Thats equally as wrong as ANYBODY who was against the civil rights laws. I was pointing out how stupid it is for the NAACP to compare Republicans to the Taliban, and to call us racist.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Barry was against the civil rights legislation because at that time, it was a nearly unprecedented expansion of the Federal government regulation of 'interstate commerce": effectively making anything and everything interstate commerce, and he oppsed it because the legislation was in his view, properly a matter for the States to decide, not Washington.

What is the 'that' in your post 'Thats equally as wrong ...'? Opposition to the civil rights legislation? Barry's reasons? Using Barry's opposition as a response to claims that Republicans were the party of civil rights?

And we know that the States had a wonderful record in that regard, right?

I've gotta take this as sarcastic, even if you didn't 'close the html'.

Unfortunately, arguing 'States' rights' as a reason for opposing Federal government expansion opens up the argument that 'you'd be in favor of Jim Crow laws'. That's one reason I included Barry's argument that the civil rights laws were unconstitutional as regulating intrastate commerce.

But it was constitutional to use States rights to make sure that boots were always kept on my fathers necks.

Were do you get your history from? The DNC!

Grant was from the north. Lived in IL.& WI. His wife was from the south and grew up in a slave owning family.
One of the things she couldn’t get over when she first came with him to live up north.
Was how it took less Blacks to do work up here.

No, I was saying that it was wrong for anybody to be against the civil rights legislation.

The whole point of this post however, is that I am EXTREMLEY SICK of the NAACP calling the republican party racest, and making those extreme gerneralizations when they are not true. The fact of the matter is, that most blacks vote democrat primarley because they have heard these lies.
