NEW YORK -- Sounding a little like a preacher, a fired-up Sen. Hillary Clinton lambasted the Bush administration and the Republican-controlled Congress during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event, predicting the presidency "will go down in history as one of the worst" and saying the House of Representatives is run like a "plantation" where dissenting voices are squelched.

NEW ORLEANS - Mayor Ray Nagin suggested Monday that Hurricanes Katrina and Rita and other storms were a sign that "God is mad at America" and at black communities, too, for tearing themselves apart with violence and political infighting.

"Surely he doesn‘t approve of us being in Iraq under false pretenses. But surely he is upset at black America also. We‘re not taking care of ourselves."

"It‘s time for us to come together. It‘s time for us to rebuild New Orleans - the one that should be a chocolate New Orleans," the mayor said. "This city will be a majority African American city. It‘s the way God wants it to be. You can‘t have New Orleans no other way. It wouldn‘t be New Orleans."

Mr. Mayor, no, that brown texture paving the streets of your fine city, that's not chocolate.

That's the backs of all the black people you killed by not allowing them to leave while you flew away in your jet.

I hope you die.

We know what they mean. They would never have said it that way if it wasn't what they meant.

So this is how liberals observe MLK Day?

I think they've both figured out that "content of character" and "color of skin" can be selectively used as interchangable code words and attributed in a negative way to people they don't like.

And I really liked MLK. Apparently it's going to have to be conservatives who preserve his legacy.

Didn't allow them to leave? Did he encircle N.O. in Nat'l Guard troops? Whatever his failings, he did order a mandatory evacuation order.
