Al responded last night to rap-becile David Banner (real name Levell Crump), who while expressing his \"hatred\" for Sharpton earlier this week graciously invited Al to \"suck [his] d*ck,\" amongst other offers, on hip-hop newser &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.sohh.com/articles/article.php/12295\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;SOHH.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Through Kirsten John-Foy, one of the leaders of the Rev's National Action Network, he &lt;a href=\"http://www.sohh.com/articles/article.php/12314\" target=\"_blank\"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;roared back&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to the site, \"From time to time we do encounter people that have sexual fantasies about Reverend Al Sharpton, but they are always women and Crump's proposition is a first.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then, entering slightly murkier waters, John-Foy continued, \"I am sure Rev. Sharpton would not call Crump the \"N\" \"B\" or \"H\" word ... [but] despite Crump's personal request, I am sure Reverend Sharpton would not call him a f-g--t.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A rep for Rev. Al confirmed that John-Foy's response was in fact sent from his office, but added that Rev. Al would \"never\" respond directly to comments like Banner's."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
