And I say segregation today segregation tomorrow segregation forever.
Fifty-seven years ago, the newly sworn-in Democrat governor of Alabama, George Wallace, delivered those words in his inaugural address.
In other words: George Wallace, who was a product of a political party that built its political power by supporting every imaginable policy that divided Americans by race, was at it again. Using the momentary pulpit that was a governors inaugural to play the race card again.
Yesterday there was a new George Wallace. He appeared in an Atlanta church to eulogize the late Democratic Congressman John Lewis, Lewis a certifiable hero of the 1960s civil rights movement.
There were, in fact, three former presidents there, including George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. But it was former President Barack Obama and Obama alone who chose to use the literal pulpit to divide by race. Among things said by the former president were these gems:
George Wallace may be gone. But we can witness our federal government sending agents to use tear gas and batons against peaceful demonstrators.
We may no longer have to guess the number of jellybeans in a jar in order to cast a ballot, but even as we sit here, there are those in power, who are doing their darndest to discourage people from voting by closing polling locations and targeting minorities and students with restrictive ID laws and attacking our voting rights with surgical precision even undermining the postal service in the run-up to an election thats going to be dependent on mail-in ballots so people dont get sick.
Say what? First, the protests in question have hardly been peaceful.

Totally disgusted but in no way surprised. UPOS sighting confirmed. Probably John Lewis felt uncomfortable. Or not.
Why would someone use a funeral to score political points?
Who does that?
There’s a time and a place for everything, if you see what I mean.
Who does that........A complete and utter SLIME BALL thats who!!!
How can you possibly undermine the Postal Service?

I think his speech was DARK. Can I say that?
Obama is full of Shiite!
It is quite simple. Obama is a slave of the anti-christ. And he doesnt even know it.
That miserable sonofabitch, Ophonybama, “plays the race cars” every FRicking time he opens his mouth!
George Wallace was a Democrat, in case anyone doesn’t know.
Osama Obama couldn’t completely destroy our Republic while he was president but that doesn’t mean he has stopped trying..head of deep state.
Woodrow Wilson segregated the U.S. Military
Obama segregated the U.S.
Just goes to show that Democrats of all races want us divided.
I say that the filibuster on funding bills needs to stop. No more continuing resolutions.
The minority should not be allowed to drive us into insolvency by not allowing a clear budget process.
That explains why his eyes are brown.
“cars” = “card”
The new postmaster general has cut way back on overtime. Postal workers in post offices used to stay at the end of the day until all the mail was sorted ready to go out the next day. Now they wait until the next morning which slows down the delivery. They also, I believe, just leave behind what they feel like leaving behind. Some days I get no mail at all. A neighbor of mine got no mail at all for several days in a row which was very unusual.
Barack Obama: Ex-president uses John Lewis funeral to play the race card.
And the poverty card, and the crime card, and the lying card, and the Bullshit as usual card . Cant believe anything this SOB says or has ever said. Corrupt Moron.
Let’s face it the late Jon Lewis was a first class race baiter. He fed at the public trough for over 50 years and hated his country the whole time. On the other hand, Herman Cain is by far a true American hero who worked himself to be a real patriot and an inspiration for Americans, black and white.
Anyway, no one likes to mention how Wallace (a racial moderate earlier in his career), dropped the segregation stance, got reelected with majority black support, became no different than Jimmy Carter, and IIRC DJ you once told me he would have been Teddy Kennedy's running mate in 1980(!).
