What a way to honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy as the 50th anniversary of his “I Have a Dream” speech draws near.
Once again, “jiddy” race hustler Al Sharpton put his not-so-soft bigotry of low expectations on full display. At his National Action To Realize The Dream March on Saturday, Sharpton insisted voter ID requirements are … wait for it … raaaaacist!

.@TheRevAl asks a good question about #VoterID. Why do we need a special ID now? #RedeemTheDream

Special ID? Now he’s just makin’ stuff up. And if voter ID requirements are all about Obama, why exactly are people who believe in election integrity still pushing ID laws? Sharpton does realize Obama can’t run in 2016, right? (Don’t answer that.)
Oh, and we’re still waiting for Sharpton and his ilk to take the DNC to task for requiring racist state-issued ID at its convention.
But it gets better. The race-baiting racist urged the audience to whip out a pic of civil rights icon Medgar Evers when asked for voter ID.
"And when they ask us for our voter ID, take out a photo of Medgar Evers." — Rev. Al Sharpton

Smart take. Go ahead and try that at the polls.
I just shouted! "Take out a photo of Medgar Evers! Look at THIS photo! It's an ID of who we are!" – @TheRevAl

So, minorities are capable of acquiring a photo of Evers, but photo ID? That’s just a bridge too far.
Racist Al Sharpton believes blacks are either too stupid, lazy, irresponsible or incompetent to acquire voter ID. Sad. #marchonwashington

Because we’re givers, we’ll admit Sharpton was right about one thing today: “Rosa Parks wasn’t no ho.”
