And the racist NAACP members cheered and applauded as she described out she discriminated against a farmer simply because he was white! The NAACP are the racists!

Is that why the NAACP, which has accused the tea party of overt racism without any evidence whatsoever, was applauding her as she spoke?

Did she get to the turning point of her story at the beginning?

Or did the audience think it was applauding the recollection of institutionalized racism being issued by one of their own kind against a person of another kind?

If she gave the speech 24 years ago she would have been about 18 at the time.

>> White people aren’t allowed to have White Groups.

Technically, we ARE allowed to have White groups, but they’re frowned upon (and infiltrated by the FBI). :-)

...a white farmer who clearly wanted to make sure she knew he was superior to her.

Who says so? I must have missed the white farmer's take on this on the tape.

Its no misrepresentation to point out she sent the guy to “One of his own kind” for help.

Its not misrpersentation to point out she felt there was a problem in helping a white person.

Who cares how her speech ended? If ANY white person said this they would be GONE! Regardless of the ending.

And yes we should up the ante on the left and make them play defense just as they do our side. We should cut her no slack and treat her like any member of the GOP or NRA would be.

And why are people on the right feeling sorry for this partisan race baiting wrench Sherrod? I have never seen this kind of defense for any other liberal hack. I really hope we arent at a point where white conservatives have special preferential treatment for liberal blacks.

Whitey’s fault. That’s all they need.

Shirley Sherrod has not convinced me that she's not a racist because of the phrases she used like, “his own kind”. I'm also not convinced that she helped white farmers as much as other farmers because she said she didn't.

“Are you suggesting that we should mimic the left in that respect? To look at all human beings as either prey or predator?”

Since all Democrats are either prey or predator we should look at them in that way.

Conservatives fight political war the way the left wants us to fight the war on terror.

I agree I am sick of Redstate, he said both the right and left use race for their own political ends. We are all Americans, the left is the one that only see color.

What gave it away? The source of the acronym maybe? :-)

Secretary of Ag is to testify on hill tomorrow (I think) but original intent was to talk over the incredibly stupid things he wants to do to the farm bill - think Michelle’s fake garden. Should be interesting.

No one took anyone down no matter what the cost other than Barack Hussein Obama.

Breitbart’s point in showing the tape was to show the NAACP applauding her racist story, while at the same time they accuse the tea party of racism with no evidence whatsoever.

I do believe that she was racist. She said as much. I’m glad she realized that she was wrong, but I don’t want her or anyone like her in a position of power, should she happen to change her mind again.

No sympathy here.
How much did she clip the DOA for ? $13 million ?
No sympathy for Barky’s over-reaction either.

Get your facts straight! Her speech was about something that happened 24 YEARS AGO!

Conservs believe people can be redeemed. The Dums and their fellow travelers believe once a racist ALWAYS a racist. (Whitey is ALWAYS a racist, if someone OTHER than a black makes a stupid remark, no amt of apoligies will clear the air.)

Maybe Beck hasn’t heard about the 13 million she and her husbands little org got in a settlement with the FEDS. FOR RACISM!!!!!

Mercy and justice are things you have to be willing to give in order to receive.

This witch Sherrod practically giggled as she told the NAACP audience how she had snookered the White man farmer. How in the heck is that “out of context”? Obama’s racist agenda and the activists he put in place are finally being exposed. Breitbart is a hero as far as I’m concerned.
