Have any of you heard of Frances Rice and her efforts to "shed the light of truth on the racist past and failed socialism of the Democratic Party"? Sounds like a worthwhile effort to me.
What about their racist present?
“Hard working Americans, white Americans” - Hillary Rodham Clinton
See also exit poll results by race.
Dems are currently extremely racist.
Democrat Hugo Black, SCJ appointed by FDR, a catholic hating grand poobah of the KKK, single handedly turned the 1st amendment upside down in order to keep (catholic) school kids from taking the bus to school.
I had not heard of her but its about time someone did this.
There are lots of people who don’t know that the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr was a Republican.
And historical racism in the Democratic Party is news to anybody ?
I think it’s common knowledge that Civil Rights legislation in the 50’s and 60’s was championed by Repub senators and fillibustered by the southern block. Ever heard of James Eastland ? He was a Democrat.
This really isn’t news folks.
I cover Black with Eastland. Disgusting bigot.
You are correct, this is not news, but it is news to me in some ways and I’ll bet it would be news to a lot of people if it were to get some play in the media.
This sort of ‘stuff’ just may be needed at some point in time between now and November and the Republican are going to be branded with racism, over and over again.
The KKK was the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party

The KKK in the Supreme Court
That Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black was in the Ku Klux Klan is well-known to historians. However, according to documents released by the FBI in February 2000; Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren, who led the investigation of the Kennedy Assassination, was a leader of in the Ku Klux Klan.”Chief Justice [Earl] Warren was the leader of a small local Klan group for several years...” This is an astonishing development with far-reaching implications. Chief Justice Warren headed the long-discredited Warren Commission investigation into the assassination of Catholic President John F. Kennedy. Days before the murder, the FBI received word that a plot to kill Kennedy in Dallas involved elements of the Ku Klux Klan.
“Bureau files indicate that according to The Man from Independence, by Jonathan Daniels, former President Truman paid a $10 membership fee to the Klan in 1924 when he was running for county judge. On this occasion he was asked to pledge that he would not hire Catholics. He replied that he would not make such a pledge and was reported to have taken his $10 membership fee back.”
As for Justice Hugo Black: “The September, 1941, issue of “Current Biography” indicates Justice Black was a member of the Robert E. Lee Klan Number 1, Invisible Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, from September 11, 1923, until July 9, 1925....Black reportedly resigned on the eve of his campaign for the democratic nomination for United States senator. He was reportedly welcomed back into the Klan and made a life member on September 2, 1926. Black has publicly admitted Klan membership.”
Hugo Black was appointed to the Supreme Court by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a fellow Scottish Rite freemason.
This post (<-click), from a thread about school prayer, explains how Democrat Justice Black, a "former" Klansman, abused judicial power by limiting our religious freedoms.
Did he ever admit to completely screwing up the Bill Of Rights?
Nice link/post. Thank you.
Why was this reposted again ? MLK, Jr. was NOT a Republican, at least not after the period just prior to the 1960 Presidential election. He was a big government liberal who led Blacks to 90% numbers into the Democrat party.

Because, madam, you’re posting and indeed, proliferating something that is a blatant falsehood. Judging by your over-the-top hysterical reaction, you apparently put emotion before facts. You need to calm down, grow up and get informed.
OK, what about you just go away. There is no reason for you to post to this thread, you are not the web police, so get a life.
You think I’m over the top, invite me over to your house!
You obviously are a psychologically unbalanced troll who needs to be taught some manners on how to speak to others. I will see fit to correct you or anyone else posting debunked lies, especially ones that will bring discredit to this website, you got it ? You can’t deal with it, there’s the door.
This is how to have a discussion:
Me: Why was this reposted again ? MLK, Jr. was NOT a Republican, at least not after the period just prior to the 1960 Presidential election. He was a big government liberal who led Blacks to 90% numbers into the Democrat party.

You: I’m sorry, I’ve seen this written before and thought it was correct. I’ll take a look at your links.
Me: No, unfortunately it’s not correct. A lot of people would like to believe MLK was a Republican, but there is no evidence beginning with 1960 that he was aligned with any other group but the far-left of the Democrat party. Indeed, he called Conservative Republicans vile things and said the election of Barry Goldwater would aid the cause of racism, disregarding the fact that Goldwater was pro-civil rights (but happened to oppose the CRA because it was overreaching).
You: I did not know that.
Me: There’s no question the Democrat party is the one with the history of institutional racism and oppression, but I personally cannot fathom why intelligent people would continue to repeat a falsehood that MLK, who believed in the national Democrat party’s goal of big government solutions to problems, ones that helped to speed up the disintegration of the Black family, be identified with on billboards the Republican party. MLK’s own father prominently endorsed the Democrats beginning in 1960 and stood with the racist Jimmy Carter in his Presidential campaign. I think we’d be better off broadcasting factual information such as “Booker T. Washington/Frederick Douglass were Republicans” or: “Not until 2004 did Democrats elect a Black man to the Senate. The Republicans were doing that in the 1870s.” Y’know, facts.
You: I agree.
That’s how you have a conversation. Have a nice day.
No, this needs to be discussed in person, PM your address, bully.
Besides, it is correct that MLK was a Republican prior to the 1960’s...so the article is on the money.
Your posts are a load of codswallop. I’m going to need a bigger wheelbarrow, but please keep posting.
By the way, the only lesson I need to learn is “Never wrestle with a pig, you just get dirty and the pig enjoys it.”
