before MLK day was recognised as a holiday it had to pass through congress, many of the dems voted against it.

I found this hard to believe so I looked it up (not extensively) but Wikipedia seems to imply otherwise. Fucking Republicans (although I did like me some Ronald Reagan).

The original bill was submitted by a Democrat and most of the opposition over the years seemed to come from Republicans.


Reluctance to Observe Day


Senator Jesse Helms (R-North Carolina) led opposition to the bill and questioned whether King was important enough to receive such an honor. He also criticized King's opposition to the Vietnam War and accused him of espousing "action-oriented Marxism".[9]

Ronald Reagan was also opposed to the holiday, citing cost concerns.[10] He threatened to veto the King Day bill but recanted after Congress passed it with an overwhelming veto-proof majority (338 to 90 in the House of Representatives and 78 to 22 in the Senate).[11]

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) voted against the creation of the holiday to honor King, and later defended Arizona Republican Governor Evan Mecham's rescinding of the state holiday in honor of King created by his Democratic predecessor. After his opposition grew increasingly untenable, McCain reversed his position, and encouraged his home state of Arizona to recognize the holiday despite opposition from Mecham.[12]

Happy Civil Rights Day everyone!:B...........No postal service:B......no banks:B...........no Government offices:B............and certainly no work!:B.............:B

Way WAY back in the day, yes.

But that was before Republicans turned into narrow-minded, self-serving, power mad assholes.

Not until we drop Ramsey, Iamadick, username and MF down there first.

I respect the sentiments of Martin Luther King, he gave some damn fine speeches when he wasn't busy fucking one of his many mistresses.
