Report: McAuliffe, Menendez donor ‘good friends’

RICHMOND — A news report on the South Florida surgeon accused of providing free travel and underage prostitutes to Sen. Robert Menendez describes Terry McAuliffe, the Democrat running for Virginia governor, as one of the doctor’s “good friends.”

PARA-MILITARY DEMOCRATS ON THE MARCH ----A RELIC OF THE CIVIL WAR Carpetbaggers---Northern invaders into the South ----were prominent in politics until 1875, but nearly all left under pressure from the Red Shirts and White Liners -----white paramilitary organizations, then-described as "the military arm of the Democratic Party", working openly to violently overthrow Republican rule, using intimidation and assassination to turn Republicans out of office and suppress freedmen's (former slaves) voting.

The Republican sheriff of Yazoo, Mississippi, received a brief flurry of national attention when insurgent white Democrats took over the county government and forced him to flee. (WIKI)

================================================

FREEPER ACTION MEMO In 1875, Hiram Revels, a Mississippi Republican--and the first African-American US Senator--wrote to then-Pres Ulysses S. Grant denouncing Northern invaders into the post-Civil War south for manipulating the Black vote for personal benefit, and for keeping alive wartime hatreds. (WIKI)

Conservatives need to get others to do the heavy lifting---someone with integrity, like Fla Cong Allen West (not reelected). Cong West needs to do the following:

(1) decry the agitation and intimidation tactics being used by para-military Democrats,

(2) expose Dems using hatemongering for personal gain,

(3) emphasize the illegalities WRT threatening candidates for public office , and,

(4) precipitate investigations into Dems' para-miltary tactics.
