News Roundup for 7/29/10

Breitbart
Soon to be a penniless hobo?


-Headline of the day-
"Sherrod Announces She ll Sue Breitbart."

Go Shirley!

After professional jackass Andy Breitbart put up a heavily edited clip of a speech she made one time, things went very badly for Shirley Sherrod very quickly. Luckily, she's come up with a remedy. Speaking to the National Association of Black Journalists convention in San Diego, she told the crowd she would "definitely" sue Andy stupid.

Or "stupider," rather -- I regret the error.

"He had to know that he was targeting me," she said. With a headline like "Video Proof: The NAACP Awards Racism 2010," I'd say that was a pretty sure bet.

"How can I get involved," you ask? Well, you can go over to Andy's Big Government story about the suit and type "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" all over the comment thread. It won't actually accomplish anything constructive, but it's a fun way to kill a little time. (New York Times)

APATHY!

So ignore the leaked documents and say to yourself over and over, "I don't care, I don't care, I don't care..." You'll see, it works! (MarkFiore.com)


-Bonus HotD-
"GOP Filibusters Small Business Bill After Criticizing Dems For Delay."

In the military, they call this "hurry up and wait"... Or bullshit... Really depends on who you're talking to. (Huffington Post)
