Was Robert K. Dornan there? He was there in 1963, but the blacks thought he was prejudiced against them. That may have been one factor in his 1996 defeat.

[lentulusgracchus]

Were there no flags at all? Or did anyone display the Palestinian colors, or the red-green-and-black of Marcus Garvey's black-separatist movement?

Just wondering.

By the way, what you described sounded rather like a movement in decay, with the leadership putting on a show and the followership, less than edified by the spectacle, drifting away. Sounds like the leadership of this shindig is getting out of touch with the people even on the Left, and sinking into Leftist-internationalist totalitarianism.

I believe the last question in this piece is answered by those which precede it.

[Northern Yankee]

The spirit of MLK is dead.

These people have killed it.

[lentulusgracchus]

...Obi Egbuna of the Pan-African Liberation Organization took the stand.

Aren't these the guys whose slogan at home is "one settler, one bullet"? He came to the wrong damn country to utter that line, if he did -- we be jus' full up wid white settlers here, homes! And most of them have guns!

[lentulusgracchus]

Bump to notice the presence in the photos (think it's her) of Sheila Jackson-Lee, the Texas 18th Congressional District's self-appointed Queen of the Nile.

Martin Luther King conducted himself in the greatest American tradition and helped to move America much closer to her Constitutional ideals.

He is a direct descendant of Lincoln in fulfilling this nations promise. Our beacon of freedom shines brighter to the world because of him.

The left cannot countenance the fact the MLK was, ultimately, a product of America and his message: so uniquely American.

[paperjam]

Just goes to show that they have lost their way!

Too much hate in their hearts has blinded them all.

We'll pray for them in spite of themselves.

[lizma]

all the problems facing the continent of Africa on the shoulders of President Bush.

Why of coarse! Africa was a paradise til Bush got in office!

Praising Mugabe is like praising Hitler. Don't these people realize that Mugabe's actions are starving millions of blacks. These people just aren't evil, they're stupid, very stupid. A dangerous combination.

[lilylangtree]

Interesting. Is this indicative of why more blacks turn to islam?

[F16Fighter]

Nice seeing Howard Dean show up for this "big day" in celebrating outright hatred and hostility toward his own countrymen. Wonder just how many 'America Is Evil' rallies he'll wind up attending before his hysterical landslide loss?

Next whistle-stop for the political kamikaze Dean: The Al Qaeda Rally in Baghdad.

[Sangamon Kid]

Hey, there's our very own Carol Mostly-Fraud schmoozing with the Mr. Dean. Al Sharpton looks offended.

[Atchafalaya]

Make for a great Pub campaign add don't you think? Video at 1000, stay tuned!

The left-wing black leadership seems to want nothing more than to emulate the Palestinians. Some have predicted that America is heading for the same type of situation, with a large minority population striving to destroy the country. I'm a little more optimistic, but I can see how someone could think that when you hear about stuff like this.

[Loyal Buckeye]

I have no problem with MLK; however, tell me again why I should care what the fanatics in this group do. Ignore 'em until they start acting like normal people.

[EGPWS]

I see now that "Jesse" is trying to buy a vowel again. Arghh.

[thatdewd]

Looks and sounds like a convention of bigots and hatemongers to me. I don't think MLK would have much to do with them. Especially Jesse "excuse me while I smear Martin's blood on my shirt for the photos" Jackson. What a scumbag.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Pettiness, spitefulness, childishness, hatefullness, totally ignorance is blissfulness, motivates these who personify pretentiousness.

[Spiff]

No American flags!? The people attending the rally call themselves "African-American". In other words, they're "African" first and American second. I've seen them fly some bastardized "African" flag as they celebrate a continent and it's cultures which consistently foster the most racist slaughter the world has ever experienced.
