ALL (yes, ALL) Southern Republicans (10 House and 1 Senate), like their "Dixiecrat" brethren, voted AGAINST the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Sure, LBJ needed Republican votes to pass it, but MORE Democrats than Republicans voted FOR the Civil Rights Act (in BOTH the House AND the Senate). Look it up anywhere.
The South began to shift to "R". Nixon's "Southern Strategy" (1968 - 2008)
The "Party of Lincoln" quit being the "Party of Lincoln" a long, LONG time ago.
Your in idiot. It was democrat controlled congress. More Republican proportionately voted for civil rights than Democrats. And I want you to look at a map of the congressional districts and tell me which are the racist south states because I saw a ton of blue on there. LBJ was a racist too he signed it so blacks would dem. He said: "I'll have those n*ggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years."
I know who Robert Byrd WAS. Unlike many modern-day "conservatives", HE changed his racist ways.
Nixon's "Southern Strategy" has been the GOP playbook since the 60s - Nixon, Reagan, Bush/Cheney/Rove.
Well, it has finally come to its logical conclusion. The modern Republican Party is now essentially the Old South (The Confederacy) and a few sparsely populated areas out west.
He did not change his ways at all, he felt no remorse. You make a straw man arguement. Look at the congressional districts map. You will see a ton of blue in the "racist" south as you call it. Plus. Did you know the one who proposed to set up the confederate flag in South Carolina was a democrat.
...and as we boot these crackpots out off their cozy lttle covens in the next years - they will still be crying "racsist" and "Bush!".....lol!.....(anyone who even mumers and would connotate grave concerns about this Obama Crap Care Bill to being Racist? HAS GOT TO GO!).....we are not being racist but against STUPIDITY!......gosh no wonder the people think the DIMS are now the countrys worst dunces and given their ability to VOTE YES? on 2000+ pages of LiberalLegalEaseMiss-oracles? FRIGHTENING
Let me get this straight. Obama's health care plan will be written by a committee whose Chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress which hasn't read it, signed by a President who 'SMOKES", funded by a 'LYING" Treasury Chief who did not pay his taxes, overseen by a Surgeon General who is obese, and financed by a country that is nearly broke.
little ortie = you and the DIMS are STUPID!........and each day you sit there repeating Obamas = LYING BY OMMISION ..........you embarrass yourself into the utter ~dust!!!......(people have been POILITE and walked away from you and then BUSTED OUT LAUGHING!!!)
Our government is now run by Marxists. They know what they are doing make no mistake. This is the Trojan Horse to convince the unknowing & people who refuse to see what this really means. The government needy only think they are now going to be taken care of. We know this not the real case. Just wait till they only allow us to drive one kind of car and it will no longer provide us a choice to drive big trucks or SUV's. This is what this is all about.
1. Apparently Reid has forgotten that it was the Republicans that abolished slavery. In fact, in the presidential election of 1864, former Union General George B. McClellan ran against Lincoln and vowed to end the war if elected. 2. Reid should acknowledge that there is too much crap in this bill. It's 2,000 pages long!
this is why so may americans are fed up....no faith in wall st., justice system, jounalist, and most of all politicians! very distressing time

"Your in idiot." (LOL)
Can you read what I said?
Democrats - More FOR "votes" (as they had greater numbers)
(Republicans - Higher "%" voting FOR)
It was about REGION (North/South) more than party.
The Dixiecrats are today's Southern Republicans!
