Martin Luther King - Community Organizer

[TerminalPower]

He freed many 'pasty white people' from the bondage of slavery, ...the disgusting legacy bequeathed by your forefathers. The kind that enslaves minds, more securely than chains do the body.
He freed 'pasty white people' from the kind of slavery that leads to incredibly foolhardy bouts of hubris, injustice
...and the stupidity of following other suicidal white people off a cliff because their legacy won't allow them to follow a Black man to prosperity.

He also freed a lot of 'pasty white people' from dogmas that suppressed their own inclinations & desires.

After all, ...you know what they say... Once you go Black... 

...and he paved the way for Vanilla Ice and the Beastie boys. 

Wow I would have expected to hear this kind of racial profiling from a LAPD officer or Elijah Mohammad, Rev. Wright, Malcolm X, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama or some other race hustler. 

Get this straight you sound racist...Many White people and their forefathers had nothing to do with the oppression of Slaves in America and many more were at the forefront of Civil Rights. 

Remember this before you open your mouth and stereotype people.  You didn't learn a damn thing from MLK.

pssst: Perhaps you might want to re-read what I have actually written.

While doing that, please take care to go over every single word slowly and carely, pondering the meaning of each word, so that you can comprehend what I actually wrote, and not continue to jump to an incorrect assumption.

Thank You

Terminal Power,

I'll even make it easy for you by highlighting specific significant words and phrases within my post.

[1] The word "many" does not mean ALL. There were many who were freed, not ALL

[2] 'pasty white people' was the phrase calfzilla chose to describe himself. Having not met the man myself, I will not call him a liar. I don't know very many people who would refer to themselves as a pasty white person if it were not true. Maybe calfzilla should hit a tanning salon, or get a bottle of spray on tan or something?

[3] My use of the word 'your' was a specific reference to calfzilla, and not a reference to all white people (pasty or not)

[4] Here again, the words 'a lot of' means just that... a lot of, not ALL. Clearly the presence and contributions of certain posters on this board reveals the fact that MLK had little effect on them and as they aptly demonstrate on a daily basis the mental bondage they still endure.

Hope That Clarifies

I noticed the people who love both the bible and elective wars ignored that.

Rob,
If you were a God-bot, ...would you touch it?
I wouldn't, ...not even with Coach's 10 ft. Bible!

Actually we ignored it because it was irrelevant.

Perhaps it has.  I do appreciate you going to that length to explain.  While I don't know 1 "pasty white" person who has been freed as you explain I will take your word for it.

Thanks for the effort put forth, I do appreciate it!

Glad I was able to clarify.

And that was the point. When Palin was announced as the VP pick last week, the Obama camp and many on the left belittled her accomplishments, specifically that of her being the mayor of her small hometown.

Palin simply threw it back in their faces. If a small-town mayor and 2-year governor isn’t qualified, then Obama CERTAINLY is not qualified. And he’s at the top, not the bottom, of his party’s ticket. That's why Obama has been so defensive of his "community organizer" credentials.

Carl Rove stated that The Governor of Virginia wasn't qualified to be VP because he was only a councilman and mayor of the 105th largest city in America and then the Governor of that State.

So how is Palin more qualified than that guy whom Carl Rove said was not qualified?

Qualified for what? ...to step into the presidency in a moment's notice if need be?
...or to distract press and public attention away from Obama and onto McCain?

Take your pick.

[24KT]

Take your pick.

Well if cheney is any example, ...the job of the Vice President (of which Palin admittedly had no clue about as little as 6 weeks ago) involves:

• controversy
• lying to the American public
• starting wars
• war-profiteering
• destroying the careers of those who disagree
• punitive partisanship
• pillaging the US treasury
• shooting people

Hmmmm.... so far, as far as I can tell, ...she needs to shoot someone to complete the list.

Energizes base; scares liberals; attracts women voters.....NEXT!!

Again, you miss the point. It's a classic case of pot calling kettle black. The Dems are in NO position to yak about the GOP's #2 not having enough experience, when their #1 has even less than she does.

Why did the Dems leave perhaps the best overall pick (H. Clinton) on the shelf, especially after bragging for MONTHS that a Clinton-Obama/Obama-Clinton ticket would be unstoppable?

BOTH!!! 

[240 is Back]

the clip of rove bashing kaine for not having enough experience was hilarious.

Palin has about 1/4 of kain'e's experience.  That one did backfire on rove.  Not that it matters.  if you're laughing at cable news 'gotcha' moments, you're already nota  swing voter.  you know if you support the repub machine or not.

Exactly!!!

Rove ain't running for office and neither is President Bush. Obama, however, is; and his snide comments about Palin's tenure as a mayor CONTINUE to munch his hind quarters.

I dunno, but I think perhaps Hilary's conduct throughout the primaries may have had a lot to do with that.

The only people bragging about that ticket as "unstoppable" were repubes like you and Hillary supporters after it became obvious she would not win the nomination. 

Hillary is smart and capable, but comes with TREMENDOUS baggage. The repubes wanted her on the ticket because they know it would galvanize the base better than even Sarah Palin has. There is a visceral dislike of Hillary by many, and Obama didn't need that distraction. He also did not need the potential distraction of BILL Clinton on the campaign trail in the last two months before the election.

I guess he never did anything either.  Hi Palin!

240 - do you now agree that Barry is nothing compared to MLK?
