Race-hustler to the rescue!

The original Reverend of Hate.

Three stooges on a global warming crusade.

“Reverend, it’s good to see you.”

Race-hustler. Head-hunter. Circus master.

Pity the fools.

Knock, knock. Who’s there?

Update 12:45pm Eastern. “Thousands” are marching, according to WaPo.

I told you last week about the Al Sharpton demagogue-a-thon hitting Washington this morning. They’re marching around the Department of Justice to protest hate crimes. My syndicated column earlier this week elaborated on the politics of racial insult:
The ululations of the aggrieved ebb and flow like [...]

Poison.

***1245pm Eastern update: Laura Ingraham has phoned the Verizon exec I mentioned below, John Harrobin, to come on her show to discuss Akon…apparently, he took a half-day off today and won’t be back until next Wednesday…stay tuned and keep up the pressure for accountability…***

Calling Verizon Wireless exec John Harrobin…anyone home?

Check this out. Rapper/singer/whatever Akon is [...]

Oh, snap

My syndicated column this week:
In 1992, Bill Clinton hit a political home run with his “Sister Souljah” moment. In 2007, Hillary Clinton suffered a reverse “Sister Souljah” strikeout. If it’s not the end of her presidential aspirations, it should be.
Allow me to explain. Fifteen years ago, then-Gov. Clinton was looking to solidify his [...]

Last night, I blogged about Hillary talkin’ like a homegirl at Al Sharpton’s demagogue-a-thon.
More at HA, where see-dubya quips:
MEMO TO HILLARY: When your name is “Clinton”, and you attack the ethics of the Bush administration…
DO NOT MENTION THE OVAL OFFICE CARPET.
Er, yeah.
Ick.

Pagones v. Maddux, Mason and Sharpton - Tawana Brawley Grand Jury Report

The NYPost reports: “Former Mayor Ed Koch surprised an almost exclusively black audience yesterday by telling the Rev. Al Sharpton he had spoiled his chance to become “a crossover leader” by refusing to apologize for “the Tawana Brawley hoax.” Sharpton, for once, reportedly had nothing to say in response. If there’s video of this, let [...]

I noted yesterday that the Dems were flocking to Al Sharpton’s annual demagogue-a-thon this week. The photo above comes via the Boston Globe with the following caption:
Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards shakes hands with Rev. Al Sharpton after speaking during the ‘Keepers of the Dream Awards Dinner’ Wednesday, April 18, 2007 during the 9th annual [...]

Last week, I noted how willing media have propped up race hustler Al Sharpton. There’s one other powerful institution that continues to serve as a Sharpton enabler: the Democrat Party.
Every major presidential candidate is scheduled to pay homage at Sharpton’s annual National Action Network convention this week–beginning with John Edwards and climaxing with Barack Obama:
Civil [...]

Video from last night’s show here.
I think I was about to hurl when Geraldo called Al Sharpton a “great man” and one of the nation’s top “civil rights” leaders. You can hear me mutter “whose civil rights?” Certainly not the rights of innocent prosecutor Steve Pagones, who was truly scarred for life by the lying, [...]

I’ll be guest-hosting on The O’Reilly Factor tonight and tomorrow night. Tonight, we’ll be talking Imus, Sharpton, Snoop Dogg, Duke, illegal alien sanctuary challenges, and more. See ya in the No-Spin Zone.

My syndicated column this week: THE CULTURE OF “BITCHES, NIGGAS, AND HOS”
Let’s stipulate: I have no love for Don Imus, Al Sharpton, or Jesse Jackson. I repeat: A pox on all their race-baiting houses.
Let’s also stipulate: The Rutgers women’s basketball team didn’t deserve to be disrespected as “nappy-headed hos.” No woman deserves that. I agree [...]

Washington Post goes A1 this morning with a story about a possible Michael Bloomberg presidential candidacy: Gag.
Aren’t there enough pro-abortion, anti-gun, open borders candidates running for president?
Endorsed by Al Sharpton. Faaabulous:
“He would be a very compelling candidate,” said civil rights activist Al Sharpton, himself a once and potentially future presidential hopeful from the Big Apple, [...]

With so much breaking news in the Middle East, I’ve been neglecting politics on the homefront. So, here are a few links and asides on a few noteworthy campaign developments on both sides of the aisle:
The netroots/nutroots are putting their proverbial eggs in the Ned Lamont basket. They are pulling out all the [...]

Only in America.
The power outages have provided fuel for race-card king Al Sharpton, who’s reportedly rushing down to St. Louis to pound his demagog-o-bongo drums.
St. Louis blogger Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit brings you the latest on the blackout (how long will it be before Sharpton starts protesting the word “blackout” as racist) and wonders [...]

From the anti-war demonstration in NYC today, a few reminders of just how batty some of our fellow Americans are (hat tip: Lawhawk):

Which doesn’t exactly jibe with this sign:

Finally, the stars of the show: Jackson, Sheehan, Sharpton, and Sarandon.

The 16th minute stretches on.

Two correspondents who attended the New York anti-immigration enforcement demonstration have sent reports.
MacLachlan snapped photos posted over at his Flickr page and sends these comments:

#1,28 - Crying out, “Bandidos para todos los paises” This is the chief reason for the number of flags at the protest
#3 - School Bus; don’t know if it was picking [...]

Remember how much media attention those racist white nationalist teen singers received last fall? (Indeed, they’re still getting press. Here they are in the most recent issue of GQ.)
Well, here’s a little experiment with race, double standards, labeling, and MSM bias.
My column today is about Autum Ashante, a 7-year-old racist black nationalist poetry “prodigy.”

Autum, of [...]

What the anti-Bush brigade will be doing in San Francisco tonight before the State of the Union address: (via SFChron):
San Francisco police will close several streets around Union Square this evening for a demonstration by activists protesting President Bush’s policies, city officials said today.
The protest by the World Can’t Wait coalition is scheduled to begin [...]

Yesterday, I mentioned the Washington Post’s smelly little article on an unpublished study purporting to associate conservative support for President Bush with bias against blacks.
Newsbusters’ Tim Graham noted that the reporter who penned the piece had also mentioned the same researchers and the same study in a Washington Post magazine piece (titled, ironically enough, [...]
