[su_right_ad]”Wild Bill” Finley got big applause when he told a South Carolina Tea party convention that Martin Luther King, Jr. would be one of them if he were with us today.

Finley told the crowd the left has “hijacked” King’s dream and that racism would have died out long ago if it wasn’t “manufactured” by liberals.

He said that MLK, who worked closely with socialist and anti-capitalist civil rights activiststhroughout his career, would not abide the left’s “political agenda.” Finley said that if King were alive today the left would “spit in his face.”

“We are the people who practice Dr. King’s dream,” he said. “It is the Tea Party where people are not judged by the color of their skin, and it’s Tea Party Americans who believe that character still counts.”

“So today, I am officially announcing that the Tea Party is taking Martin Luther King away from the liberal left,” Finley said.

    Absolutely no shame. 50 years from now the GOP will tell us all about how they were for gay rights.

    This guys head is 9 gallons shy for that hat.

    • Larry Schmitt January 20th, 2015 at 3:00 pm

      The head is plenty big enough, what’s inside it wouldn’t fill a teaspoon.

    I’m sure when he’s not denigrating the president (or burning crosses, I’m sure), he likes to praise MLK. Remember, he doesn’t hate black folks, he just disapproves of their color.

    • Larry Schmitt January 20th, 2015 at 3:01 pm

      But some of his “best friends” are black, or know someone who’s black, or talked to a black guy once, or something.

    MLK would be alive today if not for a redneck right wing racist pig like this Tbagging liar….

  8. William January 20th, 2015 at 2:48 pm

    Oh yeah, ‘cuz baggers are all about racial harmony, and thought provoking solutions to strife and inequality.

    • Larry Schmitt January 20th, 2015 at 3:04 pm

      And spelling. This is the moran syndrome in action.

  9. StoneyCurtisll January 20th, 2015 at 2:49 pm

    In reality…
    If Martin Luther king were alive today, they, (teabaggers), would be calling him a communist race hustler.

    • OldLefty January 20th, 2015 at 3:01 pm

      That is EXACTLY what they called him.

  10. whatthe46 January 20th, 2015 at 2:50 pm

    i wanna throw up.

  11. Larry Schmitt January 20th, 2015 at 2:59 pm

    They wouldn’t even spit in his face. Why would they do that to someone who was actually worth something?

  12. arc99 January 20th, 2015 at 2:59 pm

    When Dr. King was alive, the right did spit in his face at least metaphorically.

    these people are unbelievable, a bunch of pathological liars.

    http://mlk-kpp01.stanford.edu/index.php/encyclopedia/encyclopedia/enc_white_citizens_councils_wcc/

    As late as 1966, the White Citizens’ Council teamed up with the virulently anti-Communist John Birch Society to petition the federal government to investigate whether King and over 100,000 other rights activists had Communist connections. Yet King believed that their power was fading: ‘‘Two years ago Americans, in a presidential election, overwhelmingly rejected representatives of Birchism and the White Citizens Council,’’ he said, referring to Barry Goldwater’s defeat by Lyndon B. Johnson. ‘‘It is my honest opinion that this same majority still finds repulsive persons who strive to impose 19th Century standards upon our society’’ (King, 26 May 1966).

      MLK was not a violent man, but I bet he would give me 50 bucks to kick this guys ass. I would feel guilty for beating up someone with apparent brain damage, but this type of damage is self-inflicted so I could justify my actions.

  13. OldLefty January 20th, 2015 at 3:01 pm

    It IS amazing.

    They REALLY are like the little kid who even as watched him spill the milk, just keeps saying, “No, I didn’t”, “No, I didn’t”, “No, I didn’t”, “No, I didn’t”… And you know the kid could keep that up all day.

  14. ExPFCWintergreen January 20th, 2015 at 3:01 pm

    A real American he-man. You can tell ’cause he’s wearing a cowboy hat. Like Randy Jones.

    This guy is actually the poster boy for the Presidents efforts to furnish Americans with higher education.

    I did not see a single minority in the room. I’m shocked

    “Wild Bill” Finley proving yet again Conservatives can’t come up with their own ideas so they try and steal or spin Liberal ideas as their own.
