Al Sharpton in Trouble...Again

Slippery Al is under scrutiny again for alleged campaign contribution hanky-panky.

The FBI, as part of an ongoing criminal investigation into the Rev. Al Sharpton, secretly videotaped him pocketing campaign donations from two shady fund-raisers in a New York City hotel room and then asking for more, it was reported yesterday.

The Post confirmed the FBI investigation of Sharpton. The two dubious donors whom Sharpton met with in the hotel on May 9, 2003 — Democratic fund-raisers La-Van Hawkins and the late Ronald White — suggested that nearly $90,000 was missing from the official campaign report Sharpton filed with the FEC.

Anyone care to guess how long it will take before some high profile MSM dimwit classifies this renewed investigation as "racially motivated".

Update: Well, what do you know about that, the dimwit I was referring to turned out to be Al himself. NY Post headline: AL SMELLS RACISM.
