FLASHBACK: Sharpton claims Giuliani insulted Christians and Muslims over inauguration date

[AZRepublican]

How many Freeper's remember this from 1994?

New York City Mayor-elect Rudolph Giuliani's decision to change the date of his inauguration from the traditional January 1st to Sunday, January 2 was called "the ultimate insensitivity" by the Rev. Al Sharpton. Giuliani changed the date so that his Jewish friends could attend without violating their Sabbath.

Sharpton, however, claimed that Giuliani had insulted Christians and Muslims, and that it was "improper to pick and choose between Sabbaths." Sharpton insisted Giuliani's action would "lead to further polarization of the city." Supporters of the new mayor, though, called Sharpton's charges outrageous and wondered why he waited until now to bring this up, given that Giuliani publicly made this decision a month ago.

....you mean the Al Sharpton of Tawana Brawley fame....LOL. calling the kettle black....oops....didn't mean that Al

It would very helpful if someone set up a web site, or compiled the data, that shows 'predictions', or politicians telling us what will happen, and then show what actually did happen.

Like 3 Martini Kennedy telling us that welfare reform would put millions more children at risk.

[technomage]

It would also be very helpful if this list included so called experts in the media, and pundits.

Reading their own words would be great. Seeing them say it (ala video) would be undeniable

And Al Sharpton has been insulting the rest of America
ever since....JJ61

I grew up in Central Florida in the 1960's. I remember the daughters of a Jewish family that lived down the street used to spend part of their summer vacations helping poor blacks in South Florida. This program was through their synagogue. Jews have helped blacks throughout American history. But race whores like Sharpton, Jackson and Farakhan discount this in deference to Islam--a religion historically as alien to African Americans as it is to Europeans.

Al Sharpton, joke personified.

[BunnySlippers]

The King of Polarization accuses Rudy of being polarizing!

[doc1019]

Not that much internet space available!

[BunnySlippers]

BTW, Rudy REFUSED to meet with Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson when he was mayor.

WAY. TO. GO!

Rudy knows shakedown artists when he sees them.

Kicks out Arafat and tells the Shiek to get lost. Priceless!

[EagleUSA]

This racist lout again criticizes people he would have to stand up 1000 times to equal a shadow of....I guess we could not have a measure of good Americans that are respectable --- unless we had ones that live in the gutter and are reprobates.

[muawiyah]

Next thing you know this guy's going to be demanding they start closing the grocery stores on Wednesday night (like they were doing in most places 50 years ago).

It's worse than that. Islam introduced the slave trade to Africa.

[NorCalRepub]

.NO soup for you....*smile*

[muawiyah]

Look here now, African people are as resourceful as any other human beings when it comes to enslaving others.

Don't give the Arabs credit where it's simply not due. They didn't teach the Africans to create slaves and sell them.

Al Sharpton??? That Racist Moron?

Shows Rudy has vast experience in Domestic and Foreign policy.

[bboop]

As a Christian, Al, you do NOT speak for me. Thanks anyway. I am not offended by this, but I am by YOU.

[IOWAfan]

no soup... Rotflmao

I knew there was a reason I hated Rudy.
if that's the best Al can do, wow.

[weegee]

Al "Jew them down" Sharpton.

The man is a bigot. And the left never mentions his "religion" as a Reverend the way they quake at the prospect of Mitt Rommey, "M-O-R-M-O-N".

Then again, Harry Reid, Senate Majority Leader, is never called out for his own Mormonosity.
