MSNBC's Al Sharpton hosted Dana Milbank of the Washington Post and Democratic strategist Bob Frum on his show last night to talk about the Herman Cain story. Sharpton reminded viewers that he was not one to "rush to judgment," on personal matters, but suggested there was more to the story.

Milbank noted that Cain's supporters were very passionate, and a large number would excuse him on the issue.

"We could find out that he was some kind of psycho-killer and a large number of his supporters would say, 'That's great, at least he wasn't in government.'" Milbank said sardonically.

"He's plainly, unequivocally, lying here," said Democratic strategist Bob Shrum, calling for the National Restaurant Association to release the records with the victim's names redacted.

"Let me just say for the record, Mr. Cain that it was Bob that called you a liar, Dana said you could have been a serial killer," Sharpton concluded, "I have opposed you because of the 999 plan, and because of the other things you have said policy, so my guests don't reflect my opinion. This is a personal matter that you will deal with, but for the policy matters you have already sunk in my book."

Herman has them worried...

He sure does!

[muawiyah]

I have always suspected Milbank to be a “psycho killer” ~ yet the top party bosses always stand behind him!

[thoolou]

*Facepalm. And Sharpton is relevant why?

Well, duh! Cain is a runaway slave off the Plantation and an uppity colored one at that, so naturally ever thing we sling around about him is TRUE! You know how 'those people' are!

Hey Al...how's Tawanna doing these days?

[Erik Latranyi]

When MSNBC apologizes for covering for John Edwards, I might give a flying frig what they think about our candidates!

[norwaypinesavage]

This certainly could be said about the Obama supporters, particularly in the legacy press.

The list is to long on Clinton supporters and the many women he sexual abused. Paid off, intimated,lost his law License

Al Sharpton hosted Dana Milbank of the Washington Post and Democratic strategist Bob Frum on his show last night...

At least Al had someone from both sides.....the dip$hits and the dumba$$e$.

[G Larry]

I see....a false charge of sexual innuendo is promoted to sexual harassment, presumed to true and then equated to the psycho-killer behavior....

Al failed to note the obvious racism in Shrum and Milbanks statements.

Awh, doesn't he sound like a seasoned elder statesman here?

But we remember the real Sharpton

[Darkwolf377]

I can`t imagine a more pointless segment than Dana Milbank on the Al Sharpton Snakeoil Hour or whatever it`s called. Reading these quotes one must be struck by what a waste of time actually watching this would be. So much of TV is just a waste of time--I mean, Dana Milbank`s thoughts on politics? `They`d support him if he were a psycho-killer`? Way to add something to the conversation.

What can we expect from a guy who makes Mark Shields look smart and E J Dionne look masculine?

This is a personal matter that you will deal with, but for the policy matters you have already sunk in my book."

How sad is it that Sharpton was the most reasonable and sane guy in the room?

"We could find out that he was some kind of psycho-killer raped women in Arkansas and use LEOs to bring gals to him so he could wave his wing-wang at them, and cheat on his income tax and rob the taxpayer blind and let his house be used as an anal-sex-for-profit scheme and a large number all of his supporters would say, and 'That's great, at least he wasn't in government he's not going to cut government salaries and employment and he's going to let us keep killing babies'" Milbank said not.

"We could find out that he was some kind of psycho-killer and a large number of his supporters would say, 'That's great, at least he wasn't in government.'" Milbank said sardonically.

Wow, could you imagine the reaction if someone had said this about Obama at this point in the election cycle, four years ago?

[substituting something appropriate for "he wasn't in government', of course]

This is a new low, even for the Misleadia.

Sharpton says there is more to the story.

Well Al, you Tawana tell us what that is???
