Martin Luther King Day was a time in our communities to reflect on Dr. King's moral and ethical-based leadership and the vision he had for a just and equal nation. Compare that to the corrupt, self-serving, criminal, unconstitutional Bush regime and ask, "What would Martin have done?"

Nobel Prize Laureate for Literature,
Harold Pinter says:
"The crimes of the United States have been systematic, constant, vicious, remorseless, but very few people have actually talked about them. You have to hand it to America. It has exercised a quite clinical manipulation of power worldwide while masquerading as a force for universal good. It's a brilliant, even witty, highly successful act of hypnosis."

Hundreds of thousands protested the war in Washington.

Big Antiwar Rallies Held in U.S., U.K.
Other marches such as ones in San Francisco and Los Angeles were hardly mention in the media except as being "smaller." Each had 50,000! Plus, there were smaller local demos all over the country in solidarity with the big ones.

50,000 march against the war in San Francisco

Pathetic warmonger rally attracts 400!

A total failure of an event and still the corporate media gives it a splash! Why aren't these war boosters in camo instead of college?

Most people who vote Republican say they want less government and not to pay for the welfare of others.  What's actually happening is that those of us who live in the states that tend to vote Democratic are subsidizing those who live in states that vote Republican.
