Shirley Sherrod said Thursday she wants to discuss racial issues with President Obama,

OK beotch, axe him to get rid of the national association for the advancement of colored people, the united negro college fund, the congressional black cacus, black entertainment tv, the miss black USA (or America which ever it is), etc., and you may have a point. FU&BO.

I went back to look at the history of Shirley and her hubby Charles. He was a Civil Rights Activist but it appears, in the footsteps of Martin Luther, i.e., provocative but peaceful.

It may very well be that Shirley lost her father because of his activities. Regardless....a terrible way to lose a father.

I think these are good people BUT I don't believe in this reparations gig.

The NAACP tried to label the Tea Party as racist. Now people saw them laughing at a white persons expense.
The Tea party is not defending themselves over race, the NAACP and odumbo is. Backfired I think not

“Wait until these same people are running our health care system......”

Which begs the question no one has asked, how many white people has she had authority over through the years that were denied rights by her because they were white. I am betting that this black power against whites is epidemic in the government workplace and is a joke for many at the water coolers. Just out of curiosity, are there any statistics that show the percentages of various races that work in the federal government? The black population in the US is 13.5%. If the proportions are way out of line, this needs to be investigated.

My assessment of Breitbart on this one is, tactical hit, strategic blunder.

“My assessment of Breitbart on this one is, tactical hit, strategic blunder.”

Well FRiend, I guess we’ll disagree on this one. It takes a strong and gutsy move to make any kind of impact at all on such a tough situation like the use of the race card against us. ANd Sherrod is the perfect person to prove that there is ample racism to go around, plus she’s a marxist which is clearly good for our needs.

I see this as brave and strategically excellent because it is similar to the first bombardment of a castle. It doesn’t bring the castle down by itself or right away but it does cause enough damage for other assaults on the entire foundation of the structure. It provides an opening for further attacks. The whole structure finally gives way in at least one place and the battle is won.

Your mileage may vary.

I certainly hope you are correct!

I would love nothing better than to see the race trump card taken from our Marxist opponents.

No question about Sherrod being a Marxist.

Hope that gets as much exposure as her victim status.

That he didn’t, didn’t already have
And Cause never was the reason for the evening
Or the tropic of Sir Galahad.

If we keep picking at this wound it will expose LOTS of ugly stuff, all to the detriment of the racist marxists in this administration.

That is IF we keep at it...

I don’t think that the farmer acted superior at all. She just wanted an excuse not to help him all she could. Most farmers are down-to-earth and hard workers. If I was worried about losing my farm, I certainly wouldn’t act like I was better than the person assigned to help me. I doubt that he did.

Talk about luck! This woman just walked thru cow sh!# and will come out smelling like a rose. She will become a rich black racist with 15 minutes of fame guaranteed.

Her own words she can’t ‘hear’.

She just described Obama as an elitist out of touch with what the blacks experienced. Oh, he can ‘talk’ about it, he can ‘repeat’ things about it, but he never experienced it himself, in his pampered elite world...

“Breirbart, this one backfired BIGTIME.”

Not so fast. Th woman is still a racist no matter how the media tries to spin in this first 48 hours. Key now is to keep digging. My guess is there’s definitely a treasure trove of video and sound out there. Dig it up post it and trow this back in their smug faces.

oh, and don’t forget to continue to remind people that Obama is a racist for firing a black woman without knowing all the facts.

REally? Backfired?

Do you hear the media now, saying the Tea party is racist?

Me either.

Perfect. She can tell him how she knuckled down cracker farmers and he can regale her with stories from “Rev.” Jeremiah Wright’s racist sermons he sat through for 20 years.

A 'putting things in perspective' post of the day.

The farming cooperative disbanded over 20 years ago.

Disbanded? Try foreclosed on after being unfairly denied a loan.

Where did the money go?

The $13 million settlement went to members of the rural farm cooperative. Sherrod was a member of that group.

And was the cooperative really mistreated on the basis of race, or was it simply subject to the same “loving care” everybody gets at the hands of government agency apparatchiks?

A federal court found there was discrimination, specifically in the years 1981-1986 when the civil rights division of the USDA was closed.

You might want to read up on the specifics of Pigford vs. Vilsack before commenting on the outcome.

Why?

So they can liplock?

They are cut from the same cloth.

Your vaunted Ms Sherrod who actually got 300,000 of the 13 million awarded to her co-op for racial discrimination is a shakedown artist and is now preparing to sue Andrew Breitbart.

Does that make you happy too?

I'm not surprised to see you here defending a black extortionist for racial redress. I actually defended her myself for the tape being taken out of context but aside from that she is nothing but a socialist bigot seeking to get paid.

You can always be found on the "black" side here even if it defies conservatism. I will never understand why they give your little posse the pass they do here and good freepers get banned...probably at the bequest of your little gang.

I’d be interested to know how many white folk were done over by her racism and how many gained from her racism
