ORIGINAL: DomKen Maybe Sanity will now attempt to call the Atlanta Journal Constitution a biased source as well http://www.ajc.com/news/couple-says-fired-usda-574027.html I do agree that she was treated unfairly, that the edited video was a rush to judgement on behalf of everyone.

Jealous asked the USDA to reconsider Sherrod's dismissal but, in a statement, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack stood by his decision. "First, for the past 18 months, we have been working to turn the page on the sordid civil rights record at USDA and this controversy could make it more difficult to move forward on correcting injustices," Vilsack said. "Second, state rural development directors make many decisions and are often called to use their discretion. The controversy surrounding her comments would create situations where her decisions, rightly or wrongly, would be called into question making it difficult for her to bring jobs to Georgia." http://www.ajc.com/news/couple-says-fired-usda-574027.html The USDA has a strong point.
