Anyone else think Rev. Al was about to come across that screen and whip Pat's butt?

[Rosco T.]

Preach it Rev!

1. You know it...

I knew he wouldn't let the "your boy" comment go. Good for Al for calling Pat on that shit. Pat knew what he was saying...smirking like the coward that he is...

[eleny]

2. He needs to be banned

[monmouth]

3. MSNBC should be deluged about complaints on this. How dare he

refer to the President of this nation in that manner? I'm so spitting angry right now...

[Syrinx]

4. Buchanan is awful

But I don't know why liberals like Sharpton. He's a racist and anti-Semite, and has incited riots and murders. And it's like nothing ever happened.

[whathehell]

5. Al Sharpton has "incited riots and murder"?

I think that needs a link.

[Syrinx]

6. look up the Crown Heights Riots

And Freddie's Fashion Mart. While you're at it, read about when Sharpton referred to Jews as "diamond merchants." And I'm sure you're familiar with the Tawana Brawley incident. Sharpton is not a good person.

[whathehell]

7. You look it up

and post the link...I'd say it's your responsibility

since you've made the allegations.

[Syrinx]

8. so you want me to choose the link?

No thanks. I gave some search terms to use. Reach your own conclusions. And try to be honest with yourself.

[whathehell]

9. I doubt that's your real issue...The fact is, you made the assertion..It's up to you to back it up.

[Syrinx]

11. my "real issue," in this case is hypocrisy

I agree that Pat Buchanan is a racist. It is obvious, though not for the reason stated in this thread. (Buchanan routinely uses the phrase "your boy" in political discussions, and not just about Obama, or even black politicians. It's one of his catch-phrases.) Still he is obviously a racist. I don't deny that for a second.

Yet you can't admit that Sharpton is anti-Semitic, which is just as obvious. He stereotyped Jews as "diamond merchants," and said "If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house." Those remarks led to riots in which at least one man was murdered, as the crowd chanted "kill the Jew."

And after that murder, Sharpton still chanted "No justice, no peace."

Yet you still imply that I criticize Sharpton because he is black.

In your view, do black people get a free pass for hate-speech?

[whathehell]

12. It's not my hypocrisy, bro...I simply told you it was your responsibility to provide the links

and where in any of my posts do you see me "imply"

that you criticize Sharpton because he is black?

I wasn't aware of his making the comments you

quote above.

If he did, then yes, I'd agree he is anti-semitic.

[Syrinx]

13. then let's end this on a point of agreement

The statements I have quoted are a matter of public record.

Best of wishes to you.

[whathehell]

14. Agreed.

Best wishes to you too.

10. He adds a needed voice, we don't need ivory soap we need voices...

And I hope Anthony Weiner and Alan Grayson's voices come back to us soon.
