Title: Al Sharpton overreacting to cartoon
Post by: Eringobraugh on February 19, 2009, 11:09:58 AM

I personally dont believe this cartoon is racial...I think its basically saying that a monkey must of written the stimulis bill,which I totally agree with......Actually,i think a monkey would have done a better job!

Frankly I think -his- reaction is racist.  No one ever got angry over cartoons aimed at Bush because of his race; why should be get upset over them just because Obama isn't white?

Sharpton and Jesse Jackson NEVER miss an opportunity for FREE publicity or photo opportunities. They have lived off the backs of many people through the years. We are still waiting for an answer to the mystery, "Rev. Jackson just where is your church?"  If anything controversial comes about you can count on them to be there for publicity purposes. No more and no less! All show and all blow! They serve nothing other than their own agendas!

Look what Jesse Jackson said about Barack Obama something like 14 months ago or similar.  Wasn't too flattering.

Well, and it was real event that happened 2 days before when a chimp attacked a friend of the owner.....it's not like they picked the animal out od the air.  What if had been a rabid squirrel?

Did you read the one about hte High school inIllinois that raised the ire of the NAACP last week when it cut 8 black players from the basketball team?  Here's the rub, there were no white players on the team AT ALL.  Too funny..... ???
