"I took him to a white lawyer...I took him to one of his own kind".....
If a white person said that about a black guy...he would be charged with a race crime. |

The article now has two additional sentences not quoted in the op. The point of the story wasn't entirely clear; only an excerpt of the speech is included in the video clip.
"It was revealed to me that it's about poor versus those who have," she said, suggesting she had learned that race is less important. youtube video The context of the speech may save the naacp from racial criticism though. |

Quoted:
link - FoxNews.com - July 19, 2010 Video Shows USDA Official Saying She Didn't Give 'Full Force' of Help to White Farmer A video has surfaced showing an Agriculture Department official regaling an NAACP audience with a story about how she withheld help to a white farmer facing bankruptcy –– video that now has forced the official to resign fox news Days after the NAACP clashed with Tea Party members over allegations of racism, a video has surfaced showing an Agriculture Department official regaling an NAACP audience with a story about how she withheld help to a white farmer facing bankruptcy –– video that now has forced the official to resign. Shirley Sherrod, the department's Georgia director of Rural Development, is shown in the clip describing "the first time I was faced with having to help a white farmer save his farm." Sherrod, who is black, claimed the farmer took a long time trying to show he was "superior" to her. The audience laughed as she described how she determined his fate. "He had to come to me for help. What he didn't know while he was taking all that time trying to show me he was superior to me was I was trying to decide just how much help I was going to give him," she said. "I was struggling with the fact that so many black people have lost their farmland and here I was faced with having to help a white person save their land –– so I didn't give him the full force of what I could do. I did enough." The Agriculture Department announced Monday, shortly after FoxNews.com published its initial report on the video, that Sherrod had resigned. "There is zero tolerance for discrimination at USDA, and I strongly condemn any act of discrimination against any person," Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in a written statement. "We have been working hard through the past 18 months to reverse the checkered civil rights history at the department and take the issue of fairness and equality very seriously. Sherrod explained in the video that, at the time, she assumed the state or national Department of Agriculture had referred the white farmer to her. In order to ensure that the farmer could report back that she was indeed helpful, she said she took him to see "one of his own" –– a white lawyer. "I figured that if I take him to one of them, that his own kind would take care of him," she said. The video clip was first posted by BigGovernment.com. The clip is dated March 27 from an NAACP Freedom Fund banquet. FoxNews.com is seeking a response from both the NAACP and the USDA. The clip adds to the firestorm of debate over the NAACP's decision to approve a resolution at its convention last week accusing some Tea Party activists of racism –– a charge Tea Party leaders deny. In a second clip from the same event posted online, Sherrod appeared to urge black job seekers to find work at the Department of Agriculture because the federal government won't lay people off. "There are jobs at USDA and many times there are no people of color to fill those jobs because we shy away from agriculture. We hear the word agriculture and think, why are we working in the fields?" she said. "You've heard of a lot of layoffs. Have you heard of anybody in the federal government losing their job? That's all I need to say." No surprise. |

This indecent and the DOJ's refusal of carrying through in the Philadelphia case it is apparent that this is acceptable behavior in the black community. The "White Devil" will finally receive payback for the oppression of the past. This is part of the 'Social Justice" they often refer to. The polices of this administration will set race relations back 50 years. If you think that it will end in 2012 when hopefully the Kenyan will be ousted, you are sadly mistaken. The hate will only get worse until it boils over into race riots that will make Tulsa look civil.
Racism in the white community has fallen drastically in the past 30 years. It is only coming to the surface in the black community now. |

It's the logical end of a society built on double standards. People with a fouled up world view...the world view that people of X color shouldn't bother those who are not of their "kind" with problems...make it into positions of authority and responsibility and then use the power of their office to inflict their diseased world view on others.
People are entitled to their opinion, but when it colors the discharge of their duties it becomes a problem. ...but in our society we've accepted that some people can be racists and it's no big deal as long as you have the right skin color and your oppression is aimed at the right people. White power types who show up at a polling place with weapons to intimidate voters would be national news and every race hustler in our country would be elbowing each other to try and be the first one in front of the camera to condemn America's racism and argue that they should be given more money and power. If Black Panthers who spend their off hours telling people to kill "crackers" as well as the children of "crackers" shows up at a polling place with weapons to intimidate voters, on the other hand, it's not a big deal. By allowing the double standard to exist we encourage the sort of behavior seen at the USDA. I heard someone say it's not a big deal because it clearly isn't a USDA-wide conspiracy...but that entirely misses the point. One does not need a massive conspiracy across an agency when there are enough individual actors allowed to work their reprobate world view into action because of their official positions. As government intrudes itself more and more into the daily lives of Americans, the existence of this double standard and the potential for injustice when coupled with official power should send a chill up the spine of anyone with a better than room temperature IQ. |

I think that the real meat of the story is near the end.
Look at it this way: there is a virtually endless number of examples of racism from the likes of the NAACP, the NBP, from black professors and civil leaders, and from this administration. Proving that many blacks-only organizations are racist is easy... it is already common knowlege among thinking Americans. What is much more telling about the current socialist mindset is the fact that this woman urges people to find work with the federal government because they will never be laid off.
