Pillars = MLK

By The Daily Dish

A reader writes:

As I'm sure you've seen (and are aware), Thursday is the anniversary of the "I have a Dream" speech given where? In front of what? Lincoln Memorial! Columns! I can't believe this is even a debate!

Again: enough with the overkill. Everyone - everyone - will know the anniversary. You don't have to bash people over the head with it. And Obama is not MLK - at least, not yet. Walt Starr argues the stage is unfinished. I guess television will be the judge.
