Celebrating St. MLK Day in my Own Unique Fashion

I am not a fan of MLK day. It is akin to S. Africans celebrating Nelson Mandela day, or Ugandans celebrating Idi Amin day, or Chinese celebrating Mao Tse Tung day. It’s like celebrating poop. Who celebrates poop? MLK was a vile human being who embraced Marxist tenets, was surrounded by Communist Lieutenants, is now recognized as plagiarizing his way through life, and whose marriage ethic made Coretta Scott King the most cheated on woman in America. All this information is public knowledge. (You better get the books that detail all of it before they drop down the coming memory hole if you want to read how all this is substantiated.) If blacks need a hero (and every people group needs heroes) why couldn’t they settle on Booker T. Washington instead of allowing White Marxists to pick their heroes for them?

When it comes to King we simply have embraced the journalistic truism that teaches that when one is confronted on writing the truth of a man or on the legend of the man; write the legend. MLK was not noble… was not a visionary … was not a pacifist. He was insufferably cruel to his wife, to the hookers he paid good money to and if we are to believe President Lyndon Baines Johnson, MLK was a “hypocritical preacher.”

Much of King’s most famous works and speeches were largely plagiarized. The Doctoral thesis that made MLK, Dr. MLK is now routinely recognized as having major portions of it completely, word for word, plagiarized. MLK’s “I Have A Dream” speech was plagiarized in significant portions. MLK’s “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” had portions that were significantly plagiarized. The man is a phony completely created by the Communist propaganda of the Left.

However, all of the above seems to make very little influence on people so I have taken to playing the jester to this hallowed of all days.

In honor of MLK’s ubiquitous plagiarizing I have gathered some quotes from MLK that many believe were said by other men but which were really as original to MLK.

(1) “We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in Washington DC, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.”

(2) “Libertae, fraternitae, egalitae.”

(3.) “So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is…fear itself.”

(4) “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.”

(5) “If you have seen me you have seen the father.”

(6) “Love, love me do
You know I love you
I’ll always be true
So please, love me do
Whoa, love me do”

(7) “Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.”

(8) “I am not a crook.”

(9) “Is Paul dead?”

(10) ” We’re more popular than Jesus now; I don’t know which will go first—rock ‘n’ roll or Christianity.”
