Why will the democratic party not take a stand & denounce Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton?
http://www.amazon.ca/Shakedown-Exposing-Real-Jesse...
I constantly hear democrats claiming their party is more committed to equality and civil rights, than republicans.
OK, then why is it Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton are suppported by liberals, to represent black civil rights?
Dr King's message is God's message- to forgive, to unite the races, to love one another, heal wounds. If you suppport civil rights and you support Dr King's message, then you can't support race baiters and false leaders like Jackson and Sharpton.
Black people are offended to assume Jackson and Sharpton represent them.
Liberals claim it's the media who appointed these cretins to represent black people.
The media claims its the democrats.
We all know these guys are bad people; so if liberals really are committed to civil rights and claim to be the party for civil rights, why not publicly denounce Sharpton and Jackson and start following Dr King's message?
Liberals- this is the limus test for credibilty- denounce race baiting and follow Dr King's message or continue to be viewed as hypocrites.
Actually you would gain a tremendous political advantage by ending race baiting and committing to follow Dr King's message, do you have the courage to do it, though?
Wow, liberals have to resort to name calling when their hypocrisy is exposed.
I agree the fundamentalists need to be told to stop legislating morality but your party claims to be for something that you are not.
Read the biography of Jackson to get the real character- Jessie was on the ground level when King was shot, he rushed to the balcony, smeared blood on his clothes so he could tell the press he cradled Dr King's head, as he died. Dr Ralph Abernathy and other respected black leaders verified it.

Denounce someone who is a minority? Are you kidding, that would destroy their fanbase, even IF Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson (Al more so than Jesse) have gotten out of hand like we are still in 1963. I know of Martin Luther King Jr, I also KNOW of his MESSAGES, and HE WAS NOTHING LIKE ANY.....and I WILL SAY IT AGAIN>>...LIKE ANY of these modern day "wannabe" Civil Rights leaders!!!! Martin Luther although he knew a young Jesse Jackson would not have agreed with most of these grandstanding displays as we have seen in recent years!

Well, I remember Dr. King and his message and media in those days and he was hated by many even though he was a man of peace.
As a matter of fact people talked about Dr King the same way you talk about these other guys. I'm not defending, just trying to clarify history.

Al Sharpton's inflammatory rhetoric was responsible for 8 deaths in Harlem. Not to mention Tawana Brawley. Libs are scared of him.

surely. in any different case they embody no longer fairness, yet a double ordinary which contravenes their ideals on "separate yet equivalent " to confirm! they could desire to no longer purely show regret to the Duke gamers, yet to the american people for thus assailing our shape and the unfastened speech promised via it, decrease than the guise of "civil rights activism". in simple terms the place are those 2 "reverends" church homes? the place do they actually "pastor" a congregation. What are their credentials in divinity/doctrinal study and from what corporation of discovering or seminary? the place is their management in promotion FORGIVENESS to a guy who's clearly honest in his apology and is being no longer something decrease than railroaded via people who've admitted to the two spitting in people's nutrients in step with their race, or relating an entire city as "Hymietown". undergo in techniques this little factor too. Sharpton lists certainly one of his artwork stories as excursion supervisor for JAMES BROWN! Yeah, i'm effective that replaced into all squeaky sparkling. the two the accuser and the prosecutor interior the Duke case could desire to pass to reformatory for existence. it is how long the scholars falsely accused and charged will could desire to stay with the strikes of those 2! Imus could desire to pass to XM and turn the poultry to CBS and MSNBC. i'm going to then purchase or perhaps sell XM centers! via the way, what's MSNBC devoid of the I-guy? NADA! they could now substitute their logo to that. As for GM - howdy you idiots in Michigan consisting of a few kin of mine who artwork there - i'm now procuring a KIA!

I'm also distrustful of those two. But the political reality is that blacks as a group tend to vote heavily Democratic; it is an unwise politician who tries to upset that applecart.

For the same reason the Republican party doesn't denounce Bush, Cheney, Giuliani and Huckabee.

'Why should they? what makes them any worst than the Christians I don;t agree with most of anyone of them including Billy Graham Jr or Pat Roberson and they visit the White House and the President and its because I don't like mixing Politics with Religion. To much of that.

Where do you get this $#!+. I'm a liberal and I have never thought that JJ or AS speak for me or others. They speak for themselves. If they claim something that is untrue, then don't believe them.
