Well, I think we all know why; but still the unmitigated gall is amazing!

"If offensive slurs are a problem for the left, why does Al Sharpton have a primetime slot on MSNBC?...True, Sharpton said these things long before he was on MSNBC. But his history was well known, and the lack of outrage from the left when he was elevated to primetime highlights the hypocrisy of their anti-Rush censorship crusade. MSNBC President Phil Griffin knew that Sharpton said this sort of stuff regularly--that, in fact, such bigotry and radical rhetoric was an integral part of the Sharpton persona. He hired him nonetheless. One has to wonder if Brian Williams, Matt Lauer, and Tom Brokaw are proud."

I never really liked MSNBC, but i'd tune in pretty regularly to see what the enemy was plotting. However, all bets were off when MSNBC hired Sharpton for political commentary. It was at that point that I relegated MSNBC to the Pile of Obscurity™......theres no way any rational person could consider Al Sharpton worthy of their attention in light of his racist background.

Seriously, his nasty verbiage outdoes most posters here on C-D, and we've got some doozies!

Please DON'T compare Sharpton to Buckwheat. The 'Lil Rascals'; looking at it, showed the future, in a good way.

Many Black people think Sharpton is now a fool. His cause today is amnesty for illegal aliens.
