Speaking at the 40th annual MLK commemorative service at Ebenezer Baptist Church, Franklin said the country is on the "cusp of turning the impossible into reality. Yes this is reality, not fantasy or fairy tales."

Clinton, in supporting his wife Hillary's bid for the Democratic nomination, recently took heat for using the term "fairy tale" to describe Obama's depiction of his stance on the war.

Notice how the DBM always takes pains to correct the misquote involving "fairy tales". Clinton may have been talking about Obama's war stance when he used the phrase, but blacks everywhere took it to mean Obama's candidacy itself.

And now, every chance they get, the DBM tries to correct that "misunderstanding".

Notice that they never try to correct misunderstandings that arise when OTHER politicians (especially conservatives) are misquoted. Only when it happens to Queen Hildebeast, or her Crooked One hubby, do they suddenly become such amazing sticklers for accuracy. Amazing.

IMO, Bill Clinton’s “fairy tale” phrase was in intentional double-entendre.
