Will the real Dr. King please stand up?
There was no shortage of opportunists present as they broke ground the other day for the $100 million Martin Luther King memorial in Washington, DC. Charlatans from Oprah to Hilfiger lined up in the hope a little of Dr. King’s integrity might rub off on them. But the most out of place speaker was, of course, President George W. Bush, who told the crowd, “our journey to justice is not complete. There are still people in our society who hurt, neighborhoods that are too poor ... there’s still prejudice that holds citizens back.” That whirring noise heard in the background...well, you know the rest.

It’s Tell-a-Friend Thursday and I have a very simple assignment for those visiting the site today: Tell a friend. Convince someone you know to stop by and have a look around. Thanks...
