As Fat Ted Kennedy, swimmer/murderer, tries to pass the Kennedy baton to Obama America, I want to point out that the Kennedys tapped MLK Jr.’s phone calls.
Just something some people seem to have forgotten after seeing all of those kitchy blankets with the pictures of JFK and RFK surrounding MLK.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
Harriet Tubman, the other civil rights icon, was also a Republican.
It’s a funny thing about history. I lived through the MLK era and I didn’t even remember that he was such a hero to the Republicans, or most of the Dems either. Too radical. I know McCain voted against making MLK’s birthday a national holiday, but he is a maverick.
I hope NBRA can get a huge voice in the POTUS election.
Let Obama mites call these folks racists. (snicker)
Bump the NBRA
In 1948, my grand dad moved to Texas where he registered to vote as a Republican. He was strongly discouraged by the local democrat controlled Board of Elections.
My grand dad asked: “Why? Don’t you have any Republicans in this county?”
He was told: “Oh we have some Republicans here. It is just that you would be the only white Republican.” (He registered Republican anyway, just to spite these bastards.)
Black conservatives are some of the most courageous citizens in our beloved nation. I don’t feel I need to expound upon that statement, because every one of us knows that failure to follow “the company line” results in individuals being ostracized and they are bucking a deeply ingrained “company line”.
I pray that our Heavenly Father blesses them with an abundance of His Grace as they attempt to help all Americans, including and especially other black Americans, to improve their lives through conservative principles.
