Jim Hoft has rounded up the bash-Bush events planned for the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday tomorrow, including:

Quote:
* New York Martin Luther King Day Events, Realizing the Dream: A Call to Conscience, actors Susan Sarandon and Jeffrey Wright will read select works of Dr. King.
* United for Peace and Justice provides handouts for your anti-war, Anti-Bush MLK events.

* On Monday, January 16, at 7 PM at Steppenwolf's Upstairs Theater, some of Chicago's outstanding theater artists will present scenes/readings in a performance that they hope will inspire you to assume your birthright as citizens of the world in this moment of political upheaval. Readings from Mark Twain, Henry David Thoreau, Martin Luther King, Jr., Naomi Wallace, Margaret Atwood, Harold Pinter and recent testimony from the Commission of Inquiry on Crimes Against Humanity Committed by the Bush Administration.

Donations at the event will benefit World Can't Wait - Drive out the Bush Regime, a national movement calling on Bush to step down and take his whole program of immoral war, bigotry, intolerance, and suppression of science with him.

* Monday, Jan 16 - Martin Luther King Day, support Black Voices for Peace in kickoff of nationwide speaking tour by four mothers whose children died in Iraq. Special meeting place: Plymouth Congregational United Church of Christ, 5301 N. Capitol St, NE from about 2 - 6pm. (Peace Majority Report)

* Sen. Edward Kennedy will join the LET JUSTICE ROLL Living Wage services and/or events on the Martin Luther King Holiday Weekend in order to inspire, educate and mobilize congregations and community organizations to support an act for raising the minimum wage at both the Federal and State levels.

* In Fort Lauderhill -- Singer Harry Belafonte is featured speaker at the fifth annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day program, 7 p.m. at Diamante's Banquet Center, 6501 W. Commercial Blvd., Lauderhill. Cost is $50 per person. 954-730-4218.


Now where would you liberals be if it were not for George W. Bush? He does not bow down to the 'almighty liberal way'. Without him you all would have no talking points, without him you all would be bored.

Let freedom of speech ring!
