From one of the lefts leaders.

On Friday's PoliticsNation, MSNBC host Al Sharpton complained that the "Tea Party-fueled madness" of the GOP threatening to shut down the government would "take away health care from millions of people."

He went on to charge that Speaker John Boehner possesses "genuine political cowardice" because he is allowing the Tea Party to "run this country into the ground."

Sharpton began the show:

Tonight's lead, Republicans leap into the abyss. And they're trying to take the country down with them. Americans have had enough. And so has the President. Today President Obama ripped House Republicans for their reckless vote to shut down the government. If the health care law isn't defunded, they're (INAUDIBLE) to shut it down.

After a few clips of President Obama which ended with him asserting that an unidentified Republican Senator had called shutting down the government "the dumbest idea I've ever heard," the MSNBC host continued:

Yes. It's a dumb idea and a sick one. More Tea Party-fueled madness that would take away health care from millions of people. So congratulations, House Republicans. You just voted to take away coverage for people with pre-existing conditions.

Sharpton mocked Speaker Boehner as he concluded: "And a special shout out to you, Speaker Boehner. It takes genuine political cowardice to let the Tea Party run this country into the ground."

Have you ever heard obama say anything about sharpton? Has he ever disagreed with anything sharpton has said?

MSNBC is pathetic.

This is where and from whom the lefties get their "news". I can't imagine anybody would listen to that racist hate monger and agree with him. That's progress for you.
