Why Does Sharpton Get A Pass???
He's black, he's liberal, he's a shakedown artist and agitator.

I would say that and the whole bag of chips. Agitator is an understatement.

If you believe being black and a liberal makes people get given a pass, I have an air guitar I'd like to sell to you. I'll even throw in an inflatable dartboard and a running refrigerator (but you gotta CATCH IT FIRST!)

Whew. On a more serious note now. The only people getting a pass are the right wingers that spew REAL racism, homophobia, misogyny, classism, and generally sociopathic loads of toxic brahmin waste every day and don't get called out on it. But hey--if they actually got called out on it to the point they need to, there'd not be any chance for right-wingers to take progressives out of context!

Al Sharpton is a great guy who gets constantly attacked because he is a strong progressive figure who fights actual racism... and that makes a lot of people, especially racists and latent racists, drop big, steaming loads in their underwear.

OMG... you're still stuck on this crap? Even the media has moved on, so you really need to get over it already.

P.S. I don't think anyone gives Al Sharpton a pass, in fact he's widely known as a hate-monger. Why would you think otherwise? And isn't Rush still on the air? So it seems he got a "pass" too.

Just open your eyes and ears, look around you. As we have seen in the current manufactured BC "story", liberals get a pass on their vile speech, so being black and liberal is a certainty.

Whew. On a more serious note now. The only people getting a pass are the right wingers that spew REAL racism, homophobia, misogyny, classism, and generally sociopathic loads of toxic brahmin waste every day and don't get called out on it. But hey--if they actually got called out on it to the point they need to, there'd not be any chance for right-wingers to take progressives out of context!

I think we've seen just which segment of society embodies all of the above......liberals. Right now, your president is engaged is disgusting class warfare. Your liberal men are engaged is disgusting displays of misogyny.

Al Sharpton is a great guy who gets constantly attacked because he is a strong progressive figure who fights actual racism... and that makes a lot of people, especially racists and latent racists, drop big, steaming loads in their underwear.
Yeah, he's a great guy.

***Content*** warning.

He's a race-baiting racist is what he is.
