1. NYC had made the most egregious of errors in electing Communist/Progressive/Democrat Bill DeBlasio as mayor of this great city. So, there really is no element of surprise when DeBlasio tapped Brooklyn pastor Reverend Fred Lucas Jr., who serves as the chaplain to the Department of Sanitation, to provide the invocation at the inauguration ceremony.
2. The Reverend's speech was peppered with numerous inappropriate racial references, such as End the civil wars and usher in a new Reconstruction era..." and words used were shackles, plantation, crooked, and emancipation proclamation."
The reverend referred to New York City as "the plantation called New York City."
3. But, heck, what would one expect, after all Communist/Progressive/Democrat DeBlasio is an avowed exponent of the Marxist 'religious' perspective called "Liberation Theology."
a. "... "Bill de Blasio says he doesn't believe in churches -- and he doesn't believe in God either," reports the NY Daily News.
De Blasio told reporters in the Bronx, "Im not affiliated with any particular church. I do consider myself a spiritual person." He continued, "As Ive said many times, I was very influenced by liberation theology, by Christian liberation theology in the work I did after college and after graduate school."

He means when he was in Nicaragua, working with the Sandinistas.
4. Coincidentally, Communist/Progressive/Democrat DeBlasio is known as New York's Obama....and Obama had the same kind of racialist banter at his inauguration.
a "Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around ... when yellow will be mellow ... when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen."
Reverend Joseph Lowry, at Obama Inauguration
Me...I'm as mellow as I can be.
5. But there is a ray of sunlight, as many Liberals found that divisionist polemics hard to stomach:
a." Personally, I am very versed in the income inequalities that exist today. I am also versed in the issues that exhist in New York City. There was no need for Reverend Lucas to use this opportunity to make erroneous references to slavery, with regards to the present conditions of New York City. I'm not going to tolerate this behavior from Sarah Palin or Phil Roberston, so i'm certainly not going to tolerate it from Reverend Lucas. "

b. I am a proud liberal, but the speakers opening DeBlasio's inaugural are embarrassing. "The Plantation of NYC"......F**K OFF!

7. Of course, there were examples of boilerplate Liberalism, too...not just from the podium:

Deal wit it, hombre. You don't like it? Then move back home to Europe where you came from. You European people are illegal aliens here anyway." Preacher: New York City is a 'plantation' [VIDEO] | The Daily Caller
And this is exactly the kind of sentiment the DeBlasio-Lucas Axis was meant to bring out.
At least he left the 'mellow' folks alone!
6. Just more of this: De Blasio was roundly criticized back in November when Harry Belafonte, the civil rights leader and actor who was also a de Blasio surrogate, compared the libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch to the Ku Klux Klan.

Throughout history there have been folks who sought to divide people in order to accrue power.....
....they're called tyrants.
I suspect that the brighter Liberals are shaking their heads, muttering 'What have we done...."
The rest of the nation knows what you've done.
