The voice sounds familiar. “Hey, Al, this is Hillary Clinton, and...” Is it really her? Yep. Clinton is actually calling Sharpton for—pinch yourselves, folks—campaign advice. She wants to know what issues she should raise in an upcoming debate at Howard University. The focus is on black issues, and, well, who is a better judge of black issues in America than the ubiquitous face of them?
Sharpton has the cigar back in his fingers now. He wants the phone back. “Here,” he says, making sure to save the message. “Now, check this out.”
Another voice. “Al, this is Barack Obama...” Obama! Seriously? The senator also wants advice about the debate at Howard. Sharpton has calculated the values closely. “Hillary called three days before the debate,” he says. “Barack called like three hours before.”
And on the surface, that’s partly what this primary season comes down to for Sharpton: a race to see which candidate can kiss his ring the most, the fastest, and with the most sincere pucker.

Google on "Sharpton" AND "Tawana Brawley" or "Crown Heights" or "Freddy's Fashion Mart" to know more about this individual.
In 1995, Sharpton's National Action Network paraded around a Jewish-owned store in Harlem while chanting racist and anti-Semitic epithets like "Bloodsucking Jews," "cracker," "Jew bastard," and "cracker lover," to which Sharpton added "white interloper."
In 1991, a rampaging Sharptonite mob killed a rabbinical student named Yankel Rosenbaum while screaming "Kill the Jews."
Don't forget the Tawana Brawley scandal of 1988, or Sharpton's alleged recent use of the phrase, "Jewing numbers up and down."
Merry Christmas to all.
Six Degrees of Separation?
My wife’s(1) uncle(2) sublet a store in Brooklyn to a guy(3) who pissed off a black customer(4) who went crying to one of Sharpton’s minions(5) who got Sharpton(6) to approve and sponsor protests against those whom he likely considered to be “Yellow Interlopers”. Chanting marchers with signs, safety barricades, specially-assigned overtime cops, the whole shebang.
Does Sharpton have a job with Fox? They seem to have him on once a week.
I was looking for a still from the movie, "I'm Gonna Git You, Sucka," a shot of the little guy inside the big hat of bigger guy at the "The Big Brim Club." I was going to call the little guy "Al Sharpton" and the big guy, "Al Gore." 'Cause Big Al Gore is the Big Pimp now, the Shakedown King.
But all I could find was this. I don't know what the dickens it is, but I seemed kind of funny.
Merry Christmas Doc...
