At a small, exclusive New York City fundraiser Thursday night featuring the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, Obama compared himself and his agenda to that of Martin Luther King Jr.

And now that King has his own memorial on the Mall I think that we forget when he was alive there was nobody who was more vilified, nobody who was more controversial, nobody who was more despairing at times. There was a decade that followed the great successes of Birmingham and Selma in which he was just struggling, fighting the good fight, and scorned, and many folks angry. But what he understood, what kept him going, was that the arc of moral universe is long but it bends towards justice. But it doesn’t bend on its own. It bends because all of us are putting our hand on the arc and we are bending it in that direction. And it takes time. And it’s hard work. And there are frustrations.

Martin Luther King was attacked by cops, dogs, water hose characters and political baffoons. They were DEMOCRATS. They were Governors, Senators or other variations of the KKK whose terrible Democrat actions invented to limit the Negros's civil rights. MLK was fighting the Democrats and what they had brought upon this society. The four students in Mississippi were murdered by the KKK in '64. When we began to mend our ways MLK was the True American Hero. BTW Obummer MLK was a REPUBLICAN and would spit on you were he here today. MLK's murder by a card carrying Democrat KKK activist further proves my point.

MLK's achievements were stellar. He was smart and you're not!

You sir, are no Martin Luther King.....! =.=

[ken21]

mlk was a republican, not a communist.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

He was a Republican, as a token gesture to the party for ending slavery.

But there can be little doubt that MLK had communist sympathies.

Barack Hussein Obama is a delusional narcissistic FOOL!

Nothing more or less than that.

[SeekAndFind]

Obama has compared himself to many other people. Among them, FDR and even Ronald Reagan most recently. Now he wants to be like MLK !!

Methinks the man is having an IDENTITY CRISIS.

[tsowellfan]

Alan Keyes says Obama’s ancestors were involved in the slave trade.

Furthermore, Barack Hussein Obama does not share the same historic background as black America. Barack’s family IS in Africa. The black American ancestors were taken from Africa at the hands of Barack’s ancestors.

The only connection to Martin Luther King Jr. that Obama may have is that they owned MLK’s great-grandparents at some point.

Massa Obama

Barry needs to adopt the bumper sticker slogan, “We Shall Overspend” and then put it to music for his supporters to sing at their union campaign rallies when they are not busy fainting.

I can think of one person I knew who the Cretin-in-Chief could compare himself to.

Can’t remember his name, but I think he’s still in prison.

And if we had any semblance of a justice system, the Cretin would be his cell mate - and probably the mama.

[tsowellfan]

No wonder Obama’s a democrat. Lincoln must have downgraded Obama’s great-grand daddy’s income once the slave trade ended.

Now Obama’s downgrading us.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Which part, the black or the white?

MLK, a Republican who had the same views as most whites was absolutely attacked by ruthless leftist.

It’s the Republicans who have been trying for centuries to help the black man overcome the black ownership from the very people who acted then and still act to keep them in the welfare state.

[353FMG]

MLK was not a muslim.

Your wish is my command!

We shall overspend, we shall overspend,
We shall overspend today;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
We shall overspend today.

Obama will screw us through, Obama will screw us through,
Obama will screw us through today;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
Obama will screw us through today.

We’re on the road to hell, We’re on the road to hell,
We’re on the road to hell today;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
We’re on the road to hell today.

We’ll walk hat in hand, we’ll walk hat in hand,
We’ll walk hat in hand today;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
We’ll walk hat in hand today.

We are all afraid, we are all afraid,
We are all afraid today;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
We are all afraid today.

The GOP shall make us free, the GOP shall make us free,
The GOP shall make us free next year;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
The GOP shall make us free next year.

America shall return, America shall return,
America shall return in 2013;
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
America shall return in 2013.

Bernie Madoff?

He's a post turtle and now that it's obvious to all that he doesn't belong where he is Obama sees himself as a martyr .... his delusions of grandeur are ruining us!

[FrankR]

Obviously this crackpot wants to be anyone other than barry soetoro barack hussein obama...this attention starved waif needs to be impeached and placed in an insane asylum.

[hosepipe]

I think he’s Barry Half-White... croooning, “Baby I love your money”..

[AmusedBystander]

King wanted to be part of white America. Obama wants to destroy it. Big difference.
