I don't see how it brings dishonor. You appear to be distraught over the fact that someone with a 40 year old criminal record would be for a Republican. You also appear to be what you accused others on the Gay thread of being.
I can see a lot of positives in this. When Fox has Sharpton on they should have King on to be fair and balanced. The same with Rangle and Jackson. It would be a hoot.
A felon, is a felon is a felon. If Don King can Campaign for Bush would you support permitting other felons to cast ballots in November?
Billy Graham isn't perfect either.

Whenever new Nixon tapes are released, the next-day stories invariably highlight the most outrageous tidbits, which typically include some anti-Jewish slurs. This go-round was no exception. Along with Nixon's apparently unserious threat to nuke Vietnam, reporters pounced on this 1972 exchange about Jews in the media between Nixon and the Rev. Billy Graham:
BG: This stranglehold has got to be broken or the country's going down the drain.
RN: You believe that?
BG: Yes, sir.
RN: Oh, boy. So do I. I can't ever say that, but I believe it.
BG: No, but if you get elected a second time, then we might be able to do something.
As the Chicago Tribune noted, Nixon, Graham, and Chief of Staff H.R. Haldeman also cracked anti-Semitic jokes, discussed which journalists were Jewish, and lamented that Washington reporting had deteriorated since Jews entered the trade.
Well, I still think Don King is most likely corrupt, but I saw him on CNN today, and he sure gives a good speech in favor of Bush. He's a mixed blessing, but hopefully he'll be able to help a little.
What can they say? Think about it! (Chuckle)
How do you know he has not petitioned the government for reinstatement of his voting rights? Even if he can’t vote what is wrong with him trying to get others to vote the way he would if he could? You are a study in hypocrisies given my brief perusal of your recent posting history.
Well many "gays" are "convicted felons" based on a myriad of state anti-sodomy laws.
I ran into him in Vegas a few years ago he has more charisma than Bill Clinton.
I gave them help, but they can open the door on their faces on their own, while I stand back and laugh. :)
I won't vouch for his character either, but Don is no dummy. Maybe, just maybe, he realizes what point we are at in history and how important this election is to our survival and the survival of western civilization.
When we are facing an underwear onslaught from the enemy media day after day, it can't hurt to have one of the best PR people out there stumping. I say go for it!
In the same way many conservatives would think that Log Cabin Republicans should be driven from the GOP. I know for a fact that you would oppose that.
It's always bad to have a cultural icon on your side, get real!
Manslaughterers for W!
Yo, you vote for him or I'll kill ya!
(I'll take him)
I know some don't like it but the democrats are going to play as dirty as they can this election. I know a lot of guys I talk to would sooner listen to Don King than Condi Rice.
And so does Bush Babe Erika Harold!
I think felons who have completed parole or probation should have ALL their rights restored.
A bigger crook there never was.
Campaigning for someone and casting a ballot in favor of that person are two separate things. Apples and oranges. The only similarities of the two are that they are freedoms we as Americans enjoy.
