O'Reilly 4/11 props up Sharpton...again

Posted on 04/12/2007 7:55:24 AM PDT by 1Old Pro

I watch O'reilly from time to time and generally enjoy the program.

What is a constant irritant with O'reilly (among some others) is his constant promotion of Sharpton as if Sharpton is deserving of the pedestal.

Did Sharpton ever apologize to Steven Pagonnes? NO Until he does then the media should ignore Sharptoin.

Al Sharpton is a line in the sand for me.

He is virulent race baiter, anti-semite, riot inciter and perjurer. A civil society would have outcast him a long time ago, not have a national political party give him a podium to speak his trash.

Hub caps. O’Reilly made a joke a few years ago about kids at an event out stealing the hub caps off cars in the lot. He was labeled a racist over it and he’s been cowed when it comes to race since. He’s gone on a few jihads to prove he’s not racist since. Today he’s thinking, “there but for the grace of God go I” and so he’s not going to take on Big Al. JMHO.

He’s a friend of Bill and Hillary.

That's exactly what I thought....he's buying "protection" for having al on his show. Sharpton wins again.

Agreed, Sharpton is disgusting. Giving him air time and credibility is disgusting as well.

The factor last night tracked down a newspaper columnist who had written in the paper that Bill was a “virulent racist”. She refused to appear on the show so they tracked her down in a parking lot. The first thing she said after being confronted was “Why didn’t you just call me and ask me these questions.” The Factor interviewer said I just called you yesterday and you refused to answer any of my questions. When asked why she wrote Bill was a racist, get this, she said becasue Bill uses the term illegal alien rather than undocumented worker.

I liked the segment with the lib name-caller who couldn’t give examples of Bill’s hate-mongering. Priceless!

I watch O’Reilly frequently, But I can’t stand how he legitamizes Al Sharpton. At least call him up on Tawana Brawley.

There is a school of thought which maintains that routinely parading unintelligent, inarticulate clowns before the public serves to weaken the very agenda that said clown promotes and thereby weakens their following. Many years ago I was informed by a well placed individual that even the FBI was using Sharpton for this very purpose. So eseentially, Sharpton is a dupe and useful idiot.

I agree. Let the Sharptons of this world stake out their positions, territory and thinking for the world to see while the masses educate themselves and “vote” in their living rooms.. GO AL, GO!

That’s okay. Dennis Miller came on later in the show and pretty much saved the show.

Sharpton is indeed a vile piece of work.

Equally disgusting is watching another “Reverend” - what Church claims these jokers, by the way? - Jesse Jackson - who sired a bastard, if memory serves, pretending with Sharpton to be the moral compass or prophetic voice for society.

Exactly the low-down hypocrisy Jesus Christ condemned in the Scribes and Pharisees of his own day.

I thought that was great too. She knew what questions were going to be asked, such as providing an example of Bills “devisive” reporting, and she didnt have one example!! Thats the way it is with all Liberals - they spout off ad infinidum, but when theyre asked to back their spew up with facts, dead silence!

Sharpton is a RACIST/BIGOT, and so is Jessie Jackson. These two HYPOCRITES have made their fame and fortune off of the black community, by promoting the very things they have given the appearance of combating. The only difference between them and that duffus Imus, is their complexions. The’re just an ebony version of the Klu Klutz Klowwns.

Yup.

He’s right up there with Reggie “Hymietown” Jackson, Julian Bond and a bunch of other racialists.
