Al Sharpton on Don Imus

n condemning radio show host Don Imus’ use of the term “nappy headed hos” to describe African-American basketball players, Al Sharpton said, “What is any possible reason you could feel that this type of statement should be forgiven and overlooked?” Sharpton also said that Imus’ show should be terminated from CBS and MSNBC. These are indeed questions that should be asked about Sharpton himself, and the Al Sharpton Show. Al Sharpton has as much right to talk about racial and ethnic tolerance as former Klan leader David Duke.

...Perhaps someone should take Don Imus to task for what he said, but Sharpton is probably the last individual–we won’t call him a “man”–on earth to do it. We still have a letter to the editor we published in the Poughkeepsie Journal on July 19, 1988, when Al Sharpton, Alton Maddox, and C. Vernon Mason were hurling reckless and false accusations of rape in the Tawana Brawley scandal. Louis Farrakhan also was involved, hence the reference to “gutter religions” as he calls Judaism.

We are not and have never been interested in hearing what Jesse “Hymietown” Jackson has to say. We meanwhile recommend that Al Sharpton and former Klan leader David Duke combine their radio shows, so the absolute dregs of American society will have one-stop shopping for racism, bigotry, hatred, and demagoguery of the lowest order. We are confident that Duke and Sharpton can share their favorite descriptions of Jews, while agreeing to disagree about their respective terms for Black people and Caucasians.

When I hear the name Al Sharpton I think of Tawana Brawley. And nothing else.

Apologizing to a racist for making racist remarks. What`s next, Sharpton apologizing to Hillary for calling Jews “diamond merchants”?

I just took an Al and wiped my Sharpton.

According to FoxNews, the Rutgers basketball team are claiming they are physically and emotionally exausted by what Imus said, and one player said his comments have scarred her for life. I could be wrong, but it`s possible Imus may face a lawsuit. And a black woman on Lou Dobbs said he has`nt apologized nearly enough. That he needs to go to black churches and black organizations all over the country and apologize.

.... hence the reference to “gutter religions” as he calls Judaism.

If there's one thing Shaprton is eminently qualified to comment on, it's the gutter.

And the National Association of Black Journalists want Imus fired. But they have no problem inviting race baiters Sharpton and Farrakhan to their conventions.
