Just two responses so far but the two are telling. I love the soft words about Reverend Al.
Not a liberal by any stretch but not as conservative as some here probably think. But Al Sharpton is evil. He's not just the kooky uncle we wish didn't come around. His heart isn't in the right place. He's an angry, militant, race-baiter whose agenda is to fuel the race fires and to make white people feel guilty for nothing more than being white. By doing so, he feels that he will leave some kind of legacy as a champion for blacks. When in reality, he's just part of the liberal system that has disguised their oppression as "help". It's not just that I'm opposed to everything he says. But I don't have any respect for his intellect and his ability to deliver a message. Frankly, I'm stunned that blacks have allowed such an incompetent fool to remain in a spokesperson role even when he's shown to be an idiot time and time again. To put it succinctly, I pity blacks for their connection to Sharpton and I feel strongly that they'll be much better off when he dies.
