Neither one of them finished college and both are always championing phony heroes only to have it blow up in their faces. For AL Sharpton, we have Tawana Brawley, Duke Lacrosse and Mychal Bell, and for Sean Hannity, we have Hal Turner, Cliven Bundy and now Ferguson witness 40.

David Duke is the "Conservative Al Sharpton".
Hannity is the conservative Ed Shultz.

All of them suck.

I really can't say one way or the other. I have not seen / heard 5 minutes worth of Sean Vanity in years.

I was never impressed with him. He made everything about himself to the point that I simply stopped paying any attention at all to him.

I'm no Sharpton fan, but comparing him to an avowed racist is unfair. Sharpton may be a race-baiter, but I've never heard the bile come out of his mouth that I've heard come out of Duke's. Duke is the "Conservative Louis Farrakhan".

As does Chris Hayes and the OP link.

You'd think a journalist interested in truth would at least mention Anthony Shahid in any narrative involving Ferguson and Racism. Alas, the effeminate version of Rachael Maddow is neither journalist nor truthful.

Al Sharpton has a tireless history of saying implicitly and overtly racist things. He doesn't seem fond of the Jews, though. So maybe he and Duke can find some common ground.

I'd say that's more accurate.

I have really disliked Hannity for a long time. Sure, he occasionally parrots positions that are in line with my thinking but half the time he does it, I find myself pissed he's agreeing with me!!

The guy constructs an argument like a 12 year old.

I think Sharpton IS AT LEAST as racist as Duke.

That he doesn't openly say it doesn't change that he is.

Once you start judging people based on what you think they believe rather than what they've actually said or written, you're headed down a slippery slope.

Meh. I don't "think" Sharpton believes something. He's got decades of telling me what he believes. That he doesn't actually utter the words "I hate white people" doesn't change that everything the man has done in his life says "I hate white people".

I mean hell. He's given us a LOT more ammo to say he's racist than any of the cops did in the recent shootings of black men but that doesn't stop Sharpton from saying he knows they were racist.

Good God.

But hey, for giggles

quote:

2) “White folks was in the caves while we [blacks] was building empires … We built pyramids before Donald Trump ever knew what architecture was … we taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it."


His "white interloper" remark wasn't exactly solid either.

quote:

. . . In July 1991, a controversy erupted when Leonard Jeffries, a professor at New York’s City College gave a speech blasting “rich Jews” for financing the slave trade and for controlling Hollywood so they could “put together a system of destruction for Black people.” Sharpton rushed to defend Jeffries, and in the middle of the swirling controversy, declared, “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.” A day after Sharpton made that comment, in August 1991, a Jewish driver accidently ran over a 7-year old black boy named Gavin Cato in Crown Heights, Brooklyn and an anti-Semitic riot broke out in which Jewish rabbinical scholar Yankel Rosenbaum was stabbed to death. Instead of calling for calm, Sharpton incited the rioters, leading marches in the streets that included chants of “No Justice, No Peace!” and “Kill the Jews!” At a funeral for the boy who had been run over, Sharpton said, “The world will tell us he was killed by accident. Yes, it was a social accident. … It’s an accident to allow an apartheid ambulance service in the middle of Crown Heights. … Talk about how Oppenheimer in South Africa sends diamonds straight to Tel Aviv and deals with the diamond merchants right here in Crown Heights.” For those unfamiliar, “diamond merchants” was a thinly-veiled reference to Jewish jewelers.

The same can be said regarding Rush Limbaugh and Black people. He's never said "I hate Black people", but he hasn't made any effort to hide his resentment of Black folks, but folks here are always apologizing for inflammatory comments.

Comparing the president's "point man" on race issues to a talk show host isn't apples and apples.

What, does a degree confer some sort of awesomeness?

I'm no Hannity fan, but gee whiz people on the Left sure have an obsession with a degree.

Jonathan Gruber has a PhD. Yet, he's a moron.
