But Salon and msnbc want George Wallace (D) to be a Republican.
KKK - ALL Democrat
White Citizens Council - ALL Democrat
Bull Conner - Democrat
George Wallace - “stood in the school house door” Democrat
Senator Robert Byrd - KKK member and KKK officer - Democrat
Martin Luther King - Republican
Abraham Lincoln - Republican
The only well known Democrat racist to switch parties and become Republican was Lester Maddox. The rest of the racist Democrats from the Jim Crow South STAYED Democrats.
14 Nope. Go read up on what MLK, Jr. had to say about Goldwater in 1964.
22 ... Martin Luther King - Republican
“…I imagine you already know that I am much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic. And yet I am not so opposed to capitalism that I have failed to see its relative merits. It started out with a noble and high motive, viz, to block the trade monopolies of nobles, but like most human system it fall victim to the very thing it was revolting against. So today capitalism has outlived its usefulness. It has brought about a system that takes necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes. …”
from a letter by MLKJr. to his future wife, Coretta Scott, written on 7/18/1952

Liberals will claim that southern racist Democrats became Republicans in the ‘80s thus making the pic “false but accurate”, but one of the writers at National Review did an analysis showing that that was not the case. Basically they stayed Democrats and just died off.
“Oceania was at war with Eurasia and in alliance with Eastasia. In no public or private utterance was it ever admitted that the three powers had at any time been grouped along different lines. Actually, as Winston well knew, it was only four years since Oceania had been at war with Eastasia and in alliance with Eurasia. But that was merely a piece of furtive knowledge, which he happened to possess because his memory was not satisfactorily under control.”
—George Orwell, 1984
Not only that but they think Abraham Lincoln was a Democrat, they think Richard Nixon was impeached but Bill Clinton was not. They know almost nothing of the true history of America and if the left has a little more time to twist the facts there will be no one left alive in this country who knows the truth about anything.
Just yesterday, someone posted an MSNBC article that claimed George Wallace was a Republican. Between the mendacious Left and the stupid Youth, this country is headed for the crapper.
Actually, the democrips have been so successful that the US is already circling the bowl on its way down.
