Of all the masterful and historical statements from war time US Presidents and infamous leaders of other countries, Obama chooses this from Martin Luther King, “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” He just keeps on removing himself from any association with the greatness of this country.

We all know why MLK was chosen to be quoted.

“The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.””

That has a nice feel, but also slow and not fitting for fast happening events.

If Obama is smart, this is a muddling message to the mullahs that America will not protest loudly, all the while disarming American liberals with an MLK quote.

But more likely just about himself.

No way a regular speech writer inserted “As I said in Cairo” garbage, that was pure O.

I’m betting his next statement will quote Mohammad or the Koran.
