed that she did not, because she speaks of sending him to 'one of his own,' and 'his own kind,' the white lawyer, TO HELP HIM DECLARE BANKRUPTCY! Gee, thanks for the help, Ms. Sherrod. Obviously, this white couple got money eventually, or SOME sort of 'assistance' from this woman, cause now they praise her for helping them save their farms. (Checks-in-the-mail works wonders, doesn't it? The votes of millionaire farmers have been bought by the likes of Tom Harkin and his corrupt Congressional cronies ever since FDR started this pimp process, so it's nothing new to hear recipients sing the praises of government employees who hand them checks, regardless of skin color. MONEY IS GREEN!). OR MAYBE THEY'RE THANKFUL FOR THE WHITE LAWYER RECOMMENDATION cause they were able to declare bankruptcy and wipe out all their debt, even without her cash payments from Washington like the black farmers got from Ms. Sherrod! Were there no black lawyers versed in bankruptcy code? Why doesn't someone ask THESE questions? How did she actually 'help' the couple at the expense of the rest of us? And for how long? Are they still getting checks? Do they even work the farm, or did govt. simply help 'save their farm' by making it so they can sit on their butts and never work the land? Why aren't they making enough off their crops to support themselves? If they can't complete, they SHOULD sell the farm to someone else who can make a profit.
And can you imagine the flack George Bush would be getting if someone in the USDA got up and said that a black was sent to 'THEIR OWN KIND" and 'ONE OF THEIR OWN?" Why isn't anyone talking about this? It sounds like segregation, where we can only go to certain people for help, or sit at certain lunch counters, or drink from certain water fountains, or attend certain schools. Never does this woman apologize or show remorse for her prejudicial views, even though she obviously defends herself and feels they were justified as a result of white prejudice against blacks. In fact, if you watch the video, she goes out of her way to say that it's not just an issue of white vs. black, but to a GREATER extent, rich vs. poor. WATCH THE VIDEO CAREFULLY….She deliberately says that it IS an issue of black vs. white, STILL, but just not to the extent of rich vs. poor. Why isn't anyone talking about that? This woman said it in her own works, no one elses…..skin color plays a role in her thinking. How shameless she is! Once again, the double standard is exposed, by the woman herself, and no one else.
And has anyone noticed how TIRED she sounds? Is she on medication? Sedatives? Just lazy perhaps? When I first heard her start giving her speech, bragging that govt. employees never get laid off, (words which I find highly offensive and which probably contributed to her being fired), I thought 'here's the type of person that only the govt. would hire because private businesses can't compete in the marketplace with tired employees like her.' So her first job was with a non-profit doling out govt. cash, and now she's closer to the source. We need to stop funding these socialist non-profits and start laying off govt. employees. Every year, the ratio of govt. jobs to private sector jobs increases. We're ALREADY socialist, so what's next? So what do you call a country where everyone works for the government? I'll give you a hint…it starts with the letter 'C' and ends with an 'ism.' And it's exactly what the regime wants. Do you?
never worked for me…that's idi's thing…he just can't stop talking about it…u too? I'm on to buggin' u obviously….hello?
I am not certain that some modest adjustment isn't necessary. The very act of filing was complicated beyond reason and in essence, the claimants probably have some valid arguments. I hate seeing more tax money squandered, but if the $1.25 Billion finally closes the door on this unfortunate redress of grievances, then pass the dang bill and bleed me one more time. Afterwords, it is just one more reason to tell the victim-sect to shut the hell up and be done with all the claims of racist rhetoric. YES IT IS ANOTHER SHAKEDOWN. Let us just say, it is the last one! This is one of those situations where I say, pay the ticket and let those of us who are from all races and conservative just get back on the road.
I don't need someone to "give" me a job, hopefully never will, and am happy providing for myself by myself quite nicely thank you.
still don't see what that has to do with you NOT being a lawyer. nice speculation tho…
oh u wish…
Obviously she is either lying or an accomplice in an attempt to trick AB. The ONLY way AB can be guilty of wrongdoing is if he was sent the full tape and edited it himself. It would be easy to prove that he was set up either by producing the original tape or CD he was given/sent, or by showing the email received with the attachment downloaded from the server back in March. Either way, if he was working from a sources edited tape and had no other knowledge, it's obviously a set-up to attempt to smear him as racist. That MSNBC, NBC and CNN have all carried the AB is a Racist mantra lends me to believe they might have stooped so low as to be in on it or at least in a media dog-eat-dog world, complicit with the lie (which doesn't surprise me). The fact that the unedited tape appeared literally hours after the damage was done tells me the entire affair was staged. It's clearly a Bill Ayres type of ploy. This woman is no victim. I think the plan was to get Glenn Beck to bite and he didn't, yet she and the NAACP have gone forward with the lie that FOX NEWS lead this story. It's an obvious set-up.
I'd say more the score is more like five or six points for Mr. Breitbart.
To quote Tony_Costine from a reply he posted here:
'He showed her speech, showed the NAACP clapping and laughing, showed Obama throw her under the bus, showed Obama pick her up from under the bus, dust her off and giver her a Coke, and now he's showing how unhinged she and her friends are.'
To all the above, I'd add that he's showing us the way that mainstream media is twisting and turning this whole charade. From the almighty NY Times on down to the lowliest blogs, everyone is sticking to the talking point of describing a snippet of a speech as 'heavily edited' or 'doctored'. The implication being, of course, that Mr. Breitbart and/or BigGovernment not only cut a larger snippet down to the 2-minute 36-second clip that wound up triggering this whole mess (inexplicably leaving in the part where she explains her redeeming 'turning point'), but that perhaps they rearranged the video or altered the audio on it, as well. Call a snippet a snippet. The only 'editing' on this clip is the 20-second text intro and the text overlay of the actual words spoken by Ms. Sherrod.
MSNBC has been propagating the outright lie that the clip Mr. Breitbart posted purposely didn't include Ms. Sherrod's 'turning point moment' (thus proving to their viewers that this was a right-wing smear tactic). This fiction was first spread on Olbermann who only showed the first minute or so of the 02:36 clip, then claimed to get the rest (with her revelatory moment) from the NAACP website. I nearly screamed when I saw this.
MSNBC added another chapter to their rewrite last night, when Chuck Todd, to counter Mr. Breitbart's claim of the original intention for posting the clip, made the suggestion that there was no laughing or positive audience response to Ms. Sherrod's racist remarks. When Todd aired the clip to 'let the viewers decide', they purposely showed only the first twenty seconds, stopping it right when she says '…but he had come to me for help'. 'No laughter here' was their evaluation. That Breitbart guy must be hallucinating the audience laughter he claims to be hearing. If only they had played the next eleven seconds when she explains 'I was trying to decide just how much help I was going to give him,' their 'Breitbart-is-hearing-black-racism-in-his-head' schtick would be exposed for the nonsense that it is. The enthusiastic laughter is clearly evident. The MSM is a joke, but these simpletons at MSNBC take the cake. In this digital age, where all the evidence can be easily examined, they think they can easily propagate their lies. The only real doctoring of the clip that I've seen is the selective editing by MSNBC in order to vilify Mr. Breitbart and FOX News.
I also love how every left-wing talking head has to bring up Glenn Beck as the bogeyman in this whole situation, still not realizing that Mr. Beck only aired the tape a day after she had been fired nor that he defended her from start to finish. Beck being a recovering alcoholic identified with her 'turning point moment' as he put it, and excoriated the USDA, NAACP, and Obama administration for jumping the gun to fire her without having reviewed any of the facts, without having viewed the last fifty seconds of the Breitbart clip (from about 01:45 or so), let alone her entire speech.
This most recent CNN appearance by Ms. Sherrod only reveals that she's not as enlightened as she appeared in the original clip. Her labeling of Mr. Breitbart and FOX as racists is evidence of that alone– she still seems to harbor deep resentment. This clip really gets going at about 03:13 when she rolls her eyes, wags her head and starts ranting– the woman is clearly coming unstuck. The right can only hope that she stays on the air because she is making herself look worse and worse with every appearance. Combine these appearances with the evaluation of her entire speech by Bozell in Media Matters (!!) and score for Mr. Breitbart just keeps getting higher.
I never said if I was or wasn't a lawyer, but it is fairly clear you are not. In fact I would suspect that were it not for affirmative action, you might not amount to anything because your arguments are absent any legal logic whatsoever. Of course an affirmative action lawyer can get far in this country. One believing in the 57 states, the E"p"antsipation of the people and corp"s"man clearly is evidence that as long as you espouse Marxist dogma and are coddled through acadamia, you can come on to and eventually marry your boss and rise to the presidency.
RIGHT ON WIZEUP!
Racists DO NOT like their reflection! Just like SATAN!
The doctored tape should be enough to put him away!
Foxy Newsy should be next!
Anderson Cooper is like most journalists NOT associated with FOX, a shill for the democratic (er, I mean MARXIST) party. He isn't even a believable journalist anyway and in fact, CNN went to la la land about 20 years ago.
You don't even know who I am sir. Your ignorance shines through!
She does sound sedated….the type of person only a govt. boss could love….the type who turns to govt. when no one else will hire you because businesses can't compete in the marketplace with people who sound like that.
There is no basis for a defamation lawsuit by Breitbart against Ms. Sherrod. Her comments are those of opinion, and are protected speech under the First Amendment. Breitbart, however, did appear to defame Ms. Sherrod by posting the claims about her in the video with actual knowledge of the falsity of those claims. At the beginning of the edited video, he claimed that she conducted her governmental duties through the prism of race, when he knew that the video referred to an experience 20+years ago when she did not work for the government. His comments since have made clear that he acted with something very much like actual malice, which is the highest standard Ms. Sherrod would have to meet to prove defamation (if she is regarded as a public figure because of her government employment). if she is not treated as public figure, the standard for proving defamation is lower than actual malice.
baby_gerald,
If you want a big part of the where this is going click on my sorebird moniker–Charles Sherrod is a civil rights hero and minister he graduated from a college with some kind of theology degree the same college has been railing against Beck and his show on liberation theology– BLT , as far as I can tell the college teaches BLT…
" Mr. James H. Cone, who is Jeremiah Wright’s spiritual mentor, explains his “black liberation theology”": has an article on the college site
It is no secret that there is a history of prejudice against certain races. Not just African American's but Native Americans, Chinese American's, Japanese American's, Irish American's, etc. We all know that it is not a history that anyone would wish for yet it is our history and remember it we must. The operative word however is history! We should acknowledge it… We should even remember it so that we do not repeat it but then move on! Do not relive it daily or use it as a crutch to justify failure.
Until we stop living in the past we will be condemned to it!
It is time to stop using the past and shun the Rev. Wright's, Jesse Jackson's and Al Sharpton's who preach it because unless they start preaching optimism and hard work instead of pessimism and entitlement they will remain Martin Luther King wanna be's and will continue to be a part of the past. Martin Luther King was a great man who preached optimism and dreamed of successes in equality that are being realized today. The others are mere charlatan's who have it in their best interest to maintain racial tension and a feeling of entitlement by keeping some in a perpetual state of psychological need. This gives them perceived power as leaders when they are clearly preventing the improvement of race relations.
Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes believable.
We should all be individually responsible for our successes and failures and claim ownership of them. In large part all races are given at least equal opportunity to succeed today. Are there examples of inequality? Of course there are but it is more rare than some would have us believe and I would submit that examples can be found of improper treatment due to the color of their skin, their age and even their sex for ALL races! Equality will grow stronger and more evident as we learn to stop blaming our difference's and start taking personal responsibility for our individual successes and failures.
Can you imagine if a white conservative stood up to an audience of the National Association for the Advancement of White People (NAAWP) speaking about all the injustices white people are receiving by having to deal with a Ms Black America and Black television channel's, Affirmative action, etc. There would be outrage and rightfully so! But the outrage should be demonstrated by all skin colors! We need to remember we are all American's with the same goals, hopes and dreams as the next person regardless of the color of our skin.
We must bond as a nation and collectively voice our outrage against all who would perpetuate hate and then capitalize from it regardless of who that hate is directed at. That includes not only those mentioned but also the other well known haters such as the Klan, the Black Panthers and any other individuals or organizations that preach it. In other words stop preaching against inequality and then turning your head when it is against another race of group of people. Recognize that inequality is wrong no matter the race. That is why the NAACP is a hypocritical organization that has outlived it's usefulness and is now justifying an existence that is no longer justifiable.
Search your soul! Are you really fighting for the future or are you living in the past? Do you recognize failure as a disease caused by race and success as luck or skin color or do you see it as the result of individual effort or lack of it? How about speaking of an optimistic future rather than citing a pessimistic past! Do you follow those who say they are for equality yet preach the past?
We can all become a part of the solution or remain a part of the problem! My life has not been one of privilege either yet I received no special favors nor do I expect them!
Examples of achieving success against excessively strong odds can be found throughout history if we search for it. It is unfortunately rarely taught but if you google George Washington Carver you will find the story of a man who achieved great success against overwhelming odds. He did it despite having every reason or excuse to give up. He did it by not looking back but dreaming forward and by working hard to achieve that dream. Good thing Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the good Rev. Wright were not around to remind him he was not supposed to succeed!
Please remember this next time you give a speech Shirley Sherrod. Speak of potential, speak of success, even speak of dreams but please leave skin color out of it! It is not skin color it is desire that creates success!
In the realm of utter nonsense, her statement rises to the level of concern over space aliens stealing our cathra and tin foil hat people calling out the conspiracies of the X-Files as actual true cases. She's lost all credibility whatsoever.
You must have eaten "STUPID" for your whole life. Burn in hell!
I guess when Bu$h, Wall St and your friends ripped OFF the country and left the incoming President with a load of "Bu$hit" you said nothing.
All the insider trading, hedge funds, swindling of people, tax cuts for the very rich was OK.
Racist discrimination against farmers who although winning in court are still refused their money , presently being fought by the Repukes claiming that they must get proof. Wall St lost loads of money and these same Repukes never asked for proof.
I guess it was matters of a different color. But that was OK for people like you.
$13 M is a big talking point for you but remember that was just a mere taking for one Wall St "thief" as a bonus. Not one is in jail!!!
I am sure wimps like you said NOTHING, I guess you may be one of them.
You people are just PURE RACISTS and exposing yourselves to the public domain under the guise of "concern for the economy". Just a bunch of hypocrites. Go to church tomorrow and ask forgiveness for the CRAP you are spouting here.
I shall pray for you
Well I guess YOU want your country back. Granparents were Native Americans I suppose??!!! Go find your teepee!
I guess they should walk or get a mule.
But even that you did not give them and their 40 acres.
You scumbag.
These type of comments do not carry us forward as a nation. I am sure you support the troops and want to go and fight for democracy in other countries and this is the type of CRAP you spread. Show the crap you write to one of your kids. Would you be a proud dad??
You are an excellent Brietbart crap eater and supporter. Look at you strying away from the original accusation to suit yourself. You racists are just funny! Remember it was the claim of discrimination, the audience, the NAACP etc…..now you reach to Marx. You racists are just funny!
Check This Out!!! http://richardemanuel.wordpress.com/2010/07/22/wh...
Breitbart has shown us definitively, what's exactly is wrong with journalism and the tone of our politics today. Forget Racism…. America is just getting plain stupid with tabloid journalism, and the lack of ethics in reporting and verifying sources. Isn't there enough news without trying to manufacture a news story?
Mr. Bill; It's very clear that you were not refused entry to the main floor of a theater as a child because you were Black. It's also obvious that you weren't afforded entry into college because you were Black. It's also very obvious that you weren't called nigger in Marine Corps boot camp and in Vietnam when all you wanted to do was serve your country. These memories are very difficult to put aside. Are you asking the Jews to forget the Holocaust? No, you're not. Then why on Earth are you asking Blacks to forget that their people were enslaved and mistreated for hundreds of years? That even some President of this country (Thomas Jefferson) took sexual advantage of slaves. Or that a President of the United States (Woodrow Wilson) allowed viewing of The Birth of a Nation at the Whitehouse.
I could go on forever. My point is, you want to forget history when it is uncomfortable for you. Will you first ask the Jews to forget the Holocaust? Why not??? Are you going to make up another rule or clarifier to say, "Oh. That's apples and oranges."? If you don't, then I would consider that as avoidance. (Cowardly behavior.)
A personal question for you; did you go to war for this country? If you didn't, then I regard you as another person who takes advantage of our freedom but was/is afraid to fight for it.
You talk a good game, Bill. Now, try being a man.

Without their preoccupation with racism the NAACP would have no reason to exist. These people listened to the portion of Sherrod's story where she was describing racist bahavior on her part and nodded, applauded and murmured support. Just watch them Deeply racist. In context with the Journolist discussions where Ackerman recommended falsely accusing conservatives of racism in order to distract them from the Reverend Wright story it is pretty clear that the NAACP and the Democrats and all the rest of the race pimps use accusations of racism in a purely manipulative and cynical way. End of story.
And exactly what is it you make of the fact that these same bankers donated far more heavily to Obama in the primaries and the election and to the Democrats than to the Republicans. What do you make of the fact that 9/10 of the highest recipients of donations from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the great enablers of the housing crash, were to Democrats with Barney Frank #1 and Chris Dodd #2? What do you make of the fact that the money lent in the original Bush bill has been repaid while the trillion given out by Obama to his buddies was not? What do you make of the extortionate tactics used by Rattner to intimidate the noteholders of the Chrysler bonds so they would give control of the emergent Chrysler to the UAW? Are you okay with all this????
If you watch the film, while Sherrod was describing her racist behavior towards the white farmer initially the NAACP members in the audience where applauding and murmuring agreement. Subsequent words are not exculpatory to the fact that the NAACP members were okay with her penalizing the white farmer. I also note that even in her later partially exculpatory comments there was nothing about actually reversing the damage she did to the white farmer. The bottom line was that her behavior in office was wrong, dead wrong. The fact that she later realized it is better than not realizing it but does not change the fact that her initial behavior was wrong.
In a nutshell, liberals stand for the destruction of America.
They hate business and free enterprise and want the federal government to control every important aspect of our lives.
They want to force us to join unions. They want to tell our children what to believe. They want total control over our health care and energy.
Sorry, you may think you are patriotic, but the things liberals stand for – those are completely foreign to what makes America great.
Liberals hate it when minorities escape the Democrat Plantation, where in exchange for their votes and souls, they get a few handouts now and then but are told they can't make it on their own without their Dem Masters.
You look so good in love, you want me it's easy to see. Hung any Black Americans today? Still hiding those little boys in the crawlspace of your home, dumdown or is it John Wayne Gacy? Weren't you a fundraiser for the Democrat party? Why, yes, I believe you were. A baby-raper/murderer was a fundraiser for the DemoTards–you must have been very proud of that one.
Your pissing your time away hassling your superiors a/k/a adults is all the proof that you have no marketable skills a person needs. Somebody steal your noose? Is that why your here? Gone through all the Muslim Dancing Boys? Or do you call it the Dating Game?

"I am just as much a patriot as any other citizen." Not if you're going to allow yourself to be played in this racism-based distraction the purpose of which has nothing to do with solving any social problems but rather the abetting of the Islamo-Communist revolution under way. Hung any Blacks lately? Or are you one of those throwbacks who childishly still tries to get away with using the "n" word by saying, "niggroe?"
You still seem to be averse to discussing your proclivity to bugger young boys. Your silence on that is stunningly loud and speaks volumes about your complicity in this most heinous of criminal and perverse behavior. Everybody knows you're guilty of this–here's a link to the downloadable video you forgot to have purged from the net to cover your politico-criminal activity:

Well, there she goes, again! Be careful !
Standing between Ms. Sherrod and Lefty 'reporters' and their AV equipment will become increasingly dangerous.
Hmm..Shirley made these same remarks about Fox news the other day. She does not seem creative in her racist rants. Limited like the NAACP, NBP, and other great class warfare groups. These comments may play well in Jeremiah Wright's little house of Liberation Theology worship house but not in the rest of America.
Ron first off thank you for your service.
Secondly you have no clue what my background is. You have no idea what names I have been called and what struggles I have endured. Because you are black you assume that only you have problems and your reply is exactly the narrow minded BIGOTRY and poor me attitude that keeps the African American's from becoming more successful. You are so eaten up with it that you can not see that I am clearly in your corner but unafraid to speak the truth like most are. You respond before you digest the message. I will stand by my words and if you open your eyes and start liking people and stop being so prejudice yourself you might learn that I was speaking for you not against you! It is a shame and it is a waste of an obviously intelligent person for you to be so full of anger and prejudice. It is in your interest and my interest that we do not have false leaders, Black Ms. Americas. It is like Obama said. Not a Black America or a White America but ONE AMERICA! You know Ron I can not imagine you as my neighbor because you would NEVER give me a chance to be your friend. That my friend makes you the one with the prejudice. Remember this. Not all whites are good people… but neither are all blacks. There are some of us who are good decent people who do not look down on anyone!
You assumed I did not serve our country. Does you being black make your service somehow more important than a white persons because that is the way I take it!
So… Let's just talk military my friend. I spent ten years in the service from 1970 to 1980 and I am very lucky to be here typing this. Difference is I have also done other things with my life. Nothing was given to me and I never cried because of it!
Now I will tell you that you DO NOT talk a good game. You talk the same lame game that everyone talks who would rather cry in their beer instead of bucking up and facing life! I never said to forget your past. In fact I encouraged you to remember it but not to dwell on it, use it for an excuse to fail or expect entitlements for it.
Here is EXACTLY what I said..
"It is no secret that there is a history of prejudice against certain races. Not just African American's but Native Americans, Chinese American's, Japanese American's, Irish American's, etc. We all know that it is not a history that anyone would wish for yet it is our history and remember it we must. The operative word however is history! We should acknowledge it… We should even remember it so that we do not repeat it but then move on! Do not relive it daily or use it as a crutch to justify failure.
Until we stop living in the past we will be condemned to it! "
So Ron… Why don't you buck up and be a man instead of writing to me to tell me how bad you have it and judging me like you have a right to! You are doing EXACTLY what you claim is being done to you!
Finally and for your information some of my best friends in the service, growing up and even now have been black. My neighbors are black and are among my best friends. You see Ron I do not see color. I only see people and want to help them but the attitude you displayed is exactly why you are actually worse than I am for being honest and if you think about it you know I am speaking sincerely and honestly. Nothing I said was an attack or prejudicial. The worst thing I said was that the leaders of the African American community do not have your best interest at heart. They are self serving and self aggrandizing hypocrites out for their own gain! If you take off your blinders then you know I am right. I actually like Al Sharpton but just not his hypocrisy!
Now for a little story that is VERY true! I went to high school in the 60s in the Birmingham Alabama area during the race riots and was in high school when the first black student was admitted. If you could find that black student named John then he would tell you a story. He would tell you how this white boy from Missouri did not see black and white he only saw a new person in school. He would tell you how his integration into a white school was perhaps one of the easiest in the South because this white boy befriended him the first day! He would tell you that the white boy actually had some difficulty for befriending a black man but over time the new student actually became quite popular as when people got to know him they found out he was just a person. That white boy from Missouri was me Ron so go easy on your judgements and go easy on your poor me judgmental attitude Ron because there are many of us who had rough lives not just you!
GLENN BECK AND FOX NEWS were the targest and Andrew Brietbart was the trigger finger of friendly fire–the target of which was FOX News and Glenn Beck– but Andrew missed the target because Glenn Beck saw it coming, as Andrew should have and may have ??– Glenn ducked and returned a devastating counter attack that took out Olinsky, the NAACP and the MSM all with one shot, Beck wisely took Ms Sherrod's side (and the left say's Beck is a clown and an idiot). Ms, Sherrod even attempted to set Beck up when she said; she was forced out because she was going to be on The Glenn Beck show—not in the way she anticipated though.
Here is very strong evidence, not proof, but given Olinsky tactics and the fact that they are being used daily in the MSM, NAACP and the side walks and halls of CONgress, this should come as no real stretch of the imagination either.
Union Community Responds to Glenn Beck⨠James Cone and Black Liberation Theology in the Spotlight
In a recent segment of his Fox news show, Glenn Beck took aim at Liberation Theology, especially that of Dr. James H. Cone, Union's Charles A. Briggs Distinguished Professor of Systematic Theology. Several Union students, faculty, alumni/ae and administrators have reacted to the program, in news articles, blog posts and even a YouTube video. Several are highlighted below.
I did some homework after I finally saw Ms Sherrod's speech; In her capacity of USDA recruiter for the giant corporate welfare arm of the USDA (USDA is nothing more than an arm of government corporate welfare–think ethanol as the number one example), to the NAACP in the light of Black Liberation Theology BLT (a Theology that appeared the NAACP audience members are familiar with)–pointed out to me in another thread, by poster BuddyTWD, where she almost had me converted due to the elitist verbiage she used–verbiage that I am very much in agreement with on the elitist points, because they are a Tea Party kind of stance, the difference is who the elitist actually are and the use of race as the means to take the elitist down and out–big government and big business alliance, but that is another thread altogether—back to the home work– and it was very refreshing and revealing, this bullet was meant for Glenn Beck and Breitbart was the friendly fire meant to take Beck out….
A little history on Ms Sheerod's husband Charles Sheerod a Theologian with a masters degree in something called sacred theology STM and a civil rights hero of I believe the black Power movement–not positive on the black power point….this is where it gets good— The degree is from Union Theological Seminary and their website is full of attacks on Glenn Beck for his show on Black & White Liberation Theology's or just Liberation Theology in general…..check this out
A quote and link from PBS Website http://www.pbs.org/thisfarbyfaith/witnesses/charl... I filled in the link to Union Theological Seminary :
It is often pointed out that Sherrod went to southwest Georgia and never left. After a brief sojourn in New York, where he received his master's degree in sacred theology from Union Theological Seminary http://www.utsnyc.edu/glennbeck in 1967, Sherrod returned to the Southwest Georgia Project for Community Education, where he served as director from 1961 to 1987. He also directed New Communities, Inc., a cooperative farming project, from 1969 to 1985. He served on the Albany City Commission from 1976 to 1990, and in 1996 ran unsuccessfully for Georgia State Senate. Sherrod currently works as a chaplain at the Georgia State Prison in Homerville, Georgia.

I dunno. Given the thin resume and incompetence of the guy at the top and the sheer idiocy of his #2, the law of averages says they *have* to have hired someone more qualified somewhere along the way.

Breitbart is "VICIOUS"- she got that right.
Republicans…especially the Tea Baggers are the most EVIL people on the face of this earth! Look at the Taliban and you'd see yourselves! You hide behind the bible of which you DO NOT READ and DO NOT LIVE BY! Christ is and always will be about LOVE! Not you tea bagging republicans…It's all about the WHITE MAN and how the WHITE MAN has or is being treated! Look at how the WHITE MAN has treated others throughout the years…Look at what the WHITE MAN did to take over land that wasn't his!
IF YOU HAVE NOT LOVE THEN YOU HAVE NOT CHRIST!
Christ: How can you say you love me whom you have NOT SEEN and HATE your brother who you SEE everyday?
Republican/Teabagger: It's my constitutional right!
Everyone who says Lord, Lord shall NOT enter into the kingdom of God!
A LIAR (Sarah Palin) will NOT inherit the Kingdom!
I found a couple of your old home movies, dumbdown. Enjoy. This is your Progressive ideology you defend.

If you're a racist and you know it, in addition to clapping your hands, go to "Big" sites and project, redirect and lie like Hell.
shut up troll.
Thanks for the response…
You know the NAACP and Shirley Sherrod are not going admit they're racists, even as she's claiming redemption. The only thing left for the NAACP and their enablers, are to repave the street with the best tar, with government and MSM aid, that money can buy. Facts trumped BS, so through the smoke and fire, Andrew Breitbart is clearly the winner.
I cant believe that the president even had to get involved. What is she the head of in the USDA, im sure its not just a desk job, come on. Besides that before her pivot point everyone in the crowd was nodding their heads basically show that they agreed with what she was saying. They act like they are past the white black situation when obviously they arent. Main streem media does not pick up on points like this. Like everyone says you have to look at the context that the way they speech was giving to the audience. This even shows the crowds reaction's to what she were saying.
as is with you…not a lawyer, just thinks he's one.
she's not only a Socialist she's WRONG!
im so sick of this race baiting. i voted for obama, but i didn't vote for this. no states rights over immigration, advocating affirmative action and calling all tea partiers racist. Ive actually started watching bill oreilly and glenn beck and noticed they talk about racism less than CNN or MSNBC. and when they do talk about racism like the black panthers or van jones, they are talking about people who are really racist and demanding action. it is clear that the liberals are becoming racists in their witch hunt for conservative racists.
She has got passed black vs, white, my ass, she doesn't fool anyone with half a brain. When she sees the health care debate as racist, I think that kind of proves the point.
