[Glenn Quagmire]

And Chris Christie is a main stream conservative.....yeah, I'm the one with the perception problem.

Skewed polls agrees with you and President Romney.

Quag's....why the edit to your original post???

.....research bite you in the ass again?

So in 1964 the Jim Crow laws were created? That is what you're saying?

No. The Jim Crow laws were created BEFORE that - so was separate but equal. IT was AFTER 1964 that those damned southern democrats became the "base" of the Republican party. Ask Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond how that worked. You like to point to Byrd, but at least he recanted AS a democrat. Where did Strom and Jesse recant again?

That's great.....you pointed out that it was southern dems then who did create the anti-negro voting laws by pointing out that after 64, some....some went GOP some 80 to 100 years later.
thank you.

You better pick Tree and his little buddy Quag's off the floor.

Wow man.,..denial ain't just a river in Egypt. You bet the southern democrats in the 40's and 50's were racist. You like to point to Robert Byrd, who despite his racist past had the balls to stay a democrat, but ignore that a LARGE number of 50's democrats became 60's republicans. I grew up in the south. You know who spoke out loudest against "forced bussing"? It wasn't the democrats. Fast forward to the 80's...who was out there talking about "states rights" (you might want to google that phrase).....none other than God...er...Reagan himself.

What he does not understand or is unwilling to accept is that the Southern Democrats who defected to the Radical Republicans of the the time did so because they were unable to maintain their segregationist policies. The Southern Democrats did everything possible to thwart the Northern Democrats and Northern Republicans.


The names Republican and Democrat in today's vernacular have nothing to do with the use of the terms in the early 1960's and before.


Authors such as Kevin Williamson and others in the current day republican party have been trying to revise history to show that the republican party has been a long time friend of minorities. Given the GOP showing among non-white and younger voters it is no surprise that they are trying this.

Furthermore, regardless of what history shows, it is quite evident by the parties stances in todays world that if you are not a white affluent male, the GOP is not interested in your rights, they want your vote but they are not interested in your rights.

LOL....that is the DNC stance today Bub......explain then why the Blacks are freaking that the DNC is courting the Latino vote more than the Blacks?

You need proof or are you that stupid?

Wow man, denial is a river that runs through Kansas City. To this day southern democrats, democrats in general, continue to be racist, they didn't magically disappear in the 1960's.

Take yourself as an example,

I got banned from a site I was on for 10 years because I said what the poster wouldn't....That ni....s were the cause of all the problems. That was followed by the "I'm not a racist". I grew up in Florida when it was called "forced bussing".

You can't help it though, it's the way you were raised. 121 years of racist indoctrination is pretty hard to hind, dispite your best efforts to pretend otherwise. If you really want to know who spoke out the loudest against "forced bussing", just reference your democrat southern family roots.

No knot...they didn't disappear. They are called "republicans". And yep...I used the N word - want to know why? When facing a racist on a message board and using the word that they are avoiding, you'll get them going on the "I'm not a racist". BTW - yes I did grow up in Florida. Father and grandfather were from Virginia/North Carolina. Southern all the way. And both democrats. You know one word I never heard from either of them? The one you think I've been "indoctrinated" with. If I used that word as a kid, I'd get smacked across the mouth. The republican families though....

 

[Ms Tree]

Speaking of republicans and their popularity among minorities, perhaps situations like this are something they may want to look into, And this was only in 2011.


S.C. flys Confederate flag


The irony is that Haley is the child of Indian Sikh's Go figure.


I guess if it's OK for the South, N.C. can do it too.


N.C. Flys Confederate flag.


Mike Huckabee said it is a state issue. Granted, I agree with him regarding the law but I find it interesting that he did not comment on the history of the flag, what it represents to people and that idea of flying it is in poor taste to put it mildly.


Huckabee


While this is not a state issue as much as a legal one, the Son's of the Confederacy wanted to have have a state license plate with the stars and bars on it. Pretty sure they did not vote for Obama in 2012.


FL Lisence Plate

These are just a few examples of what might explain the issues that the GOP is having with minorities. The issues they are having with women is a separate issue but also entertaining what with all the magic vaginas and legitimate rape. Seems the GOP has tried to scale back on the religious arguments regarding marriage equality but the arguments that Scalia, Roberts and Clements made regarding DOMA were laughable at best. I would have expected better from legal scholars.

Your argument is lame.......all the way.

 

[SparrowHawk]

Jim Crow and Separate but Equal are the lost gist laws ever hoisted on minorities by the dogooder conservatives.

Because of this laws something had to be done to try and balance the scales a nite to reverse centuries of oppression.

AHH The arrogance of Liberalism. Affirmative Action PROVES liberals don't think blacks are equal to whites. A law like AA implies by its very existence that White Liberals don't think blacks can "Cut It" without some type of "Help" from their holier than thou elitist perch.

It's bogus assumption that says that ANY minority needs "Help". They need to be left alone. I mean after-all take a look at the Lakota reservation to see the end result of 100+ years of "Help".

Tell me then...why did the south, that was solidly democratic prior to 1964 suddenly start electing republicans? Did the racist liberals just stay home because they were beside themselves since they had to share a water fountain with those Niggrahs?

Ah the ignorance of conservatism. Pass a law and all past wrongs vanish into thin air.


Are you of the belief that you can reverse the effects of Jim Crow, Separate but Equal, back of the bus, segregated schools, food counters, jobs, water fountains, slavery, lynchings, bigotry and hatred by just saying it's illegal?


DFW changed the posted speed limit on 360 from 65 to 60 about 10 plus years ago and do you think everyone drives 60? Seriously?


I am not saying AA was or is the right answer but so far every time this issue comes up and you trot out the same old argument you have yet to provide any idea as to how you would have leveled the playing field. So how do you reverse 300 some odd years of hatred and bias?


White male property owners have had affirmative action for centuries. They have pitched a fit every single time someone else was introduced into their once exclusive club. Sometime pay back is a b!tch and the pendulum swings too far in the other direction. Perhaps this would be something to keep in mind for the future.

 

[KCFlyer]

Well Tree....I was a victim of affirmative action, and I can't say that I agreed with it fully. Yes, a playing field needed to be leveled. But here's the thing...way back in the 1980's, I used to work for EDS. I did bank conversions, specializing in loans. A lot of S&L's were failing in Texas back then, and the Resolution Trust Corporation was looking for people to go into banks and - convert the loans that they wanted to keep. They were a federal agency, so the job was awarded on a point system. Were you a minority? 5 points. Were you a woman? 5 points. Were you a veteran? 5 points. Were you disabled? 5 points. So if I was going up a female black vet, she was a the starting line with 15 points to my zero. Then it came down to our resumes. If mine was awarded 15 points and hers 1 point, she got the job, even though my resume as "15 times" better than hers. What's a better way? I'd much prefer educational grants instead of putting someone ahead of a better qualified person based on a points system. And I'm a liberal.
