The video that's been brought to the fore-front of her as of late was taken 20 years ago. And if I'm not mistaken, this was in front of an audience that consisted of many groups, the NAACP included.

Why would they just now, in the name of non-racist policy bring it up?

I'll tell you why, it's because of the Tea Party nonsense they're throwing around right now. They're trying to make themselves look like they aren't racist. The film proves differently.

All they've done is throw her under the bus, like all the leftys of late have been doing, to make themselves look good.

There's no spin neccessary on what's going on if you look a little deeper than what's on the cover.

elsluffigeous... you're the whack-job.

: Put your negative spin on this NAACP statement regarding the U.S. Department of Agriculture official Shirley Sherrod's behavior...
: ========
: In the statement, NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous said the organization was "appalled by her actions, just as we are with abuses of power against farmers of color and female farmers."

: "Her actions were shameful. While she went on to explain in the story that she ultimately realized her mistake, as well as the common predicament of working people of all races, she gave no indication she had attempted to right the wrong she had done to this man," he said.

: "The reaction from many in the audience is disturbing. We will be looking into the behavior of NAACP representatives at this local event and take any appropriate action," Jealous said.

: He thanked the people who had brought Sherrod's remarks to the attention of the NAACP's national office.

: "Sherrod's behavior is even more intolerable in light of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's well documented history of denying opportunities to African American, Latino, Asian American, and Native American farmers, as well as female farmers of all races," Jealous said. "Currently, justice for many of these farmers is being held up by Congress."
