I searched to see if this had been previously posted, but couldn't find anything. Although it is 2 years old, it is timely in its impact. . .

the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S’s: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.

This video really needs to be on this thread:

Thank you. I am going to take these facts and try to make a little “quiz” for libs.

There are some people on FR that say that MLK was a womanizing Communist.

While there were only a few Republican Senators and Congressmen from the south none of them voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1965

How did all of this get turned around? Its like a wave of evil swept through the country and took for itself a portion of souls who seem so brainwashed. Of course I’m sure they think the same of us. Being the grand old party .. surely it wasn’t us who have changed.

Trouble is that the folks that should read this article do not read Free Republic and could not understand this truth at all.

This has been posted a million times. King may have been registered as a Republican but he was 100% leftist in his ideology. By the late 1960s he was openly supporting the Communist Vietcong. It wasn't uncommon in the 1950s for leftists to be registered as Republicans or for hardcore conservatives to be registered as Democrats.

The fact that King was supposedly registered as a Republican does not mean in any way that he was a believer in the GOP philosophy of free enterprise, limited government, individual rights and intitiative, strong national defense, anti-communism, and so forth. He didn't support any of those things.

This has been reposted repeatedly. The headline has been debunked as unproven or misleading (and certainly erroneous definitively starting in 1960).

These were the links to the discussions on the piece:
