Asking Bill O'Reilly: Won't you please give Rev. Al the credit he deserves.....
Most often in disagreement with O'Reilly, once in a while agreeing--well I do think he loves the US just like most people--perhaps going about it in a different way.
Here is a chance for O'Reilly to give credit where it is due.....Bill won't you please acknowledge Reverend Al Sharpton at this time.
You always go on about being fair and balanced and this is your time to prove it.
Actually, Bill, you may not be in agreement and you are entitled to your opinion but here is your chance to be truly a giant in cable news--allowing others happiness and achievement--even when it is not what you would have chosen.
You go Bill, now on your truth, your no spin and your fair and balanced and prove your compassion for others.
Again, Bill, no one said you had to agree but showing respect for others will only make you more of a giant in your own field.
Thank you for your time......cl....the ronnie re

*(New York, NY) — Rev. Al Sharpton was honored on Sunday in New Orleans during the Essence Festival with the Icon Award.
Rev. Sharpton was surprised in front of a packed house at the Superdome in New Orleans with the award acknowledging his service as one of America’s greatest civil rights heroes.
The Icon Award was presented during a touching tribute to his work by three women whose lives he has impacted by bringing their stories to national attention. Kadiatou Diallo, mother of Amadou Diallo; Sybrina Fulton, mother of Trayvon Martin and Founder of the Trayvon Martin Foundation; and Nicole Paultre Bell, fiancée of Sean Bell and President and Founder of When It’s Real, It’s Forever Inc.; joined to thank him for his support. These women spoke to the audience about Rev. Sharpton’s tireless fight against injustice on behalf of their families, providing them hope and giving them a voice.
This was the 20th anniversary of Essence Festival and during the awards presentation Vanessa K. Bush, ESSENCE Editor-in-Chief and Michelle Ebanks, President of ESSENCE, reflected on his contributions to the magazine over the past two decades.
“Trayvon Martin. Sean Bell. Amadou Diallo. These men became our sons, our brothers and our husbands and he demanded the world to never forget,” said Vanessa K. Bush. “He fought for the mothers, sisters and wives who lost their men to senseless tragedy and he stood up and spoke out for them when there was no one else.”
