Former Agriculture Department official Shirley Sherrod said Thursday she wants to discuss racial issues with President Obama, who's "not someone who has experienced some of the things I've experienced in life."
But she also said on morning news shows she feels there is no need for Obama to apologize for her wretched week, which started with a conservative blogger posting controversial remarks she made, and led to her ouster as an Agriculture Department official and then, ultimately, apologies from both the White House and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack.

Sherrod said of Obama: "I'd like to help him see some of the things that he could do in the future."
"I really regret what they did. But as I said before, he's my president," Sherrod said. "When you get it down to where the rubber meets the road, I think you need to understand a little more what life is like. I'd love to talk to him, though, or people in his administration ... to help them understand."

Get her beer order in.
Some people in the administration have been acting “stupidly”. The NAACP, too.
AIRPLANE!!
Oh, please.
The woman wins a $13M lawsuit against the USDA, lands a big-salary job there, uses her position to practice her RACISM, which she asserts she has overcome, gets exposed for her racist comments, now she is a cause celebre, and we can’t get rid of her.
Breirbart, this one backfired BIGTIME.
Barack the Magic Negro lives in D.C.
The L.A. Times, they called him that
Cause hes not authentic like me.
Yeah, the guy from the L.A. paper
Said he makes guilty whites feel good
Theyll vote for him, and not for me
Cause hes not from the hood.
See, real black men, like Snoop Dog,
Or me, or Farrakhan
Have talked the talk, and walked the walk.
Not come in late and won!
Oh, Barack the Magic Negro, lives in D.C.
The L.A. Times, they called him that
Cause hes black, but not authentically.
Oh, Barack the Magic Negro, lives in D.C.
The L.A. Times, they called him that
Cause hes black, but not authentically.
Some say Baracks articulate
And bright and new and clean.
The media sure loves this guy,
A white interlopers dream!
But, when you vote for president,
Watch out, and dont be fooled!
Dont vote the Magic Negro in
Cause
Cause I wont have nothing after all these years of sacrifice
And I wont get justice. This is about justice. This isnt about me, its about justice.
Its about buffet. I dont have no buffet and there wont be any church contributions,
And therell be no cash in the collection plate.
There aint gonna be no cash money, no walkin around money, no phoning money.
Now, Barack going to come in here and ........
Maybe they could have a “beer fest” and afterwards appear on Oprah or maybe the View and talk about it.
...”President Obama, who’s “not someone who has experienced some of the things I’ve experienced in life.”
...she wants to school him on caste and class amongst blacks...she’s a Bama...big difference between her and Obama...in D.C. upscale blacks use the grocery bag test...if your face is lighter than that you have much higher status.
They can share a beer at the White House and spit at white people to show they are not racist.
Did anybody ask her what exactly the farmer did to show he was superior? Did he wear a crown or something. Seriously, she claims the farmer took a long time to show he was superior. I’d like to know what it is he did.
Shirley I have seen your tapes and interviews. I believe you to be sincere in what you say. But you stand a better chance of getting an attentive audience in the tea party when discussing “racial issue” than you ever will in the white house.
My guess is Breirbart is not finished yet. But notice how all the “conservative” talking heads are groveling at her feet now. Sorry, but I don’t see the “amazing” contrition that even Ann Coulter gushes about.
I don’t think it backfired at all.
First of all, Obama once again demonstrated utter incompetence.
That’s a good thing.
Second, it’s driven yet another stake into the over-used “racism” charge. It is a necessary step (which I know a lot on our side don’t want, but it’s necessary) to treat the left just as they treat us.
That means, use Alinsky tactics, and yes when appropriate even charges of racism.
It will erode the effectiveness of those, for the left, when we treat them the same way. And best of all, eventually everyone will throw up their hands in frustration at everyone accusing everyone else of “racism” and say “THAT’S RIDICULOUS”.
Which will be when that word, no longer has such terrible effect for the left to use dishonestly.
This was necessary and the result is just fine imho.
These fatass racists claim “they can’t be racists because they don’t have any power to act on it”.
Well guess what girlfrien...You do have some power, and you just exposed the NAACP as a racist organization. So did the bomber.
Nice work.
Apparently Zer0’s vision only extends for the next 24 hr.
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say the white farmer's daughter married a black. I don't mean it bad....I'm just wondering how he wound up in front of her in the first place. SAhe serves blacks. That's what she does. That WAS her job.
There is NO proof a white man killed her daddy and in fact it is statistically way more probable that a another black man killed him; but of course the first assumption is that evil crackers did it.
Please. Mrs. Sherrod you are the worst kind of racist. Using your position to meter out “racial justice”.
Her husband though is a long time bud of Bill Errs and a SNCC member.
That has got to be one of the funniest parodies that Shanklin has ever done.....
