Here's Republican Governor George Wallace standing in a doorway at the University of Alabama making sure that no black students will get in.

And here is Republican Governor Lester Maddox and his son about to teach this black man not to walk in front of his restaurant again.

And here is Republican Governor Orval Faubus making sure that no blacks are admitted to the white high school in Little Rock.

It would take the forceful action of Democrat President Dwight Eisenhower to ensure that Arkansas schools would be integrated.

Get your facts right before you post. Wekipida reported that Faubus, Maddox, and Wallace were democrats. Eisenhower was a Reublican.

You have (obviously) got the parties mixed up ... I presume that you did so deliberately.

I also presume that a great many folks today would not know that George Wallace, Lester Maddox, and Orval Faubus were all democRats ... and Faubus, at least, was an outright communist.

Nor would those folks know that Ike was a Republican ...

After all, "everybody knows" that democRats are "for" the poor, downtrodden, and racial minorities ... and that Republicans are "for" rich white folks who exploit the "working class" and starve old folks.

Brilliant! I see we have morons even here at FR that can’t see sarcasm in front of them.

I don’t know who I feel sorry for more.
