John McCain lightly heckled during MLK speech

John McCain was lightly heckled during his speech today down in Memphis—on the site and the day that ML King was assassinated. When he apologized for his vote, a vote that will haunt him, a vote he made when he was very old—some spectators chose to honor the memory of ML King by showing him a little kindness. Something that was unavailable to the Black community so many years ago

It's kind of ironic that McCain has a black man holding an umbrella over his head while apologizing for being racist.

i support mccain and i think this was a bit of a blooper for him. i respect mccain alot, his service to the country and all, and obama who i dont support is a smart man, they both though are flip flopping too much. what has politics come to

[dcaudilla]

he's saying anything to get elected. mccain should explain why he voted against the holiday. that would be interesting.

moorlock2003 I agree with you! and yeah people he did apologize for voting against the holiday 7 times.. but not until he decided to run for president! hmmm... so what interpretation does that send?!

I'm sure Africa will take you back with open arms. People like you choose to have a pity party instead of working hard and achieving success. You are your own worst enemy.

wtf is u talking about im black lol.....

apologies arent necessary, because for themost part we dont know if they are sincere anyway...

[bronxzoo2]

you're just as big a fuckin idiot as mccain is, i can't wait for people like you to die off so racism will finally end, what do u mean different time period? Blacks we're treated like dirt and never compensated, America's still hesitant to even apologize for slavery. America turned its back on African Americans, and continue to do it...
