Former Agriculture Department official Shirley Sherrod said Thursday that she would consider legal action against the conservative blogger who posted the video that led to her ouster.

Speaking on CBS' Early Show, Sherrod said that while she hasn't actively talked about suing Andrew Breitbart, she "would definitely consider it."

Sherrod said that Breitbart's intentions were obvious - but misguided.

NP, Defiant, and I also agree that libs would invent or twist whatever they need to advance their position.

[GreenAccord]

Imagine how strong of a case she would have if she had clear evidence of a cabal of bloggers conspiring to defame and undermine her. Imagine if this cabal was named blogolist and the members of said list had openly planned ways to unify their message of hate, even before they knew thing one about her. Man, would she ever have a case!

[Ancient Drive]

yup.. this smells like she’s setting up a Fed Lawsuit to her benefit. Hey, Federal Government acting all superior on her you know..

Hey, Federal Government acting all superior on her you know..

Given 0bama's actions would she be wrong about that? lol

I'm afraid she doesn't see that though.

This racist woman is doing a helluva job turning what positive image she had into a mass of negatives.

I was born a poor, black, racist child. But I got better.

Brietbart should reveal his source- the idiot should have given him the whole 45 minutes

i think it was a setup of Breitbart- but he STILL played it masterfully

The white house even fell for it

Breitbart correctly pointed out that the NAACP audience id the bigger issue here- when she was explaining how she acted racist toward some white farmers they were ALL FOR IT!

Shepard Smith must have the lowest ratings on FOX. I never watch him. I avoid his show and O’Reilly.

I’ve been wondering how O’Reilly is taking the fact that everyone is finally acknowledging that it was Hannity who broke the Rev. Wright story. O’Reilly tried to take credit for it, but we all knew he was lying.

[longtermmemmory]

O Reily is riding on Glen Beck’s coat tails.

OReily should just go. He was and is just a tabloid newsreader.

as for smith, he has no place around real news.

The only reason those two have ratings is because cnn and msnbc and the networks are sooooooo bad.

[freespirited]

Oh, you mean like what Media Matters and MSNBC does to various conservatives about fifty times a day?

Precisely.

[freespirited]

if the excerpt showed her in a false light,. it was due to NAACCP editing- not Breibart. He posted what they released!

I am under the impression that his source was not the NAACP but someone else who sent him the edited clips. Maybe he ought to reveal who that person is but I dont think he will.

Doesnt the NAACP sound ridiculous claiming they were snookered by Andrew when it was their own event?!!

[Vendome]

go ahead and try. You don’t have a leg to stand, even if your middle name is Eileen.

You did say it, you did do it and even admitted such. Your audience was cheering your reprehensible story at that exact moment and it is who they are and what views they hold.

That was the point of the video, not your come to Jesus moment some 20 minutes later in the story, which seemed contrived, at best.

The old Republican Dick Tuck is now Democrat's Dick Marx.

I had to look that up. Interesting story. Isn’t Joe Biden sort of an unintentional Dick Tuck? lol

[chris_bdba]

How? The tape was made in a meeting and you knew it was.Breibart did not edit it as the left is telling everyone. Go ahead and waste your money Breibart will beat you like a cheap drum.

[chris_bdba]

"ah yes now we can all see that she is a victim and deserves money for her own racism and stupidity. Finally Affirmative Action has been outed as a joke. These people including Obama have set race relations back 75 years and they are too ignorant to see it. The race card has disappeared from the deck."

Basically the race card has now become the Joker! LOL

[bruinbirdman]

"Isn’t Joe Biden sort of an unintentional Dick Tuck?"

Joe Biden is the intentional fall guy. Anytime the commies need a diversion from the issues they trot him out.

He is an old time lefty pol who knows exactly what he's doing.

Dem Dick Tuck/Marx would be SEIU/ACORN operatives who show up at Tea Parties with nazi signs or paint swastikas on lawns in black neighborhoods; college teaching assistants who hang nooses on dorm room door knobs.

The American people should demand an investigation into just how Shakedown Shirley
and Charlie Sherrod managed to grab $ 300,000 from the taxpayers for their
“ pain and suffering “ in July 2009,
during the reign of Barry.
There may also be an unspecified amount in forgiveness of debt.
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/Examiner-Opinion-Zone/Shirley-Sherrods-Disappearing-Act-Not-So-Fast-98846149.html#ixzz0uSYtTiPL

An audit should be conducted into the 13 million Barry
gave Shakedown Shirley’s “ New Communities “ foundation last year.
Ditto the 1 billion ( that’s a “ B “ ) that taxpayers have paid black farmers and those
who “ attempted to farm “ in what amounts to reparations.
A bunch of wimpy hand ringers on the right got snookered and faint yesterday
and threw Breitbart under the bus without doing due diligence
on Shakedown Shirley’s full , anti white, anti Republican , racist NAACP speech.
I understand that Rush was not one of the hand wringers and saw through Shirley’s phony redemption speech.
Good for him.

She married to the head of SNCC after Stokely Carmichael absconded to Cuba. She is a marxist whore who uses race like every other Marxist whore. Who Cares what she thinks or feels. She is a malignant cancer in the body politic.
