What A Load Of Democrat Shit (Another blatent plea for the minority vote)

First the Republicans decimated the democrats in Washington States gubernatorial race, then the Donks stole the election with a couple of recounts that ultimately revealed that the dead and convicted felons all conveniently illegally voted for the Democratic Candidate Christine Gregwhore. Fortunately for the residents of Washington State the Republican candidate, Dino Rossi, had the decency to bow out and save this state and its residents from any further embarrassment and most importantly financial burden.

Now the knob that is Crusty Christine Gregoire has made another blatant attempt at further securing minority votes for the Donks.

Look at this load...

If you appreciate history at all this is worth the read.

If you want another fine example of the Democrats shitting on this nation’s history, this is worth the read.

This happened back in late February, but I was unable to find the information I needed to finish this post until now.

KING COUNTY COUNCIL
KING COUNTY, WASHINGTON

Chair

ATTEST:

(signed by) Dorothy M. Owens
Clerk of the Council

Updated: Sept. 23, 1999

Did this happen? You bet it did. OLYMPIA – April 19, 2005 – Gov. Christine Gregoire today (April 19, 2005) signed a bill renaming King County in honor of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

So it took a Piece of shit Democrat to blatantly disrespect King County’s heritage.

A few thoughts...

Well, first of all, it is an atrocity that the county’s namesake was “re-designated”. What the hell is wrong with this country? Do we not want any traditions or history? Are we such a shallow nation that we will re-write history to suit our political needs or to hide the less than desirable moments and people in our past? This "re-designation" is simply preposterous. True, Vice President William Rufus DeVane King did some things that by today’s standards are considered unscrupulous. True, he was a slave owner, and I most definitely agree much of what he did and represented were not good things (by today’s standards), in fact many were horrible acts of discrimination. However, in his day and time he was a typical American man (for lack of better descriptors) and apparently his accomplishments warranted naming the largest county in the state of Washington after him.

Now, back to the Donk in charge of this failed state...

Oh, wait before that a little more history on this jumbled subject...

..Drafter Clerk 11/10/2005 ..Title AN ORDINANCE to establish the official symbol of King County to be the likeness of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.; amending Ordinance 8227, Section 1, and K.C.C. 1.36.010 and adding new sections to K.C.C. chapter 1.36. ..Body STATEMENT OF FACTS: 1. The King County council passed Motion 6461 on February 24, 1986 recognizing the great contributions and many achievements in public service of Noble Peace Prize laureate the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., including his persistent and unfailing efforts leading to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. 2. Motion 6461 changed the namesake of King County from William Rufus DeVane King to the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 3. All counties are creations of state law and chartered by state of Washington charters. 4. The state Legislature passed Chapter 90, Laws of Washington 2005 (Engrossed Senate Bill 5332) to rename King County in honor of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Governor Christine Gregoire signed this legislation in law on April 19, 2005. 5. The official symbol of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., County should reflect and call to mind the namesake of the county. BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF KING COUNTY: NEW SECTION. SECTION 1. There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 1.36 a new section to read as follows: The official symbol of King County shall be the likeness of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. SECTION 2. Ordinance 8227, Section 1, and K.C.C. 1.36.010 are each hereby amended to read as follows: King County flag. The official King County flag shall consist of the county logo of a ((gold crown and encircling double gold rings)) likeness of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on a rectangular green background. NEW SECTION. SECTION 3. There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 1.36 a new section to read as follows: The executive shall implement section 1 of this ordinance by changing the official county logo to a likeness of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. for all official county uses including but not limited to, county vehicles, equipment, buses, printed materials, letterhead, business cards, envelopes and notepads. NEW SECTION. SECTION 4. There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 1.36 a new section to read as follows: The executive shall develop graphic standards, including the official King County logo and setting guidelines and procedures for its use, that designate the King County logo as a likeness of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., for use for all official county uses including, but not limited to, county vehicles, equipment, buses, printed materials, letterhead, business cards, envelopes and notepads. NEW SECTION. SECTION 5. There is hereby added to K.C.C. chapter 1.36 a new section to read as follows: The use of the likeness of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. shall be used for official county purposes and shall not be used: A. For purposes of fundraising or solicitation of donations other than the employee charitable campaign authorized under K.C.C. chapter 3.36 or solicitation for donations to King County; or B. To advertise or promote commercial events or commercial services, goods or merchandise. SECTION 6. To avoid disruption and to reduce cost, the Executive may implement this ordinance in phases, and shall coordinately with separately elected officials and branches of government to encourage implementation of this ordinance in all county agencies.

So, let’s recap before I light into Gregoire. First, in 1986, the state of Washington desecrated the legacy of a Vice President by requesting that the reason for naming its largest county King be changed. Then in 2005, they went a step further to erase their largest county’s history... and now the proposal is to change the county’s flag to a likeness of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King instead of the current flag seen below.

King County Flag (now).gif

This has been the flag of King County for the last 38 years. It has been modified more than once since the establishment of King County.

As if the “re-designation” of King County to represent the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wasn't preposterous enough now they have to plaster his face on the flag?

So, did it happen???

Drum roll please....

Can the Donks destroy all of our nation’s history???

YES THEY CAN! or at least large portions of Washington State’s history.

On 27 February 2006 the illegally "elected" governor of the State of Washington and the King County Council approved an ordinance to replace the crown that has been the logo for King County for 38 years with the image of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the county’s namesake.

Now before the NAACP starts banging on my door or Jesse Jackson gets his drawers in a bunch I want all who read this to realize this isn't about the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. this is about the Democratic Party once again rolling over on this nation’s heritage all in the name of chasing the minority vote. There is no doubt that Dr. King was a great man and this nation owes him dearly, but this is a Democrat issue.

It is appalling that the Jack Ass party is so quick to re-write “re-designate” history to suit their needs.

Now after 10 hours of reading all this gibberish if there is anyone still here...

Sound off...

What do you think?

EV,
Apparently, you didn't read the entire post. I hate to break it to you but even though it was introduced in 2002, the ordinance wasn't signed until just recently. The name of the county isn't changing. The county's FLAG is changing from a crown to a picture of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I'm really not sure where you got confused, but next time you want to comment, get your facts straight first. AKA, read the whole post and follow the links. They take you right to the truth.
Poor bastard... I would really hate to be a moron like you. Must be tough.
