Rev. Al sez B.O. getting uppity

2008-04-30

Barack Obama made a call for nonviolence in the aftermath of the Sean Bell verdict - infuriating the Rev. Al Sharpton, who accused the presidential candidate of trying to "grandstand in front of white people," sources told The Post. During what a source described as a "heated" phone call yesterday, Sharpton told Obama he was disappointed with the Illinois senator's words on Friday, when Obama said "resorting to violence to express displeasure" was "completely unacceptable and counterproductive."

#9 Constitutionally speaking (which is what this country needs to do more of) - is this a federal or state court issue? Were these cops feds? If so I see why Conyers is sticking his ugly face into it. If this was a Queens, NY deal why is the fed courts getting involved. Somebody pls enlighten me as I am ignorant &/or confused.

#4 the Grievance Mongering Association must be ticked:

- not only is Wright increasing the supply of class I grievance mongerers

- Obama's diss of Wright's comments may decrease the demand for grievance mongerers

#1 Not Black Enough, huh, "Reverend"?
Maybe the next time Barry's in town you can take him down to Freddy's Fashion Mart and he can buy you a new suit to make up for it.
Oh, wait. Freddy's ain't there anymore...
