Boy, is it ever!
The pompadoured pot-stirrer just couldn’t resist inserting himself into the Donald Sterling controversy. Because as we all know, the real racial healing can’t begin until Al Sharpton’s weighed in:
I applaud NBA Comm. Adam Silver for announcing Donald Sterling’s Lifetime Ban from the NBA and Financial Penalty http://t.co/9gQLXzg7ge

Just spoke w/ NBA comm. Adam Silver & he has agreed to meet w/civil rights leaders and me on where we go from here after his bold step today

Self-awareness was never his strong suit.
@TheRevAl are you going to discuss your "greek homos" statement?

Such a stand-up guy.
@TheRevAl When are you gonna pay up for all the hurt you've caused? How is Tawana Brawley?

@TheRevAl stay out of it! You're divisive & your reputation taints everything you're involved in.

He doesn’t. Which brings us to this appealing scenario:
Away? RT @TheRevAl:spoke w/ NBA comm. Adam Silver & he has agreed to meet w/civil rights leaders and me on where we go from here.

Sounds pretty good, right?

Now. Who does @TheRevAl have to offend to be banned for life from ever getting in front of a TV camera?
