Good riddance to Sharpton. Biggest fraud on MSNBC.


Not even close to the frauds on Faux News.

I see little difference except in slant. Both are advancing an agenda
and disguising it as news.
They never let the facts get in the way of the story.



Sharpton has a long history of failure to pay taxes (still owes
millions), falsely accusing people of crimes, causing civil unrest
and much more.

He was "ordained" as a Pentecostal minister at the age of 9 or 10, later
became a Baptist and retained his status as a minister, adopting
"Reverend" as his title. Never had a church or parish. He dropped out
of college after less than two years and does not hold a degree in
anything, let alone in theology.

I suppose anyone can claim the title of Reverend. Hell, the deluxe
ordination package I ordered for $70 on the Internet a few years ago
probably cost more than whatever investment Sharpton has in his "Rev."
title.



So why is O'Bama so mesmerized by Sharpton? That's what I can't figure out.

Sharpton can reliably deliver votes, particularly the people who blame
everything bad in their life, on someone else.

agreed. I cant say I've seen much future with him. Does that make me a racist now?



"Sharpton can reliably deliver votes."

Right-wing nonsense, unless you are somehow referring to efforts to pick
up folks without cars or living in nursing homes or whatever, and
driving them to the polls.


Yeah, picking up bums, giving them a pack of cigarettes and telling
them who to vote for.
Coaching alzheimer and dementia patients about who to vote for is even
more insidious.

My mom (and when I was old enough, me, too) called people on election
day to remind them to vote and to ask if they needed a ride to the
polling place. I suppose we were "reliably delivering vote," too, eh?

Of course, with all the efforts of right-wingers to disenfranchise poor,
black, latino, studunt voters, it takes even more effort on the other
side to help those eligible to vote...to vote.


Maybe if you lived in a more forward thinking state, they could just
mail in their ballot.


If the Repugnants were not using the scam issue of voter fraud in so
many states, it would be easier for any citizen to register to vote
without being dependent on having personal transportation or not
encountering someone at registration giving them an unnecessary hard time.

I think we were "registered" here when we got our driver's licenses.

I don't like mailing in a ballot. I like going to the elementary school
on election day and casting my ballot in person. That way, I get to
enjoy the confrontations in the parking lot from the crazy third party
candidates, probably the sort of "indies" you would favor. Two cycles
ago, I was entertained briefly by a "Constitutional Libertarian
Christian," or something like that, who was also a birther. You just
don't see guys like that so much if you mail in your ballot.
