Al-lying sack aka Unscrupulton vacua has a lot to learn about the human race and a man like Jason would be a great beginning, if they just turned off the cameras and Al would shut his pie hole........never happen. It's about a moooooooooovement not truth or reality, remember!

This will keep Sharpton in the headlines until another national case of "racism" like the Duke case and he will be all over that. This whole thing will be forgotten in about a month. Sharpton is nothing but a used car salesman. He tells African Americans that they are being held down and discriminated against, but if you give ME your money, I'll make sure that doesn't happen. How guys like this and Jesse Jackson call themselves "Reverend" I will never know. This is nothing but window dressing.

They rape their own race on a daily basis and its getting disgusting what these two clowns get away with. I take that back about napppy headed, al looks like he has a cheap old women's wig on. Someone needs to give him some advice on hairstyles that look half way decent.[-( the right rev al sharpton and jessah jackson are the real nappy headed ho’s and I’m not being racist here.

He's in it to help himself." DING! Exactly. “Then I thought about it some more, and realized that Al Sharpton’s not really in this to help the black community. He’s in it to help himself.”

Keep it up. In regards to the post: I am getting fed up with our cultural acceptance of the poison most rap singers spew on a daily basis. It's the most disgusting yet accepted form of entertainment we have possibly ever dealt with. I don't have anything against the sound...I love the beat! But the lyrics are filled with hate and evil. In some ways, I don't care who stands up against it. But with this guy, I do. The problem with Sharpton is he wants to control the market rather than change lives. Instead of attempting to change the outlook of those that continue to fund the hate mongering "artists" he would rather just blot them all out. And that isn't right. Let capitalism take its course, as it should have with Imus. And don't even THINK about trying to get the government involved...lest we all lose our speech for offending anyone. Your blog might even dissapear if THAT were to happen ;D I’ve enjoyed your blog…some great writing, great sources, and great insight. Keep it up.
