Kind of like the "Ground Zero Mosque", I think Beck can do this, but should not. |

Civil Rights are only for black folk? It ain't the 25th or 50th anniversary, it's the 47th. I suspect if one looks back, there have been many rallies or protests on this date in Washington that had absolutely nothing to do with Glen Beck or Sarah Palin. |

I wouldn't say he's insensitive, 'publicity whore' was the first thing to come to mind. |

There are rallies and protests daily in DC. So now Glenn, Sarah and Al will have a couple more. http://www.glennbeck.com/828/

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead
|
Although I don't annoint Beck or Palin the head of such a thing, I believe it is perfectly appropriate to protest the self serving travesty that the civil rights movement has become on that date. |

Yeah, they fought so that Glenn Beck had the right to sit at the back of the bus. If only he would. |

Speaking of insensitivity, I wonder if they ever use that phrase in the Khmer Rouge. |

Somebody once got very stroppy with my avatar, since what you pick apparently defines who you are, and I had Richard Simmons (not in the biblical sense, of course). I'm not sure whether Blago is a step up, down, or sideways from there. |

If Beck was protesting any number of sacred oxes of the Civil Rights movement, I'd say this was the perfect place and time. Since his rally is intended, among other things, to unite America, I'd say a different date would be smart. Let 'em* have their day. Some day, maybe we'll all be colorblind. *Those on the left that are up in arms over this. |

This "hallowed date" would have come and gone without notice if not for this rally. |
