It was extortion.

Eventually Vilsack will pay for this. He will be the scapegoat.

Race card? Shirley played the whole damn deck in her rambling racist speech.

You could cut the hate with a knife.

She and her husband are race hustlers in the mold of Jesse Jackson.

And very successful shakedown artists.

...more to come in the days ahead...

he was/is exactly the kind of racist “community organizer” (aka ACORN huckster) as Shirley Sherrod

what really is the difference (morally speaking) between Obama’s racism and Sherrod’s racism?

hard to tell them apart, except that one is POTUS and the other has just been thrown under the Obama bus

A must-read about Mr. and Mrs. Sherrod and their successful shakedown of fedgov:

From EXAMINER article:

Here are just a few questions about Ms. Sherrod that deserve answers:

•Was Ms. Sherrod’s USDA appointment an unspoken condition of her organization’s settlement?

•How much “debt forgiveness” is involved in USDA’s settlement with New Communities?

•Why were the Sherrods so deserving of a combined $300,000 in “pain and suffering” payments — amounts that far exceed the average payout thus far to everyone else? ($1.15 billion divided by 16,000 is about $72,000)?

•Given that New Communities wound down its operations so long ago (it appears that this occurred sometime during the late 1980s), what is really being done with that $13 million in settlement money?

Too bad Sean talked over the end of the letter.

The letter says it all and is perfectly fitting with the journOlist’s plan to divert attention from O’s failings by calling people on the right ‘racists’.

Knowing it’s not true but knowing it’s such a dastardly thing to do.

Yep, that’s their plan and thus far, it’s working, but I think it launched too early.

Hmm. According to you and others, it sounds like the full video contains MUCH WORSE statements than the small clip Mr. Breibart played.

re: race hustlers in mode of Jesse Jackson

yes, and Jesse is now blathering about how Obama should get involved and apologize to SHERROD..... about how this is ‘worse’ than the Cambridge police incident with Prof. Gates (which Jesse & co. still paint as racism by a white cop) — let us remember that the left never really ‘loses’ b/c even when some of their depravities are exposed they just go right on making it all up and telling their “stories” the way they want/imagine/fantasize things went down
