Why do you include King in with those other despicable characters?

What's despicable about Schlafly or Connerly?

The point is, consistent with the revisionist concept of "presidents day", why differentiate between the great and the not so great. Just as we celebrate all presidents, why not celebrate all activists? (Unless we subscribe to the politically incorrect view that history is impacted by great individuals, and not just great trends.)

I didn't know that was politically incorrect! When did that happen? I wasn't informed by the local PC faction for the prevention of abuse of holidays.

Boy, would that make for some interesting parades ... I think you'd have to sneak in your posters of Ward Connerly and Alan Keyes! I'm imagining the Orangemen crashing the St. Patrick's Day parade in Boston ...
