Brad Sherman Exposed As An Ignorant Fool



"It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."

Rep. Brad Sherman spoke and exposed himself a fool last Sunday in a townhall meeting in Reseda.

Fox News is reporting:

A California congressman who drew shouts of disbelief at a town hall meeting when he said he was unaware of the voter intimidation case involving the New Black Panther Party explained that the reason he hadn't heard about the story was because his news sources didn't cover it.

Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., in a written statement released late Tuesday, accused Fox News of launching "attacks on me" for showing video of the meeting. He said he would soon send a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder regarding the incident and "the importance of allegations of voter intimidation," but said the "major sources of information which I rely upon most" did not mention the issue.

But he also offered an excuse for missing the news, saying none of the media he reads covered it.

Sherman listed the Los Angeles Times, the Los Angeles Daily News, the Economist, Newsweek, Congressional Quarterly and National Journal and said he only found one mention of the Black Panther case.


It is Sherman's job to know what the issues are and the New Black Panther case is nearly two years old. It was widely covered in the media in the days following Obama's election. To blame his ignorance on media coverage is dishonest and makes him look like an idiot.
