Sharpton's Slurs Worse Than Rush?

While MSNBC recently battered talk-radio giant Rush Limbaugh for calling Sandra Fluke a “slut” and “prostitute,” the cable news channel apparently looked the other way when it hired Al Sharpton, now a primetime host of MSNBC’s “PoliticsNation,” after he spewed the terms “homos,” “crackers,” “Chinamen,” “punk faggot” and the N-word freely.

On his March 5 “PoliticsNation” show on MSNBC, Sharpton ridiculed Limbaugh just as the talk-show host issued a second apology to Fluke “for using inappropriate words in a way I never do”:

NEVER using inappropriate words? Is that a joke? … This is absolutely appalling. He tries to apologize and he manages to insult leftists. … I am flat-out not buying the excuse. … We still haven’t heard from the Republican leadership. Where are they? Where’s the outrage? Someone show some leadership! … The bottom line is this apology was bogus. He doesn’t sound like a guy who’s really, truly sorry. This is not good enough. He needs to be taken off the air!

Is anyone caring about the floozie? Or Rush? I'm not caring at the rate of 500 miles an hour! Really? The economy is crashing in its 4th year, Obama doesn't care, and neither do 3 of the 4 Republican candidates to "fix" the problem. They are all fronting "popular" b.s. platform items while Ron Paul is trying to talk sense to everyone, but the people are listening to MSM. And, BTW, FOX has suddenly become MSM I guess just for the election season! WHY? I have no clue but I can assume MONEY had NOTHING to do with it!!! Really, AAACKKK!
America and our Constitution are doomed if Paul does not get in.

People are stupid, though....

Shorpton is totally irrelovent. He and Jesse Jackson are the biggest hypocrites of all-professional racists preaching about racism. Does anyone else see the irony here?

What makes you think you are any smarter? Really.

You only know what someone else has told you.

And here on the shore, what ever anyone has told you has been a half-truth at best.

AT BEST.

I'm not trying to insult anyone or put anyone down. It's just the way it is. And yes, I am from here.

11:53 back up your slur! People on the shore are ranked
as the some of the most intelligent in the country according to studies so again back up your ignorance.

7:13, while I disagree with some of 11:53's assertions, your's is as equally ridiculous. Please cite this study you speak of ... because something tells me you're full of sh*t.

Before I begin 'to back up my ignorance', perhaps you could point me in the direction of these so-called studies.

For the amount of colleges in this small area it is surprising the level of intelligence is not higher.

Either students are not retaining the education or more likely, they are leaving this area when schooling is finished.

For you to take it so personal...well, that speaks for itself.

Have a nice day.
