Opinion: Al Sharpton Needs To Get A Real Job

From Gina Miller, Dakota Voice:

Al Sharpton really should get a job—I mean a real job.  Does America honestly have a need for more race-baiting troublemakers to go around telling lies about people with whom they disagree politically?  Having ideological differences is one thing; telling outright lies about your opponents is another.  Lying is the number one tactic of the left, and Sharpton did not flinch on Monday evening when he appeared on Ed Schultz’ MSNBC show and vomited a whole stream of lies about Rush Limbaugh.

The only radio talker I listen to almost as much as I listen to Michael Savage is Rush Limbaugh, so I can speak with a good deal of knowledge about what Rush says and doesn’t say on the air.  Rush is a truth-teller, and that’s what drives the left more insane than they already are.  For many years, the left has been looking desperately for something—anything—they can use to get Rush taken off the air.  Now Al Sharpton is going to try to strong-arm the FCC into denying licenses to stations that carry Rush.

Let’s take a look at Sharpton’s reasoning as presented on Schultz’ show.  Sharpton jumps out of the gate with these gems:
Here’s a man who calls the president names, plays a record calling him the ‘good negro,’ that has the former majority whip, or soon to be former majority whip, Jim Clyburn, as driving Miss Nancy, trying to play off Driving Miss Daisy.  Rush Limbaugh has the right to say whatever he wants to say; he does not have the right to do it, though, on publicly regulated airwaves.”

“We have a series of meetings going on, and we’re going to see the FCC next week.  We’re not going to stand by and allow publicly regulated radio and television just go for marketing and promoting this kind of racism.
