Al Sharpton Campaigning On Religious Channel
The Word Network ^ | 2/1/2003 | TommyDale

Posted on 02/01/2003 1:41:40 PM PST by TommyDale

"Reverend" Al Sharpton is on The Word Network in full campaign mode, giving a most political, anti-Bush speech in a church. This church should be penalized by the IRS for allowing it, and the network should be penalized for not identifying the progam as POLITICAL, rather than "religious". I am outraged, and I would hope some of us can write letters to the FCC and others.

If something happened to my Pastor and we had to find a new one, the Pulpit Committee wouldn't let Sharpton past the parking lot.

What is the Word Network? Radio? TV? For-profit, or non-profit?

I missed that official news, thanks. I wonder if he was on this channel asking for their votes/telling them how to vote, or just whining about the President and his policies.

Black and Liberal churches are allowed to campaign.

Conservative churches are not.

The problem with the Democreeps is that they use the church in every election cycle and always get away with it. The media ignores this.

I know, I know. Problem here is that is someone from the right (say, Pat Buchanan or Alan Keyes) went on this program and bashed the president, the media would ignore them too.

I will be changing my voter registration to Democrat in 2004. My state does not have open primaries so you have to be registered in the party. I will vote for Al Sharpton in the Democraptic primary.

Imagine Al at least getting enough votes to land a prime-time national TV (all the liberal networks) speaking spot on Friday night at the Demomaniacs National Convention. Can it get any better?

I’m sending a couple bucks to his campaign, I’m voting for him, and I hope to plant a yard sign out by the road. Think of it … lapel buttons, tracts for windshields in the parking lot, posters, etc.. Heck, maybe I could be his county coordinator.

This is going to be fun! The ultimate Freep. Will you join me?

Is Al saying that the tax cut will impede NASA's budget like Dan Blather did?
