SHE'S AN IDIOT, but I doubt she is the hateful type. That's the thing, most of the time, when people do really dumb things, they don't realize the breadth and depth of their folly until after it is done. Even then, they may never know just how much their stupidity affects the world outside of the their world.
How do you really, really feel, Mike? Come on, don't be shy.

yeah I guess I should calm down.
At the risk of sounding really racist or self-righteous, I just hate when Black people do things that are stupid on a national level. It makes all the rest of us look bad. It gives credence to the thoughts of those who would want to second guess the decency of all the other Blacks.
Just like when you hear a bad story of a new believer in an Apostolic church where "standards" become the "gospel" and they end up backsliding to become a worse demon than before.
I was listening to the Tom Joyner moring show on the way to work one morning. One of his guests made the comment when referring to the 9/11 perpetrators: "I was so glad that none of those guys were Black."
Then they both laughed a little bit in a relief that was mutually shared. I chuckled to myself to, sharing that same relief.

I've seen several black congressman criticizing Sharpton and Jesse Jackson for promoting racism, so I don't think you are alone in your feelings.
It's the same thing as Pentecostals having to be careful what we do and what we say - it reflects on every single Pentecostal.
Same with this woman - as you said - on the national level - not good overall.

I think a lot of people would be surprised to find out how many Black people recognize Sharpton and Jackson as jokes. It's just that they make for good TV and the networks know they can get a reaction by trotting them out.

I guess it is like that train wreck - you just want to watch it.

There have actually been times when a well-spoken, logical Black pastor has gotten on national news and given an intelligent, balanced opinion on a matter, when my first response was "Well, I guess we'll never see him on national news again". So far I have always been right.

Thomas Sowell is awesome. There is another black writer, who is also a pastor, on Townhall. I can't remember his name, but he always writes very intelligent articles. I'm too tired to think of his name.
Many black pastors have said that Sunday morning is the most segregated time of the week because whites go to their churches and blacks to theirs. However, the question has never been asked, "What role are black preachers playing in keeping the races from coming together on Sunday morning?"
It's apparent to most Americans that Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, the NAACP, members of the Congressional Black Caucus and the liberal elite wing of the Democratic Party are racist, but until the recent controversy surrounding Rev. Wright, black preachers have hidden their racism behind their pulpits.
I have interviewed and debated more than 400 preachers (mostly black) on my radio show, including members of Trinity United Church of Christ, and "Black Liberation Theology" experts like Professor Dwight Hopkins and others. I am all too familiar with the false theology of these racist black preachers.
Wright, Hopkins and their ilk attempt to use their pulpit, the Bible and God himself to hide the evil that lies within their hearts. They use the anger of black Americans to keep them demoralized, dependent and Democrat. Whenever black congregants hear these pastors blame whites for their own failings many rejoice because it takes away the responsibility of looking at themselves. These preachers derive power from the failure of their subjects.
