Sharpton Bashes Ted Cruz, Palin for ‘Megalomania and Narcissism’ Over Obamacare Fight
Mediaite ^ | September 23, 2013 | Josh Feldman

Sarah Palin has jumped into the fray over defunding Obamacare, but Al Sharpton and his panel Monday said it’s less about the politics and more about the attention. Sharpton, Krystal Ball, and Cynthia Tucker all agreed that Palin, as well as Cruz, is in this fight partly to stand for conservative values, and mostly out of her own “megalomania and narcissism.”

Sharpton said it’s “time to grab the popcorn” now that Palin has weighed in at a time when the GOP is on the “brink of its own civil war.” Tucker said Palin’s just making things worse by throwing in her lot with the “crazy” Republicans, calling the intra-party fighting a “nightmare” for GOP moderates.

Ball argued that Palin and Cruz are a “match made in heaven” because both have one thing in common: they are “motivated by their own selfish interest” in everything they do, and this Obamacare fight is less about ideology and more about all the media attention. Sharpton agreed that they suffer from “megalomania and narcissism,” with Tucker adding if they really cared about the conservative cause, “they wouldn’t be destroying the Republican party.”

The one bright spot Ball found was that Palin doesn’t have nearly the same allure that she used to nor does she have the fundraising pull despite her “illusions of grandeur.”

When a liberal says Obamacare is the law of the land, remind them that immigration enforcement is the law of the land.

THUD

That's the sound of a big ol' club coming down decidedly on the head of a very, very stupid person.

I REALLY want a magic wand that I could tap and zap one into non-existence, but the FBI might interpret my sound effect was really a violent aggressive threat, so I'll hope the club knocks some sense into a person, of incompacitates their ability to speak, rendering them inoperable and ineffective.

I just looked her up. She has a show on MSNBC and was the unsuccessful Democrat nominee for congress in Virginia several years ago. No wonder she’s jealous of GOVERNOR Sarah Palin, who has won half a dozen elections, is a household name throughout the world and almost certainly makes much more money on-air than Miss Ball.

Sharpton should thank whatever demon watches over him every day that it's not possible for a person to be “wished into the cornfield”!

He's a VERY bad man!
