Where at? I looked (about page, blog, past posts) but I'm not seeing it!
Yes, please continue and point out that over 90% of the Republican in Congresss voted FOR the 1964 Civil Rights Act while less than 80% of Dems did.
Al Gore, Sr. voted NO!
Back in the old days the only party that would register blacks to vote were Republicans in the South.
it's at my site- in the side column- EC's Theme Song- in the side margin....
HC ROCKS!
It SUITS you!!!! Thought it would be "Evil Woman" by ELO (another band with a song of the same name).
The minority exploiting, Commie 'RATS NEVER run "racially tinged ads." Yeah. Right.
LOL!!
that is exactly what I thought! thanks for sharing all this great stuff in my life lately--
YOU ROCK!
Bless you!
Uh, it's TRUE, isn't it?
Sometimes I wonder exactly what some on our side are thinking.
We have an articulate, personable candidate in Micheal Steele.
All this does is take him off-message for a week to answer questions that have nothing to do with the issues of today.
Cardin gets to hide for another precious week while his media buddies breathlessly ask Steele if he denounces this group.
This was silly and useless.
Okay, how about these?
1898 in Wilmington, N.C., where Democrats murdered black Republicans so they could stage, "the nation's only recorded coup d'etat." LINK
Then, in 1922, Democrats in the Senate filibustered a Republican attempt to make lynching a federal crime.
A little later on, FDR nominated former Klansman Hugo Black to the Supreme Court. Contrast that to Republican President Dwight Eisenhower, who actually "sent troops" to ensure that schools in Little Rock, Ark., were desegregated and ordered the "complete desegregation of the Armed Forces."
January 26, 1922 House passes bill authored by U.S. Rep. Leonidas Dyer (R-MO) making lynching a federal crime; Senate Democrats block it with filibuster
August 17, 1937 Republicans organize opposition to former Ku Klux Klansman and Democrat U.S. Senator Hugo Black, appointed to U.S. Supreme Court by FDR; his Klan background was hidden until after confirmation
May 6, 1960 President Dwight Eisenhower signs Republicans’ Civil Rights Act of 1960, overcoming 125-hour, around-the-clock filibuster by 18 Senate Democrats
But what about Al Gores father voting against the civil rights act of 1968....what about LBJ thanking the repubs for passing that civil rights act
I think that was the civil rights act of 1964, but either way, that one is more widely known, I was trying to stick to the lesser known things:)
Here's another thread about this subject.
