President Bush hailed Martin Luther King Jr. Monday as one of the greatest Americans who ever lived, but said more must be done to ensure that his dream of equality becomes a reality.HOW ABOUT YOU START WITH NOT SUPPORTING BULLSHIT LIKE A FEDERAL MARRIAGE AMENDMENT THAT CODIFIES INEQUALITY INTO THE CONSTITUTION, YOU FREAKING KNOB?!
"At the dawn of this new century, America can be proud of the progress we have made toward equality, but we all must recognize we have more to do," Bush said during a Martin Luther King Jr. holiday celebration at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. "The reason to honor Martin Luther King is to remember his strength of character and his leadership, but also to remember the remaining work."It’s not too bloody hard to “remember the remaining work” when you and your ass-faced conservative cronies take every opportunity possible to ensure that NO FURTHER WORK TOWARD FULL EQUALITY gets done.
"We recommit ourselves to working for the dream that Martin Luther King gave his life for — an America where the dignity of every person is respected; where people are judged not by the color of their skin -- by the content of their character; and where the hope of a better tomorrow is in every neighborhood in this country," Bush said.FUCK. YOU.
Anyone who doesn’t believe in those words hasn’t earned the right to utter them.
