Excellent. Now there's been an apology and a call from Obama. The next move should be to give Sherrod her old job back. The WH messed this up badly, a "different position" just isn't good enough.
Quote:
President Barack Obama spoke Thursday with Shirley Sherrod, the former Agriculture Department employee who was forced to resign from her job based on incomplete and misleading reports about a speech she gave in March.
-------
Sherrod was "very, very pleased with the conversation," O'Neill said, and told her Obama had said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack was "very apologetic and very sincere." Vilsack apologized to Sherrod on Wednesday and offered her a different position within the department.
