They are playing MLK on NPR here tonight. The "I have
a dream speech" is on followed by another of King's speeches. What the program is about is African American preaching styles.

How strange, though, to juxtapose the King speech with Bush's - which I just heard on PBS...

How strange. How sad. But how very much reminding me of all the work still ahead.

1. Ha!
Juxtaposing a Bush speech with an MLK speech is like comparing a stuffed pig with lipstick to Lindsay Lohan.

2. They should be playing the "Time to Break Silence" speech on Viet Nam
That would be much more fitting.
