A Late-Night MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin apologized for remarks he made during an MLK event. “Surely God is mad at America. He sent us hurricane after hurricane after hurricane, and it’s destroyed and put stress on this country,” Nagin said on Monday. He also claimed the city would become predominately Black again because “it’s the way God wants it to be.” Who is Nagin’s speechwriter — Pat Robertson?
• Republicans are pissed off over comments Hillary Clinton made during an MLK event. “When you look at the way the [Republican-led] House of Representatives has been run — it has been run like a plantation, and you know what I’m talking about,” Clinton said. Who is Hillary’s speechwriter — Ray Nagin?
• Jesse Jackson denied accusations made in a new book that Martin Luther King Jr. once accused Jackson of using the civil rights movement to promote himself. Jesse Jackson doing something to promote himself? Nah.
• Michael Jackson is promoting himself for a new job. The King of Pop wants to consult for a Bahrain-based company seeking to build theme parks in the Middle East. Note to the potential employer: Be careful when Jackson tells you he’s an expert on children’s amusement.
