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.

She will never sue. Her racsim would come out and make her look so bad. Will never happen.

FYI.

Legal action because he PLAYED A PORTION OF HER OWN SPEECH AND HER OWN WORDS!!! Well that is indeed what the left considers and egregious, despicable attack...telling the truth about the left.

Of course she will sue, what better way to get Breitbart busy with dealing with this nonsense instead of having him focusing on bringing out the truth about progressives and this administration?

They have another distraction here.

These guys have been threatening him for at least a year now. Sue him, shut him down, arrest him.. Alinsky tactics for all to see.

More popcorn please. I can’t wait till they call the NAACP as a character witness for her.

” Shep Smith is on FOX right now misreporting the entire incident. Don’t know why FOX employs that idiot.”

To offer some semblance of liberalism.....

I never watch him anyway. To me he’s just filler between the nightly 6pm East Coast wrapup, and O’Reilly/Hannitys shows...

And I apologize if I'm coming across testy, it's just that I keep seeing the word "edit" in reference to Breitbart (one FB post has it that Andrew "heavily edited" the video), and that implies he altered the tape, changed her words to say what he wanted, not an accurate portrayal. The pedant in me has been all over the place to correct terminology by stressing 'excerpt'.

His point was the racism shown by the NAACP audience.

Which he made, regardless this woman got harassed by the WH to resign her post. Thanks for coming back and clearing me up. :)

No they weren’t.

And if I was on her jury, her suit would get nullified.

He didn’t fire her, Obama did. Thats where her lawsuit needs to go. Funny thing, they told her they were firing her for fear of what Glenn Beck would say... (that sounds like an illegal firing to me) and in point of fact Beck defended her.

Hmmm. Mizzzzz Sherrod could wind up under a bus if she did that. For real, this time. Real bus, real pain.

I’m not saying his implications were a lie, I’m saying that the libs will make such claims into a basis for a lawsuit. It’s like how they took stuff Bush or Rush or Sarah Palin never said and then twisted them, and then treated it as though they had said it. Remember, “I can see Russia from my house”? “British intelligence reports that Saddam tried to buy nuclear material”? “Things weren’t so bad for blacks under slavery”?

Trying to scare people from reporting the truth?

Just another nail in the coffin of free speech.

What about the person who gave Breitbart the excerpt? It had to be someone in the NAACP and they had to know how the whole speech compared to the excerpt. Is she going to sue them?
