walkitoutI see him often on Countdown and TRMS, but when I stumbled across the Eddie Long scandal, I was curious what Robinson would say in his column.

Really. It won't take long.
"But meanwhile, African American preachers and worshipers across the nation are watching -- and, one hopes, learning...Nothing he [Long] learns about himself can negate all the good works he has done in his ministry -- all the people whose lives he has changed with a message of faith and hope. Maybe he could forgive himself. Then maybe he could forgive all the gays and lesbians he so coldly condemns."
Wouldn't it be great if all that actually happened?
