RACHEL MADDOW CALLS OUT POLITICAL AND MEDIA RIGHT WING FEAR MONGERS

I was going to comment on the right wing smear campaign against Shirley Sherrod; however, Rachel Maddow was brilliant in summing up what this whole smear campaign is about.

It is clear to me (once I listened to Shirley Sherrod’s statements) … that someone from the Breitbart camp or FOX news called the White House, and/or the Department of Agriculture, and/or the NAACP and told them that a damaging clip from the Breitbart blog (involving Shirley Sherrod) was going to be aired on a FOX news talk show. At that point, a decent, good woman was thrown under the bus.

Breitbart, FOX news, the White House, Vilsack, the NAACP, Bill O, FOX and Friends, ... owes Shirley Sherrod an apology (as some have done) and more.
