Now your injecting common sense into this argument cant be doing that Hoov.Typical lefties hide and distract the arguments.As if there is any comparison there.

No, Beck is not MLK.
And MLK is not MLK.
An early death has a way of making someone bigger than they were.
MLK was a great speaker and writer, but he was a man and had all the faults thereof.
In faithfulness to his wife, Beck appears to be a far greater man than MLK was.

PS who says HE wrote the speeches ? And a far greater man in a lot of other areas too,and dont even go there on Becks substance abuse problems when he was younger,if your mother committed suicide no telling what you would do without Gods help.Hence Becks searching and study on many religions. He even contemplated suicide himself and was a Cobain fan at the time.

Isn't abortion one of the non negotiable absolutes. I have less problem with libs stealing money from us to hand over to their friends than supporting abortion.

The haters love to point this out about King as if somehow this dismisses all he accomplished. Beck has problems too, not the least of which is his arrogance.

No one is dumb enough to equate Dr. King and Beck unless you're Coadie or some other kool-aid sychophant who thinks Dr. King would somehow be a Tea Partyer.

Even Beck was wise enough in recent days to remark in the last couple of days saying, "I'm no Martin Luther King" ... Well NO DUH, CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ....

but remember that whole "Ground Zero Mosque" argument that is centered around ... "You may have the constitutional right to do something but it doesn't make it wise or right to do so"? We're going to protest our disgust ... no matter what because that's our right?

Well ... that's what many are saying here .... a self-proclaimed history buff claims to innocently re-schedule his initial rally date because it was "on the Sabbath" ... code for Sunday ... and so chooses in similar fashion to have a mass demonstration at the same location on the same sacred day in our American history ... while chalking it up to "divine providence" after realizing his faux pas ... having read about the coincidence in the *chuckle* New York Times.

All the while, promoting this Fox News informercial with:

discussions of the rally's supposedly crucial role in American history which have included frequent invocations of the civil rights movement, and Martin Luther King Jr. in particular. According to Beck, the rally will "reclaim the civil rights movement" because "Martin Luther King's dream" has "been distorted" and "massively perverted" by progressives. In attacking the people he claims are "perverting" King's legacy (i.e. progressives), Beck has suggested that he and his followers are the "inheritors and the protectors of the civil rights movement." In Beck's words, they will "take that movement, because we were the people that did it in the first place."

Reclaim the Civil Rights Movement because your faction is the inheritors and protectors of the movement ... buuuuuuuuuaaaaaawwwwwwhaaaa.

Mr. Smith ... agree the height of arrogance.

Also ....consciously pimping a known homophobe, Alveda King, a cousin, on stage as a not-so-subtle link to legitimize the poor choice in scheduling.

As Martin Luther III graciously remarked in his Washington Post Op-ed piece:

My father championed free speech. He would be the first to say that those participating in Beck's rally have the right to express their views. But his dream rejected hateful rhetoric and all forms of bigotry or discrimination, whether directed at race, faith, nationality, sexual orientation or political beliefs. He envisioned a world where all people would recognize one another as sisters and brothers in the human family. Throughout his life he advocated compassion for the poor, nonviolence, respect for the dignity of all people and peace for humanity.

However, it doesn’t take much reading between the lines to realize the rest of the essay appears to speak directly to Glenn Beck, without mentioning his name:

He [King] did, however, wholeheartedly embrace the "social gospel." His spiritual and intellectual mentors included the great theologians of the social gospel Walter Rauschenbush and Howard Thurman. He said that any religion that is not concerned about the poor and disadvantaged, "the slums that ........ them, the economic conditions that strangle them and the social conditions that cripple them[,] is a spiritually moribund religion awaiting burial." In his "Dream" speech, my father paraphrased the prophet Amos, saying, "We will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream."

This might explain why his son didn't attend the "Honor" rally but opted to attend the counter-rally down the street aptly called "Reclaiming the Dream".

And I guarantee his son is against abortion too.

Consistency, thou art a jewel.

That right there is unnecessary, filthy, and deserves an infraction.

Vulgarity doesnt belong on a Apostolic forum....and that phrase "T__ B______" is as crude as they come

Just looked it up and see there are multiple meanings... as my intent was not vulgarity ... didn't even know that was one of its meanings thanks to Urban Dictionary. Good to know you're on top of those types of things.

I have no problem ... editing it.

Would hate to allow you to obfuscate and flop for a foul without addressing the core of what was said.

Why is it a racist thing for a white conservative to rally us for our rights? Sorry that aint cutting it in this fairness doctrine era thankfully we have that still,even though that too is under attack by the left whackos. Dont try to make this a black vs white thing like pelosi,waters and their ilk. PS there would be alot of african americans at these rallies but their afraid of being called uncle toms, another lefty divide and conquer tactic.The(competing rally) was nothing more than race baiting by Al Sharpton, who has been doing that every since the Tawana Brawley fiasco.

Are you serious? What in the world does ANY of that have to do with an attack on whites and the christian way of life? Do you feel like you are being compelled to go fornicate or get drunk because illegals are crossing over?

I swear, this post sounds like a confused montage from the ultra far right and some neo nazi's all jumbled incoherently together

BTW not all other races assimilate like that either. Their kids assimilate.

An interesting article I found online that I figure some should appreciate, even though I know there will always be the scoffers also.

Note: the Luciferian globalists control the major media and they will only allow what is called "controlled opposition", which are "wolves in sheep's clothing" who say enough truth to be believable, but will then direct their listeners away from knowing who all are really behind the scenes controlling the puppets that they have put in place.

(quotes from the article, followed by a link to the entire article)

"The masses are bribed with "social services" and fooled by the "Left - Right" conflict. Both Left and Right serve monopoly capital."

"The purpose of the phony opposition is to co-opt the opposition and discourage any genuine grass roots political movement from starting. Their mission also is to fight trivial battles and distract us from the stealth establishment of world government."
