Opinion: The truth About Shirley Sherrod, Big Government And The National Association For The Advancement Of Colored People

Shirley Sherrod was a video showing a clip of racism within the federal government? Not hard if you know the whole story. Big Government and the NAACP-got it wrong.
Given the recent controversy around the Tea Party and the NAACP charges of racism in its elements, it's not surprising that supporters of both factions are looking long and hard to find evidence that a bank who is calling the kettle black. And Andrew Breitbart thought that he found it in Shirley Sherrod. But, as expected in political life, this whole story was not told.


Big Breitbart to the government website YouTube video shows Sherrod, now former director of USDA Rural Development in Georgia, speaking at the NAACP Freedom Fund Dinner March, telling the story of how she did not fully help the white farmer when he turned help preserve their farm. Sherrod further states that she believes the farmer talked as if he were above it, and that Sherrod had decided not to give him "full force" in her care, thinking that the new bankruptcy laws and took him to a white lawyer would end up save it in any way.

He eventually get help "their own kind."
Storm follows. Cries of double standards are sent via the Internet, and blogospheres Twitterverse. As can be called a racist NAACP to another organization, when they are against racism within their own, especially when it comes to the federal official appointed?
