Rev. Al Sharpton’s Pants On Fire

Sharpton Attempts to Marginalize Tea Party Movement

Last night, Rev. Al Sharpton lied.

On a segment with Bill O’Reilly, Rev. Sharpton said “I saw the tape” referring to video of some tea party attendees yelling racial slurs at Black members of Congress.

That’s right. The “Reverend” lied.

Alfred Charles "Al" Sharpton, Jr. (born October 3, 1954) is an American Baptist minister, civil rights activist, and radio talk show host. In fact, he is a reckless demagogue.

Some would say publicity is Sharpton’s middle name. I assert is it “liar”.

His dark side hasn’t appeared to hamper his ability to serve as a liberal pundit on television. http://www.realchange.org/sharpton.htm

Should he really be able to go on television and throw out a claim that he had seen a video of racial slurs being yelled by tea party goers?

This is a serious charge, and O’Reilly “corrected” him saying there was no video. Bill should have challenged him “show me the tape” before you say another word.

Why do these liberal leaders get away with carelessly/maliciously lying?

I have been to tea parties in Washington, D.C., and throughout Texas – Austin, College Station, Bryan, Odessa, Tyler, Houston and more. Never have I seen any race issues raised.

Yet Sharpton – allowed to continue on O’Reilly’s show – later claimed that the term “our America” doesn’t include Blacks. When any tea party sign or speech includes the term “our America” it is racially motivated? Give me a break. It’s your America if you embrace it, Sharpton.

This is simply the Left attempting to marginalize and demonize the tea party movement.

The tea party movement IS America. We are Americans who are willing to champion our Constitution and hold our elected officials’ feet to the fire.

And the Left is so threatened by this they will lie. Shame on Al “Liar” Sharpton and shame on those in the media who give him a voice. That includes Bill O’Reilly.
