Is he Martin Luther King or is he Malcolm X?

Is Barack Hussein Obama really Martin Luther King or is he Malcolm X? Ruthe Blum argues that the problem is that Jews (and maybe non-Jews as well) don't really know the difference.

Though recent reports that Obama phoned Rev. Wright to ask for advice were firmly denied by the White House, an event that took place last Saturday in Georgia is on the record.

As part of a pro-Obama tour of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, two extremist icons of the African-American community spoke at the St. James Baptist Church in Forsyth Georgia. One was former mayor of Atlanta, Andrew Young. The other was Rev. Dr. James Lowery.

Young was the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. under Jimmy Carter. He ended up resigning when it was discovered that he was conducting covert meetings with the P.L.O. But while still holding the post, he made the following statement about the leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran.

“[The Ayatollah] Khomeini will be somewhat of a saint when we get over the panic. In two years, our relations with Iran will be on a pretty even keel.”

Lowery gave the benediction at Obama’s inauguration in Jan. 2009. Six months later, Obama awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

At last weekend’s gathering, he made a comment that was eerily similar to something Michelle Obama announced as soon as she became First Lady. She had said that her husband’s election was the “first time she was proud to be an American.” Lowery said that his giving the benediction at the president’s inauguration was the first time he enjoyed hearing the national anthem.”

Even more impressive was his choice of language. "I don't know what kind of a n----- wouldn't vote with a black man running,” he jived.

The icing on the cake was his admission that in his youth, he used to say that “all white folks were going to hell.” After that, he “mellowed and just said most of them were.” Today, he acknowledged, he is back where he started.

These are Obama’s true colors, no matter how hard he and his “amen corner” in the media try to hide it.
