That's right Harry!! They used black helicopters and an elite team of Elvis impersonators to keep you away!!

Fat Elvis ate Harry at one point and later heaved him back up. He couldn't stomach him either.

Every time I hear that stupid "Day-O" song at an arena, I want to hold up a sign that says "Harry Belafonte is a race-baiting media whore". I guess it would not take much time for both my sign and me to be extricated from the arena. (and I am an American male black conservative republican)

The King children made the final decision, Belafonte said, but they were "fiercely intimidated by the president's representatives."
Perhaps that explains the statement made during the State of the Black Union, to defame the King Family about have to explain what they did to Harry. After all, he was the one who paid the King family rent and expenses after Martin was assassinated.

Does Harry have some kind of medical condition, or what? He's getting worse by the day.

I don't care what his politics are. I subscribe to the Laura Ingraham doctrine, "Shut Up and Sing !" Just because he's an artist he has a public voice and credibility? Not!

When you are ready with that sign, let me know. I'll have a similar one and will be right with you!!! (I am a 5'8" white guy with low center of gravity. If they are going to extracate us - they will have to work for it!)

Yeah Harry. Blame it on the Prez. We all know you were e-mailing nude photos of yourself to Chavez when the funeral was taking place.

" My dues are up next month and I'm seriously considering canceling my membership.

I canceled my membership a couple years ago. Today I received a letter from the executive director stating they'd noticed I'd not re registered with them.

I took the card provided and magic-marked an "X" across it, then wrote on the registration form that I don't patronize socialists. I then placed it all in their postage paid envelope and placed it in the mail box.

The wife and I categorically refuse to be associated with that organization. I have web addresses for a couple alternative seniors programs but haven't followed up on it yet.
