And the moral of the story is...

A little girl grows up seeing injustices done to her people day after day.

As a woman, she’s put into a position of having to help one she perceived as of the “enemy.”

As time goes on, a relationships blooms, and her heart is changed from reluctant assistance, to sincere care.

She matures from prejudice to reconciliation.

Beautiful.

How such a heartwarming story was twisted from being a story of a woman’s journey to reconciliation, to instead being “exhibit A” of the NAACP being racist, is beyond me.

Equally beyond me is how the government allowed themselves to be duped into believing a cut-and-paste version of Sherrod’s speech from a Tea Party enthusiast.

It’s also amazing that some are viewing this whole bru-ha-ha as a scheme by liberals to cast a doubtful light on Fox News and the Tea Party.

Astounding that some are complaining that such good treatment would never be given if a white person was in Sherrod’s shoes, and how it’s horrible that a closet racist is being catered to so lavishly.

Yep.

Welcome to post-racial America everyone.
