Sen. Thurmond Had Illegitimate Daughter [It's Official: Ol' Strom was a Miscegenist]

Strom was one strange, strange old coot. Fathered a daughter by a negress, but ran for president as a segregationist under the Dixiecrat banner.

Parachuted into Normandy, but fondled Hillary Clinton.

Fathered a whole new litter of rug rats in his seventies, then up and ditched that wife [#3? #4?].

What a crazy dude.

PS: This just goes to show that relations [no pun intended] between whites and blacks in the old south were a heck of a lot more complicated than the revisionists would have you believe.

PPS: Does anyone even know how to spell "miscegeny"? It only gets 118 hits at Google, and Merriam-Webster doesn't even list it.

Bump.

[OldFriend]

Loving vs Viginia Supreme cort case concerned miscegenation

[OldFriend]

[Tall_Texan]

Wonder what Spike Lee would say about him now?

[TAP ONLINE]

How do you spell cort???

There is a novel, probably a great one, in Thurmonds life.

Theres certainly no lack of material, or contradiction.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone is working on one right now, something like "All the Kings Men" (Robert Penn Warren), about Huey Long.

[NEWwoman]

You are right, old friend.

MISCEGENATION

\Mis`ce*ge*na"tion\, n. [L. miscere to mix + the
root of genus race.]
A mixing of races; amalgamation, as by intermarriage of black
and white.

[SlickWillard]

I thought the legal term for the Jim Crow crime of sexual relations between the races [especially relations leading to live birth] was "miscegeny," but, if so, "miscegeny" appears to be one of those words that's been whitewashed from the language.

Like I said above, you get 118 hits for it at Google, and Merriam-Webster doesn't even list it.

The most likely explanation is that I'm spelling it wrong, but the alternative explanation is that the thought police have been so busy cleaning it out of the lexicon that, for all intents and purposes, the word no longer exists.

Yah but how long will Danny Willams have to wait to know his daddy?

[Porterville]

Wow, I guess the Democrats had the wrong impression of Strom; I bet They'll feel guilty for what they madeTrent Lott do.... I mean the dems seemed so sincere...

[Moose4]

Here's irony for you: South Carolina just repealed its anti-miscegnation (sp?) laws three or four years ago, via a Constitutional amendment (yes, it was in the SC Constitution somewhere). And while the vote was overwhelming to repeal, there *were* people who voted against it.

Ol' Strom was legendary for his eye for the ladies, so to speak. There's even a story (apocryphal? that he actually boinked a condemed female killer in the back seat of a car on the way to Death Row.

[SlickWillard]

So we're supposed to call him a miscegenationist?

Well, it does rhyme with segregationist.

Maybe that chick who just chewed out the vatican could write a song about it.

The Miscegenationist Segregationist...

It is not all that surprising- High status men have taken advantage of low status women since the beginning of time. Jim Crow was more about maintaining power over blacks than whites not "liking" blacks. So then a sexual relationship between a white man and a black woman would be overlooked- but a serious relationship (such as marriage) threatened the social order under Jim Crow and thus was strictly prohibited. Of course any sort of sexual/romantic relationship between white women and black men were out of the question.

That kid has some clinton in him. I don't care what ANYBODY say.

No doubt about Klink's illegitiment is younger than Strom's,,,,Has klink's nobel prize arrived yet? Is it in the mail? Monica will be so proud, hillary too.

[SlickWillard]

No doubt about Klink's illegitiment is younger than Strom's... Monica will be so proud, hillary too.

The problem is that Monica is known to have murdered at least one unborn child in her womb [by some Australian dude], and it's also known that Gennifer Flowers murdered at least one of Slick's children in her womb. A Slick-Monica bastard never would have seen the light of day.

Say what you want about the old south, but at least they didn't murder their chillun's.

My grandmother was a 15 yr old maid in Detroit when she became pregnant by her 36 yr old married employer in 1931. It happened to white girls in the north, too - not just black girls in the south.
