0bama will name her some kind of “Czar” within a month.

And the media will hail it as a brilliant political move.

Always great to see a member of the Black Klan taken down. Especially since she was using my tax dollars to advance her racist cause.

from a previous thread, post # 68 by kcvl

Shirley’s work began in 1965 as an organizer with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Southwest Georgia Project. She helped to start the land trust, New Communities, Inc., that had 6,000 acres of land.

Shirley Sherrod was appointed Georgia Director for Rural Development by Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack on July 25.

Only days earlier, she learned that New Communities, a group she founded with her husband and other families has won a thirteen million dollar settlement in the minority farmers law suit Pigford vs Vilsack.

Minority Farm Settlement

We have wonderful news regarding the case of New Communities, Inc., the land trust that Shirley and Charles Sherrod established, with other black farm families in the 1960’s. At the time, with holdings of almost 6,000 acres, this was the largest tract of black-owned land in the country. Now with a cash award of historic proportions, the group will be able to begin again.

In 1969, New Communities received a planning grant from OEO and was encouraged to expect substantial funding for implementation, but Governor Maddox would not permit further funds for the group to come into the state.

Nevertheless, New Communities built up farming operations to help retain the land. They had highway frontage where they had a farmers market to sell their crops. They raised hogs and sold the processed meat in a smokehouse they built on the highway. Their sugar cane mill on the highway also attracted customers. New Communities was ahead of the times in raising eight acres of Muscatine grapes, which are now widely grown in the area. They also farmed 1,500 acres of row crops, including corn, peanuts and soybeans.

Charles and Shirley Sherrod, and others formed New Communities, Inc. – the nation’s very first community land trust

the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and othergovernmental agencies did not grant loans or allow the restructuring of existingloans. This factor, when combined with debt and a drought, led New Communitiesto lose all of its land by 1985. However, the story was not over

A lawsuit was launched, claiming discrimination by the USDA. In 2009, nearlyforty years after the founding of New Communities, an historic cash settlementwas awarded. New Communities is slated to receive nearly 13 million dollars,mostly for loss of land and income.

This administration is the most racist regime I’ve seen in my lifetime. The Democrat Party has a long history of racism — from fighting for slavery, to fighting against civil rights for former slaves and blacks, to imprisoning minorities in the state welfare system, and now to blatantly abuse white people, whether it be verbally abusing a city police officer doing his duty, to fabricating acts of racial hatred at Tea Party rallies, to calling those who desire to protect our borders racists, to hanging a farmer out to dry.

We all need to write the NAACP to show our
forgiving nature - enclosing a cracker.

It wasn’t about this one person’s racism, it was about the entire room full of people she was talking to and trying to impress.

She got what she deserved. I get the sense that she was sort of embellishing what happened towards what she thought the "good people" of the NAACP would like to hear. Pretty telling.

I have an idea for Breitbart, someone get this idea to him quick. Before he releases another video like this, he should hire actors to act out the scene in REVERSE. For example, he would make a grainy video of a white audienced business meeting, where a white USDA official would tell the story of an "uppity" poor black farmer, whom he decided not to do much for, "just enough", and then refer him to a black lawyer so they could "take care of their own". Use the exact same wording otherwise. Then release THAT video first, allow the howling and outrage to build, then expose it as a fake, and then release the REAL thing. WHAM!

Good. But we can't let the Democrats try to sweep her quietly under the carpet and then pretend that her racism never happened. This has to be stapled to the back of every single Democrat this fall, like a "kick me" sign, or, to use another simile, hung around their necks like the fat greasy albatross it is.

I admit, I get a kick out of her self satisfied delivery during that video clip.

This crew really is naturally obnoxious, huh?

Bretibart has become my hero ahead of all the rest of them. He’s actually DOING things, not just talking.
