    HARTSOCK: Excuse me, Reverend … Given your role in inciting the Crown Heights riots –
    SHARPTON: I wasn’t in the Crown Heights riots.
    HARTSOCK: You weren’t involved in the Crown Heights riots?
    SHARPTON: No, I came after the Crown Heights riots. Read the state report. We got there three days later and brought the peace. So get your facts right.

    Sharpton didn’t get his facts right. The Crown Heights riots occurred after young black New Yorker Gavin Cato was hit by a car driven by an Orthodox Jew. Sharpton spoke at the funeral. Here’s what he said:

    “Talk about how Oppenheimer in South Africa sends diamonds straight to Tel Aviv and deals with the diamond merchants right here in Crown Heights. The issue is not anti-Semitism; the issue is apartheid …. All we want to say is what Jesus said: If you offend one of these little ones, you got to pay for it. No compromise, no meetings, no coffee klatsch, no skinnin’ and grinnin’.”

    Later, Sharpton said, “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.” The riots resulted in the murder of an Orthodox Jew, Yankel Rosenbaum. As Rosenbaum’s brother wrote, “Based on everything we have seen and read, Sharpton never called upon the rioters to stop their anti-Semitism-inspired violence. He never called on the rioters to go home. To the contrary, he stirred them up. And three days of anti-Semitic violence became the Crown Heights riots.”

    This is the Al Sharpton leading the charge on the Trayvon Martin case – a racist extraordinaire, a charlatan, and a liar. And this is the Al Sharpton hired by Phil Griffin to lend gravitas to MSNBC’s evening lineup.

    The guy has done a complete turnaround and is now a respected news commentator and talk show host. He as renounced violence and has emerged as a moderate voice in the Black community. Don’t keep dredging up what his role might have been more than ten years ago in Crown Heights. That is old news and time to move on.

    to #7 and #8 ..animals don&#8 217;t change their stripes or whatever that saying is&#8 230;He hated Jews then and he hates them now. If he were repentant, then maybe he would pay the money he owes in taxes and for not telling the truth in that case where the young lady yelled rape, but was not. He remains an agitator&#8 230;you only hear from him when a poor black is a victim. Let him one time say that the blacks should stop killing blacks and that the blacks that have beaten up whites and yelled&#8 221;payback&#8 221; should stop. Has a black ever done anything for him to condemn.? I think not.

    I don’t know anyone who actually likes Al Sharpton. Nobody at all. There’s never an argument about it.

    What about Tawana Brawley? The whole incident was a complete lie from beginning to end, he took up the cause, and as a result of his lies, a state trooper was so despondent that he committed suicide. His whole being is one of sheker and falsehood.

    Hey, Sharpton
    Liar Liar
    Yo’ pants on fire
    You love to yell
    and raise the ire
    But you’ll go to hell
    No matter your attire

    You, of Tawana Brawley fame
    and the Korean boycott game
    You should be hangin’ your head in shame
    You lyin’ mobster, lie is your name

    You take every opportunity
    To divide the community
    Whether white or black
    You love to attack
    Just love to stir the pot
    Make up stories, take a shot
    You are the most despicable creature
    Your lies are yo’ best feature

    Like Pinochio one day
    You’ll get caught
    Lyin’ don’t pay
    In the meantime, we know yo’ game
    You lyin’ liar, you are so lame

    Hey, Sharpton, Liar, Liar
    Don’t look now, yo’s pants on fire…

    What do you call A Trench that Al Sharpton hides in during time of war?

    What do you call a Ski Patrol Agent who helps Al on the ski slopes when he hits a bad bump?

    What do you call Al Sharpton when he lies down naked on the golf course?

    Sharpton is a race-baiting pig who lies for a living and profits from stirring up phony racial issues among the dumbest people in America.

    Then again, he is not the only one. Jesse Jackson is no better. Mark Levin is no better. Sean Hannity is no better. Louis Farakhan is no better.

    All of these men make their living by spreading propaganda to the ignorant and the stupid in America.
