From Victim to Victimizer
An embarrassed White House apologized on Wednesday to a black Agriculture Department employee who was ousted for her remarks about race, acknowledging that officials did not know all the facts when she was fired.
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said that he would reconsider the department’s decision to ask Shirley Sherrod to resign. Sherrod, the director of rural development in Georgia, was asked by department officials to leave her job on Monday after conservative bloggers posted an edited video of her saying that she initially didn’t give a white farmer as much help as she could have 24 years ago, when she was working for a nonprofit farm aid group.
Sherrod says the video distorted her full speech, which described how she came to realize the white farmer needed her help and which she says was intended to promote racial reconciliation.
Although speculation remains if the White House played a role in Vilsack demanding her resignation, although Sherrod had indicated prior that it was her understanding that it did come from the White House.
Upon a closer inspection of the matter, it appears her firing was the result of yet another ‘jump to conclusions’ act on the part of either the White House or at the very least by Tom Vilsack. Hopefully Sherrod will be re-instated however never expect to know whether Obama was the one who jumped the gun.
I wonder if Mrs. Sherrod is feeling a little bit of what the Tea Party people felt after being wrongfully accused of being racists. As far Obama or anyone in his administration, nothing they do surprises me anymore. Hopefully more people will start to question why his administration is so bent on pushing racism when it is not called for and merely used as a cover for his unpopular policies which many people find so appalling. At the present time it is hard to make the call on who the most racist bunch of people in the country really are, those in the White House or those in the NAACP!
UPDATE: Sherrod: I’m a Victim of Breitbart, Fox ‘Racism’
Sherrod told MediaMatters: “When you look at their reporting, this is just another way of seeing that they are (racist),” Sherrod told me about Fox in a lengthy interview Tuesday night. “But I have seen that before now. I saw their reporting as biased during the Bush Administration and the Clinton Administration.”
From Victim to Victimizer
Since Sherrod and the left have made amends, I felt I had to update this story. Really, all I can add is I no longer feel anything but pity for Sherrod, she truely was victimized by way of an edited video and furthermore by a hastily forced resignation. However after the manure hit the fan – what does Ms Sherrod do, she feels the need to fan the racist flames and accuses Foxnews as being biased and racist while seemingly giving a pass to the White House, Vilsack, and the NAACP as well. Sherrod slid right back into the arms of the ghastly liberal left who were the ones who instantly threw her to the wolves. The White House and NAACP were quick to distance themselves from her but after a brief phone call from Obama it seems to have soothed things over except for one thing, Sherrod felt the need to stupidly throw down the race card on Foxnews when it was totally without merit or any facts to back it up. She went instantly from victim to victimizer!
“The administration’s thoughtless abandonment of Sherrod indicates a hair-trigger climate of paranoia about all issues racial within the West Wing. It seems J. Christian Adams’ whistle-blowing has taken its toll, and Team Obama is nervous about the degree of scrutiny its racially-tinged political machinations have received. On the heels of the New Black Panther kerfuffle, another major race flap just wouldn’t do–thus, a low-level African American female was deemed expendable, and was unceremoniously dumped. The White House now claims they didn’t press for Sherrod’s dismissal, yet is apologizing to her. Hmm.” – Biggovernment.com
Lucifer himself could cozy up to the far left with but one jab at Foxnews – the Antichrist of Socialism/Marxism/Communism! So welcome back into the warm and cozy folds of the disgusting left – hell girl, it’s like you never even left!
