AL SHARPTON, EVERYTHING A CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER, ISN'T...


Well once again everybody's favorite bogus preacher, and well-known professional race baiter, Al 'Bull Horn' Sharpton, has managed to demonstrate that he’s pretty much a waste of skin. Just yesterday Al took it upon himself to attack both the Tea Party and conservative talk show host, Glenn Beck. And how he did that was to describe it as being "really offensive" for Beck to compare the Tea Party movement to the civil rights movement. I thought old, sanctimonious, Sharpton was going to have a cow. I still find it pretty hysterical that this pathetic old loser can, and with a straight face, claim to be a civil rights leader. Especially when the only thing this pathetic fraud is interested, or is truly any good at, is finding new and creative ways for putting more coin in his pocket.

"I’ve been in civil rights all my life … and to equate civil rights to fighting these issues that have nothing to do with any rights that are denied, and it’s all about their polarization. It’s really offensive. I mean we can disagree, but we don’t miscast things as something that it’s not," Sharpton told the dozen or so viewers of his MSNBC ratings behemoth, "PoliticsNation." Actually, what he's been for most, if not all if his life, is a huckster, a flimflam man, and a racist thug under fulltime retainer to the Democrat Party. And essentially whenever asked to do so, he very cheerfully throws his own people under the proverbial bus and for no other reason than to guarantee that he's allowed to gain admittance to the party through the front door.

Sharpton likes to make the claim that he was youth director for the organization that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. founded and has been involved in it ever since. Yup, and I'd be willing to bet that if Dr. King were alive today, he would be just oh so proud of the cartoon character that Sharpton has become. I mean, let's face it, is there a self-professed civil rights leader anywhere, except for, of course, Jesse 'The Extortionist' Jackson, who is as far removed from Dr. King as is this buffoon, Sharpton? I just don't think so. And I can only assume that he thinks that by throwing around Dr. King's name it will somehow provide for himself a certain level of credibility the world of racial politics, and granted it does seem to works with those not wise to him.

In an effort to make his point, Sharpton even went so far as to show a clip of Beck saying, "This is a civil rights movement, and it’s time for us to start moving as a civil rights movement. We have to be willing to have the dogs be unleashed on us, because believe me – after what I saw today on the way they’re handling things at the Capitol, you’re not very far from having the same kind of oppression coming our way." Afterward, Sharpton nearly lost it, saying, "It’s unbelievable! He’s talking about imaginary unleashed dogs when the real heroes of the civil rights movement actually had to confront those dangers." And you can tell that Sharpton actually thinks of himself as being one of those heroes. But he’s just a loudmouth!

At last week’s Tea Party’s IRS rally, Beck made his case, 'Bull Horn' said, "but even as he talked about civil rights, the slogans on the signs told the story of fear and paranoia." Sharpton added, "It was similar to what we saw at previous Tea Party rallies, where this historic president was compared to a tyrant, accused of having a hit list. None of it slowed Beck down." Historic president? Really Al? Well, I take that back, because I suppose in one sense Barry can be considered as being rather historic. Because it’s only taken him a very short period of time, politically speaking, to get this country farther into the crapper than all 43 guys that came before him managed to do, combined. But I wouldn't call that historic, not exactly.

"Harriet Beecher Stowe, Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Frederick Douglass’s time was in the 1800s. Martin Luther King’s time has passed. This is our time, and the long march towards civil rights is here," Beck said at the rally. Sharpton, in response to Beck’s statement that "Dr. King’s time has passed," made the claim that it was "just the opposite." Sharpton said, "His dream lives on in battles over voting rights and women’s rights and gay rights and economic justice – all things that the far right has tried to block, obstruct, or roll back." Now he may think he’s worthy, but I think it’s rather presumptuous to go around putting words in Dr. King’s mouth. But that’s the kind of guy he is.

Sharpton’s a joke. He’s a legend in his own mind. His ‘career’ as a ‘civil rights leader’ consists, pretty much, of nothing more than his spending decades spreading some of the most vile hatred imaginable. What he is, is a pathetic fraud who does nothing more than use people to make a dime. He's a racial hit man for the DNC and nothing more. And he’s constantly on the prowl for any stray microphone or television camera that he can stick his ugly mug in front of. And stop and think about it for a minute, if yours was a political party that professed to take the issue of discrimination seriously, would Al Sharpton really be your go-to guy for all things racial? And if so, why? I mean here's a guy who's responsible for inciting more racial hatred than just about anybody.

So about the only way this clown has to gain for himself any level of credibility from those he whom he claims to be out to protect, is to go after conservatives like Beck. And, of course, the Tea Party. But if black folks were ever to finally come to their senses, they would see, and pretty quickly, that's it's guys like Sharpton that they really should have been wary of, not guys like Beck. Sharpton makes money, and a lot of it, off of the suffering of blacks. Conservatives, on the other hand, have always been the ones firmly on the side of minorities. Because it’s conservatives who have a desire to see every single American, regardless of their race, become as successful as they can possibly be. But, you see, Al’s only interested in his own success, screw everybody else.
