At a Christmas dinner at his National Action Network headquarters in Harlem, the Rev. Al Sharpton spoke of "doing something big" with Cardinal Timothy Dolan next year to unite New York City in the wake of divisions over the NYPD.

"I talked with Cardinal Dolan yesterday, and after the first of the year we're talking about doing something big to bring the city together," Sharpton said to a packed audience of hundreds.

Just a suspicion, this organized base-stirring campaign has backfired badly in internal polls, and the organizers need a face saving way to back off now, so the lead guy, Sharpton, needs to do a switch to sweet reason and drain the bad feelings of the majority by bringing in the Archbishop, who few can object to.
Better luck next time guys.
This was all a planned PR exercise from almost the beginning of the Ferguson thing, thrown off its initial election purpose by the wise delay on the part of the DA’s (Democrats though they are, they at least are responsible men with regard to the public interest) and the Grand Juries. This seems to have been continued by the Democrat establishment (SEIU, etc) with Sharpton as figurehead, to keep the pot boiling till 11/2016, just to get the base turnout.

Sharpton is just trying to take the heat off his butt. All things Sharpton can be explained in terms of what Sharpton will gain personally.

By unity, Al means everyone bend over for the “underclass” thereby “achieving” “harmony”

Long term planning by the Democrat establishment, certainly. They are organized, they have a business to run after all.

Why certainly! We all know how concerned the Rev. Al Sharpton is at securing racial unity in NYC...NOT. Sharpton is a viper and not worthy of anyone’s trust. Sharpton is just trying to cover is substantially exposed backside in this mess. Of course, with Mayor Bill di Blasio stirring the pot, fat chance.

Al Sharpton is NOT a nice person. He does not have decent intentions..

Wherever Al goes... Mayhem Follows.

Sharpton needs to be doing 20 years for tax evasion, but Obama and Holder have made certain he will get a pass. Sharpton is safe from the IRS.

Sharpton has managed to dodge a lot of flak over the years, but sooner or later, his charmed life is going to smash into a concrete wall at full speed.

One thing that puzzles me is Al’s appearance. He looks as if he has some kind of serious disease. If that is true, nature might just give him the ultimate sentence. This is a sentence that no judge or jury can alter.

One of the biggest problems evidently is continuing to legitimize Al Sharpton.

Stay away from New York, you bastard. You're no more welcome in New York than you'll be welcome in heaven.

Al “Tawana Brawley” Sharpton is a media creation prodiced to generate conflict for sensationalist 24-hour news cycles; Dolan is an insignificant nothing in way over his head. Wasn’t he the tool that invited Barack Hussein Obama to the Al Smith dinner?

This man should shut the hell up and go away. But we all know that’s not going to happen.

Sharpton has never met Unity. Division and Strife are his handmaidens, but Unity is not among his circle of acquaintances.

Sharpton has a built in aversion to unity.

Unity is not my frend. Much!
