The Hill ^ | 4/10/14 | Justin Sink

Texans like to talk all the time about how big Texas is, and how if you´re driving from the bottom of Texas to Canada, then you´re spending half of your time just getting through the state itself. So is that true? It´s pretty close. Texas really is gigantic. Redditor Armeleon put together a map that gives you a good idea of the massive size of Texas. Texas spans about 800 miles from north to south. Everything seen in red on the map is closer than 791 miles to Texas (the longest straight-line distance in Texas from north to south is

For once 0blahblah is right...

LBJ: I’ll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.
Written by Allen West on March 20, 2014

Republican President Eisenhower ordered troops to enforce school desegregation. Republican Senator Everett Dirksen enabled the 1964 civil rights legislation to pass, in opposition to Democrat Senators Robert Byrd (KKK Grand Wizard) and Al Gore, Sr.

As a matter of fact, it was Democrat President Lyndon Baines Johnson who stated, “I’ll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years” as he confided with two like-minded governors on Air Force One regarding his underlying intentions for the “Great Society” programs.

Yep... LBJ’s “Great Society” program.....(from Wikipedia)

Two main goals of the Great Society social reforms were the elimination of poverty and racial injustice.

New major spending programs that addressed education, medical care, urban problems, and transportation were launched during this period. The Great Society in scope and sweep resembled the New Deal domestic agenda of Franklin D. Roosevelt.

******
Expanding the affirmative action and welfare programs to keep peeps in their place. 0’s expanded the program even further. So, he’s right about that.

the difference between LBJ and O, besides from that of basic citizenship and loyalties, is that LBJ was largely successful in selling and implementing his desired new programs...whereas O’s new programs have all been failing miserably and will be revoked (or repaired) just as soon as he is out of office

He’s actually not talking about the promises of Lyndon B. Johnson.

He’s talking about the promise of Long Blow J-bs to certain of his supporters.

I love the way revisionists are now trying to rehabilitate the legacy of LBJ——easily the vilest, crudest, most corrupt and disgusting SOBs ever to occupy the WH.

He’s correct. On entitlements. On corruption. On dealing with your political enemies. On spending us into destruction.

You sure have, Obamadork.

Johnson was corrupt, venal, and a crook,and would be vending hot dogs on a street corner save for politics - the trade with no standards.

You’re corrupt, venal, and a crook, and just could possibly barely qualify to vend street hot dogs on a corner. Heck, you were so stupid, it took quotas to even raise you to the cretinistic politician level.

Great match, dork.

“I’ll have those n*ggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.”


That’s the quote that came to my mind as well. (Sigh)

It’s quite likely he did, but there is no doubt that he had Bobby whacked. LBJ hated Bobby’s guts with a passion.

yes, and I still want to know why George H. Bush was standing outside the school book depository, in Texas, when JFK was murdered?!?
