The Pigford Scandal. Chances are you’ve never heard about it unless you frequent Andrew Breitbart’s websites- which is unfortunate given the level of corruption involved.

Breitbart’s Big Government has been leading the charge on the investigation, yet the mainstream media has remained completely silent. I wonder why? If you are unfamiliar with the scandal, please take a look at this blog post which explains everything in the most simplistic manner possible. It is a very complex issue, but the more people know about it, the better.

Here’s an exclusive interview of Rep. Steve King with documentarian Lee Stranahan looking into the cover-up as well as touching base on Shirley Sherrod. A fantastic place for Pigford investigative resources- not surprisingly- is also at Big Government. Take a look at this extensive list that they compiled.

You know, I haven't bothered with this topic as there are plenty of others who are bringing attention to it.

Will the hue and cry be it doesn't matter, there are more important things to worry about or that the people following this are crazy?

Breitbart’s Big Government has been leading the charge

An inconvenient fact for those on FR who have thrown Andrew Brietbart under the bus for being friendly with "gay conservatives" and for being a libertarian.

As I have always said: you don't have to agree with your allies 100% in order to benefit from their work. This is true in Brietbart's work on the Pigford case.

The video of Steve King is not working...He’s one of the good guys in DC....too bad he doesn’t get the support from his colleagues that we expect and were promised at election time. They just don’t know what it means to keep their word!

This is definitely an issue that needs a huge spotlight on it. Rotten to the core.
