it is true that MLK did inherently put the burden on white people and not blacks, in the inuendos. There was a certain amount of black moralizing whites pride indeed.

That being said, he probably was too reconciliatorial in the end and thus was executed because he was starting to go off the script.

," King's legacy "is not color blind,"

Then it should not be a national holiday.

Before we got to the "Love Sees No Color" era of the 1990s, much less the election of a black president...

I see two - and a few in between.

Nobody seems quite sure what prompted the request

Really? Seriously? You are actually go to go with this? Are you playing the stupid card? Obama plays the race only slightly less then those 2 world class race card players Sharpton and Jackson.

He does hope that "the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave-owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood." But when he was speaking in 1963, nobody was really keeping the sons of slave-owners away from that table.

In '63, those sons would be pushing 80. I doubt they cared.

Governor Palin: ‘NAACP Leader Shows True Colors’

Posted on January 22 2014 - 12:12 PM - Posted by:

Governor Palin posted the following on Facebook:

NAACP Leader Shows True Colors

The NAACP’s attacks on Senator Tim Scott illustrate the anger and increased intolerance of the political left. Having falsely staked the claim of “embracing diversity” we see another example of the left’s “tolerant hug” excluding those who do not subscribe to their liberal agenda. It’s not personal. It’s not racist. It’s not mean spirited. It’s COMMON SENSE to NOT subscribe to their failed liberal policies that lead to dependence on an unstable and bankrupt government.

But here’s another example of how the supposedly tolerant left treats an African American conservative who doesn’t subscribe to their failed liberal agenda:

State NAACP Chief: Tim Scott a Ventriloquist’s ‘Dummy’

Tim Scott was raised by a single mother, started working at age 13, faced challenges through school, and then met a mentor – a local Chick-fil-A operator – who taught him how to “think your way out of poverty.” With that, and strong work ethic, Tim’s commonsense conservative roots took hold. Tim became a successful small businessman, Congressman and U.S. Senator. He is an honorable man who judges people by the content of their character, not the color of their skin, and seeks the same for himself.

With too many purposefully dividing America on the basis of race and gender, it’s imperative that we who strive for a truly United States, under God, take a stand! Don’t be afraid to call out hypocritical double standards applied to independent Americans who are continually falsely accused of discrimination and intolerance. Playing small and timid in this era of potentially great progress towards American solidarity helps no one.

Take a stand! Help leaders like Tim Scott get re-elected in 2014. We need more strong leaders who, like Tim, are conservative because they’ve learned from life experiences, not poll driven messaging, what works for our great country.

Support Tim Scott today: http://votetimscott.com/

Any professional writer who uses the adolescent rhetorical trope “seriously” should have his skull beaten in.
