Shirley Sherrod Fired: Tea-Party Strikes again

Shirley Sherrod of the US Department of Agriculture was fired because some Tea-Party conservative Andrew Breitbart did a hatchet job on her. Faux News jumped in to provide shock and awe to the story to ensure that Sherrod was fired. Shirley Sherrod is a black woman and she was accused of discriminating against a white farmer many years ago. It turns out she did not and she was just making a case on how to avoid racism, when tempted, in a speech to N.A.A.C.P. Andrew Breitbart totally misrepresented her speech to carry out a smear campaign. The following video from Chris Matthews, Hardball, MSNBC explains this latest saga of news manipulation by the Tea Party to do some damage. Watch out folks, this virus of Tea Party is spreading as it is quite infectious.
