Al Sharpton: My Tax problems are because of racism! ...And Trayvon! ...And Ferguson!

It will come as little surprise that Al Sharpton is the victim of racism. Given that his entire life's work involves race-baiting, ginned-up controversy, and portraying everyone as either the perpetrator or victim of some sort of race-based malevolence, it was probably just his turn. Sure, it's sad that things operate this way, but this is the reality of the horrible country in which we live.

The IRS is attacking this moral paragon, this avatar of virtue - this saintly social worker - as some kind of criminal. ...And according to Sharpton himself, it's all related to the fact that Barack Obama is President and "some people" don't like it. During a press conference, he was asked why the New York Times would run such a story about such a wonderful man. Sharpton replied:

"I think it's political."

Of course, he's right. The New York Times simply despises left-wing "activists" and MSNBC hosts. Their anti-Democrat bias is legendary. Not only that, but Sharpton is also unafraid to call out their continuous, glaring, racial prejudice.

"A lot of people don't like the fact that President Obama's the president. A lot of people do not like the fact that Bill de Blasio won for mayor. And they certainly don't like that I'm still here, and I ain't going nowhere."

Once again, we see that there are monsters in our culture who just can't accept the fact that Barack Obama is President, and they've decided to take their hateful rage out on poor little Al. Certainly it's nothing new. Sharpton later made it clear that investigating his taxes is the direct result of racial strife - wherever and whenever it may occur. Every time a story about race makes headlines, the racists start digging into his returns.

"Every time there's a Sean Bell or a Ferguson or a Trayvon Martin, we go through my taxes. It's the same agreement, y'all."

Please, America. It's 2014. It's time to leave your bigotry in the past. Stop denigrating this fine, upstanding, citizen by demanding that he pay the millions in taxes that he accuses people like Mitt Romney of not paying. Sigornoy Weaver and Rush Lumbard could not be reached for comment....
