LITTLE ANDY BREITBART SUED BY SHIRLEY SHERROD

Little Andy Breitbart, who was a part of some right-wing gay soiree at CPAC this weekend (we dunno…) has been spending the better part of the past year trying to recover from the ass-whupping he received from a whole bunch of people who are still amazed that regardless of his rep of producing doctored videos to “prove” that liberals are just as bad, if not worse than the conservatives he loves so much, he still gets some press for it. Maybe not as much as before, but enough for folks to wonder when if ever he was going to get his. Shirley Sherrod just might have given us an answer. While he was hanging out at his gay soiree at CPAC, he was given a reason to repeat the temper tantrum he threw there last year – a lawsuit courtesy of the woman he smeared as a racist back in July, costing her to lose her job as an official as the US Dept. of Agriculture. Since she first announced that she planned to sue him months ago, Breitbart and his cohorts over at his various websites continued the smear campaign, declaring that she is indeed a racist and they outed her as such. If there is one civil trial you sit in on this year, let this be the one. And start sending letters to the judge BEGGING for cameras to be in the courtroom. PLEASE!

Shirley Sherrod has filed a lawsuit against Andrew Breitbart over a video released by the conservative personality that lead to her ouster as an official at the USDA.

Breitbart was served on Saturday at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), according to the New York Times: “In the suit, which was filed in Washington on Friday, Ms. Sherrod says the video has damaged her reputation and prevented her from continuing her work.”

The video first gained widespread public attention when it was posted on Breitbart’s BigGovernment.com. The two-minute, 38-second clip was widely received as an admission by Sherrod, who is African American, that she had discriminated against a white farmer. Under immediate pressure from the Obama administration, Sherrod resigned from her position as the USDA’s director of rural development in Georgia.

When a full 43-minute copy of the video surfaced, additional context turned the story into one of reconciliation. Sherrod had actually saved the man’s farm and started a lifelong friendship. The NAACP, which publicly condemned Sherrod’s speech shortly after it was posted on BigGovernment.com, soon issued a retraction and said that they were “snookered.”

The White House also begged for forgiveness and offered her a “unique opportunity.” Sherrod declined the offer to return to the Agriculture Department.

A statement issued on his website says Breitbart “categorically rejects the transparent effort to chill his constitutionally protected free speech and, to reiterate, looks forward to exercising his full and broad discovery rights.” The statement also says that Larry O’Connor, the head of Breitbart.tv, was named in the suit.
