NAACP admits to being snookered

[PLYMCO_PILGRIM]

Do you mean to imply that the Right Wing media presented something out of context to support their agenda?

I'm shocked.....shocked I say!

do you have a link to a fox news story backing up your claim...i have one disproving it.

Beck: Why Was Shirley Sherrod Fired? - Video - FoxNews.com

Just some 411, this time FOX wasn't so bad.

 

[The Infidel]

So they claim they went off half-cocked?? That should bolster their credibility.

The white cop acted stupidly sound familiar?

I hate agreeing with you, but I cant help it...


I was thinking of the same thing when I heard all this earlier....

WASHINGTON (AP) -- NAACP leaders are calling on the Obama administration to reconsider its ousting of a black Agriculture Department worker who was pushed out of her job over racially tinged remarks, reversing their previous criticism of the employee.

NAACP President Benjamin Todd Jealous said in a statement that the group was "snookered" into believing that USDA employee Shirley Sherrod expressed racist sentiments at a local NAACP meeting in Georgia earlier this year. Jealous said conservative activist Andrew Breitbart, whose website posted video of Sherrod's remarks, deceived millions of people by releasing only partial clips. He said the full video makes clear that Sherrod was telling a story of racial unity.

President Obama should fire Vilsack who claims she was fired because someone might claim she is a racist. Fucktard.

I saw her on CNN earlier ravi. She said she got 3 phone calls from the white house on her way home asking her to resign.

The 3rd call told her to pull over and resign immediately.

Glenn Beck was on today giving the administration a TON OF CRAP over forcing her resignation...he said they didn't look at the context and shouldn't have asked for the resignation.

Wild ravi...you were right earlier today when we were talking about this and you said we need the whole context.

you want the links to the lady's interview on CNN where she said that and the Beck show segment where he said it? I'll grab em up if you want.

Yeah..........but if she'd still been employed by the admin, Beck would have been calling for her head.

I saw both of those on MSNBC by the way. Yep, she told Tony Harris what happened from her end.

By the way, you think Beck is gonna catch any shit over going against what FAUX Noise had already shown? He's going against the current and that never turns out well for those over at that "network".

Like I said, if she hadn't been forced to resign, Beck would have been calling for her head.

I received an email alert from politico.com about it.

A) FoxNews never ran a story on this until today, and all those that I have seen in the last hour have said she was asked to resign too hastily.
B) You have no idea what Beck would or would not have done, you're just pissed that sided with this woman b/c it disproves your "Beck is a racist" theory
C) Grow up

So we have a deliberate distortion by one conservative dumbass, and we have other conservatives calling him out on it and condemning him. Beck...and now LGF.

Conservatives calling out another conservative on their bullshit is somehow proof that all conservatives lie?

Srsly, grow the fuck up and out of that "my side do or die" mentality.

from the writer at your site, if this guy is a republican I may start to like republicans.



Andrew Breitbart: the heir to Joseph McCarthy, destroying people’s reputations and jobs based on deliberately distorted allegations, while the rest of the right wing blogs cheer. Disgusting. This is what has become of the right wing blogosphere — it’s now a debased tool that serves only to circulate partisan conspiracy theories and hit pieces.

I'd like to note that many of us from early on said the whole tape should be released, it's unfair to do less. Based on the audience reaction I found it wrong. Understood from the get go the 'problem' was from decades ago, though the piece was from March. Like anyone from the Tea Party, when the crowd is going racist, leaders should say, "No, that is wrong." She didn't, at least not in that clip.

BTW, LGF hasn't been 'conservative' in quite a long time, I suggest you scroll through it.

I didn't say republican. I said conservative.

As much as you don't want to hear it, there IS a difference.

Cons only vote for cons, the only cons they manage to elect are republicans
