You and me both but Martin sure has hisself some cheerleaders here
“You and me both but Martin sure has hisself some cheerleaders here”
I’m sure that some of them hear Sean Hannity gushing over King and the whole civil rights movement and assume that Sean knows what he is talking about.
Sean certainly doesn’t remember those days at all- but that doesn’t excuse him for not having learned anything about what conservatives thought about it- conservatives including Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan.
Sean sounds just like a Lyndon Johnson acolyte when it comes to this subject. Except that even Lyndon Johnson wouldn’t have had the illusions about MLK that our buffoonish pal Sean harbors.
LBJ was well aware of what Hoover’s wiretaps of King had uncovered, and the warnings that the Kennedy brothers had given King about Stanley Levison and Hunter Pitts Odell- they were heavily involved with the CPUSA- warnings which King ignored.
