The KKK is sure doing a lot of protesting and marching this past week.

 For a racist organization who routinely mocks the marches,protest, and boycotts organized by the Reverend Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton that they pattern after the Civil Rights protest organized by the late Rev.Martin Luther King,Jr. , they sure are acting a lot like the legendary iconic African-American freedom fighters, with all of their marching and protesting this week.

The protest staged by Dr. King  proved to be  effective in defeating the Klan in the 60’s.

The Klan,just this past week, held two days worth of rallies in Kennett,Missouri in protest of the Heather Ellis versus Wal-Mart case.

…and on Saturday they held a rally outside the Ole Miss vs. LSU game in protest of Ole Miss dropping  the lyrics and fight song ”Dixie”  from being chanted at their games.

Chancellor Dan Jones had ordered students to stop chanting the homage to the states racist past. After they continued chanting, he ordered the song From Dixie with Love to cease being played.

The Ku Klux Klan came out to rally in lieu of the chant “The South Will Rise Again.”

The medley, combining “Dixie” and “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” was often followed by shouts of “The South shall rise again.”…reports the UPI.

Charise Van Horn of the Examiner.com reports…Chancellor Jones sent an address to the student body of the University of Mississippi. It reads, “We cannot even appear to support those outside our community who advocate a revival of segregation. Consequently, I have asked the band not to play ‘From Dixie with Love’ at upcoming athletics events. The absence of this song will send a clear message that the university is neither facilitating nor indirectly condoning the chant.” The order to stop playing the song, From Dixie with Love, was issued on November 17, 2009 to stop playing the song.(http://www.examiner.com/x-12837-US-Headlines-Examiner~y2009m11d21-Ku-Klux-Klan-protest-at-University-of-Mississippi-over-the-South-will-rise-again-photos-video)

The counter protesters outnumbered the klan 10-1 on Saturday, and their ranks included faculty,staff,students, citizens, and alumnae.

They all read  the student creed aloud, including a call for belief in “the dignity of each person.”

“Our major concern was to show that this is what we stand for as a university,” said Artair Rogers, the Associated Student Body president.

Ole Miss, fueled by the insults from the klan, defeated the game LSU 25-23 in the historic rivalry.

From the looks of things, the klan needed to be on the sideline helping the LSU coach manage his time a lot better than he did, with those last three plays, as he messed up an easy field goal kick with his loopy clock management and ultra-strange play calling at the end.

I mean,LSU fans…didn’t you expect your team to kick a game winning field goal with that last play, rather than the one they ran to lose the game? …Seemed to me to be a pretty easy play to call, and you would have won that game.

I think, as I have been pondering that play all night,…maybe, just maybe, the LSU coach did not want to actually win the game, as it would have been celebrated as a win for the Klan, instead of what it would have been, just a win against Ole Miss.

Who knows, but that had to be the case, because that call was just as bad as the one coach Bill Belicheck made last week, to lose the game against Indy and Peyton Manning….it had to be something like that!

The Klan will never learn.They always support the losing side, and the failed causes like racism and the defeated and humiliated Confederacy that their ancestors supported with their lives.

Many of their ancestors did foolishly in their futile attempt to preserve slavery here in America, and if the scorched earth of General Sherman’s march did not convince them, them they all are truly ignorant and insane.

I watched this game between these two great institutions that at one time denied black players a chance to compete on their teams,…but all that is in the past.

Someone needs to let the klan know that.

The Grand Dragon of the Klan Shane Tate stated that …”We aren’t coming there to cause problems or cause trouble. Trouble has already been caused by a handful at Ole Miss, including the black student body president, who wants to shape Ole Miss into yet another liberal sodomite college.”

What is a sodomite college…together these words mean nothing!…I find this statement to be whimsical and nonsensical, much like gibberish.

Gibberish sounds like a fair  description of the Klan.

Por muito tempo a região do cerrado brasileiro foi considerada inadequada para a agropecuária. Mas a pesquisa científica, aliada a políticas públicas para o desenvolvimento nacional, demonstrou a viabilidade e a vocação econômica do ecossistema.

I don’t do this as a major [my love is computers] or anything. I haven’t went to school for it; I taught myself. I know I’m still a novice and everything, I don’t need anyone to tell me that. So now that I know this slideshow for WordPress actually works. I can add more to it. I think is the safest way and easiest way to show my designs. If you would like to see my whole collection of designs, just click here. You might see a lot of Kurosaki Ichigo ones,Yoko ones, and Code Geass ones its because I’m a Bleach, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and Code Geass  fan.

Der Kölner Dom (offizieller Name ‘Hohe Domkirche St. Peter und Maria’) ist eine römisch-katholische Kirche in Köln und die Kathedrale des Erzbistums Köln. Die Kirchenpatrone sind Simon Petrus und Maria, die Mutter Jesu.

Der Kölner Dom ist mit 157,38 m Höhe nach dem Ulmer Münster das zweithöchste Kirchengebäude Europas sowie das dritthöchste der Welt.

Der Kölner Dom ist die weltweit drittgrößte Kathedrale im gotischen Baustil (nach der Kathedrale von Sevilla und dem Mailänder Dom). Der Bau des Kölner Dom’s wurde im Mittelalter begonnen (Gotik), jedoch nach jahrhundertelangem Baustopp erst im 19. Jahrhundert vollendet (Neugotik).

Der Kölner Dom wurde 1996 in die Liste des Weltkulturerbes aufgenommen. Die riesige Fläche der Westfassade mitsamt den beiden Türmen von über 7.100 m² ist bis heute nirgendwo übertroffen worden.

Von 1880 bis 1884 war er das höchste Gebäude der Welt. Er ist zudem die populärste Sehenswürdigkeit Deutschlands: 2001 wurden fünf Millionen, 2004 sechs Millionen Besucher aus aller Welt gezählt. Im Jahr 2005 besuchte Papst Benedikt XVI. anlässlich des Weltjugendtages 2005 den Dom.

Gov. Sarah Palin is featured on the cover of Newsweek Magazine this week, prompting controversy for the picture the magazine selected.

Palin was featured as the cover story “She's One of the Folks”, which highlighted Palin's “Joe Six-Pack” appeal, but questioned its relevancy to her VP candidacy. The article cited her interview with Katie Couric as a sign that she piques the interest of voters due to her common appeal.

The cover photo is a very close-up picture, which drew controversy because many people say that a close-up picture of a woman is meant to be unflattering.

In addition, the last time her running mate Sen. John McCain's opponent Sen. Barack Obama was featured on Newsweek, it appeared as if he was adorned with a halo, claiming that Newsweek has a left-wing slant that supports Obama.
