Bush Booed in Visit to Martin Luther King's Grave
35 minutes ago

ATLANTA (Reuters) - Several hundred protesters loudly booed President Bush on Thursday as he laid a wreath at the grave of Martin Luther King on the anniversary of the civil rights leader's birth.

"Bush go home" and "peace not war" the protesters shouted from behind a barrier of parked buses across the street from King's grave.

Bush is seeking to improve his standing among black voters before the November presidential election, after winning less than 10 percent of the African-American vote in 2000.

This is a great article, and significant update to the story, but it would be more helpful if you could post it within the original LBN thread on this topic, which can be found here:
