And Now the Astonishing History of Democrat Racism

[Mr. Jeeves]

Remember, none of this matters in Democrat mythology, because the way they tell the story the Dixecrats all left the Democratic Party to become Republicans. Therefore, all the KKK legacy and racist past went with them, and the Republican Party accepted all of that with open arms.

Get with the program, man! :)

I believe the actress Charlize Theron has occasionally been called "African American" as a bit of humor -- she was born in South Africa -- but people get really upset about it. And when I say "people", I mean blacks.

Ask a Democrat to “name a Dixiecrat”. The only name they will come up with is Strom Thurmond. Then you can point out that he was the first southern Senator to hire a black person (1971). He was a Republican by that time.

As governor of California, Ronald Reagan appointed more Blacks to positions of authority than all his predecessors combined.

Some more fodder for your list from Wilson’s presidency:
“During his first term in office, the House passed a law making racial intermarriage a felony in the District of Columbia. His new Postmaster General also ordered that his Washington offices be segregated, with the Treasury and Navy soon doing the same.”

Those factoids are from the 2005 Republican Freedom Calendar, which Michael Zak wrote for the House Policy Committee. They are drawn from his book Back to Basics for the Republican Party. See www.grandoldpartisan.com and www.republicanbasics.com for more information.

Thanks for the List. It helped me with my new bumper sticker:

“Democrats: Enslaving Americans, One Way or Another, Since 1792!”

This is an outstanding list of accomplishments of Republicans. I’m still trying to figure out what point in time the Dim-o-crats became the good guys and the Republicans become the racists?
