if you listen to her whole speech/story..........she saw the error of her ways and that was the point of the speech. she was ultimately talking about moving out of racism into becoming color blind. Breitbart’s point was that the NAACP crowd was applauding/approviing her early racist stance, early on in the speech — that is what everyone seized upon. it would be ironic if the Tea Party came to her defense.

I think they should--at least to defend hearing the rest of the speech. It's possible some is still wrong. Perhaps she still has the idea that the public is going to her and not to the government as she sits in her position of power...who knows. But it should be heard, at least.

I understand exactly what Breitbart was doing, however it does not excuse what she said, much as some would like us to move on.
I listened to what has been played, perhaps there is more that I have not heard. However, her part about having a revelation was jumbled, and she said it wasn’t about black and white, but it WAS about black and white. Is she trying to have it both ways?
So, please tell me what I might have missed in which she talks about becoming color blind, because I don’t recall that, so maybe it is in some part of the tape I didn’t see.
