Paula Deen is getting a raw deal for using the n-word 27 years ago ... at least that's the opinion of none other than Rev. Al Sharpton.
We asked Sharpton -- a renowned figure in the Civil Rights movement -- if Paula should be forgiven, and he was somewhat sympathetic, saying ... "A lot of us have in the past said things we have regretted saying years ago."
The Rev. added Paula should instead be judged based on the outcome of the current lawsuit ... from a former employee accusing Paula and her brother of using offensive language.
"You can't deal with what is fair and not fair till we see the outcome of the present circumstances she's accused of ... not something 20 years ago."
Sharpton also addresses another hot button racial issue ... fried chicken.
Really. You gotta see it.

I guess I’m the only person here who doesn’t know who Paula Deen is-—but I never watch television, so that might be why—LOL!
I didn’t realize that was 27 years ago. Not that it matters to me. I saw Obama less than 27 minutes ago ...
He’s only saying that because she’s an Obama-loving Rat.
The money has been delivered.
So Sharpton now has authority to grant absolution on past racial peccadilloes?
>> “The money has been delivered.” <<
.
No, they just know that she is one of them.
Sharpton is the pope of pimp.
She’s a very popular old southern style cook on Food Nutwork.
She’s an Obamaturd? I thought she was hung out to dry because she was Pubbie’?
Not only that, she adores Jimmy Carter.
I bet one thing they share in common is a dislike of Joooooos.
Do the words “white interlopers” ring a bell?
Where does it say that?
Well, then. We have a lot in common.
I’m a very popular old southern style cook in my house—LOL!
Cause she’s a HUGE DEMOCRAT!!!! There is NO other reason for that RACE-BAITOR to COVER for HILLBILLY Paula DEEN, who is a HUGE DEMOCRAT!!!
It doesn’t. I was just asking the question.
