Yo Speak the Truth Jesse Helms may have been right, but the truth is the Dems opposed the Civil Rights Act in the 60s, (Al Gore's father voted against it), upholding the legacy of the Democrat Party. How is it they not only tolerated, but venerated, someone like Robt. (KKK) Byrd among their ranks? Must be their idea of tolerance.

The truth is all those Dems your mentioned would be republicans today.

Wrong. The Democrats were and still are the party of racism.

Gvan... there's an old saying that it is better to remain quiet and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. You should give this some thought. Robert Byrd died two years ago. He was a Democrat Senator up until his death, and was also a former Klan leader.

Robert Byrd and the other conservative southern democrats mentioned throughout these comments remained democrats [or became independents, as did H.F.Byrd,Jr (who is still living, btw, as is democrat Fritz Hollings)] primarily because it would have been unthinkable for them to ever join “The Party of Lincoln.” These conservative southern democrats did, however, join forces with like-minded conservative republicans to form the Conservative coalition, which nearly always voted in block for its conservative agenda. The common thread of this coalition and the way it thought and voted was conservatism, not democrat or republican.

Wrong. It's the Democrats who keep them on the plantation to garner their votes. And they fall for democrat policies hook, line and sinker. It's time for them to wise up and get off the government hook.

And let's see Robert Byrd was in the senate until 2010 moron. Go away and get an education idiot.
Liberals have leapt on the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Florida to push for the repeal of "stand your ground" laws and to demand tighter gun control. (MSNBC'S Karen Finney blamed "the same people who stymied gun regulation at every point.")

This would be like demanding more funding for the General Services Administration after seeing how its employees blew taxpayer money on a party weekend in Las Vegas.

We don't know the facts yet, but let's assume the conclusion MSNBC is leaping to is accurate: George Zimmerman stalked a small black child and murdered him in cold blood,...
