Well...at least one would have to go out of their way between the Lincoln Memorial and the Capitol to get to it.

Have they started work on the Obama memorial yet? I figured since he has the ego of an Egyptian Pharaoh, he would want to oversee the building of his own memorial which will have to be bigger than all those memorials to dead “whitey's”.

Given the King family’s history of charging everybody else for anything having to do with Dr. King, did Dr. King’s children charge the government for rights to Dr. King’s likeness and the use of his speeches?

Best comment so far: “So when did MLK get encased in carbonite?”
To: Artemis Webb
Is it just me, or does this statue look more like “Odd Job” from the old James Bond movies than Martin Luther King. (and on a side note, do you think that any of the black community will be upset that MLK is lilly white? after all the artist could have used black marble.)

That looks like something you’d find on a Soviet memorial to the “Great Patriotic War,” more than a memorial to MLK. That arms-folded pose just looks wrong. Shouldn’t they have put him in a pose from the “I Have a Dream” speech?

Any mention on the granite wall of how the democrats tried to block any and all civil rights legislation at every turn?

Tacky with a capital T! Whatever one thinks of the woman beating, plagiarizing, socialist miscreant now canonized as an American saint and champion of color-blind equality, this memorial looks brutish and uninspired compared to his de facto memorial in Birmingham.

I got all excited when I heard about the King memorial, but that isn’t Elvis Presley at all?!? It looks like some black guy! What a ripoff...
