” National NAACP leadership has alleged that Beck’s scheduling the rally for Aug. 28 at the Lincoln Memorial — the anniversary and location of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech — was a deliberate provocation. “
I didn’t realize that use of the Lincoln Memorial by any group other than the NAACP was provocative.
And what exactly is provocative about a rally
called “ Restoring Honor “ ?
Look at the list of idiots marching with Jesse Jackson in Detroit on the same day and tell me that nothing provocative will be said or done.
