Nonsense.

No, it isn't. The whole thing was a sop to the Birchers and Jesus Freaks in the far right of the Republican Party. They had been Taft people and never liked or Trusted Ike or most Republicans in Congress. This was also a payoff to them and to Right wing Christian Democrats who went for Ike.

How silly can you get? You must have been hanging out with a strange crowd of ultra-liberal snobs in those days, Swerve.

You don't (didn't) Like Ike?

[catpuppy]

it was a sop by Ike and congress to a bunch of so called Christian Southern Bigots who were ion their way from the John Birch Society Meeting to the Klan Rally. Adding the phrase was a shameful and cowardly act.

I repeat: Nonsense. You somehow find the Republican Party of 1954 filled with Birchers, Klansmen, "Jesus Freaks," Taft People, and Right Wing Christian Democrats. You find that these "Taft People" never liked or trusted Ike or Congressional Republicans.

I break here to ask WHO ELECTED IKE AND THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESS IF NOT REPUBLICANS?
