"One of the biggest arguments against the Democratic Party is centered around racism, so we ask the question, are the Democrats racist? Through-out the years, their members/affiliates have made blatant and also subtle racist remarks which the party does not deny (mostly). The interesting part, though, is that their main line of defense is a claim that doesn’t really have any grounds to it. The claim is that the Democratic and Republican parties have at some point switched stances in terms of racism." *Warning: This article was written by me, if posting it is not appropriate let me know and...

As we watch the Confederate flag being brought down in South Carolina (and being brought up by Nancy Pelosi, in a characteristically cynical and underhanded ploy), it’s worth taking a look at the racist history of the Democratic Party. They own that stupid flag, which is why they keep trying to pin it on the Republicans. Courtesy of the great Bill Whittle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wz_0utCrm0Ahhh, facts. Lefties hate those things! Yeah, the Great Party Switch of the 1960s is horsecrap. The Democrats have always been the party of racism. Now they’re just better at lying about it. The Civil War was just...

The long association between the Democrats and the KKK is legendary and documented, but you won’t hear that spoken at a democratic fundraiser because they have “cooked” the books so to speak. People like Orval Faubus, George Wallace, Bull Connor and Sheriff Clark had one thing in common. They were Democrats and racist. Research those names from the 1950s and early 60s and see what you find. Research JFK and LBJ and find out that both voted against Civil Rights legislation in 1957. How about this, research the Voting and Civil Rights act of 64 and 65 and see who...

Today, the President will commemorate the hundreds of people brutally attacked on a bridge in Selma 50 years ago during a peaceful protest for racial equality. But just this week, a billboard was erected within sight of the historic location in memory of a Ku Klux Klan founder Nathan Bedford Forrest. It has prompted outrage in the Alabama city as many claim it demonstrates underlying racial tensions that linger half a century after the march. The sign, bearing a portrait of Forrest on horseback and a Confederate flag, stands at the foot of Edmund Pettus Bridge - which is named...

“For more than 200 years, our party has led the fight for civil rights, health care, Social Security, workers’ rights, and women’s rights.” — from a history of the Democratic Party, on DNC Web site. A number of readers asked about this brief (20 paragraphs or so) history of the Democratic party, especially the first sentence. It certainly appears to ignore the party’s long and troubled history with race, literally leaping from the “200 years” phrase to 1920, when the women’s suffrage amendment was enacted. The Web history mentions the leadership of President Woodrow Wilson in helping pass the 19th...

1936 All Over Again By: Thomas · Section: Election 2004 Let us not mince words: The Democrats have gone mildly mad.

Lies My Teacher Told Me We never learned the truth about this. For more, visit www.mngop.com/brc click into critical thinking and read the many articles. January 07, 2003: The Ku Klux Klan wanted to kill Republicans Note: History has doucumented the Ku Klux Klan platform calling for the murders of the Negro and the Republicans. We work in the spirit of courages founders. We owe it to the spirit of a lot of great people in our party to work boldly towards the elimination of hate. I am proud to be a Republican and walk in the spirit of God...
