I am told today that a lefty clergyman said that this intersection is the work of God (I feel sick)

Back in 1994 MLK day was held on Jan 17th. That was the day of the Northridge earthquake. I thought the Lord might have been showing his displeasure at the time.

I couldn’t care less. I certainly won’t be watching any of it. As far as I’m concerned I won’t have a president for another four years.

What you said. There are days I don't feel like I have a country any more, given there are so many brain dead fools running around in it.

The media wants to make this to be some rare celestial event, a planetary occlusion where Uranus eclipses itself.

“Back in 1994 MLK day was held on Jan 17th. That was the day of the Northridge earthquake. I thought the Lord might have been showing his displeasure at the time.”

Yeah, whenever one thinks of MLK, the first thing that comes to mind is Northridge, the earthquake, traffic on the 405 and the goofy CSUN sign.

Well, the country's anus is certainly eclipsing itself, that's for sure.

Neither day has any significance to me

Obama is a product of what King promoted

Despite his BS koolaid whitey lapped up

Now dumb white libs drink the same crap lisped to their ears via Obama

Seems quite racist to me to label him ‘black’, therefore, ignoring his mother was white...has he got a problem with that....why not admit to being BI-RACIAL?

Tis a combination of Elvis and the Twilight Zone without Jesse Jackson. Wait. Frank Zappa did it better.

Remember that whenever DNA is being smeared around Jesse is there. The great counselor at the White House with his girl friend—Jesse was the original “Rhymin’ Man”.

“You been cheatin”

It briefly quotes several musical themes, including: The Twilight Zone Theme (Constant), Marche Funèbre (Frédéric Chopin), Mission: Impossible (Schifrin), The Untouchables (Riddle), Mississippi Mud (Cavanaugh/Barris), Happy Days Are Here Again (Yellen/Ager), Entrance of the Gladiators (Fucik), Havah Nagilah (trad.), Hail To The Chief (Sanderson/Scott), La Cucaracha (trad.), Frère Jacques (trad.), My Sharona (Fieger/Averre) and Hallelujah I’m A Bum (McClintock)]

The vocalist singing sounds like Johnny Cash—strange it is.

Shouldn’t that title read:

“The Coronation of First Black King...”

If I had a Black Armband, I would wear it to work tomorrow.

Not to mourn MLK, but to mourn the second coming of Pharaoh Obama, the Dictator In Chief. Four more years of Hell on Earth, what a wonderful cause for celebration.

The only good thing about tomorrow (Monday) will be Mark Steyn filling in for Rush. He is always entertaining and makes me laugh out loud when doing his monologue.

I happened to be somewhere yesterday morning where I could not escape the TV which had CNN playing their Kabuki. The network bigwigs were there all sitting out on the grass or somewhere that overlooked large empty fields, where they kept remarking about the millions that were there 4 years ago, AND that they expected over 600 that day around noon.....

I don’t know about any of you, but I never saw any pictures or TV shots of throngs of Inaugural Adorers...I just saw clips of the a$$hat Biden getting sworn in again. I didn’t even bother the the Kenyan’s ritual.
