Glad she referred him to his "own kind." Hopefully his "own kind" was able to help him. I'm sure that crowd was livid about what they heard and immediately proposed an NAACP endorsed resolution that asks the USDA to renounce their racist employees.

I just don't understand why the NAACP hangs around with racists...they must cleanse them from their midst. Oh wait.

Gateway Pundit

I’m a warrior trained by Khallid Muhammad
I’m a terrorist trained by Osama Bin Laden
Demolitionist, breaking down the walls of the rotten
Never hit and miss
First time, take out your target…

Hittin back, bust a cops’ a$$ son with a bat
And after that split a jackhammer to his rackin’ back
And look ‘em in his eye, tell us what he did for that

I will snatch you, break you down, kick you and bat you
I had to Break your molecules and regraft you

Muhammad referred to Jews as people whose ancestors were cannibals who “crawled around on all fours in the caves and hills of Europe” and “slept in [their] urination and [their] defecation... for 2,000 years.” He characterized contemporary Jews as “slumlords in the black community” who were busy “sucking our [blacks’] blood on a daily and consistent basis.”

He said that Jews had provoked Adolf Hitler when they “went in there, in Germany, the way they do everywhere they go, and they supplanted, they usurped.” And he declared that blacks, in retribution against South African whites of the apartheid era, should “kill the women,…kill the children,…kill the babies,…kill the blind,…kill the crippled,…kill the ******,…kill the lesbian,...kill them all.”

On subsequent occasions, Muhammad praised Colin Ferguson, a black man who had shot some twenty white and Asian commuters (killing six of them) in a racially motivated 1993 shooting spree aboard a New York commuter train, as a hero who possessed the courage to “just kill every damn cracker that he saw.” He advised blacks that “there are no good crackers, and if you find one, kill him before he changes.”

He told a Donahue television audience in May 1994 that “[t]here is a little bit of Hitler in all white people.” He characterized black conservatives as “boot-licking, butt-licking, bamboozled, half-baked, half-fried, sissified, punkified, pasteurized, homogenized ******.” On May 21, 1997 he told a San Francisco State University audience that the "white man" is "a no-good bastard.

He's not a devil, the white man is the Devil." In September 1997 he said, "If you say you're white, dammit I'm against you. If you're a Jew, I'm against you. Whatever the hell you want to call yourself, I'm against you."

"There is not a member of the black masses in the United States who is not proud of the example set by Cuba and its revolution, with Comandante Fidel at its head"
Louis Farrakhan, Santiago de Cuba, February, 1998:

False Cries of Racism … NAACP Call Tea Party Racist But Has No Issue with Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan | Scared Monkeys

The NAACP has a hell of a lot of nerve to call others racists and support Minister Louis Farrakhan. A hell of a lot indeed. They seem to be attacking the fiscally responsible Tea Party movement not because they are racist, but more to the point because their responsible thinking is a direct threat to their Chosen One, Barack Hussein Obama.

Don't hold your breath waiting on an LG appearance. This is clearly all Tea Party propaganda and he will have nothing to do with it.

On a serious note... if a white person had made any of the racial statements she made (in the first or second video) they would be out of a job within a week and the news media uproar would be deafening.

I'm not, trust me. A LG has told us dems and black people are never racist.

There is clearly a double standard, one that we all should be used. It's still very frustrating even though we know how these issues will be handled.

USDA employee says statements on white farmer misconstrued - CNN.com

she says her remarks were misconstrued, and it looks like her PR consultant is LG

Sherrod said Tuesday that it was "unfortunate that the NAACP would make a statement without even checking to see what happened. This was 24 years ago, and I'm telling a story to try to unite people."

She said she tried to explain to USDA officials, "but for some reason, the stuff Fox and the Tea Party does is scaring the administration. I told them to get the whole tape and look at the whole tape and see how I tell people we have to get beyond race and work together."

When all else fails, blame Fox and the Tea Party. It's their fault, clearly... they "misconstrued" the term "own kind" and the fact she admitted she didn't do everything she could.

Saying she would not help the farmer because he is whie is pretty clear, not sure how Fox and the Tea Party could misconstrued that statement.

A couple of comments:

1. Glad the NAACP CEO acknowledges racial intolerance this but that indicates it wasn't misconstrued (or he just wants political cover).

2. Assuming it was misconstrued (it was 24 years ago afterall and apparently she tells the story as part of a larger story about getting past race) I think she's catching too much flak for this.

Racial incidents are way more radioactive than they should be. She really doesn't get a chance to explain and poof she's gone. Happens way too frequently IMHO.

Ironically, the NAACP jumping on her makes the matter worse and makes any racial comment highly dangerous. So much for a serious dialogue on race.

I watched the Sherrod thing and would say the following:

First, she had to go. Her comment that she did not give the farmer equal asistance because he was white cannot be ignored or tolerated.

Second, if you watch it further, she is explaining that she started from that premise and in referring him for further assistance realized that the issue as amongst farmers and her job was not one of race, but rather was one of the haves and the have nots. I think she is saying that she learned a lesson that government assistance is much more about class than anything else.

Regardless of her realization at the end of that process, however, she adopted a policy decision or action based on race and she's out.



BP makes the remark about a serious dialogue about race. I think that would be a good thing, but I think as well that in discussing it you have to include economic class. It is undeniable that the minority communities are not as well off as their white counterparts. That gap is closing, but as the upper classes lose some of their steam and the lower classes gain some momentum, it is bound to cause some earthquakes along the way.

One could argue that a lot of the racial resentment that we see from elements of the TP right now is more about loss of economic superiority and a sense that the country and the entitlement they have felt for so long to run it is what is causing all this angst out there. The uncertainty caused by the changing face of the country, both down the street and when you go to the bank to get a loan, is unsettling.

Its about fear of that unknown and worry that it means you will have less as others get more, that is driving so much of this. And unfortunately, in my view, there is a whole stable of people out there willing to take advantage of that fear.

The race card has been played so much and for so long that when you hear; 'that's racist' these days, one tends to say; 'so what?'

The same people who are always pointing out perceived racism are the most racist, bigoted people on the planet.

For instance anything now goes in post-apartheid South Africa, including rape, murder and unlawful seizure of property but that is all right because we have lionized a marxist terrorist and well, the government isn't 'apartheid' anymore even though few have any real knowledge of how well the apartheid government was advancing toward majority rule without the help of marxist, terrorist revolutionaries.

Same goes for Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) who had already elected a black prime minister but no, the British and Americans (Carter regime) wouldn't stand for that, they wanted their man Mugabe in there and they got what they wanted and we can see the sorry sorry outcome. Still marxists all over the world, including here in America, praise the murderous Mugabe.

Blatent racism in Cuba against blacks is swept under the rug by the NAACP and their ilk because of the common cause of marxism.

Actually it was marxist that founded and funded the NAACP from the beginning.

wait what's this loss of economic superiority? I thought the dems (and LG) were consistantly telling us how the white rich people are far richer than they ever have been before and the poor minorities are far poorer?

This statement is the best possible example of how off base you are with the sentiments of the tea party and their core message. It isn't about their economic status, most of the TP people you see are average upper to lower middle class and under.

They aren't bothered by seeing minorities getting ahead, they are bothered by soaring deficits and saddling the next two generations with our debt. They simply pointing out it isn't sustainable, that it's only a quick fix and we can only pass the buck so far down the road.

Instead of admitting the obvious, that TP's have some great points that fly in the face of the agendas of our past two presidents, you prefer to assign dark motives to common sense logic. It's the only way you and many other somewhat level headed liberals and democrats can justify your opposition.

but "certainly I didn't act upon it. You know, I'm from the South. I've lived in the South all my life, and I know how black people were treated by white people during those years. My own father was murdered by one. I didn't let that get in the way of trying to help."

Yeah sounds like she's completely without prejudice. Can you imagine if a white person said this?

I understand what you both are saying -- that objectively speaking the "necks" or far out folks in the TP who might be epxeressing these messages are not in fact the educated, pwerful, or wealthy ones.

Where you make your mistake is in thinking that it matters where they truly are on the ladder of power and finance. It doesn't.

What matters is where they think they are, where they feel they deserve to be.

People who feel a sense that they are entitled to long term financial and political power are afraid of what happens if people who have for a long time expressed resentment about that are about to wrestle that way from them.

With the election of a black POTUS and the hue and cry of some on the far left about black power, that fear level is ratcheted up substantially. The rhetoric from outliers like the Black Panther guys is exactly the kind of thing that has them reaching for their guns and talking Second Amendment.

The struggle on this is real, but for the last 5 decades it has by and large been peaceful and moderately slow to occur.

The reason I despise people like Beck and Hannity and Limbaugh is that they are making a handsome living off of flaming those fears and making it seem like, if he could, Obama would nationalize the guard to come take half of the stuff owned by white people and give it to black people.

They prey on the fear of those they are pretending to defend, they fire up that fear, exploit it so people feel like they need to go out and buy their books or listen to their shows, or what have you, as long as it keeps the dollars rolling in.

Do some of the black leaders do the same thing? Absolutely. The likes of Sharpton and Jackson -- they have always been about tapping into the fear and resentment of the black community so as to advance their own personal agendas.

The reality is that in our everyday lives we do not view our black coworkers or neighbors as a threat to our economic well-being. To the contrary, a lot of the time they are in the same boat, rowing to the same goal for a company or a school or a church.

But then you have these purveyors of hate and fear and resentment whisper in our ears that some unidentified or far away caricature of a race is coming to get us. That is who Beck and Hannity are.
