Did you hear the story about the black woman with the United States Dept. of Agriculture in Georgia? Shirley Sherrod? She resigned after a video surfaced
of her telling a group with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People how she didn't want to help the white farmer with a problem because of the way whites have stolen land from the blacks for years. (She also told the NAACP member that blacks should try to get federal jobs because of job security and they don't have to do much work.)
Well of course, she's defending her statements and of course there is more to it than that. But now she is saying members of the Obama administration "harassed" her and demanded she resign her post immediately. She said White House officials told her they were afraid Glenn Beck would have this story on his show tonight.
