Department of Defense spokesperson claims Dr. King would have understood and endorsed the current wars.

Is there a lie to big to tell?

Apparently not.

1. Absolutely no proof that he would,
but fuck them for even trying.

2. And the tractor they rode in on.
:hi:

How can that guy stand there and do that? It's an interesting question. He'd have to be totally
ignorant of history or a shameless weasel. Wait, maybe it's both!

5. I think this guy has the knowledge of what he is saying, and
it appears via his somewhat uncomfortable tone, and shifting, and clearing of his throat... This guy is just selling the "money trumps peace" message, and laying that template over the stronger message that people are more important than money message... And that is how we know he is wrong.... and could never have Dr. King's approval for this horror......

3. I agree with Jeremy Scahill on this

One of the most despicable attempts at revisionist use of Martin Luther King Jr. I've ever seen: http://bit.ly/g53NHE

4. And I thought Glenn Beck was going to take home that prize.
Amazing.

8. Which leads us to the more pertinent question: Which one would be Jesus gun of choice?
Edited on Sun Jan-16-11 07:09 PM by liberation
The godless yet popular AK-47, or the patriotic but more expensive ARs?

Since America is God's chosen land, it is clear to me that Jesus undoubtedly go for the M-4 when spreading his message of love and peace.

11. And of course, the "Pentagon spokesman"...
who claims that Dr. King would have supported the war in Afghanistan
would just 'HAVE' to be a black man...

Jezzus... :-(

12. Need we more proof.....
.... that the leaders and their spokespeople think the US public is the stupidest, most ignorant bunch of dumbfucks on the planet?

They think, as a whole, we will believe anything whatsoever!
