From the article:
From race issues to feminism to gay rights, liberals have always stood on the forefront of social and moral advance.

Remind me again, what was the party affiliation of those southern governors who blocked school integration? Seems to me that Wallace, Maddux, and perhaps others were all dimocRATs.

Remind me again, what was the party of the senators who filibustered the Civil Rights Act? Al Gore, Sr. and company were all dimocRATs.

And what's the party of the only known former(?) member of the KKK currently serving in the U.S. Senate? Oh yeah, Byrd's a dimocRAT too.

That's sure a strange "forefront of advance".

EVERY point is wrong.

I actually thought the first one was pretty good:

1) Have joy. Sounds simple, but in other words, cheer up. Don’t walk around bitter that conservatives are running this country.

But yeah, most of them were pretty lame.

Not all of point #1 was good:

History is on our side.

Don't forget the Bubba's man Orville Faubus, who called in the National Guard to help the African Americans back to their side of the tracks. Another dimocRAT.
