NEW YORK -- Fire tore through the headquarters of the Rev. Al Sharpton on Wednesday, gutting a reception hall one day after he formally became a Democratic presidential contender in 2004.
The fire was reported at about 8:30 a.m. at 1941 Madison Ave. in Sharpton's National Action Network offices on the second floor of the three-story building in Harlem. It was extinguished by 10 a.m.
Fire officials said the reception hall where Sharpton holds weekly rallies and news conferences was gutted. A separate office that houses financial records was mostly unharmed, they said.
The fire also spread to the third floor, occupied by the Israeli Church of UPK. A 23-year-old man hanging from a third-floor window was pulled to safety by firefighters and taken to Harlem Hospital for treatment of smoke inhalation.

Yes, he announced yesterday and he also asked for the same pass from leftwing media that they give to Hillary and Uncle Teddy.
I can hardly wait to hear your theories on how this building caught on fire. http://gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin5.gif
Was it insured? http://gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif
