The Reverend Al Sharpton called for Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to step down because of his poor management of race and policing in his city since the release last month of a video showing a white Chicago police officer firing 16 shots into a black teenager and subsequent officer violence.
Mr. Emanuel is vacationing in Cuba, while demonstrators are circulating petitions for his resignation, and protesters blocked traffic on the city’s famed shopping district on Michigan Avenue on Christmas Eve chanting “Rahms got to go in 2016!â€
“You talk about a crisis on steroids,†Mr. Sharpton said Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe†program. “You are in the middle of a recall vote, they are circulating petitions in Chicago to recall you, the state legislature is going to have to deal with it and you don’t even come back? This is the height of either insensitivity or lack of intelligence or arrogance, or a reasonable combination of all three.

Now Rahm-a-dan is going to have to go grovel to yet another entitlement pimp...
This is HUGH!
Leninites v. Trotskyites
I don’t believe Sharpton’s bluster; he is paid by evil every day and it is kabuki theatre.
this should be good- two dem cronies going after each other?
Asylum, soon, I think.
al still alive?
rahm cut short his love fest with castro to fly back to sh*tcago to defend his turf

Who paid for the vaca? My first thought was that Rahm is on the hunt for his next career move and/or business opportunity.

“Emanuel is set to arrive back in Chicago on Tuesday afternoon, she said. The mayor’s office did not say when he left for Cuba or when he had been scheduled to return.”
Yea, I’m loving this. Popcorn anyone?
Getting a beachfront property when he retires!!
Two of the worst people on earth are at war with each other. Hose ‘em down with kerosene and let the fun begin.
Fun to see those people marching...you know darned well they didn’t vote for the Republican in the mayoral race. They voted for Rohm ...they OWN the problem.
You try being Mayor of Chicago Al and see what happens
I appreciate all the comments but I think some of them are overstated. Yes, the left goes after the left but not like the right goes after the right. When was the last time you saw a knockdown-dragout like the pubbies are doing right now?
Even Shrillary v. 0bongo in ‘08 wasn’t as venal as we get against our own (not that I wouldn’t love to see it).
The rev just momentarily wandered off the plantation - he’ll heel soon enough.
Pot meet kettle....
Not a Rahm fan, but the fact that a criminal like the “Reverend” Sharpton is in a position to call for his ouster is a national disgrace. Sharpton should have been in prison years ago.
Has Jesse Jackson retired? I thought Chicago was his turf. Maybe the White Hut is behind this too.
FIRST!! I have NEVER agreed with the Socialist before!
Must not have been paying enough protection money.
Neutron bombs. Kill off the inhabitants but leave the buildings and infrastructure available for future repopulation.
