Because today is his day. I remember the man.
His Best Speech, I felt:
Part 1:
Part 2:
It is without argument; except from some mentally and morally depraved few among the white race — that Martin Luther King Jr. was in fact, the standard bearer of Christian way of fighting racial injustice in America. Martin Luther King Jr. was, in fact, a registered Republican and felt that the progressive black’s slogan of “fight the power” was, in fact. morally wrong. So much so, that Malcolm X said this about Martin Luther King Jr.:
To which Martin Luther King Jr. said back:
You see, some people within the Republican Party and within White Conservative circles do not understand the differences here. Well, I happen to be one of the white people who totally understand the difference. Martin Luther King Jr. was a Conservative Christian, who was, in fact, trying to fight racial oppression by Christian means. Malcolm X was not.
But, now that is all history, MLK was killed, as was Malcolm X was as well. But, I have to wonder, what would Martin Luther King Jr. think of the following, which was compiled by Michelle Malkin:
Harry Reid openly sneered at Hispanic Republicans;
Harry Reid, Jesse Jackson & Company likened Obamacare critics to white supremacists and slave owners;
Journolist members conspired to paint Jeremiah Wright’s critics as racists;
MSNBC attacked conservatives who bought Sarah Palin’s book as paranoid white Tea Partiers;
Former House Democratic whip James Clyburn played the race card over earmarks;
The FCC played the race card to expand its regulatory powers over the Internet;
Liberal minority mobsters played ethnicity police against GOP Florida Sen. Marco Rubio;
DREAM Act radicals bitterly accused opponents of xenophobia and race traitorism;
Progressives led the race-card attacks on the Tea Party from day one;
An NPR commentator cheered the fact that Tucson massacre suspect Jared Loughner was a “gringo;”
And the NAACP has morphed into the National Association for the Advancement of Coddled People.
I often have to wonder, just what would Martin Luther King Jr. think of the progressives who have claimed his mantle?
It is to truly wonder.
