haVoc 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2005 NEW YORK(AP) He's been a minister, an activist and a presidential candidate. Now Al Sharpton wants to be a sitcom star. Sharpton told the Daily News in Saturday's editions that he is working with CBS on a pilot, tentatively named, "Al in the Family." "It's about conflicting social and political views," Sharpton said. "There'll also be a social message." The Democrat, who has also run for mayor of New York and the U.S. Senate, said one possible episode would have one of his TV children becoming a Republican. "I don't know if I am a good actor or not, but I will be playing myself and I have been practicing that for 51 years," he said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2005 The Pilot ought to be ol Poo-Face trying to join this white family (or, better yet, a Jewish family that has a small business) and when they refuse he buses in his rent-a-mob and accuses the father of raping a 10-year old black girl. Then when the mob burns down the family's house, Poo-face can admit the whole thing was a hoax. Hilarity will then ensue. I don't know what's more appalling -- this piece of shit himself, or the media outlets that give him these opportunites... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
