Like fellow model minorities Thomas Sowell, Dinesh D’Souza and Linda Chavez, Filipina-American Michelle Malkin’s hostile attitudes make her a darling of white conservatives, and her photogenic face ensures regular appearances on talk shows.

What I love is the way a leftist's face goes purple when I mention that this sort of statement is 180 degrees opposite of what Dr. Martin Luther King stated in his "I have a dream" speech, and when I tell them that Dr. King would be a republican today!

Why do you say that? I'm really curious -- perhaps I don't know enough, but your views would be interesting to hear.

Yes.The content of Mrs. Malkins' character is that of good attributes. Far more admirable than those of the scum that attack her.

"...when I tell them that Dr. King would be a republican today!"

I do not intend to distract from Dr. King's monumental achievements in peaceful activism for civil rights nor his being wisely inspired by M. Gandhi. Because of America's WOEFUL neglect of its Blacks and their constitutional rights as well as their freedom in citizenry guaranteed by the Emancipation Proclamation, Dr. King and many other Black leaders were vulnerable to being courted by communists. Gandhi was a benign idealistic communist - NOT a leftist Bolshevic. For India, he inspired the extraordinary force of passive resistance and peaceful protest through his pro-active leadership against the tyranny of Brit. colonization. Unfortunately, both he and Dr. King were assassinated in their times. Subsequent to India's independence, violent conflicts erupted between Muslim and Hindu factions, and conflicts still persist. I believe if living today, Dr. King would be a moderate socialist and would preach against race mongering to Jesse Jackson, et al. Dr. King's moral temperment is more akin to that of Justice Clarance Thomas' temperment.
