Oh, please.

The woman wins a $13M lawsuit against the USDA, lands a big-salary job there, uses her position to practice her RACISM, which she asserts she has overcome, gets exposed for her racist comments, now she is a cause celebre, and we can’t get rid of her.

Breirbart, this one backfired BIGTIME.

My guess is Breirbart is not finished yet. But notice how all the “conservative” talking heads are groveling at her feet now. Sorry, but I don’t see the “amazing” contrition that even Ann Coulter gushes about.

I don’t think it backfired at all.

First of all, Obama once again demonstrated utter incompetence.

That’s a good thing.

Second, it’s driven yet another stake into the over-used “racism” charge. It is a necessary step (which I know a lot on our side don’t want, but it’s necessary) to treat the left just as they treat us.

That means, use Alinsky tactics, and yes when appropriate even charges of racism.

It will erode the effectiveness of those, for the left, when we treat them the same way. And best of all, eventually everyone will throw up their hands in frustration at everyone accusing everyone else of “racism” and say “THAT’S RIDICULOUS”.

Which will be when that word, no longer has such terrible effect for the left to use dishonestly.

This was necessary and the result is just fine imho.

I've read that her share of the settlement was $150,000.

Her husband though is a long time bud of Bill Errs and a SNCC member.

The 13 million dollar settlement was awarded to the farming cooperative that Sherrod was a part of. She got about $150,000 of that amount. I’m also pretty sure she and the other rural Georgia farmers would have preferred to have their farming cooperative treated fairly by the state and federal government.

“Breirbart, this one backfired BIGTIME.”

Not so fast. Th woman is still a racist no matter how the media tries to spin in this first 48 hours. Key now is to keep digging. My guess is there’s definitely a treasure trove of video and sound out there. Dig it up post it and trow this back in their smug faces.

oh, and don’t forget to continue to remind people that Obama is a racist for firing a black woman without knowing all the facts.

Breitbart has stated the video is meant to put focus on the NAACP--not Shirley Sherrod.

What backfired was the kneejerk idiot reaction from the White House.

“Breirbart, this one backfired BIGTIME.”

It wasn’t a victory without taking a couple hits but the victory is still Breitbart’s and ours.

The White House is twisting in the wind with a racist marxist holding all the cards and the more we research Sherrod - and remember that she says in the tape that “it’s still about black and white” - the more her racist and radical views will prove that Obama made two mistakes: firing her AND hiring her back.

Shake off the little injuries. Fight to win. This is war.

GO BREITBART!!!
