As a conservative, I find it unconscionable that only this man has a federal holiday set aside for him. No longer are any of our founding fathers honored this way. Only this one man who has been built up by the media into a hero. Someday, I hope the truth about him will be revealed.

I feel that the day should be retitled Civil Rights Day.

The truth is known by some. Almost all who do know either ignore or are afraid to speak the truth, though. MLK was a womanizer, plagarist and leftist. Riots had a habit of following in his wake.

That's a very good point. Ironically, I believe the establishment of Martin Luther King Day as a national holiday has done more to cheapen the basic notion of a "national holiday" than it has done to honor the man.
