amazing, M9:

In March of 1983, Sharpton had been caught on a FBI surveillance video discussing a cocaine purchase with an undercover FBI agent posing as a Latin American businessman. Sharpton talked about making a buy, possibly as an agent for Daniel Pagano, a member of the Genovese crime family and a longtime friend of Sharpton. He subsequently became an informant for the FBI and Pagano was indicted on racketeering charges."

and this is one of the guy's who held the hatchet over Imus's head? I think the media and their overlords are heading for another Jonestown.

"Be afraid" adds, ONCE AGAIN, a new dimension. Damn.

p.s. on another note, re: Paul Wolfewicsz(sp? ) and his tenure as prez of the world bank. tell me about it: a guy who committed a silly, totally without discretion and brains and common sense, etc. etc. an act of mere stupidity BUT not illegality. The first prez in decades ferreting out, mercilesslely(sp?) ingrained and nod and wink corruption that has gone on since the WB's inception ( no wonder he was booed by the rank and file, today...they finally had something to pin on him, albeit,a feather compared to what they'd been doing for years ), and to my personal delight, poring tons of $$ into structually sound African projects. Another half way decent guy goes down.
