"I intend to engage on this. He'll find out rabbit hunting ain't fun when the rabbit's got the gun," Sharpton said.

TURN THE VICTIM INTO THE PERP:

“It shows that bigotry still exists in some corners,” Romney said in Clear Lake, Iowa, the second day he blasted Sharpton. “I thought it was a most unfortunate comment to make.”

Republicans can never go wrong bashing Sharpton. And Sharpton seemed just as delighted to mix it up.


Romney BLASTS and Republicans BASH but Sharpton delightedly mixes it up.

Sharpton shouldn’t be talking too much about guns...

Religious and racial bigotry is allowed when displayed by DEMOCRATS, especially those of a protected caste, such as Sharpton, didn’t you get the MSM memo on this??

A Democrat, by it’s very nature, cannot be biggotted, even when being a bigot. In Facts, Democrats can no longer commit crimes, either! Just ask anyone in the MEdia about this

The race card makes a strong hand, but surely he has overplayed it here.
If not, I think we can all just fold.

Gun? Sounds like a threat. Sharpton's comments should be used as the reason to give Romney the Obama style Secret Service detail.

The title you created “Sharpton Strikes Again at Romney” was not the title at the source. The title has now been changed to the original published title.

Please do not alter titles and help reduce the number of duplicate threads.

Thanks.

I wonder why Sharpton doesn’t ask Harry Reid the same question?...Reid is a Mormon convert.

Romney marching with Marin Luther King doesn’t count?

How about walking out of the ‘64 convention when a speech was calling for legalized discrimination. I am sure the Romney camp has the tape.

Bring it on Sharpton!

Oh and don’t forget that one of the Rutgers Women Basketball team member is from Ogden, Utah. Perhaps, he needs to apologize to Katie Adams and the basketball team for his religious slur.

I hope Sharpton pushes the hell out of it. Maybe, just maybe people will get sick & tired of the race game instead of always cowering in fear as way to many white people do.

Sharpton apparently thinks he can do just that. Slap down the white man. The race crap is old. I don’t give damn who did what 30 years ago or 50 years ago or 200 years ago.

Al Sharpton is fighting a proxy war for Hillary same as Hizbollah fights proxy wars for Iran. Sharpton is a Hillary attack dog and stooge. 
His assignment:
Bloody up her opposition. 
Slime her opposition.
While her royal heinous remains above the fray

Has Sharpton ever truly contributed ANYTHING to the nature of American political discourse?

What has this man truly done to rate all the media attention, his own show, constant access to print, to talk about what? What positive things has he truly done? When are conservative talk shows going to shut him down and not allow him to come on to spew gasoline on the bbq pit?

I think the above point about Hillary and Sharpton needs to be put on a banner at the top of every computer screen in America, and never forgotten for one minute of the remaining campaign.

When Hillary was first lady, my third daughter (she was in high school) had a friend who worked for the phone company in Chicago, and when Hillary came to Chicago for a visit, she had the phone company install eight phones in the hotel bath room. My daughter's friend installed them. There are many ways that Hillary will direct activities behind the scenes, so no-one knows what she's doing.

I'm convinced that she directed Sharpton, and the others behind the scenes, to push push push so that Imus would be taken down.

Sharpton is no Reverand minister when he says that those who do not share Romney’s God will make their decision about Romney. This is religious discrimination.

I hope Romney bitch-slaps that fat racist fraud til he cries. I’m sick of a riot-inciting, race-mongering, criminal fraud like sharpton getting his greasy, lying, fat face on TV talking sh*t. He would be in prison if our “legal” system worked, since he’s responsible for multiple deaths.
