My header says it all. White (racist) bureaucrat + (defrauded)black farmer = huge law suit. Why is this different?

Video Shows USDA Official Saying She Didn't Give 'Full Force' of Help to White Farmer
.
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.

I say pay him, throw her ass in jail on Civil Rights charges!

I can easily see the outcome here. The case will be turned over to the DOJ for investigation. Upon completion, the farmer will be arrested and charged with being a racist and a bigot.
She was allowed to resign? Why wasn't she fired and charged with violating his civil rights, like a White would be if the situation were reversed? This is a rare glimps into how most blacks think when Whity ain't around.
Racial Intimidation:
In objective reality, justice is color-blind and prosecutors pursue the facts, wherever they lead, then punish the guilty.
Here in Amerika, the Attorney General, Eric Holder, refuses to prosecute racial intimidate that DID happen in 2008, when the New Black Panther Party chased white voters from a Pennsylvania polling place. Standing objective reality on its head, Holder is poised to prosecute Arizona officials for racial intimidation that HASN’T HAPPENED!
Here's MY question.
IF we are hearing these few instances, just how many are we NOT hearing about?
Are Obama and the libs turning conservatives / white people into (Hitlerian) "Jews"? And have they considered that we ("Jews") have most of the the guns? I don't want a race war, but I'll be damned if I will be a martyr to prove I'm not a racist.
Apparently it isn't different. The racist bitch got fired this morning.
It's just a small tip of the iceberg. Remember the old, tried and true leftist trick of first demonizing what you want to destroy or eliminate. It's a tactic that's used over and over again because, in a nation of sheeple, it's very effective. I saw one of those media-generated polls last night which showed that 56% of the American people "hate" Sarah Palin. Hate! I understand why the left/MSM hates her, seeing how she's a real person and not a so-called "enlightened intellectual". But the left doesn't make up 56% of the population or anywhere near it, meaning, their campaign to demonize her worked, just as it did with GWB.
When you control the MSM, as the left does, you can create any impression/illusion you want, and a whole lot of mindless people will buy into it. That it has nothing to do with reality or the truth matters not, so long as it causes the intended target to be on the defensive, which always makes people look guilty. Just look at what's all over the networks now, the "claims" that the Tea Party are racists. Proof? None. Evidence? None. Video? None. And the "claims" were started mostly by an organized group of racists, the NAACP. Effective? Very.

How could she get fired this morning if she resigned yesterday? Look for her to end up with a white house job.
Interesting development today.
The MSM is giving her a pas because the event, "occurred 24 years ago".
OK, then no reparations, no more bitching and blaming as slavery ended WAY more than 24 years ago.
No Black Ho can be racist.
Only White Debbils cain be Racists
It seems she may not be a racist after all. Even the old White farmer told Fox she went out of her way to help him. Fox is sticking up for her, while the lefty networks don't seem too sure on how to play it.
Apparently, the NAACP heard her speech and jumped the gun. They pressured the WH to have her fired thinking that if they stood up for a White guy it would make them look less racist, especially after their groundless racist attack on the Tea Party last week. It seems their plan may have backfired. Now that the story has come out, they're all trying to backpeddle, and the woman is now blaming Obummer.
This has become a real mess. They played the entire speech last night, and it is a completely different message once you add in the context in which she made her statements. It was a cautionary tale about a bad choice she had made int he past when she let racial motivations sway her actions
She wasn’t bragging about what she had done, she was telling the story as a cautionary tale about what not to do! Given that context, I have to apologize for my previous statement here, she is neither a racist nor a bitch, and congratulate her on her message, which was exactly what I’ve been saying all along – a truly colorblind nation wouldn’t allow race to dictate ANYTHING when it comes to who gets help, who is denied help, who gets a job, and so forth.
I’m actually kind of pissed at the people that foisted this on us as some sort of big scandal, and also at the officials in the NAACP and the White House for not getting the full story prior to their reaction. Breitbart claims that he got the video in the form in which he released it – context free – but I still can’t let him off the hook. He should have done his homework before flying off the handle while totally full of shit.
