To say such a thing is a perversion of what he advocated.  Only those who fear or stand to lose standing as whites become the numerical minority advocate colorblindness.

Dude, the fact that it's still being discussed means that it wasn't a myth when he said it.  It's an interpretation of what he meant, and there are many people in the world who took it to be his vision. In fact, that's actually what he said:

"I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

Dream = vision.

Who the hell are you (as well as this author) to tell me what King's dream was, and declare my understanding to be a myth?  Did you talk to him?  He didn't say it WAS a colorblind society. Far from it, though that's the straw man developed in the article.

Ugh.

The Bible salesman is beginning to show his true colors, and they ain't pretty.

Rubio?  He's just sticking to his tightly scripted campaign, never let them peek behind the curtain.

 One thing you can say about Trump, like him or hate him, is that he has made people take a hard look at both sides, and has actually made them talk about real issues confronting this country.

Give me a break. You are parroting the same talking points I heard coming from  Christie and Trump just yesterday!  This "tightly scripted" and "never let them peek behind the curtain" crap is the lamest thing I've heard Christie say in this entire campaign.  What politician doesn't have some scripted statements?  Is it just coincidence that I heard in every single fucking debate that Christie was "fighting terrorism" as a federal prosecutor after 9/11? 

And what's with the peaking behind the curtain thing?  Is Rubio hiding from interviews somewhere?  I seem to see him being interviewed at least weekly.  That's a lame ass characterization trying to make him look cloistered like Hillary, when it couldn't be any farther from the truth.

Except for immigration, what exactly has Trump raised that wasn't being discussed by the other candidates?

Cruz is using the religious rhetoric to solidify the religious right.  I don't like it either.  It is an unfortunate part of politics. 

I don't trust Rubio due to his stance on illegal immigration and the Gang of eight crap he pulled.  I don't like Trump because I think he's a Progressive, and will sell out conservative values to make deals.  However, I would vote for any of them over Hillary or Bernie.

Let's all sit down and take a long sip of some fine Kentucky bourbon (I like Knob Creek), and relax for a minute.

I didn't like Cruz's speech either.  I'm a Catholic, but most Catholics would not call themselves Evangelicals. I didn't like Rubio's Gang of Eight stuff either, though he's admitted he was wrong, which is more than some politicians would ever do.

But with Rubio and Cruz, we have the best chance of nominating the most conservative candidate fielded by the GOP since Ronald Reagan 35 years ago!   

There is no question in my mind that either of them would hold firm on most conservative principles that are important to me. Add to that the fact that Marco Rubio has a gift for explaining and advocating conservatism that we haven't seen since the Gipper, and that will be necessary to win in the general election. That's how "Reagan Democrats" came to be.

The circular firing squad is getting tiresome. I'm ready to start directing fire to the real enemy, though that will be impossible until Thin Skin Trump gets tired of the race and drops out.

Government is now a for profit business that funds the elite, political/government class.  They have WAY too much power over us.

And the sycophant Millennial Bernie supporters can't even grasp that power would be so concentrated in the political elite that they would lose all say in their lives, probably because they've never read a history book that was longer than 140 characters.

It's a throw-away to appeal to the idiot young Millennials who think it's a big hassle (read 'responsibility') to learn how to drive, buy their own cars and pay for their own insurance, fuel, and maintenance. Product of Soccermomery (I just invented that term).

Well done, sir. Well done!

From the attached article-

So, force the evil, bad oil companies to become tax collectors, then give the money to Google, now the wealthiest company on the planet to help them make self driving cars.      How the fuck does a self driving car save the planet??? Why does Google and other companies fiddling around with self driving cars need any tax payer help???

The great thing about this tax is, it's going to ease in real slow so we won't notice and then when oil prices rebound up to where they should be when the Saudis realize they can't give it away anymore... in oh say, five years from now, this tax can stay forever!! $6-$7 a gallon gas prices here we come!

The basic Democrat playbook-

• Do whatever Europe does.
• Apply for EU membership.
• Have the UN take over the new larger EU.
• Make everything fair for everyone everywhere in the world.

I was wondering the same thing about this self- driving bullshit. WTF?

I actually thought it was against the law for federal funds to be used to influence local politics/elections, maybe just election/ballot issues in particular but I agree this is troubling.

'Gimp

Oh, they're not trying to influence. They will out and out blackmail the states.
No .05 BAC?  No federal highway funding. They did that with the national 55 MPH limit in the 1970s and 1980s.
