Sometimes it is hard to take some of your comments seriously Harry
because you are so adamantly opposed to anything other than the
liberal way.


Thinking Cheney is trash is hardly "liberal."
No more than thinking Al Sharpton is trash is "conservative."
You can defend either if you wish. Pick one.

---------------------------------------

If you haven't, read up on Sharpton's past.


I just did that. Turns out he's cleaner than I thought. Don't care
for
him much, as he's a "race man." Not into that. And he's too loud.
But I see only misdemeanor convictions related to protests. Didn't
come
off well in the Brawley incident either, maligning people, then not
paying up in the civil suit. But nothing like this.

War, death and destruction.
So what's your exact beef with little Al Sharpton? Too uppity?

------------------------------------------

No, not too "uppity". I think he's a phony and a racist who uses
his credentials as a "Reverend" to influence and persuade people in
political matters.
He was ordained as a child as a Pentecostal minister. The type of
"ordination" he received in this faith is not main stream Christianity
unless you believe in speaking in tongues and the ability to heal the
sick and raise the dead. It's not based on any formal education in
theology. Sharpton attended college but dropped out after two years.

I watch his show "Politics Nation" from time to time mainly because
he can be quite funny sometimes. But usually I have to switch off to
the History Channel or Discovery Channel after a while because he
starts to get under my skin with some of his biased comments. I
thought it was interesting that in a recent advertisement for MSNBC,
the "Reverend" recites part of the Pledge of Allegiance, purposely
leaving out the "under God" part. Thought that was interesting for
someone who claims to be a minister in a Christian faith. But,
that's just me.
