Well I didn't want to confuse the issue with that last one, them Macadamians are nuts you see.

And a handful of yahoos on a message board is an official position of a global group of protesters? Come on now, I don't take yubba's ramblings as the official platform of the Tea Party, and you shouldn't do something similar.

And you didn't read far enough down the page, because people did call it out as being racist.

I did see Al Sharpton at the protest in NY. I'm not sure what this opportunity for Al is here. :hmmm:

If there's a camera around, Al Sharpton's going to do his darnedest to get in front of it.

They don't need that. Anything he grabs a banner for makes it a hoax.

Look at how many lives his brand of activism cost the Duke Lacrosse kids, as well as the ruined life of the prosecuter who feared him and hurriedly indicted innocent kids.

No thanks. They don't need a racebaiting blowhard mucking up their already huge accomplishments.:)

Only if there is a opportunity for a few dollars. Opportunist: see Al Sharpton

There's plenty to blame Al Sharpton for without making stuff up. Nifong made his own mistakes.

I don't think I am making anything up. He failed to follow due process, yes. It was also due to media pressure exerted by Sharpton. Like vultures to the corpse they all swarmed down there. Maybe Nifong wanted to be a hero, but the media would not have turned it into a hotbed racial issue if not for the racebaiter.
Tawana Brawly. (now that was just wrong) Sharpton is garbage.
