RE Bush:
I have a hard time defending him anymore, when he won’t defend himself.
And it’s not about him being “too classy” to engage or anything; there just plain comes a time when you have to stop taking the crap, and starting punching back.
He never did, or does.
I’ll never forget the day Bush handed the speaker gavel to Pelosi: “ The good news is that we can now probably do something about “comprehensive immigration reform” This is burned into my mind, and will never leave it.
Either Bush likes leftists, or he wants them to love him, or most likely BOTH!
But they never do, he occasionally gets weak praise on MSNBC but they and other lib outlets s have so trashed him over and over that Democrats still hate him.
They think the slow response to Katrina was his racism.
See you at the signing!
I’ve often wondered what the Dems have hanging over these peoples’ heads that makes them cooperate with them.
Either that, or it’s good cop/bad cop and we’re just being played over and over again.
” See you at the signing! “
Now it is : “ Perhaps now we can come out for the North American Union “
NOT joking.
Like I said... there just a comes a point where you have to hit them back.
And he just won’t. He hasn’t defended himself at all.
“or were just being played over and over again.”
I’ll take being played for 1,000, Alex.
Makes me sick to my stomach.
Please pass the TUMS : )
Gonna take more than tums. A LOT more than tums.
WHY AFRICAN-AMERICANS SHOULD VOTE REPUBLICAN
Posted by Gary Wickert on Nov. 9, 2014
On April 10, President Barack Obama and two former Democrat presidents, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act and the legacy of former President Lyndon B. Johnson at Johnsons presidential library in Austin. Never one to let facts get in the way or pass up an opportunity to mislead his country, the president cast LBJ and the Democrat Party as champions of civil rights and said that without LBJs push to end legal segregation he himself wouldnt be in the White House.
Racism, political correctness, and a civil rights struggle without end are all seemingly essential to the survival of the Democrat Party. But it was Dwight D. Eisenhower and Republicans who are to be credited with the advance of modern civil rights not LBJ and the Democrats who fought it every step of the way. In fact, the depth of Johnsons strong opposition to civil rights is a convenient fact lost to political history. Honoring the success of civil rights in America and reminding ourselves how far we have come is important and laudable. Rewriting history is not.
The struggle for civil rights in America is storied and well-documented, yet its history is has been completely misunderstood, intentionally distorted, and rewritten for political expediency. You wouldnt know it from watching MSNBC, but throughout history it was been the Republican Party which has spearheaded and championed civil rights for both minorities and women, while the Democrat Party has fought and obstructed efforts to end segregation and discrimination. That over 93% of blacks have allowed themselves to be co-opted by a party that has oppressed them for nearly 150 years is a political mystery even the brightest minds have yet to figure out. Its time to change that. Cut out this article and give it to just one African-American family.
Civil War and Early Civil Rights Movement
In 1870, Hiram Revels and Jeannette Rankin, the first African American man and the first woman to be elected to Congress, were both Republicans. The Republican Party Platform of 1872 provided that “Neither the law nor its administration should admit any discrimination in respect of citizens by reason of race, creed, color or previous condition of servitude.” The Democrat Platform of that same year called for universal amnesty for the South, and the first black Democrat wasnt elected to Congress until 1934.
Horrible things happened in the decades following the Civil War. Republican President Rutherford B. Hayes lost the popular vote in 1876 but struck a deal with Democrats by agreeing to withdraw federal troops from the South. The result was that many freed slaves who tried to vote in the South were beaten, jailed, and lynched by angry Democrats.
Jim Crow laws passed in Democrat states and the Ku Klux Klan, established by Democrats, prevented thousands from registering. The original targets of the Ku Klux Klan were Republicans, both black and white. An estimated 3,446 blacks and 1,297 white Republicans died at the end of KKK ropes from 1882 to 1964. Republicans often led the efforts to pass federal anti-lynching laws but Democrats successfully blocked those bills. The first grand wizard of the KKK was honored at the 1868 Democratic National Convention.
President Hayes supported voting rights and education for young blacks throughout his term, but was opposed by Democrats. In his inaugural address, Republican President James Garfield said, “The elevation of the Negro race from slavery to the full rights of citizenship is the most important political change we have known since the adoption of the Constitution of 1787. No thoughtful man can fail to appreciate its beneficent effect upon our institutions and people.”
The Democrat Party remained racist and still opposed to emancipation, nominating and electing dozens of Ku Klux Klan members, passed Jim Crow laws, and successfully defeated the Republican 1890 Federal Election Bill (Lodge Bill) which would have ensured fair election and guaranteed blacks the right to vote in the South. Almost all blacks and freed slaves voted Republican.
The rest of the history

Oh wow that’s right, I never noticed that. And look at his head, that looks weird as well. When people photoshop they tend to go for a one color background because it’s easier to blend whatever you paste as compared to a complicated background which may have to be moved. Everyone elses head has a complicated background except his. And look at the white hand hanging over his right shoulder, that looks weird as well. Now you got me checking out all his other school pics LOL!
Look close at his right leg and the leg of the kid standing behind him wearing black pants. Something doesn’t seem right with their legs. They look connected.
ON THIS DAY IN 1965 Angry Democrats with Billy Clubs & Dogs Attacked Selma Civil Rights Marchers
Gateway Pundit ^ | 03/07/2015 | staff
On this day in 1965, state police under the command of the Democrat Governor, George Wallace, attacked African-Americans who were demonstrating for voting rights in Selma, Alabama. The rampaging Democrats used billy clubs and tear gas and dogs in their Bloody Sunday assault. A Republican-appointed federal judge, Frank Johnson, soon ruled in favor of the demonstrators, enabling them to complete their march two weeks later.
You know what the history of the BLACK citizens are in this country, And I know what the real “BLACK” history is, but other than a very few “BLACKS” that know what their history was. The rest of the country sure as hell is very ignorant of this history. The only reason this is happening, is that the LIBERALS, SOCIALISTS and COMMUNISTS that are in our colleges have deleted the real black history, and have re-written it to their satisfaction
When I first looked at the photo, without reading either of your comments, my first thought was that something doesn’t look right. I don’t think that is his body at all. Zero is scrawny with NO muscle. Wonder how to track down the people in that photo or to find it in a yearbook or something...
I suppose another way to search on that photo would be to crop out his face, and do a search just for it, to see if results are found for a completely different photo...
