---------------------------------snip The White House needs to get off this stance and start showing some sympathy toward Ms. Sherrod. She has, clearly, been done terribly wrong by the White Supremacist fringe of the Republican Party. The White House acts like they are afraid of a bunch of bigots. Martin Luther King, Jr. would be sickened by how this White House has behaved toward this woman. Some racist bigot makes an accusation against her and they don't even waste one minute before firing her without review. Yet when the truth comes out, they don't re-hire her on the spot. Then, and only then, are they willing to conduct a review. Disgusting. If they have the decency to offer her the job back, I hope she turns it down. I wouldn't want to work for people who were so easily pushed around by a by an internet skinhead like Breitbart or a certified nutcase like Beck. The White House should at least apologize to Ms. Sherrod and accept responsibility for how this kind and lovely public servant has been treated. That would be the minimum of something to show Breitbart and the rest of his skinhead crew that decent Americans will not be intimidated by the likes of scum like them. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
