Now Al is just plain lying. Republicans voted in larger numbers for civil rights than dems did.

[Mo1]

They got the right to vote under democrats??

Ummm .. Al .. it was Republican that passed it

[petercooper]

lying racist pig

[nopardons]

OMG....now the damned " FORTY ACRES AND A MULE" line.

They never got the 40 acres and a mule,so they decided to take this donkey and ride it as far as it would take them?

I think Sharpie Sharpton is the black Michael Moore and he doesn't know history at all. He's claiming that blacks got voting rights and civil liberty under Dems.

[hole_n_one]

Jessie Jackson giving the Rev a standing O.

Bunch of losers

[Choose Ye This Day]

Civil Rights Act never would've passed if it were up to the Democrats only.

[TC Rider]

no

[RightWingMama]

Al, go Cheney yourself!

[cyncooper]

He's back to addressing GWB's question of "Does the democrat party take your vote for granted".

He points to how GWB said the Republicans are the party of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass.

Sharpton: We never got the 40 acres and a mule, so we decided to take this donkey and take it as far as it could take us.

Crowd the loudest I've heard it except for maybe a couple times---longer applause I think than even for Clinton.

Louder still. I think Sharpton has the most enthusiastic response of the demcon.

Back to addressing GWB saying those that earned their vote get their vote

Says civil rights and voting acts "under democrat"

He's got the crowd in the palm in his hand.

Reason "we took Florida so seriously" because our vote was soaked in the blood of...and he names names.

This vote can't be bargained away or given away.

This is what he is saying

[Miss Marple]

He is not nuts. He is evil.

[Normal4me]

Here ya go Al! Good f'in luck!

[Petronski]

lying racist pig

Now I know you meant Sharpton. I agree.

[lainie]

Why does he keep saying the vote will be taken away??

[TankerKC]

He is wrong!

[the Deejay]

Al's speech caused my pc to crash! Had to reboot. grrrrr..

[nopardons]

NEVER!

[OXENinFLA]

"Our Vote was soaked in the blood of martyrs"


JUST CHECKING, DID I HEAR HAT RIGHT!?!?!

[K1avg]

Terry McAuliffe's head is now explode.

[afropick]

I don't know about you, but I can hear the pounding of moderates feet to our side after listening to Sharpton. Only a fool would demand reparations.

[Mo1]
