http://www.duke.edu/ ^

Posted on 01/14/2006 5:45:29 PM PST by Diva Betsy Ross

Harry Belafonte will be the guest speaker at Duke University tommorow for a Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr celebration.

Ok,I dont know every thing about Dr. King~ But this I beleive: He would not appreciate every militant leftist piggy backing onto to his death. I plan to write an email to and call Duke University to let them know how I view their name after hosting this leftist, Duke makes me Puke.

Contact info here

A university that allows an entire department, as I understand it, to employ Marxists (Political Science), is being consistent when it brings the Banana Man on campus.

Aw geez!!! My grand-daughter goes to Duke!! She's too busy with her studies to be very politically active right now, but I know she'll not appreciate the likes of beleafonte being a featured guest at her school! Nor will her folks!

I can't help but wonder who books these @$$-holes!! If he were a live, would they book Hitler to preach his message to our youth.

MLK was a plagiarist. Entire sections of his dissertation were copied from others. Interesting that a university would choose to honor that.

As a University of Kentucky basketball fan (even when they suck really bad. Like this year) it's almost like a solemn duty to hate Duke. This just adds to it...

When Belafonte speaks, the lunatic left listens. By the way, Belafonte is also featured on the cover of a recent AARP magazine, "the magazine for morons".

My company no longer even recognizes this bogus "holiday". This is fine with me. Since there's no big football game, and every prior year that one of my 4 prior employers (they switched, not me) recognized the day, we never realy had off because there was a quarterly review scheduled and besides, it's not like anything was happening on that day otherwise just a bunch of boring, predictable, alot of progress but way more to go yada yadas.

Glad we got floaters instead for the 4th.

In North Carolina, it is better known as Robert E. Lee's Birthday Holiday.

Yes. But not all of MLKs previous friends have called a high ranking professional man a house servant, or called the President a terrorist. I doubt that was MLKs dream.The only reason anyone embraces Belafonte is because he is a barking moonbat ,and apparently Duke U finds that appealing.
