Shirley Sherrod's husband appears to be something of a race baiter. Or was this taken out of context too.

Finally, we must stop the white man and his Uncle Tom from stealing our elections. We must not be afraid to vote black and we must not be afraid to turn a black out who votes against our interests.

If Sarah Palin's husband said: "We must stop the black man and his white liberal friends in ACORN from stealing our elections. We must not be afraid to vote white and we must not be afraid to turn out a white who votes against our interests..." I wonder how much news coverage that would get.
