First, MLK was a Republican. Second, Bobby Kennedy was assassinated just a few months before MLK was. Third, Bill Clinton's swipe against Bush 41, calling him the frozen chosen, was class warfare. (I had to look it up. I had never heard it before.) And, what's up with 6 hour funerals. Rosa Parks" was 6 hours also. I have never experienced that.

Finally. revisionism is rampant. MLK was an integrationist, and everyone in the room is part of the resegration black power movement that followed. They don't want integration.

Completely classless remarks from Clinton about Bush 41, particularly given the public generosity of the latter regarding his successor.

"Bobby Kennedy was assassinated just a few months before MLK was..."

Dr. King was assassinated in April '68, Bobby Kennedy in June '68

"Bobby Kennedy was assassinated just a few months before MLK was."

People remember so little, any more! Kennedy was assassinated two months AFTER MLK, almost to the day. He marched at MLK's funeral.

As an Episcopalian, I can tell you that's how we refer to OURSELVES. It was a joke, not "class warfare".
