Thanks for your post. I think the role that Teddy Roosevelt played in trying to get rid of Jim Crow some 50 years before the civil rights movement is also of note.

Excellent post!

I have long thought that Ann Coulter should write a book called "Racism" and detail everything the Democrats have done for the past 150 years.

From the article:
"The country is becoming browner and new voters, particularly new immigrant voters, don't respond favorably to (offensive) comments".

Had a Republican said anything about the country becoming "browner", that too would have sparked chages of racism.

The GOP should be bold and run ads with some of these Democrat racist comments. Then contrast that with what Republicans have been doing for DECADES to create opportunities for all people, and creat a colorblind society.

The Democrats keep blacks on their Plantation Porch as Pets, they keep them poor, single mothers, and angry union members and they dangle the "hatred of Republican bait" in front of them. Why blacks and Jews keep voting for Democrats is BEYOND me!!

Another shooting brought to you by the driveby media (DBM). It is not the democrats doing this folks, but the DBM. Shouldn't these kind of articles by subject to McCain-Feingold?

The Republicans have to compete against two parties: The Democrats and the DBM.... Or are the DBM just part of the democRat party?
