Who saw Rev. Al Sharpton today?

He ran circles around Mica. He turned his word against him.

Some may say he owed the congressman more "respect". Well, I don't think so.

When I see congress disrespect the American people I want to see reporters ask serious hard questions.

He was really angry with the stupid talking points that Mica was spouting. Rev Al and Martin Bashir are both fearless and ask the questions and make the comments we all would like to make and ask if we could. Why should we give any respect to congress critters who disrespect the President and the American people? Mica was a blithering idiot today and I could see the fire coming out of Rev Al's eyes and smoke coming from his ears. Go Rev!!!

I just wish this would happen on one of the Sunday morning shows aired on broadcast tv and not on a cable channel.

I kick their a**. Some congressmen/women have disrespected the POTUS for the four years he's been the president. Screw them. Ugh.

Mica was trying to control and end the discussion, Al just kept at him and really held onto the power. Respecting crap from these crazies only furthers their idiocy.

My Current Take on F&F is that the ATF has some information in that huge stack of documents that leads to some very damning evidence against someone important in the NRA. That is why attack dog Issa wants them.
