Revulsion at this Democrat savagery contributed to the GOP's landslide victory in the mid-term elections that November.

Well that plus letting all the Union soldiers vote.

Not much has changed.

And do you think they teach the real reason for having to pass the civil rights laws in any public high school today?

More information. It begins with the second item. The first item was what happened less than ten years later.

	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks Michael Zak. On this day in 1866, a mob of Democrats, led by the Democrat sheriff, attacked the racially-integrated state convention of the Louisiana Republican Party, meeting in New Orleans. Democrats killed 40 delegates, all African-Americans, and wounded at least 150. When the survivors appealed to the Democrat President, Andrew Johnson, for protection, he blamed the violence on Republicans for holding the convention. Revulsion at this Democrat savagery contributed to the GOP's landslide victory in the mid-term elections that November. Obama will be reelected in 2012, regardless of his opponent or running mate. Just adding to the catalog, not sending a general distribution. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
