ABC News’ Gregory Simmons reports: At the Urban League’s Centennial Celebration today in Washington, Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., delivered a scathing response to the White House and U.S. Department of Agriculture’s handling of the Shirley Sherrod fallout.

Sherrod, a former director of rural development for the state of Georgia, resigned from the Agriculture Department last week -- forced out by the Obama administration after video of her delivering remarks at an NAACP banquet, recounting an incident that occurred in 1986, was posted by a conservative media outlet.

“Here you had a woman who basically had a great history of evidently had done her job and had done it well, she said.  “And all of a sudden because of a lack of courage by people in leadership they responded to a video that was done by the enemy.”

“The enemy,” according to Waters, is the conservative media. “The same people enemy that just killed off ACORN and other things,” she said. “The right-wing press is using that platform to literally do their organizing, to intimidate you and basically run this country.”

Wouldn't this thread be better placed in "Mind Numbing Stupidity"?

Waters can't even articulate a single sentence without foaming at the mouth. This critter belongs in a cage, under observation. A strait jacket would be useful.

Well, considering she was on television at the beginning of the Rodney King riots screaming, "No justice!  No peace!" I'm still amazed that crooked brain-damaged hag isn't in jail.

Then again, anywhere but LA, she WOULD have been.
