Pigford Heats Up!

Well, the stove has gone from merely being turned on to a full out simmer now. We have a law suit filed by Shirley Sherrod against Andrew Breitbart, which I bet will last up until the discovery process and Sherrod’s deposition. The first two videos are Michelle Bachman (R) Minnesota, and Steve King (R) Iowa. They discuss various aspects of the case. The third video is Eddie Slaughter, a farmer from Georgia who got royally screwed in the whole deal. What’s new in this so far from him? Listen to his explanation. He received compensation for his wrong in Pigford I. Then he was served with a lien through the Social Security Administration to repay his settlement. He received funds through Pigford II, but then he was hit with another lien and watched as money was dispersed to about 94,000 people who never farmed at all. A huge percentage of those non farmers were from Chicago’s inner city, where there are no farms. Who is from Chicago again? It’s probably not important. Any way, these three videos come from Breitbart’s BigGovernment.com.

Steven King implicates Vilsac and Holder in this round. They stop short of calling the President an outright crook, but we heard implication of the President in an earlier video already. It is beginning to look very suspiciously like the Sherrod firing was to distance a lot of crooked people from the Pigford stench, and that Sherrod was a patsy set for the fall and buck stoppage. Strange that her lawsuit is leveled against Breitbart alone and does not include the people who actually fired her. The lawsuit is designed to shut Breitbart up, and is the tool of thugs from Chicago who are used to playing this kind of game. It will never see a court, nor so much as a plaintiff’s deposition. For your viewing pleasure, and historical perspective, Keith Olberman’s take on the Sherrod firing as documented by Glenn Beck.
