Sherrod vows to sue Breitbart

Shirley Sherrod, the Agriculture Department employee whose hasty dismissal by the Obama administration sparked a national uproar over race, said Thursday that she will sue the conservative blog mogul who posted the misleading video excerpt that led to her removal.

Mrs. Sherrod made the announcement about legal action against Andrew Breitbart on Thursday in San Diego at the National Association of Black Journalists convention, although analysts in media law told The Washington Times that she will have a very hard time winning a case.

"I will definitely do it," Mrs. Sherrod said, when asked at the convention whether she was considering taking legal action against Mr. Breitbart.

Mr. Breitbart "had to know that he was targeting me," Mrs. Sherrod said. "At this point, he hasn't apologized. I don't want it at this point, and he'll definitely hear from me."

In the excerpt, Mrs. Sherrod appears to be proudly telling a Georgia NAACP chapter that she did not help a white farmer. In the full video, she spoke of racial reconciliation and lessons she learned about herself from the experience with the white farmer, who backed Mrs. Sherrod in the ensuing public furor.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack has apologized to Mrs. Sherrod for demanding her dismissal without seeing the whole tape and has offered her another job. Mrs. Sherrod has yet to say whether she will accept one.

She also has publicly denounced Mr. Breitbart as a "vicious" racist who wants to enslave all black Americans.

"I think he would like to get us stuck back in the times of slavery. That's where I think he'd like to see all black people end up again," she told CNN last week.

Mr. Breitbart did not respond to e-mail or a voice message from The Washington Times. Mr. Breitbart has said he did not edit the video and that it was President Obama's Agriculture Department that fired Mrs. Sherrod, not him.

Mr. Obama waded into the Sherrod flap again Thursday, saying in a speech to the National Urban League that she "deserves better than what happened to her last week." In an appearance with ABC's "The View" that aired Thursday, Mr. Obama blamed the media for playing up what he dubbed a "phony controversy." However, he didn't blame the media alone, saying "a lot of people overreacted, including people in my administration."

hhhmmmm wonder why shes not suing obama and his administration ' anyone anyone .

and check this out . naaaaaaaaaa shes not a racist .

She also has publicly denounced Mr. Breitbart as a "vicious" racist who wants to enslave all black Americans.

oh god another poor me black whos gonna take full advantage of this to cash in any way she can . shes a scummy asses as the rest of them .

This was a set up from the get-go between Obama-NAACP-Sherrod.

Not one single doubt in my mind about it.

If only a video would surface about the conversation going on between these three, then Breitbart could sue them (hahahahahahaha).

If the whites don't start defending themselves and standing up for their rights, there will be consequenses no one will like in the end, this has been so in history and history ALWAYS repeats itself.

Mr. Obama blamed the media for playing up what he dubbed a "phony controversy." However, he didn't blame the media alone, saying "a lot of people overreacted, including people in my administration."

classic , once again obama directs the attention away from himself and blames the media and even his own administration 'but not himself ofcourse . he is a joke beyong words .

Mrs Sherrod deserves better than what happened to her? That is what the president said? He is absoulately right. She deserves better than the media, the NAACP and the Obama administration hanging her without a trial. And the administration should be sued for firing her without knowing all the facts.

richard ' the administration dosen't take a shit unless obama approves it . he is the one who gave the admin the orders to fire her , he is fully resposible , and i believe whole headedly with chylloh's post that this was a set up from the get go . the whole damm thing stinks like dead fish .

A person with common sense and really doesn't need an elementary education to see what happen here. Remember, the Duke LaCross players who were lied about and had to spend time in jail because a black lady lied. I saw this at the first because what nut drives down a road and calls 911 to say white boys are in the yard of this house calling her racist names and she is scared, then she not only goes to this same house which she is frightened about but returns two more times.

THIS IS ANOTHER DUKE LACROSS PLAYER SET UP. I guarantee you.

First, why would you pull to the side of the road and business is conducted over a cell phone ON THE SIDE OF A ROAD that you are fired, hmmmmm?

Second, Obama Admin. personnel told her she better side with them or SHE WOULD BE ON GLENN BECK TONIGHT, he hadn't heard about it or did he comment about it that day but 48 hrs. later which he sided with her.

Third, why did the NAACP give the tape to begin with and how in the world did the Obama Admin. know so much about it so fast?

Fourth, during the speech about how so sorry she is about racism against a white farmer, she was smiling every time the audience amen her for doing that to a white farmer and she kept referring to the white farmer and "his kind".

Something will surface sooner or later.

They screwed themselves.They know it and so do many others.

What many republicans fail to realize is "what goes around comes around" when they do get back into power all democrats need to show the republicans the same courtesy that was afforded the democrats, country be damn.

I'm still perplexed at the mindset of the joe public conservatives running around bitching and moaning about every move this president makes, however when George Bush was president (the true owner of this crushing recession and the two wars America is fighting) the same people were telling democrats to respect the office, while the country was descending into chaos.

Now the shoe is on the other foot those same conservatives are the first to put down the office of the president.

When you grow a spine and think you can shut me up, try it.

I fought a man breaking into my house when I lived on Muhammad Ali Blvd. when there were still some whites who had not sold their house, to harm myself and my children, lets say, "he no more a man".

Black woman was fired by Obama and a video of her was given by her own group she was speaking at that day in March 2010...the NAACP.

What part of reading and listening comprehension do you not understand?You need to learn how to listen and to be able to decipher what you are listening to before engaging mouth.

Oh, btw, is this another alias?

You are so funny, one day maybe, you will grow up.

Maybe, born that away.

Maybe, taught from birth to be dependent on what they are telling him and not have a brain to think for himself.

Maybe, filled with hatred, bitterness and racism to the point he is eaten up with it....beyond rehab.

Maybe, he is nothing more than a bull@#$%%^#.

Maybe, he is identical to Obama, only lies precede from his mouth.

Actually what it seem is history repeating itsself. In the first part of the centuray the repubs were in charge promising everything and wanting to be the dominant power for the next 30 yrs. Along the way they became like a lot of others. a fat bloated machine that forgot that absoulate power corrupts absoulately. It is going on now. Dems are in control, and they are makign the very same mistakes that Repubs made,. None of these azzholes ever learn anything.

and just wanting to point out one little tidbit that gets lost in the debate. 29 democratic senators voted for the war in 2002. It was a true bipartisan vote. I will never believe that these people who have access to everything imaganiable were hoodwinked by Bush. Sometimes they have to just stand up and say yep i did it.

Sometimes they have to just stand up and say yep i did it .

richard 'there is no way on heaven or earth will obama EVVVVVVVVVER do that . no one and i mean NO ONE is better at the blame game than obama ' he wouldn't hesitate throwing his whole family under the bus just to put the blame on them ' you know the same way he threw his own administration under the bus with the sherrod debacle , the man is a first class jackass .
