Sharpton smacked down Buchanan on Hardball re; Limbaugh
When Pat whined about Rush being denied a job because of something he said, Sharpton shot him down by reminding him that conservatives insisted for almost a year that Obama shouldn't be president because of something HIS MINISTER said!

Buchanan had NO comeback to that.

Go, Rev!

3. Anyway people are denied jobs all the time because of stuff they said -
particularly if they say the wrong thing in a job interview. I can't think of anything that would shoot down a job prospect faster than saying something controversial about race.

11. Of course they are - but, as Rev pointed out, Limbaugh wasn't denied a job
He HAS a job and it is not in jeopardy. He was simply denied the chance to buy a sports team - and as Rev also pointed out, it was his PARTNERS who took him out of the running, not the NFL or any of his detractors.

4. Sharpton never fails to hit those hanging curve balls
And wingnuts never fail to throw them.

10. Rev Sharpton can be so
Sharp sometimes.

Anything to shut Pat up has got to be good..only the facts.

13. LOL! It was great!
Buchanan just stared into the camera - he didn't know WHAT to say.

It must have driven him crazy to get pwned by Sharpton.

16. WTG AL!
He did a good job. It makes me sick to see conservatives trying to make this piece of shit a victim. This wasn't some one time thing where he was caught making one racist comment and was being condemned for it. He has made a career out of being a racist, sexist and homophobic asshole. Finally it came back to bite him in the ass. His been getting away with this bull for so long now. I wanted to slap Pat for making Rush out to be some poor little victim whose lively hood is being destroyed. Chris seemed to agree with Pat on that too. That idiot makes millions of dollars spewing his hatred everyday. His doing WAYYYY better than most Americans...he'll live. His not going broke anytime soon.

I've seen him run over right wing pundits more than once, and well. He's done it to Coulter and Hannity. For those that missed the segment the video is below-
