Al Sharpton Says He’s Now Working with Cardinal Dolan for NYC Unity
Mediaite ^ | December 26, 2014 | Andrew Desiderio

Speaking at the National Action Network’s Christmas dinner on Thursday, Rev. Al Sharpton said he is working with Cardinal Timothy Dolan on “something big” that will unite New York City in light of recent discord with the NYPD.

“I talked with Cardinal Dolan yesterday, and after the first of the year we’re talking about doing something big to bring the city together,” Sharpton said without elaborating. He also called for prayers for the families of NYPD Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos, who were killed last week by a gunman who invoked the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.

Sharpton condemned any acts of retribution, and instead stressed reform, adding that his movement is not “anti-police.” The family of Eric Garner was in attendance at the dinner.

Sounds like Sharpton's frantic---trying to buy time before the inevitable. Sharpton's got quite a resume---

tax cheat

cop hater

drug dealer

race pimp

Obama suckup

shakedown artist

The opportunistic turd knows he's gotta move fast. He's got a lot at stake: WH invites---his lucrative MSBNC gig---selling his NAN network to suckers like Bill Gates and Comcast who are negotiating to buy it.

So mentioning Cardinal Dolan's name----with or without the prelate's consent---just might do it.

Obama's BFF----MSNBC commentator and notorious race-baiter---
Sharpton's right in there--stoking the fires of hatred for cops.

How Al Sharpton (an Ebonics-talkin' race hustler) Got His MSNBC Gig EXCERPT ..... in 2009, NBC was part of the General Electric family of companies. GE decided to sell a controlling stake in NBC Universal to cable giant Comcast. What stood in the way of that goal, according to the article in Washingtonian, was Washington itself — regulators and lawmakers who would have to be convinced that this move would not stifle competition. (Money exchanged hands among pols, w/ Sharpton greasing the way.) In January, 2011, Washington approved the deal. And lo and behold, Al Sharpton — who had virtually no professional broadcast experience but did have a long history of legal entanglements and ethical quandaries — landed a prime-time show on MSNBC.

==============================================

Fox's Melissa Frances reported on The Kelly File that Al Sharpton not only hosts an MSNBC show, but that:

<><> MSNBC Corporate finances Sharpton's Ntl Action Network (NAN);

<><>Comcast is also one of Sharpton's financial backers

<><> MSNBC AND COMCAST are reportedly negotiating to buy Sharpton's NAN network.

Cardinal Dolan needs to run away as fast as he could.

Sharpton incited the protesters into becoming terrorists. He is America's number one criminal.

Yes, he is. Didn’t he invite Obama to the Al Smith dinner?

Mr. Dolan is a community activist in a robe.

No, it just means that the foolish and ever media-loving Dolan is looking for a few more grinning photo ops, and Al is playing on his vanity to be able to hide behind him. Even some of Al’s buds agree that he invited the cop killing, and I seriously think he’s worried that he might for once be held to account.

They’re never going to have an Al Smith dinner without inviting the POTUS or, in a presidential election year, both major parties’ candidates for POTUS. That’s one thing you really can’t hang on Dolan.

Funny. I would give that warning to Al Sharpton.

Cardinal Egan did not invite either presidential candidate in at least one year—because the Democrat was, of course, pro-abortion. I don’t remember which year it was. Probably 2004, since Kerry was a nominal Catholic.

Dolan has snuggled and cuddled with every pro-abortion politician available—quite apart from the Al Smith Dinner.

If that is their position, then they can’t complain when baby-killing politicians win the Catholic vote. They can’t complain when those same Catholics don’t even show up for Mass anymore...

If you want leadership, never look towards Dolan.

I don’t think anyone is looking to Mr. Dolan for leadership; do you see anyone looking up to him?

I’m surprised (and touched); here in northern NJ our archbishop has been reduced to a source of derision for our media.
