R.I.P. Coretta Scott King
Another pioneer of the civil rights movement is gone. Rest in peace, Coretta Scott King:
Coretta Scott King, who with grace and determination kept her husband’s legacy alive and emerged as one of America’s most influential voices for social change and human rights, died yesterday at an alternative medical clinic in Mexico. She was 78.
Asking for It
I don’t often agree with George W. Bush, but this time he’s absolutely right:
The only way to protect our people, the only way to secure the peace, the only way to control our destiny is by our leadership.
To call the Bush Administration’s record of leadership “dismal” would be to flatter. We need better.
Impeach Bush! He’s asking for it!
Bush to America: Shut Up and King Me
In George W. Bush’s America, on the night of the State of the Union address, only the president gets to exercise freedom of speech:
Peace activist Cindy Sheehan was arrested Tuesday in the House gallery after refusing to cover up a T-shirt bearing an anti-war slogan before President Bush’s State of the Union address.
“She was asked to cover it up. She did not,” said Sgt. Kimberly Schneider, U.S. Capitol Police spokeswoman, adding that Sheehan was arrested for unlawful conduct, a misdemeanor.
The charge carries a maximum penalty of one year in jail, Schneider said.
