What has been done to her is a complete travesty and I am livid!

1. It is about growing as a human being

fuck Breitbastardbart and his ilk.

He said he was getting back at the NAACP and this was his way to do it. Selfish bastard.

[supernova]

2. Getting back at them for what?

Existing?

4. that's exactly it. He hates the NAACP for existing.

[MadMaddie]

5. That's part of it but they came out last week and

challanged the Tea Party to acknowledge that they are harboring racists.

This is going to get nasty and potentially dangerous.

13. They are racists. When will people wake up and

realize that? They are White Supremacists posing as 'activists'. They have found a new way to attack minorities, they think. I'm surprised the NAACP didn't finger Breitbart and O'Keefe and their backers, a long time ago. That is probably what they fear, they would naturally hate a watchdog organization that just might catch on to their activities, not they've hidden them entirely.

Their beef with ACORN was the CRA, the Bill that passed decades ago making it illegal to refuse to sell a house to minorities, and for banks to refuse loans to qualified black applicants. Their history goes back a long way, right back to the Civil Rights Era. These are they younger generation who will carry the torch forward.

It's way past time for our useless media to start reporting on these people. The fact that anyone still wonders why they do what they do, shows how bad our media is.

6. You aren't the only one

I hope she sues Breitbart ... Fox News ...

She needs her job BACK ... an apology ...

And i just blasted NBC Nightly News for only covering part of the story tonight. It's only on Countdown and Rachel Maddow we get the WHOLE story. :grr:

Shirley Sherrod is a classy lady who just gotten taken down by the lies and racial hatred that is Andrew Breitbart and the right wing.

7. I hope she gets anything and everything she wants

[malaise]

8. The only words to describe what Fox and Breitbart did to

her is a complete inversion of reality - up is fucking down.
I don't understand how when this broke last night I was able to say to hubby 'fucking ACORN crap again' but that didn't dawn on either the NAACP. Vilsack or whoever the fugg else.

The truth is that this administration will have to stop being so fucking defensive and demonstrate some confidence in their own people. How can you know the truth about FOX and yet react to all their fucking stupid soup droppings. I mean WTF did they learn after ACORN. The President is black and he's not a racist - stop fucking reacting - they are giving their worst enemies ammunition.

9. I guess I am the only one that finds her comments to still be disgusting

Yes what Fox News did was wrong to try and construe and mislead as to when this lecture took place, but her words still speak for themselves. I have seen the whole video and yes she does admit in the end that she saw the farmer for just being a poor man in need of help, but it's what she says in the beginning that is hard to overlook.

10. why is it hard to overlook?

15. I guess you are the only one. n/t

11. Thank you for posting this link

I wonder what will happen next.

[handmade34]

12. what I would like to see happen

is Ms. Sherrod's situation made right and then Fox News and Breitbart be made to pay... and have everyone finally realize just what is going on in this country

[blue sky at night]

14. it is a done deal.......

thanks for getting me going....I needed that!
