Rescheduled, not cancelled: Breitbart to get RNC invite

The Republican National Committee has cancelled a fundraiser with conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart, who is under fire for promoting an edited video that falsely portrays former Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod as having boasted about discriminating against a white farmer looking for her assistance.

Breitbart was scheduled to appear with RNC Chairman Michael Steele at a reception later this month in Beverly Hills.

Whoohoo! A new reason to shoot them down next time they call for money.

Cowards.

[bboop]

Mmm mmmm, RNC/ Michael Steele quietly takes sides WITH Shirley and the Black Caucus.

Why does he work for the Republicans?

[mylife]

We’re screwed.

These people are such pussies

[pabianice]

ObabaGoons have finished-off Breitbart. Smoothly done.

[Man50D]

Why do people keep insisting on returning to the OP(formerly the GOP)?

[tet68]

The RNC continues to fail to impress me.

[mylife]

Steele has to go!

[anniegetyourgun]

As opposed to the Dems?

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

The left is after this gentleman hammer and tong. It will be interesting to see if he can weather tha attacks.

I will go back to funding the RNC when it starts being Republican! Meanwhile I support conservative candidates running in any state.

With friends like this to back you up ... you need to take care of yourself

[ladyjane]

Steele takes time out from promoting himself and his book?

Who exactly is still giving money to the RNC?

[Moorings]

They are afraid of the criticisms that would come from the liberals. In other words, the liberals pretty much define how and what they do or don’t.

[The Comedian]

Mother effing cowards/collaborators in the RNC.

No words. No words suffice.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[Never on my watch]

... Andrew Breitbart, who is under fire for promoting an edited video that falsely portrays former Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod as having boasted about discriminating against a white farmer looking for her assistance.

So many lies in one sentence. It wasn't edited. It did not falsely portray her at all. She did boast about discriminating against a white farmer.

[MWestMom]

OMG! I’m so sick of these lily livered, yellow backed jerks! Do they not understand that they are walking the thin line just as much as the Dems are? Losers.

[BallyBill]

... morons....I’d give Andrew money before any of the RNC...more bang for the buck.

[paulycy]

RNC?
