How did they get printed signs so fast? I have ran for local office 7 times and it always takes me a couple weeks.

Code Pink and ANSWER are well-funded communist groups. They can get their signs done anytime.

She needs to get “one of her own kind” to file another big lawsuit and pocket some more of the productive class’s money.
Stick a fork in it, the USA is done.

What’s their excuse for not giving her back her same job? Why’s she being moved to another position? More $$$ maybe?

That looks like a DC government office building in the background ... and it looks like a protester holding a pitchfork in the foreground.
Normally, the DC/Capitol police frown on armed protesters ...
Perhaps some animals are more equal than others.

This isn't about Shirley Sherrod. It's about the NAACP members who approved of her former acts of racism by laughing during that part of her speech.

She has been offered the position of VP. Kills 2 birds with one stone.
To: ArrogantBustard
That’s pretty bad about the pitchfork. If we dared carry those, for more serious matters that affect the entire country (v. one person), I think we’d be slammed to the ground and hauled away! And painted as Rs (again)!

BINGO! It was so obvious. How many times did he saw “It was my fault” “I did it”, it was laughable. He doesn’t get an Oscar or even and Emmy for that crappy performance.

The difference between Sherrod and the thousands of whites charged with racism over the past few years is that the MSM worked to set the record straight on the Sherrod story.
