Reparations by any other name.


Until you call it Reparations, they’ll always come back for more (reparations). Of course, even if you gave ‘em reparations, it still wouldn’t be enough. This article made me very angry.

The "our people" in question, of course, are black people. With this new voice, the Sherrods will help "stop the white man and his Uncle Toms from stealing our elections. We must not be afraid to vote black."

Are these actual quotes from January 2010? Can you imagine the outrage if a white person said "stop the black man from stealing our elections"?

I'd be curious to see a picture of the house these Sherrods live in.

'Five years of drought' sounds like the sort of excuse the Soviets used to make for why communism didn't work.

Don't most farmers have sprinklers these days?

It was all Breitbart had. The NAACP was in the best position to release the rest of the tape. Instead, they made a panic move to CYA now that at least a few on our side are punching back on this racism BS.

I don’t know how Sherrod thinks she can win a libel case against Breitbart but then it would appear she’s made some bank in the past via questionable law suits.

Just exactly like Katrina!

Hate drought, hate hurricane, hate leveees . . . are we the only ones who can connect the dots here?

Co-sponsoring the bill was none other than U.S. Senator Barack Obama. In February of 2010, the Obama administration settled with the aggrieved 70,000 for $1.25 billion that the government did not have to give.

This money, by the way, was finessed out of a defense appropriation bill.

That's what I thought I had heard. Someone was probably trying to set him up with a race-baiting charge.

Blacks shaking down the system as usual. Pathetic.


We need to stop paying. I know it could bring economic collapse and chaos but we’re getting there anyway.

I am hearing more and more people say, “bring it.” It’s about time for this game to end.

The video was not edited; it was an excerpt.

Stop with the robotronic litany of a non-difference. Excerpting is a part of editing. Any excerpt is an extract edited out of a bigger piece.

That might apply IF it had been about Sherrod and not the NAACP's reaction to her story and IF the clip hadn't included her saying "it's not about black and........well it IS about black and white but it's about the haves and have nots" (paraphrased)

The problem is it was always about the reaction of the NAACP and when they threw Saint Shirley under the bus it took the focus off of them.

I think the possibility of a set up is quite realistic. Why didn’t NACCP respond by releasing the complete video?

Yes,

The real story — Sherrod’s case and the ‘settlement for 70 thousand’ is a stat case of pure and massive racial extortion of the worst kind.

Stop with the robotronic litany of a non-difference.

Excerpt - Merriam Webster

excerpt : to select (a passage) for quoting

edit - Merriam Webster

edit : to assemble (as a moving picture or tape recording) by cutting and rearranging

Words mean something and they DO make a difference.

I posted from Merriam Webster. And words have meaning. The more the press pounds that this was an edited tape the more people believe that Breitbart hung together some pieces to change their meaning rather than it being an excerpt.

YOU have some damn commonsense. Words have MEANING.

You gave this definition for excerpt:
excerpt : to select (a passage) for quoting

Webster's 1913 Dictionary:

EDIT \Ed"it\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Edited}; p. pr. & vb. n. {Editing}.] [F. ['e]diter, or L. editus, p. p. of edere to give out, put forth, publish; e out + dare to give. See {Date} a point of time.]

To superintend the publication of; to revise and prepare for publication; to select, correct, arrange, etc., the matter of, for publication; as, to edit a newspaper.

The verbs edit and excerpt BOTH can be used to describe the action of cutting out.
