This isn't over yet. When the republicans retake congress there will be an investigation of Sherrod regarding her theft of taxpayer funds via the USDA settlement of bogus discrimination claims.

In fairness, it’s not the left who deserve the ‘thanks’ for drawing her into the spotlight. This entire situation was ill-conceived and totally avoidable.

It’s hard to guess now how it will ultimately play out, but momentum on the left is clearly building for the “Breitbart and Fox News are frauds” storyline. It will probably get carried too far, and cause a backlash, but we’ll see.

I can’t wait to hear what Michael Steele has to say about all this. I suspect his position just got a little bit safer, as Steele has already implied his troubles as chairman stem from being black.

Breitbart’s timing on this was spectacularly bad. We’re moving up on elections, with an advantage. The last thing we need right now is a race fight. Was trying to make a point about the NAACP really that important at this time? Have we forgotten already, from what happened in the democrat primaries, that Obama’s team will go after ANYONE who opposes them, even a former president of their own party, as a racist?

This should have gone away by now, and maybe by this weekend we won’t be hearing about it anymore. I hope that’s the case.
