    Poor woman became the victim of this "you're racist/no you're racist" game both sides want to play.

    This is what happens when you play grown-up kiddie political games. NAACP wanted to get cute with the Tea Party lololol. Sleep with dogs...

    Or I guess it could be because they commit a disproportionate amount of crime??

    Hence why I threw in the "other factors" comment. Do you think they commit a disproportionate amount of crime? (Note: the disproportion is quite large.) If so, why do you think that is? Due to poverty? Culture? Or just because they're black?

    The head of the NAACP has openly come out and said how they were wrong for firing that lady because of how intentionally deceiving that video was cut...even the "white" farmers that the lady was talking about have even come out and said how she actually saved their farm...case closed...FOX News just doing their job...nothing to see here...

    The problem is that FOX News didn't fire her. The administration is allegedly behind the firing. It seems that they jumped the gun on this one. And now, Vilsack is not willing to reinstate her.

    I'd hate to keep you from your quest to purposefully remain uninformed, but she actually got him a Black lawyer who worked on the case for months before he had to withdraw.

    Umm, yes I did. You can't possible conclude she is no longer a racist by that video. Once a racist always a racist.

    But she tried to get him a black lawyer first, who had to withdraw. Did you read the updated story? That was confirmed by the family of the farmer in the story.

    Are you saying they were stupid enough to act without all the facts?

After several months, the black lawyer had to withdraw from the case, citing too much workload, Spooner said. The couple then visited the white lawyer, with Sherrod's help, she said.

    Spooner said Sherrod did not display discrimination. Asked about the claim that her husband was acting "superior" during that first conversation, Spooner said: "That's just his way."

    He even admitted that he was...that they were...that they jumped the gun to try and quickly denounce anything racist...they don't tolerate that...I guess they were just taking the Fox "News" organization reporting a little too serious...

    Yea right.

    So they are trying to say that the one time they believe Fox News, they were wrong?

    Nice try. Something else is going on.

    Yes. Isn't it ridiculous when people rush to condemn without knowing all of the facts?

    LOL...

    you guys need to get a clue.

    Fox news did not initiate it, and was one of several news sources that played the video.

    Liberals light up racial issues with phony tea party racism, then expect for tolerance of that same perception within? Get real.
