When Dr. King was murdered, forty years ago today, a pall of shock fell over our almost-entirely white class at Infantry Officer’s Candidate School at Fort Benning, Ga. His goal of changing hearts and minds certainly had affected all of ours. If anyone was racist enough to be glad–and many of us were Southerners–they hid it well. They knew they would find no approbation. We knew that a giant had passed. We didn’t guess there would be only midgets to follow.
MORE: The detail nobody remembers: Dr. King was a Republican. Or that a Republican won passage of the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act that banned segregation in stores and other "public accomodations."
THE TEXAS SCRIBBLER 
Kind of you to limit yourself to the term “midget” as far as Jackson and Sharpton are concerned. I’d have utilized some more colorful and offensive terms, myself.
I doubt they would like being called midgets. And, BTW, I include B. Hussein Obama among them–the man who talks reconciliation while wallowing in his own race.
Let’s say “people who make their ethnicity or gender or… into a profession”.
We have quite a few of those too, unfortunately.
