I noticed that when gay rights/ marriage bs was being compared to Civil Rights Movement of the 50's and 60's,the black community did something curious.....they went silent.

Not really. Many black leaders -- mainly black pastors -- took offense to this comparison, and were very vocal. One black pastor in Georgia went so far to say that if the KKK were to come out against gay marriage, he'd ride with them on that issue. I kid you not! That is serious trouble for the Demwads.

"Not really. Many black leaders -- mainly black pastors -- took offense to this comparison, and were very vocal."

Eventually, a couple of days after that comparision was being bandied about, they did raise hell. I was suggesting the black community was shocked, and baffled by the Democrats use of the comparision.

You are correct how it ended up, and I did catch that comment about riding with the KKK. What African Americans seem to be realizing is a Liberal can't change his or her mind, because their ego won't allow the admission of a mistake.

Have a great weekend.
