Here’s To A Speedy Recovery


On the day before her birthday, Al Sharpton’s daughter got hit by a car outside of her father’s NY office building:

Dominique Sharpton was “hit by a car the day before yesterday while outside of National Action Network’s headquarters in Harlem while walking with two co-workers. A car pulled into the gas station at full speed and she was pinned to the car. Her father rushed home and she is on crutches with several stitches but she is fine and grateful for the outpouring of support from around the country.”

Damn, we hope this shyte wasn’t intentional. Well, regardless, we wish her a quick and full recovery.

Feds cancel probe into Rev Al Sharpton's finances!


"Federal prosecutors have dropped their criminal investigation involving the finances of Al Sharpton.

Sharpton said he’d learned a lesson: “I have learned that everybody is not necessarily out to get you. And, I hope [prosecutors] have learned that everybody who questions the system is not trying to beat the system.”

Authorities were looking for tax fraud and probing allegations that Sharpton had extorted donations to his National Action Network from corporate sponsors by threatening to boycott them and their products.

Sharpton said that “was a total fabrication. Some of the companies called me, outraged.”

According to the reports, since the criminal case has ended, it has been turned over to the IRS to pursue civilly. The IRS is still calculating what it believes the organization owes in taxes. “I make money, so I can pay,” Sharpton said.


Sharpton recently told the N.Y. Daily News that he was invited to appear on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, as well as Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice on NBC, but declined over the importance of the upcoming election. “This is a serious election. I don’t want to be dancing with the stars when I should be protecting the vote.” Concreteloop.com

Time For Al To Speak up


Fresh from the backlash of Don Imus’ most recent racist outburst, Permed-up Al has come out with a statement to rebuke Imus’ tired-ass hate speak.

Radio host Don Imus, who was fired from a previous show last year after making racist and sexist comments about the Rutgers women basketball team, is under fire again for another questionable comment Monday.

Charles Barkley does not want support from “Messy Jesse” or “Permed Up Al” (Gossip News)


Charles Barkley mentions that he does not want support from “Messy Jesse” or “Permed Up Al” when he runs for governor of Alabama:

“I don’t believe in them. They always play the race card, and you can’t always play the race card. Sometimes the race card is needed but not in every situation. We have to hold blacks more accountable for their actions.”

HOOPS legend Charles Barkley says he definitely plans to run for governor of Alabama, but wants no campaign help from rabble-rousers like Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson. "I don't believe in them. They always play the race card, and you can't always play the race card," the former Houston Rockets power forward tells next month's Playboy. "Sometimes the race card is needed but not in every situation. We have to hold blacks more accountable for their actions."
