Naacp bigotry

[thoughtone]

I find it amusing that the so called liberal media is blaming the NAACP, Faux Snooze is blaming the White House [President Obama] and the NAACP is blaming the fact that they didn't want to appear as the racist Tea Party alleged they were.

The right winger activists such as Gunner have won the argument. The Obama administration goes out of their way to appease them when they attack. Candidate Obama disavowing Reverend Wright, firing Van Jones, retracting his accurate statements about the Skip Gates police harassment, disavowing ACORN on trumped up allegations and now Shirley Sherrod. President Obama has been trying work with these fascists ever since he took the oath and all they have done is try to destroy him.

Will this wake him up?

I agree with most of this but Wright had to go. Obama didn't disavow him at first but after his performance at the National Press Club, BO had to cut that anchor.

Dave I will never use Big Government as a source again. I'm passionate about politics just as you are. She was fired on faulty evidence. On a doctored tape. Politics is fun to all of us that's why we are here daily. She was driving and asked to pull over and resign. That shit was wrong.

Yes Que facts do matter you are right. When you fire this sister THE FIRST TO EVER HOLD HER POSITION. I'm pissed.

I hope she sue the pants off Brietbart, and excuse my language but F___ck
Glen Beck.

You know, I raised an issue early on in Post #3 pointing out that Shirley Sherrod wasn't an officer or board member of the NAACP. You completely ignored Post #3. I don't know whether you missed my point or, like Brietbart, you were smelling blood when at Post #4, you attempted to up the ante and at Post #5, off point, you stuck what you thought was the dagger into the heart of the matter with more of Brietbart's bullshit.

I agree with you, FACTS DO MATTER. But, I think the moral of the story is that facts matter first, not after you've been caught with your drawers down and you're compelled to issue a half-hearted, weak-kneed, soft-voiced apology.

Just like I despise when newspapers falsely accuse in big headlines on the front page and issue corrections in small print toward the back of the paper, I despise those who wrongfully rake others over the coals and, when caught wrong, say I fucked up, under their breath. It just seems to lack genuineness.

It hasn't gone unnoticed that you appear to rush in to this forum anytime you seem to have stumbled upon a GOTCHA moment. You don't hesitate to let the vile roll of your tongue and, typically, the name Obama is soon off your lips.

Its not whether you'll ever cite the big government website again. Its how soon will it be before you yell GOTCHA with the next wacko webpage or video that indulges in distorted facts to arrive at conclusions that fit your agenda?

Shirley Sherrod returns to the USDA</font size></center>

Shirley Sherrod will help the USDA improve its dismal civil rights record.

May 14, 2011





Shirley Sherrod, the U.S. Department of Agriculture employee who was forced out after a portion of a videotape was misleadingly used to show her making a racially insensitive remark, will start working for the USDA again, the department told POLITICO Friday. But she’s not getting her old job back.

Instead, Sherrod will help the USDA improve its dismal civil rights record.

Sherrod will be a contract employee leading one of three field programs designed to bolster relations between the USDA and minority farmers and ranchers. Support for the programs is among several recommendations contained in a sweeping, two-year study released Wednesday that examined decades of discrimination claims by African Americans, Latinos, women and Native Americans.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack commissioned the study shortly after taking office in 2009 — and well before he signed off on Sherrod’s dismissal in July 2010.

The three organizations — the Southwest Georgia Project for Community Education, the National Latino Farmers & Ranchers Trade Association and the Intertribal Agriculture Council — will target minority farmers in the Southeast, the Southwest and Native American reservations, said Justin DeJong, USDA deputy director of communications. The programs are “part of our continued effort to build a new civil rights era” after settling costly discrimination lawsuits brought by minority farmers.

Sherrod will run the Southwest Georgia project, which she co-founded, DeJong said. The program, he added, “is considered among the best southeastern regional organizations focused on the issues and populations affected by this assessment and has a strong relationship and understanding of the work of USDA.”

Sherrod, a former Georgia director of rural development for the USDA, was abruptly dismissed after a heavily edited online video seemed to show her describing how she once short-changed white farmers to settle old racial scores. Sherrod, who is African American, was speaking at an NAACP event at the time, and the White House approved of her dismissal when the video began to dominate the national news.

But the administration’s attempt at damage control led to embarrassment when it became clear that Sherrod’s remarks were taken out of context. She actually had recounted a personal story of racial healing. Vilsack — who took office on a promise to right past wrongs for minority farmers — personally apologized to Sherrod and offered her a job in the USDA’s civil rights division, but she turned him down.

Sherrod filed a $13 million defamation lawsuit against conservative activist Andrew Breitbart, who posted the partial video. He and co-defendant Larry O’Brien last month filed a motion to dismiss the case, which is pending in federal court in Washington.

DeJong said he did not know if Sherrod has been working, or where she has been working since she left the USDA, and Sherrod could not be reached for comment.
