Racism (white or black) is always ugly

And you can see the ugliness of racism in this story and clip. The twist here is that the overtly racist language comes from a black agriculture official who admits she used racist standards against a white farmer in the performance of her federal government duties ... and she made her racist statements before a NAACP meeting in which the audience shockingly embraced her race talk. What?

Ugly stuff. You can see the video and story here. Why isn't racism in all forms condemned equally -- especially by this supposedly "post-racial" president? And when he finishes exploring the ugliness of this NAACP meeting (do you have that kind of special integrity, Mr. President?), he can move on to his own Justice Department, which appears to be playing favorites based on skin color in this New Black Panther story.
