Miss Information And David Let Her, Man "Talk"

How many wrongs can one TV show, with two liberals, pack into a short segment?

The guy who cheats on his wife with his staff (pun intended) but is still endorsed by liberals, has a talk about right and wrong with a wrong-headed woman, who feeds him one lie after another, and gets applause for it by a clueless audience. What's not true here? Let me count the ways:

1) Implying that Andrew Breitbart specializes in unfairly editing material and sending it to FOX News is an out-and-out lie. Breitbart didn't edit the original Shirley Sherrod tape. Also, this was the first time (that I know of) that he'd ever done anything of this kind, so it can hardly be said that it's his shtick.

2) Shirley Sherrod - and her husband - have since been revealed to be racists, so it's not like Andrew Breitbart was exactly wrong because, while Breitbart was aiming for the NAACP, he still hit the target.

3) Andrew Breitbart didn't send the video to FOX News, but posted it on his own website, where it was picked up by others.

4) Andrew Breitbart was a part of The Drudge Report, a conservative news aggregator. But he was also a founding member of the so-liberal-and-cult-infested-it's-wacky website, The Huffington Post. It seems to me that makes Andrew Breitbart more of a straight shooter than Rachel Maddow - the "journalist" who isn't telling both sides here - which might explain why she only talks out of one side of her mouth.

5) Even after Let Her, Man admits he "may not have the facts", Maddow still tells him he's got the "tone" right, which he doesn't. As Maddow later says, you can't expect unscrupulous people to stop doing unscrupulous things.

6) After detailing the knee-jerk reaction of the White House and the USDA in firing Sherrod, Let Her, Man blames Andrew Breitbart for wasting everyone's time - not the White House and the USDA for unquestionably suspecting Breitbart might be right, that there's racists in the NAACP, and acting accordingly to save their own tails. Again, you can't expect unscrupulous people to stop doing unscrupulous things.

7) FOX News has repeatedly been acknowledged as the one news source that treated the Shirley Sherrod incident responsibly, waiting until Sherrod had already been fired - and they'd seen the whole tape - before going all-out on the story. This charge that FOX was a culprit has become a liberal meme (spread by such bone-headed liars as Howard Dean) even though it's been debunked already.

8) Let Her, Man says the White House was "several layers down" in blame when it was the White house and the USDA that did the only substantial (and provable) wrong to Shirley Sherrod.

9) Maddow accuses FOX News of using a pattern of racism to get ratings. A total fabrication she and Let Her, Man should be ashamed of and forced to apologize for.

So that's what I see, in a clip that's only 5:00 long, but (if you know what they're talking about) seems a whole lot longer.
