Liberal History Lesson

Of course, the Democrats will simply claim that the racist Democrats all switched to the Republican party. It's easier than saying, "And then all the social conservatives, despite feelings towards minority issues, abandoned the Democratic party in disgust as we became obsessed with abortion, sodomy, and Stalinism."

Just made a post on my blog. It was kinda painful, but I had to get some things off my chest. On the bright side, it has a great link to a site about Islam.

You got that right. Just like they call KKK Byrd an "elder statesman."

They always put the shoe on someone else's foot. Rose colored glasses abound. Can you imagine what would happen if we were like them? The outrage that we even had the balls to go forward would blind them because they are used to our complacency. Just look at the resistance to racial profiling in a time of war and their feigned outrage. Groan!
Byrd is butt a joke!!

showing themselves to be hypocrites.
Today, the dems are so concerned that the genocide that took place over 80 yrs. ago against the Armenians be recognized for what it was but I don't see them even talking about their own sordid past.
That's the dem way though. Lie and cheat and kill and then deny it ever happened and like any typical 8 yr. old, start pointing the finger at other people to get the attention off of yourself.

Good read,Gunny. Funny when the dhimmis are called out on this "inconvenient truth" they QUICKLY try to change the subject. Like when they tried to railroad Lott for comments he had made at Thurmond's birthday,but then to give the former Grand Kleagle a pass? WTF? The idiots NEED for there to be racial divisions in order to maintain their choke-hold on the minority vote. As more people see these clowns for who they TRULY are,that bloc will slowly evaporate.

I agree, KKK Byrd is a pos.

You are SOOOOOOO right. They're just like little children. Red Nanny is too stupid to realize the impact on Turkey/US relations with that Armenian bill, just like the rest of her ilk.

Proving again that libs are children in the world of foreign affairs.

I agree but as long as stupid people are being born, or we continue to let illegals in, dhimmicrats will get votes!

you always put together important info. Your steadfast and unwaivering resistance is inspirational.

Do you ever wonder if maybe some in Congress are suffering from some sort of dementia, Senators Byrd and Kennedy in particular? I mean it only stands to reason that they are subject to age related illness just like the rest of us.

My mom-in-law is 80, a strong, independent woman and now she is being brought down by it. Bless her soul, I would hate to have someone who suffers from it to be in charge of anything important.

is actually about WHY Condoleeza Rice is a Republican. She was once asked by reporters why she was a Republican while the vast majority of African Americans are Democrats. She said it was because of her father. Around the time of the voting rights act, her father went to register to vote. First he tried to register with the local Democrats since it was a Democrat President with a Democrat controlled congress who passed th 1964 Voting Rights Act. When he showed up at the local Dem headquarters, he was denied entry. The move towards racial equality that had scraped up just enough Democrats in the Federal Government to pass had yet to filter down to the local level. So Mr. Rice turned around and went to the Republican office, who were more than happy to have him register with them. And ever since that time he and his daughter have been Republicans.

I think many on the Hill suffer from dementia, alcoholism, drug abuse (no pee tests for them!), and rampant stupidity.

Meant to add, thanks for the kudos.

I've read that before and a great testimony to the GOP.

Something else I thought of, when I first started reading your article.

Back in 2004 as election day was first kicking off, there were thousands of Democrat and Republican lawyers all over the US at the various polling stations to watch for voting inconsistencies. That morning the exit polls came back and virtually guaranteed a Kerry victory. Throughout the day, the red flag was raised by Republicans several times about voter intimidation and fraud. Things such as Republican "get out the vote" vans having their tires slashed, and other Republican campaign offices being shot at, and having various items thrown through the windows. There was even a case in Pennsylvania where somehow there were votes already tallied on the voting machine prior to the polls opening. Each time Republicans brought up an issue, the Democrats dismissed it and throughout the day said that everything was running smoothly. In fact, the Dems stayed silent about any claims of voter intimidation until AFTER Kerry conceeded the election the next morning. They even went through 2 days of soul searching about their political philosophies before starting to make allegations of voter intimidation and issues with the voting machine. And now, they would have us believe that both 2000 and 2004 were STOLEN from them. Their proof to this allegation? Just that they've repeated it over and over enough times that it has become the new "truth"

democrats Robert Byrd (KKK member) & Louis Farrakhan (Black Muslim leader) prove that the democrat party is comprised of racist hatemongers who (while refraining from outwordly showing hate for each other) are willing to "team-up" to destroy our Constitutional Republic - wanting to implement some form of fascism.

Notice also, that when a Black Conservative chooses to make himself or herself known, that pretense of tolerance comes off. Those Conservatives are fair game for almost any racially derrogatory thing that Liberals can think up.

I hate to be the one to throw cold water all over everything, but y'all are also talking about a different GOP from the one we're saddled with now, a bunch of scamnesty supporting, big spending, unprincipled, compromising, valueless cretins.

The current GOP more closely resembles the WHIGs than anything else.

As an ex-Southerner (well, is anyone ever an ex-Southener?), a lot of this is eye-popping. It ought to be required reading by the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Really.

Washington's remarks on parties. That guy was his own sort of genius. There may have been those around him more academically brilliant, Mason, Jefferson and Franklin come to mind. But Washington had clarity of vision, an amazing grounding in how people and life itself worked. For just plain getting things done, he was a giant of the age. An aristocrat, he never lost regard for the worth of every individual, nor sought power. His life is well worth study. Its a crime the way the founding fathers are disrespected by our current PC educators.

I just posted a new essay that actually isn't about politics, RINO Rudy, the fire, guns, or California lunacy.

How about THEM apples?

The problem with the book or at least Gunny's interpretation of it, is that during most of the period the book is looking at -- the 19th and early 20th centuries -- the Republicans were the liberals and the Democrats were the conservatives. That was still pretty much the case through the 1960s in the South. The shift really began to be noticed during the Franklin Roosevelt Administration.

The bigger term to keep in place here is that these
men of the S. were Conservatives.

The Rad. Repubs. were the liberals.

These don't equate well to now but better than the
belief that the Dems now are = Dems then.
For instance what % of blacks were Repubs in 1868
compared to now? How about % for white Southerners?
