“The Washington Post story revealing that Texas Governor Rick Perry hunted and hosted lawmakers at a hunting camp called Niggerhead is alarming and displays a new height in racial insensitivity in national politics. Mr. Perry should immediately fully explain how he could have gone to a ranch and hunted that is named after such an obvious racist term or he should withdrawl from the race. He is either blindly insensitive or hopelessly unaware of where he spends his time. Either way it makes one wonder if he is ready for prime time and certainly whether he is ready for the White House. – Reverend Al Sharpton, President National Action Network”

A lot of folks here sure are trying their hardest to hand obama a second term.
It’s a good night for sea salt & black pepper pretzel pieces - I can tall you That!
Too easy. "I was a Democrat"
AL would be OK if it were called “Hymietown.” Then he and Jesse could go hunting there.
Huh. If so, it would still have been a form of broad humor. It was right to abandon the name, because of its pejorative connotation dating to antebellum times. Now if we could persuade modern black people to quit calling themselves niggers... good grief, even a shallow self esteem based philosophy can see a big problem with that.
Cain has been revealed as a race baiter.
Cain just sank his campaign.
Let’s see the video of Hussein celebrating the Palestinian hater of Jews...the L.A. Times is holding the video and will not release it.
Hey, is Al Sharpton calling for the divestment of all monies earned by rappers who call women ho’s and use the “n” word in their lyrics?
This is like the “macaca” witch hunt crap.
So Rick Perry went HUNTING at a place that has a name that offends Al Sharpton. Gimme a break.
And I’m not boosting Rick Perry here—just appalled that we’ll go BEAT UP someone who HUNTED somewhere. Good God.
Hussein is a post turtle and we’re letting the LEFT make an issue out of WHERE SOMEONE WENT HUNTING?????
Hey, does anyone own property in ARKANSAS? Bill Clinton has his LIBRARY THERE! HAVE YOU SEEN THE ARKANSAS FLAG? MY GOD, IT IS JUST LIKE THE CONFEDERATE FLAG! I THINK BILL CLINTON IS A DAMN RACIST, FOR HIM TO PUT HIS TIME AND EFFORT IN A PLACE THAT FLIES SUCH A RACIST FLAG!!!
That's "One"....
Wouldn't vote for Cain...T R U S T
And when someone says they will change "Hail to the Chief"...because tradition has to go....I say....And who the hell do you think you are???
Perry must really worry them, maybe he’s not such a rino after all. he should tell the rev al to pound sand, we need a strong leader not someone who kowtows to race pimps over some BS perceived slight.
There was a black man years ago who worked at a sawmill on a brook in Northern Maine. He was very respected by fellow-workers who were Irish. Out of respect for their friend, the Irish named the stream Nigger Brook. After Kennedy was elected, the state officials were told they could not have Nigger Brook on the state map. So, they renamed it Negro Brook. That lasted about a year. Couldn’t call it that either. Now it is called Pelletier Brook. So much for the true history of our country.
Cain doubtless can redeem the situation with an apology. He has the dignity to make it credible rather than groveling.
This is fine, considering how Al $$$harpton demanded Robert “KKK” Byrd’s resignation from the senate after he used the forbidden word twice on Fox News. /s
The hunting camp was named Niggerhead???? That’s not how this story started out.
Agree with you.
I have a word for you Al-
MURDERER
You are a cold blooded killer. Scum.
Al looks like a sick weasel.
This doesn’t change my support for Herman Cain.
I think his campaign is stronger than ever and growing in numbers.
Screw Sharpton and his ilk, like we're ever going to get them on our side anyway.
Cain simply said it was intensive....and then went on.
Amanbyotch was doing nothing but trying to cause him to trip up and he just glossed over it.
Cain is the most conservative, most well qualified candidate we have yet the derision against him here is palatable.
Go figure.
