Still not seeing anything on the web about today’s Hannity show. The Hannity website shows yesterday’s stuff. You got anything I can look at?

Also seems their “NAACP has a zero tolerance policy against racial discrimination”, didn’t kick in until the tape leaked out. They can say all they want, BS doesn’t count after the fact. Zero tolerance, the video would have shown naalcp admonishing her immediately and on camera.

The ‘money’ quote:

“Finally, we hope this incident will heighten Congress’s urgency in dealing with the well documented findings of discrimination toward black, Latino, Asian American and Native American farmers, as well as female farmers of all races.”

The fraudulent shakedown and rip off of the American taxpayer contines....(eye roll)

“Harvest of Lies: The Black Farmer Lawsuit Against the U.S. Department of Agriculture” by Louis T. March.

“...The Tea Party Federation took a step in that direction when it expelled the Tea Party Express over the weekend. Unfortunately, we have yet to hear from other leaders in the Tea Party movement like Dick Armey and Sarah Palin, who have been virtually silent on the “internal bigotry” issue.”

Unfortunately, we have yet to hear from leaders in the NAACP who have been virtually silent about the NBPP members threatening to murder “cracker babies” and police, Eric Holder’s apparent race-based enforcement of the law, and the racist and anti-Semitic Nation of Islam...

You should tell that to Howie Kurtz, who did his own creative editing of Rush Limbaugh the other weekend to make him look racist.

Sherrod admited her racism caused her to give this guy minimal help. That is plain as day.

The NAACP and Obama come out with egg on their face no matter how this ends. Just gotta love it.

C of a C here shares my opinion. Why did Breitbart not research this more thoroughly?

Shabby and low just like the liberal counterpart if you ask me. This gives the conservative movement’s credibility a black eye.

How could the audience have known the ending prior to her saying it. Was a playbill passed out?

What really bothers me about this woman’s story is that as she recalls this different kind of man telling her his long story, she was sitting there thinking that he is trying to prove that he is superior to her. She was also thinking well I’ll prove I’m superior to him by witholding some of the things I could do for him.

She wasn’t even listening to the details of this man’s situation, rather she was obsessing over race and racial superiority while this man was telling her every single detail, I am quite certain, because his farm is important to him, not because he is superior to her.

She is insane. She is obsessed with her race, and she cannot see anything past race. She does not deserve a position of power. Furthermore, if any white person had said anything even remotely close to this, I don’t care if that story ended in the North Pole with Santa Claus and Rudolph, that white person would be DONE FOR.

Kurtz is an idiot, that’s obvious.

It doesn’t take much to make the NAACP and Obama look bad. I don’t think it helps our cause to resort to.... “creative editing” ... to do that. Unfair as it may be, we are held to a higher standard than the libs.

Just put the shoe on the other foot and have a white official talking about how he “only did enough” to help a black farmer.

Rev Al, Rev Jackson, CNN and the NAACP would not be so understanding.

So are you defending this reverse racist or are you saying the thing didn’t occur and Andrew Breitbart made it from nothing?

It will be rebroadcast in 30 minutes, and no it does not give the conservative movement a black eye. She is a self-admitted racist who was at her job thinking about race and what she could personally do the even the situation.

She said this out loud and on tape, and the blatantly racist NAACP appluaded her.

I really do not care what she learned form her time as a racist government employee stickin’ it to whitey.

Why are you disappointed? Breit posted all he had of the video, which included her statement about it really being about the poor and not about race.

Breit's main agenda was in showing how the audience responded--the NAACP audience in March of this year--in approving of her story about how she discriminated against a white farmer. It was practically, Amen, sister.

the NAACP has had the whole tape from the beginning. They look like total idiots. And Sherrod helpfully named names from the WH in ordering her to quit on her car phone.

I'm pleased and proud of Breitbart. This was a triple-play.

Yes, that statement is textbook perfect. It hits all the rights notes and throws the matter right back in our faces. Also, the quality of the writing seems to be a cut or two better than what I remember from the NAACP in the past. It makes me wonder who wrote it.

Who started this whole racism dust up? They'd come after you from the left and beat on your corpse. They, at least, have balls unlike mushy centrists.(I mean conservatives with a conscience)

The audience knew where she was going with the story, because she told them that she once thought everything was about race, but then learned that she was wrong. The story about the white farmer was an illustration of that change.

Wow!! CNN is devoting the entire air time today to defend this woman...

Can any one remember CNN devoting ONE SECOND of air time to defend ANY conservative accused of racism?

I agree. If Breitbart had all of the tape, he released the part he did to flush out the larger part of this story: The racism in the NAACP.

Sherrod was not thrown under the bus by Breitbart. She was thrown under the bus first by the Obama administration and then by the NAACP. But once people came to her defense (I don’t believe she is innocent; she bragged about how little she did), the NAACP had to post the entire video, which, if anything, proves even more of Breitbart’s point: the NAACP is a racist organization way past relevancy.

Breitbart is not done—he plays his cards close to his chest, and he plays them well.

Beitbart said he released the tape that he had recieved.

It wasn’t the whole tape and he knew it and said so.
