Al Sharpton returns to White House for his 73rd visit with Obama

Reverend Al Sharpton apparently cannot get enough of the White House.

The prominent civil rights leader and MSNBC talk show host was invited Thursday to a meeting with President Obama and other African-American activists, making it his 73rd visit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue since 2009, according to some estimates.

In a press release sent out ahead of the summit, White House officials described the occasion as an 'opportunity to have a dialogue with the leaders about the issues facing their communities, including criminal justice, education, health care and economic development.'

Body language says a lot. It almost seems like Obama is even sick of Sharpton. He probably is!

The picture looks like a poor photo shopped Bobble-head version of AS. Or maybe that's just how he looks.
