Wednesday on the "Tom Joyner Morning Show," Al Sharpton offered a curious explanation involving President Barack Obama for the meaning of Easter:
"I think that the message is, no matter what the world may do to unfairly, no matter how your crucified, nailed to the cross at home, or in your personal relationships, or on the job that you can rise if you don't lose yourself during the hard times and the challenges.
The story of Jesus on the cross. no matter what they humiliated him with. no matter how they mocked him he took it, because he knew he could rise. And the story of Easter and my message for this Easter session is no matter what unearned suffering you go through, that if you know you can rise above it, don't become like the diseases that you fight.
As I looked at President Obama at our convention last Friday where all he took he's been able to rise politically again.. I'm not comparing him to Jesus, but I am saying that to every crucifixion there is a resurrection for those who believe..."

Jesus was not a muzzie.
Al Sharpton is an idiot.
That’s the meaning of Easter? Spare me this brand of “preaching.”
The Rehv-ruund.
If this is what $harpton believes to be the true meaning of Easter, then the man is lost and needs prayer.
I musta missed something.
0bamao is only lauded in the press.
I’ve never seen the commie faerie taken to task for ANYTHING by the obsequious press.
LOL just LOL
Sharpton is an idiot.He’s also a lot of things much worse.
I am not sure whether he is more stupid or more ugly.
He needs some psych help, fast.
Obama is their human messiah. Trying to rally the 2012 Obama voters for another turnout.
Speaking of crucifixion Al, didn't Obama get elected twice, and elected on the basis of some huge whoppers?
What church has this moron ever pastored? Ever lead a congregation? Has he ever preached to gospel? Even I have an ordination from a church, should Al call me "Reverend"? He is no man of God.
That may be some of the most outrageous blasphemy I have ever seen! Christ did not endure the cross because He knew He would rise again. He endured it for the love of sinners like me who had no other way of reconciling with Him. And we wont even go near the comparison with Obama....
Wasn’t there a time when this would be considered blasphemy?
Al makes a Pimp look far more righteous than he himself has ever been.
But nobody put Obama in the position he’s in but himself. What has he accomplished? Our pre-eminence in world events is gone. Throwing money at the economy has failed and destroyed any fiscal sanity the government could hope to achieve. His social policies have deeply divided the country. All he has left to show for his time in office is a duct taped, bubble gum patched health care law that is sure to fail. The only resurrection is for him to get the hell out of office.
Yes, and there was a time when neither Obama nor Sharpton would have had a constituency that extended beyond a one-day buggy ride.
