“I don’t know where to start.”

You don’t have to. This is our new urban reality, and it can only be ignored by our “leaders” for so long.

So much for “The Great Society.” Thank you, LBJ.

just for the record and a lesson to us all...

quite a few GOP supported the following programs that are considered the Great Society effort:

Civil Rights Acts and Voting Rights Act...these get applause from many here and Glenn Beck and Hannity...I think they opened Pandoras Box on many many issues we still get hammered by now

War on Poverty

Education

Medicare

Medicaid

All those had minor to substantial GOP support..so while I enjoy kicking around corrupted lefty LBJ as much as the next guy ...he could not have done all he did without GOP help. Between conservative GOP and Dixiecrat Dems voting nay he would have been out of gas without moderate and lib GOP support...sound familiar?
