The Shirley Sherrod incident gets curiouser and curiouser

In this clip, the conservative congressman tells talk show host Ben Shapiro that Sherrod was hired by the USDA under highly unusual circumstances.

Just when you thought the Shirley Sherrod incident was fading away, up pops Republican Rep. Steve King with a whole new perspective.

In this clip, the conservative congressman tells talk show host Ben Shapiro that Sherrod was hired by the USDA under highly unusual circumstances.

King tells the story of the Pickford Farms case, in which black farmers were discriminated against. Claims were paid out to more than 20,000 black farmers despite the fact that there were only 18,000 black farmers in America.

Turns out that one of the largest payouts went to – are you ready? – Shirley Sherrod. And the timing between her payout and her initial hiring at the USDA raises some questions in King’s mind.

Hmmmmm.

Under Steve King's amnesty plan, we'd get an illegal alien, but Mexico would get Nancy Pelosi.

Iowa Congressman Steve King has come up with a brilliant amnesty plan that even conservatives can happily endorse.

The Denver Post has details:

Northern Colorado residents gathered in support of Arizona’s new immigration law at a 9-12 Movement rally Saturday afternoon.

Iowa Congressman Steve King and former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado headlined the “United We Stand Behind Arizona” event, which drew more than 100 people despite only two days’ notice.

…King said that under only one circumstance does he support amnesty for illegal immigrants: “Every time we give amnesty for an illegal alien, we deport a liberal.”

Seems like a fair trade. We’d even go 2-for-1 on Nancy Pelosi.
