at first i felt bad for her thinking she was a tool of the left...

after realizing she wasn't a tool but an instigator i felt bad for her family and what a fool she was making of herself...

now, i'm back to feeling sorry for her in a way one would feel sorry for someone has lost their mind, has become a complete joke, but everyone around them is egging them on and being 'encouraging' about how cool they are.

the media has put her on a pedastal and looks as foolish and misguided as she does.

its like one of those situations where you tell your kid not to stare at the homeless drunk puking over there in the corner as you walk down the street.

I've never been a parent, but, I suppose the other approach could be that if you have a snot nosed, disobideient, foul-mouthed kid, you could take him/her by the scruff of the neck and give him/her an up close and personal view of the puke heaving drunk while explaining that if you don't straighten your snot nosed, disobidient, foul-mouthed self up, you're gonna end up like that.

After Sharpton's visit she'll sound like Al Gore doing his Baptist preacher bit.

A perfectly good description. . .

In a way, it's tragic. Watching her little circus is a bit like watching a train wreck. And the press keeps egging her on, as you say. I'm furious with the press for encouraging an obviously mentally ill woman to continue to act out her bizarre drama.
