“So-called conservatives eating their own yet again.”
In this case, I’m not sure I agree with this. We conservatives are humans and, as such, capable of errors too.
When we make mistakes, we need to be big enough to admit it.
I like Andrew Breitbart very much....but he should have explained that this was “out of context” or more clearly explained why he was showing these excerpts.

I also agree with the author. Breibart has done some admirable stuff in the past, but he devalued his brand here.

I would never claim that we are above mistakes. I admit that for a brief moment, I started to feel sorry for her as well. But Breitbart offered the clip as-is, without making any commentary on Sherrod. The blowback she got was from the Obama admin and the NAALCP throwing her under the bus so quick it made your head spin. AB did not call for her head, he was using that tape as a weapon against the NAALCP. Her job was collateral damage.
I would agree that AB should be a bit more careful about this kind of thing in the future. Not because I think he did anything wrong, but because of how we start every game down 3 touchdowns.
