truth to power

"We know now there were no weapons of mass destruction over there. [Standing Ovation] But Coretta knew and we know that there are weapons of misdirection right down here. Millions without health insurance. Poverty abounds. For war billions more but no more for the poor. " --Rev. Joseph Lowery at Correta Scott King's Funeral

Isn't it interesting how Dr. King's anti-war stance is so often glossed over? He's STILL too radical for most people in this country.
