Al Sharpton may have "clarified" his bizarre and seemingly bigoted comments about Mormonism from the other night. But a statement today from his office seems aimed at picking a fight with the Mormon faith over its checkered history as relates to race:

"Even though I didn't bring this up, maybe one should ask Mr. Romney whether these were the articles of faith of his church to preach segregation and whether he was a member of the church at that time. Maybe in his spokespeople's effort to overreach our discussion they have raised an issue that I am prepared to discuss."
