Republicans funding an Al Sharpton event? Has Michael Steele lost his mind?
NLRP reported:
The annual conference of Al Sharpton’s National Action Network (NAN) runs today through Saturday in New York City. According to the official program, the “Republican National Convention” is among the 45 sponsors of the event that serves as Sharpton’s biggest fundraising event of the year....
If the RNC is now a donor to Sharpton’s group, it is another blow to RNC donors, already reeling from the lesbian bondage club episode. It would also mean that RNC Chairman Michael Steele’s staff has been less than forthcoming with me about the RNC’s actual involvement. ....
I can see where it might be beneficial for Steele to speak and spread the GOP message, but donating money to them is totally unacceptable.
