Even Beck can't mar King's legacy. Eug Robinson
Glenn Beck has every right to hold his absurdly titled "Restoring Honor" rally on Saturday.

But the rest of us have every right to call the event what it is: an exercise in self-aggrandizement on a Napoleonic scale.

Sure, has the right, but I'm getting OUT of DODGE!

1. That's true, but he is wickedly trying to mar King's legacy.
What no one seems to get is that the "rally" is topped by two FOX EMPLOYEES, Glen Beck and Sarah Palin.

The media never identifies Palin as a Fox Employee and yet, she is. She's on Fox's payroll.

This whole thing is a Fox News Event. It's not just a Glen Bekkk Rally.
