Although I have no memory of writing it, I certainly sounds like me so I’m sorry.

It’s all true baby. Grifters gotta grift.

What’s despicable is when the wealthy exploit the poor.

Are you OK with that?

I think Facebook is regurgitating tweets make to look some folks bad. Trump on the hand would have loved this tweet. His ratings would have gone even higher among his crowd.

“Even the NY Post” went after a Sharpton? Well, there’s a shocker…

Sorry to interrupt, but I’m guessing that you aren’t a Trump fan, right?

You got me there but everyone knows he’s a deadbeat.

I’m okay with the part where they call you despicable. Your insistence that Sharpton is a “grifter” seems stunningly without corroboration. Wait, let me guess – your next reference is Tawana Brawley.

So timely!

Can someone explain to me what this line means:

“meeting Rev. Sharpton, no joke – he will tell him that his daughter is N—-!”

I’m sorry, but this “sentence” makes absolutely no sense.

And since you’ve been privy to all the events heretofore mentioned, you have no problem denigrating the people you seem to know firsthand.

So, let’s now examine why you’re such an easily manipulated tool of the racist right wing. Well, the first logical presumption is that you harbor a lot of anger toward African Americans. You seem to feel no obligation to corroborate your insults directed at the Sharpton family. Indeed, you assume that Sharpton as grifter is common knowledge and requires no substantiation, which speaks volumes about your racial attitudes. Maybe the problem is yours and not Sharpton’s at all – have you considered that possibility?

A feature, not a bug.

Left unstated: even if he didn’t write the post, he let it stand on his account, presumably without comment.

The post itself sounds like the person writing it was drunk or otherwise chemically impaired, but, Bqhatevwr.

I’m sorry, but what is a “black agenda”?

As used by the poster, something that merits a flag.

“Because, after all, I’ve written SO many vile things over the last 8 years that it’s impossible to remember them all.”

Rather than watch you ‘paint’ some more, this is what I typed initially

Sorry to interrupt, but I’m guessing that you aren’t a Trump fan, right?

I could go a little further, but seeing how you like to mix a little more than the normal shades; I’m sure that you need a little more time to get that answer just right.

By the way, that Trump question is technically a yes or no question. However keep backing away from that previous answer shrug.

He’s citing the NY Post too.

Please forgive me, Rev. I never should have given David Duke my Facebook password.

"You seem to feel no obligation to corroborate your insults directed at the Sharpton family. Indeed, you assume that Sharpton as grifter is common knowledge and requires no substantiation, which speaks volumes about your racial attitudes. "

Substantiated it last week. Here’s a piece of it for you. Don’t know all the events firsthand as you say but lived and worked in the city during the Brawley Saga. And keep your “tool of the racist right wing” umbrage to yourself. It’s really silly.

Mr. Sharpton has regularly sidestepped the sorts of obligations most people see as inevitable, like taxes, rent and other bills. Records reviewed by The New York Times show more than $4.5 million in current state and federal tax liens against him and his for-profit businesses.

With the tax liability outstanding, Mr. Sharpton traveled first class and collected a sizable salary, the kind of practice by nonprofit groups that the United States Treasury’s inspector general for tax administration recently characterized as “abusive,” or “potentially criminal” if the failure to turn over or collect taxes is willful.

In 1990, he was acquitted of felony charges that he stole $250,000 from his youth group. Then in 1993 he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor for failing to file a state income tax return. Later, the authorities discovered that one of Mr. Sharpton’s for-profit companies, Raw Talent, which he used as a repository for money from speaking engagements, was also not paying taxes, a failure that continued for years.

In 1998, Mr. Sharpton lost a defamation suit brought by Mr. Pagones and was ordered to pay a judgment of $65,000.

Even though state law prohibits nonprofits from making loans to officers, Mr. Sharpton said National Action Network had also once lent him money to cover his daughters’ tuition.

In 2009, when the group still owed $1.1 million in overdue payroll taxes, Mr. Sharpton began collecting a salary of $250,000 from National Action Network. The recent Treasury report that called that sort of practice abusive also said only 1,200 organizations in the nation owed more than $100,000 in unpaid payroll taxes, which would put Mr. Sharpton’s group among the most delinquent nonprofit organizations in the nation.

Today, Mr. Sharpton still faces personal federal tax liens of more than $3 million, and state tax liens of $777,657, according to records. Raw Talent and Revals Communications owe another $717,329 on state and federal tax liens.

Correct, I’m not a Trump fan. Now it’s my turn:

Is it not despicable when the wealthy exploit the poor? Chammy couldn’t answer and I’ll wait for your response.
