Fatboy Ted Kennedy brings up the warrantless wiretapping of MLK at Correta's funeral but makes it an accusation of the Bush Administration.

Fascinating. Probably not in today's American history textbooks however.

During the 1964 campaign, Martin Luther King gave the following endorsement:

I have no alternative but to urge every Negro and white person of goodwill to vote against Mr. Goldwater and to withdraw support from any Republican candidate that did not publicly disassociate himself from Senator Goldwater and his philosophy.

In that election, Barry Goldwater received 6% of the black vote. In the previous two presidential elections, GOP candidates Richard Nixon and Dwight Eisenhower received 32% and 39% respectively.

Since King's endorsement, no Republican candidate has received more than 15% of the black vote in a national election.

The communists definitely got their money's worth out of Dr. King.

The Cape Cod Orca should have had his line tapped, back when he was colluding with the likes of Leonid Breshnev against the duly elected President of the United States, and thus against the United States itself.

Let us not forget his plariarism. See the link from Stanford University:

Celebrating this race-baiting serial plagiarist, womanizer, and Communist's birthday with a national holiday is an abomination.

RINOs have ceded truth to the Socialists to appease them.

Morons.

MLK also referred to Goldwater supporters as Nazi-like.

"race-baiting serial plagiarist, womanizer, and Communist" Yep. If the shoe fits ... The FBI STILL should have got a warrant to surveil MLK. And it would have been justified. Hoover never let the lack of warrant stop him anyway. He had enough of the "goods" on politicians not to have to worry, though, didn't he?

Thanks for posting. This entirely appropriate. Too often, we have failed to set the historical record straight. Same occurred in eastern Europe - look at the Polish bishop who just got burned.

No, you won't find this in US History texts. Both Kennedys and King were taken out in the name of national security. You won't find that in textbooks either.

The murders were wrong. Johnson's presidency was the result of a coup. King's death was deemed unavoidable at the time; the CIA also probably took out Bobby. RFK had told friends that only during HIS presidency would the truth about the assasinations be brought out.

The CIA/Johnson/Hoover complex could not let that happen.

These ideas are not so crazy as you might think. Think them through. You can find these events explained in many places and books; just don't look for CBS to investigate any time soon.

I personally read the national intelligence reports on MLK during the mid-sixties. He was up to his ears with communism,adultry and shady finances. I certainly do not honor him.

At the end of the article for which link you provided, there's an additional paragraph that had not been posted that reads:

"Martin Luther King is remembered by Americans for his achievements in furthering equal rights for blacks, but many believe he was also manipulated by the far-left, including CP members. When he firmly hitched the civil rights movement to the "anti-war" movement during the Vietnam war, he appeared to take the side of the violent Communists in Hanoi rather than of those who genuinely opposed the conflict in that country for religious reasons. He labeled this nation as "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today," accused President Johnson of lying about Hanoi's "peace" overtures and likened this country to Nazi Germany for trying to defend South Vietnam from a Communist takeover."

Do you know if this is part of the Ryskind article?
