MSNBC must have had a slow day in the editing department, or Al saw a story about someone’s civil rights being trampled. Dear Al just loves making things worse for himself and civil rights by exploiting people to keep his hatred going.
what al is saying he hopes people vote democrat. he doesnt care about the people in CT.
Ah….the disgraced Rev Al comes to Connecticut to lecture the citizens on the evils of Romney and the virtues of Obama……whatever happened to Tawana Brawley ,Al…..how about lecturing the citizens on easy ways to disgrace oneself….something you know full well.
