Apparently wrestling fans aren't too keen on fighting ignorance and illiteracy, because as soon as Rev. Al Sharpton stepped into the ring at Monday Night Raw to promote his education reform tour ... all he heard was "Boooooooo!"
On a positive note, maybe they were all just chanting "Booooooks."

Reverend Al Sharpton is set to lay the smack down tonight on WWE Raw -- just don't expect to see him bodyslamming John Cena in the ring.
Yesterday in D.C., the preacher man with the best bouffant in the biz told us the only things he'll be fighting are "illiteracy" and "ignorance" as part of a national tour on education. No word on how "ignorance" looks in spandex.
We're told Sharpton was given a "nominal fee" for travel expenses -- but donated that moolah to the tour.

Reverend Al Sharpton is coming out swinging against Plaxico Burress' 2-year prison sentence -- claiming Plax's punishment is "way out of proportion with the crime."
The Rev just sent us the following statement:
"I think it is an unusually harsh sentence for someone who was his own victim. He should be punished but his sentence is way out of proportion with the crime.
Celebrities should not be given special treatment but they should not be given exceptional punishments either."

After Michael Jackson's burial last night at Forest Lawn, his famous friends and family members gathered at an Italian restaurant in Pasadena for one last hurrah ... with one star busting out a fedora and an MJ dance move for a quick Jacko tribute. 
After La Toya, Tito and Reverend Al Sharpton left the joint, it was MJ's old friend Corey Feldman who made the crowd go nuts by the valet stand. Sure, it was a little fame-whorish, but it was also kinda sweet...

Al Sharpton still respects his elders -- even the ones who call him a "professional racist." In fact, he blames Jackie Mason's age for the entire racially charged mess the comedian got himself into. 
Even though Mason chose to attack The Rev hours after calling Obama a "Schwartza" this weekend, Sharpton was cool at LAX, clasping his hands together and saying, "At this stage in Jackie's life, we should pray for him."
Amen.

Rev Al Sharpton sounds like he's a newly-minted fan of Paris Hilton, in large part because of her Presidential campaign vid. But here's the deal -- remember that whole "N" word thing with Paris? Did the Rev forgive, or just forget?
