Where was Sharpton's Fat@ass when 800,000 people in Rwanda were murdered under Clinton's Watch? Fat@ss sellout needs to be thrown on the scrap heap just like Jesse Jackson and Julian Bond.

Good point.

"Black Americans should help U.S. officials decide whether or not to send peacekeeping troops to Liberia, Democratic presidential candidate Al Sharpton said"

Why not ALL Americans?

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

How about this, we promise to send troops if they promise NEVER to let Sharpton and the rest of them ever leave Liberia

Then Sharpton should go to Liberia to ask Taylor to step down.

If he is trying to look Presidential, why doesn't he condemn Mbeki and Mugabe at the same time?

Well, gosh

If Al thinks it's such a great idea, then why isn't HE going over to Liberia to help out?

Lead by example and all of that!

Of course, Rev. Sharpton might be one of those people who doesn't want to risk catching a bullet himself, but is all gung-ho for OTHER people to stick their necks out!

A telling line:

Sharpton said he wouldn't choose sides in the conflict

Then who the heck does he want us to stop? No, no, don't pick sides, then you might have to take a STAND for something and not be able to flip flop so easy.

What will happen when American Jews demand that we send troops into Gaza, or when Chinese Americans demand that we send troops to Taiwan, or when Arab Americans demand that we withdraw troops from the Middle East, or when XXXXXXX-Americans demand that we send/withdraw troops from XXXXXXX?

BUT Rev. AL?!

Haven't you said that we shouldn't be in Iraq and complain that the US wants to pay for Iraqi job and schooling, that was wrong inn Al's eyes.

But send as many troop to Liberia regardless of the cost.

NO politics here.

Maybe Rev. Al thinks if he whines enough, somebody will set him up with his own African nation: Tawana

Liberia is a no-win situation for the US... Al needs to get with Jesse and round up some interested civilians and go merc.

Al Sharpton 1995: We will not stand by ...and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.

There you go, let Sharpton be president of Liberia.
