Sharpton On Bill Clinton: "It's Time For Him To Just Be Quiet"

Al Sharpton told the ladies of "The View" today that he thinks it's time for President Clinton to stop injecting race into the presidential campaign.

"I think that it's time for him to just be quiet. I think it's time for him to stop. As one of the most outspoken people in America, there is a time to shut up. And I think that time has come."

Watch:

Reverend Al told the ladies of "The View" today that there comes a time for everyone to shut up, and that this is Bill Clinton's now. http://link.brightcove.com/services/link/bcpid1391584907http://www.brightcove.com/channel.jsp?channel=1178199204

Let me play the ANTI-AL for a minute here:

It's not time for Bill to shut up at all. Instead, he should double down: twice the mouth, twice the rough-n-tumble.

C'mon, Bill. The groudlings want to be entertained.

LOL - Yeah... cuz Al Sharpton is such a cogent, rational voice!

Shut the fuck up, Al. Talk about irrelevant!

No Al Sharpton, you are wrong.
It's time for everyone to tune out the so called "Liberal Media" and their baseless attacks against the Clintons.
And it's time for people like Sharpton to stop stop furthering the unsubstantiated lies the Clinton hating media is peddling against the Clintons.

The unspoken message in what Sharpton is spewing is an indirect command to Hilary to sit quietly in corner and be a good girl, you know the same way all men treat women who actually have something to say. They feel a woman should be seen, owned and not heard.

After being a member of a community falsely slandered by a racist bigot like Al Sharpton I can only say “It’s Time For To just Be Quiet” meaning Al Sharpton I am sick to death of this man who tells me I must be ashamed for not being Black and that some how I have less worth in life or in my opinions because I am not Black. I am also tired of his mouth, with all the racial bigotry this man has spewed over the years why is he still quoted as being relevant.

No Al Sharpton, it's time for YOU to grow-up and start acting like an mature adult American. You see, here in 'America', nobody takes kindly to ANYONE infringing upon 'American's' differing opinions in their legal 1st Amendement Rights in Free-Speech!!!

LMAO!

And we all thought Sharpton was supposed to be some kind of an advocate for civil-rights??? Or, ... is it that he is only an advocate for civil-rights when it comes to defending African Americans???

It is all too apparent to many that Sharpton's remarks are, 'change that we ALL 'don't' beLIEVe in!'

*The kool-aid drinkers of 'hype' will never be able to stomp out free-speech for their own selfish political gain!*

1. Temperature today in Green Bay..a balmy 92 degrees.

2. George Bush admits Iraq War a "huge" mistake.

3. 2012 Winter Olympics to be held in hell.

4. Monkeys have begun to fly out of my butt.

5. I agree with Rev. Sharpton.

I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer

Take a look at yourself, and then make a change"

People in glass house...

Al, it's you who should sit down and shut up, you civil rights ambulance chaser you, you ain't no king maker either. For the first time I just want to not to hear from you, and please, have some dignity about your fuzzy headed self, dang!

[mrcontinental]

Al telling someone to shutup...y­ou've got to be kidding.

[Pyfagorus]

If Sharpton is an Obama supporter, maybe he should instead be encouraging the hubby to keep talking. Seems like his comments are backfiring and whittling away at his old lady's support.

[RobertaInCT]

Where was Sharpton when all the fur was flying? Hiding is his hole waiting to see who came out on top.......

Bill should shut up, Sharpton should shut up and don't forget the Rev. Jessie.

SHUT UP!!!!

[eddieinc97]

When candidates, corporations, and Americans stop seeing race, we will no longer need Al Sharpton or Jessee Jackson.

These are people who still remember having to piss in the alley as a child because they couldn't use the "Whites Only" bathroom.

Stop deminishing their role. They speak for people who many times have no voice. Especially in our government.
