"Every man that wanted the privilege of whipping another man to make him work for nothing, and pay him with lashes on his naked back, was a Democrat. Every man that raised bloodhounds to pursue human beings was a Democrat. Every man that cursed Abraham Lincoln because he issued the Emancipation Proclamation was a Democrat." - Robert Ingersoll, 1876.
Short of WWII, can someone tell me when Democrats have been on the RIGHT side of history?
And they weren't *totally* in the right there. FDR and company sent at least one shipload of Jews trying to escape the Nazis back to Europe. In each of the great moral/ethical questions of our nation's history, the Democratic Party could be counted on to stand foursquare on the wrong side, every time...
